“Don’t think of it as marriage,” Benny tells her. “Think of it as castling.”
Beth raises an eyebrow. “Am I the king or the rook in this analogy?”

Summary
He supposes dying here is a kindness, instead of in between the teeth of a titan, like the fate so many of his comrades had. Sure, he’d never know if it’s possible to rid the world of those monstrosities outside the walls. He’d never see the day those walls actually fall. He’d never see what actually lies beyond them. What life is like outside of everything he’s ever known. If the sun shined differently without the confines of a cage.
If all the suffering had been worth it in the end.
Or the one where Levi gets separated from the rest of his squad while out on a mission, and Eren, who has grown up outside the walls, finds him before death does.

Summary
The thing about Heather Holloway is that she isn't supposed to be in Billy's life. He's tried so hard to make sure of that. Works at it daily.
She's an upper class girl. A kind girl. A pretty girl. A girl with dark curls in a scrunchie, wearing bangles obnoxiously thick for her sharp wrists. Doe-eyes that people innately trust. Lips that curve in an enticing slope whenever she opens her sweet mouth.
Too sweet.
The kind of sweet that sinks into Billy’s marrow like a cancer.

Summary
Homecoming AU.
Ben and May divorced before Peter’s parents died, so when Ben is murdered Peter goes into foster care. It takes just a tiny taste of superpowers for Peter to decide he doesn’t want to put up with his horrible foster father anymore—the streets are infinitely more appealing. All he wants is to be Spider-Man anyway.
So he leaves.
Simple.
Simple, that is, until Iron Man needs Spider-Man’s help. Peter isn’t about to turn down an opportunity to fight alongside Tony Freaking Stark, but he also isn’t going to let his hero know that his recruit is a fifteen-year-old homeless dropout. So they strike a deal. Peter will help Tony. In return, the mask stays on.
And that’s when things get complicated.

Summary
Nominated for the Best Wild Card fic in the Irondad Creator Awards 2024
Peter shakily says, “you need to let me leave.”
“You will,” Tony reasons gently. “You will. Those doors will open the second you calm down.”
The indignation morphs into fierce anger because “those doors will open the second you input the security override code,” he snaps. Peter may be freaking out right now, but he’s not an idiot.
Caught, Tony pauses to look at him, to zero in and search. And Peter, terrified, grits his teeth and looks away. He can’t stomach being studied like that, and – he just, he really needs to leave right now. The standoff lasts for a few more seconds before finally Tony eases off: “FRIDAY, temporarily deactivate Baby Monitor Protocol – override code One-Zero-One-Seven-Two-Zero-Two-Three.”
1-0-1-7-2-0-2-3
October 17, 2023…Feeling sick, his lost eyes snap back to searching ones.
The elevator doors open behind him but he doesn't move, choosing instead to stare at Mr. Stark as the weight bearing down on his chest sinks just a little further.
Squeezing his shoulder, Tony explains: “The day I got you back.”
Despondent, Peter pushes the hand off him. “The day I lost you.”
