    Summary

    Parentified children are not given the time, care, love, emotional support, grounding, or security needed to develop and thrive. Without a role model, they are deprived of the opportunity to learn through observation and guardianship. For the most part, they are expected to keep it together and never show signs of distress. If they were to be needy or vulnerable, they are either ignored or sometimes punished. Eventually, they internalize the message that having needs and desires is not acceptable. They become ashamed of their vulnerabilities, and eventually, emotional numbness and self-denial become their second nature

    Summary

    It's been eighteen months since Peter had seen or spoken to Tony. Peter, seventeen, graduating High School and working as a tool builder for mercenaries and was part of Team Red. His vigilante career was booming, same as his client list for cool tech. When the Accords were brought back up Tony comes back into Peter’s life looking to have Peter sign the Accords so he could be an official member of the Avengers.

    Only Peter wasn’t the same kid that Tony knew and the last thing he was going to do was sign the Accords. With the city divided over the Accords and how Team Red should be treated, the last thing Team Red needed was a criminal organization making lethal drugs and kidnapping high risk children to be sold in a sex trade. With no other choice, Team Red has to turn to some of the more shady characters within the Avengers to help them track down this organization. But inviting any Avenger back into Peter’s life was a risk and he underestimated how determined Tony was to make up for his past mistakes. Will Peter allow Tony back in his life or will he keep his distance and continue to struggle as he becomes an adult?

    Summary

    Peter isn't a hero.

    A week after the spider bite, Uncle Ben was shot — and Aunt May had a heart attack just a year later. For a year, Peter was homeless. Then, Sir found him, took him in, and now Peter is the bodyguard to the top arms dealer in New York, and, soon, the world. Every day, they strike terror into the neighborhoods. Every day, Peter strays further and further from the hope of good, and more towards the closing line of evil.

    Tony Stark steps in, at the behest of S.H.I.E.L.D., and goes undercover as Eddie, an inventor wanting to work under Sir. In reality, Tony’s trying to destroy Sir’s entire shtick.

    First, the billionaire will have to earn the spiderboy's trust, and the two will form a bond only broken by those who formed it. And nothing, absolutely nothing, will go to plan.
