    Summary

    “So…” Wade says. 

    “So?”

    “What was that about?” He already knows, anyone would, but he wants to be wrong. God, he wants to be wrong. 

    “Nothing, I uh, I just—” Spider-Man clears his throat abruptly. “I just freaked out a bit. Yeah.”

    “Right.”

    --------

    Peter doesn't talk about what happened because he's never trusted anyone enough to do so. And suddenly, there's Wade.

    Summary

    Hey kid! How's college treating you?

    Hm. How was college treating Peter? Well, let's recap:

    Peter Parker is in his first year of college after taking several gap years, constantly dodging SHIELD recruitment, and has no idea how to maintain his secret identity while in school. His head has also been screwing with him lately, lots of "you're a failure", and not a lot of "you're doing your best!". So:

    Everything's going great, I love it here!

    ——

    In which Peter is handling his collapsing life just fine as a freshman college student, who is also a vigilante, who is also having problems with life as an enhanced person, and it kind of feels like the world is ending all of the time, and then this "Deadpool" asshat crashes into his life. So yeah. Things are fine. Mostly.

    Everything is a mess and Peter wants to die.

    Summary

    “Found in a cornfield… So he’s adopted?”

    “Yep,” Hector says, accompanied by an affirming nod. 

    “And we’re sure he’s human?”

    “Looks pretty human to me,” Hector dismisses him with a wave of his hand. “And if he ain’t, it’s none of our business. He’s good for the Kent farm and for the town, so don’t go botherin’ him now.”

    “Huh,” Theo mumbles, watching the Kent boy lift a half-filled water trough. The kid looks up as Theo keeps staring, and gives him a gap-toothed smile and an enthusiastic wave, now holding the trough with a single hand. Theo waves back hesitantly, stopping when he feels Hector’s firm hand slap down on his shoulder. He looks to his side to see Hector waving at Clark as well. Hector leans in real close, whispering:

    “I mean it, son. You bother that Kent boy one bit, and the town’ll have your head. Just leave him be.”

     

    ----

     

    The years before Clark learned just how different he really is, as told through the eyes of the Smallville folk.

    Summary

    “Come over for dinner,” House says, poking Wilson with his cane. Wilson sighs, shaking his head.

    "I can’t tonight, I’m busy,” he says, dragging his pen half-heartedly over a paper to lazily sign it.

    "Busy with what?” House asks, incredulous. “Hosting a party in that shitty hotel room of yours? Got early reservations at the continental breakfast tomorrow?” Planning your suicide?

    --

    In which Wilson is suicidal, and House isn’t willing to let his best friend go. Enter Operation: Figure Out What The Fuck Is Wrong With James Wilson Before He Shoots Himself In The Head, in which his primary goal is to observe one James Wilson as closely as possible, determine the cause of Wilson’s suicidality, and remove it.

    To the surprise of absolutely no one, Operation FOWTFIWWJWBHSHITH (conveniently shortened to Operation: WTF) does not go spectacularly.

    Summary

    When Peter was young, very very young, this terrible thing happened. It made him very upset, but he had to keep it a secret, because that’s what the adult told him to do, and adults are always right.

    The thing about secrets, though, is that they weigh heavy on you, and eventually, something has to give.

    ———

    In which Peter has very successfully repressed some trauma, which totally isn't going to come back and bite him in the ass when he's older.

    Totally.

    Summary

    “Peter is nine,” he states simply. Tony looks over at him, confused.

    “Nine?” he asks, “Nine what?”

    “Years old,” Steve admits sheepishly. “He is nine years old--“

    “What the hell, Rogers?” Tony cuts in, panicked. Steve cringes, and a small, teary voice pops up behind him.

    "That's a bad word."

     

    OR:
    Peter gets de-aged by a magical witch and is now nine (and a half). The witch has, theoretically, sent Peter back to the age of "one of his worst traumas", but Peter is refusing to tell anyone about said trauma.

    Summary

    Peter’s not trying to make a truth serum, but, that is what he’s effectively made, apparently.

    He just wanted stronger webs! That’s it! And now Tony knows that Peter actually prefers Steve’s cooking over his own, and is vehemently offended by the fact.

    “You said you liked the casserole!” Tony exclaims, throwing his hands in the air. Peter groans, putting his head in his hands and trying to bite his tongue, but the words fall out anyways:

    “I lied, okay? Steve is good at improvising with your random, bougie ingredients, you’re not!”

    Or:
    Peter accidentally makes a truth serum. Unfortunately, he has a lot to hide. Read the tags.

    Summary

    “Hey, kid,” Tony’s voice sounds suspiciously choked up. If Peter didn’t know any better, he might even say it wavered. “Would you mind explaining what this is?”

