    Summary

    “I finally saw the footage of Coney Island. What were you thinking?”
    “I was thinking we probably wouldn’t crash. Actually I wasn’t, uh… you know how you sometimes just operate on that part of your brain that was, like, originally reserved for hunting woolly mammoths?”
    “That’s an exceedingly verbose way to say ‘I was a fucking dumbass’.”
    Peter laughs. He rolls his head to the side to smile at Tony. “You know, Mr. Stark. I thought you were gonna be way more upset about all this.”
    “It’s been a long day,” Tony says.
    -
    Or: Tony dealing with the plane crash on Coney Island for a whole Monday. Shouldn’t take long.

    Summary

    “Tony fucking Stark,” Clint says, and he points at the black smoke. “Did you blow up that base, you piece of shit?”
    “Absolutely not. I almost got blown up with it.”
    Clint is not alone. A few yards behind him, a scrawny figure halts and squints at Tony from underneath a frayed baseball cap. Sunken eyes. Dressed in a black undershirt and cargo pants.
    Can’t be older than eighteen.
    “What are you doing here?”
    Clint jerks his head at the boy behind him. “SHIELD mission. Extracting a hostage.”
    Tony glances back at the teenager, whose face has now morphed into something entirely impassive. “He seems thrilled about his rescue.”

    Tony is roped into a mission to transport a teenager to safety. But when things go south, it soon becomes more and more puzzling who the teenager is and what ‘safety’ means for him.

    Summary

    “You’ll come to learn that there’s only one thing worse than having nothing.”

    Trying to hold onto his fight, Peter shoots back, “Yeah? And what’s that?”

    “To have nothing, after being able to believe you could have everything.”

    The streets are dirty, crowded, and the jagged bumps in the asphalt are hardly comfortable to sleep on. They’re home, though.

    Peter is just about finished with New York City. It’s gotten impossibly harder to find even a scrap of food, and what little belongings he does have are unlikely to keep him alive through the winter. And the memories. God, the painful memories here.

    So he saves up. Makes a plan to get out of there.

    Then, somehow, he accidentally saves Tony fucking Stark from a gang of eight mercenaries, and the majestic plan disintegrates into ash.

    The worst part about it, he knows, isn’t even that he met Tony. It’s that Tony met him.