    Peter steps closer, setting his apple juice on the desk Tony is currently situated at before walking over to stand next to him, getting a glance at the paper. For a second, he doesn’t recognize it, but then he sees that one chemical compound that he knows by heart. He feels his stomach drop to the floor, through the floor, through every floor in this tower before settling in bedrock.

    He'd forgotten about his old suicide planner, and was stupid enough to leave it in that damn notebook of his.

    Summary

    “So you’re a broke college student, behind on rent, living off of instant coffee, and suffering through an abusive relationship, who just wants to be free from it all.”

    “Oh, for Christ's sake— I’m not being abused, man, I just got mugged. And I wasn’t going to jump!” Peter insists. God, does Deadpool have a knack for getting on Peter’s nerves.

     

    Or:
    Wade finds someone on the roof. Peter tries to convince Wade that's he's not up here to jump without revealing his identity. "Peter Harker" is born.

    Summary

    “No, we have to go, it’s for the plot!”

    “What plot?! We’re people, you idiot! In real life! Real-life people who do not need to go to a loud, smelly, bright festival!” Spider-Man exclaims, waving his hands.

    “Oh my god, not this again.”

     

    Or:

    Deadpool is getting sick of being the only character aware of the fourth wall, so he tries to drag his friend Spidey into awareness. Shenanigans ensue.

    Summary

    Before he became a reporter, Eddie Brock could not give less of a fuck about what his body looked like. Hell, even after he became a reporter, he could not give less of a fuck about what his body looked like, but the first time he stepped away from the comfort of the pen and into the spotlight of his very own news segment, he suddenly felt very… aware of his body.

    He doesn't have an eating disorder though, let's make that perfectly clear. No matter how much his annoying alien symbiote insists that he does, Eddie Brock does not have an eating disorder.

    set between the first and second movie, featuring fairly OOC behavior/decisions.

    Summary

    “Hey, sweetheart—” Wade whispers against his lips. Peter pulls him in for another kiss. “Pete.” Wade says, this time more insistently, grabbing Peter by his shoulders. Peter whines, chasing after his lips, but Wade keeps talking this time. “Peter, you’re bleeding.”

    Wade pulls his thigh out from between Peter’s legs, and Peter looks down, finally noticing the dark spot spreading across his abdomen, and the second spot on his inner thigh.

    “Fuuuck,” Peter groans, throwing his head back.

    “Yeah, that’s what I’m tryna do here.”

    ———

    Based off that one prompt I saw somewhere, "oh god you're bleeding and not in a fun way".

    Summary

    “Hey, ‘Pool, remember what you said when we first met?”

    “About how adorable you were in your Tobey Maguire movies?”

    “What? No, you never said that. Tobey Who?”

    “Ah, never mind, that was in the comics, I think it was Cable & Deadpool #24? Hmmm… Oh, wait, I remember, I was telling you about how you had the finest ass I’d ever—”

    “No,” Spider-Man cuts in, firmly. “No, Deadpool, it was like, after all that. After we fought together for the first time, remember what you said?” He motions with his hands as though he was trying to prompt the right response.

    “Oh! That you were so cute and awesome, you could get a free hit on the house— oh,” His white lenses widen with realization, then squint in confusion. “Wait, Spider-Man wants to call in a hit on someone?”

    ———

    As Parker luck would have it, it's awfully hard for Peter to die. He's tried everything he can think of: hanging, drowning, overdosing, gassing, cutting... He's been blessed with the powers of a spider and the immortality of a goddamn cockroach. In a final, desperate attempt to end his life, he asks Deadpool to put out a hit on a seemingly ordinary civilian: Peter Parker.

    Summary

    He’s not sure how it slid out of place. Maybe it was the small earthquake last week. Maybe he slammed the drawer too hard the last time he closed it. Either way, the edge of the yellow cover glares up at him, freed from its usual hiding spot between the two pairs of jeans that he’d outgrown years ago.

    His hands move before his brain does, taking the corner of the journal and pulling it out from the drawer. Peter starts to flip through the pages, several dozen having been completely filled out with weekly weigh-ins, calorie counts, body measurements… The sinking feeling in his chest grew deeper with each page as he watched the dates fly by, until he hit the middle of the journal, where he’d abruptly stopped recording everything during his first semester of college and chaotic move-in to this apartment. Apparently it was nearly two years ago.

    A lot has changed in those two years.

    His mind is already picking apart the numbers in everything he’s eaten this week, and Peter is starting to think that he is not one of those things.

     

    In which Peter Parker needs help, and Wade doesn't know how, but he'll try his damn best.

    Summary

    In another universe, Hannibal might have opted for framing Will as a murderer instead of allowing him to be diagnosed and treated for encephalitis.

    Now, he can’t decide if that would have been more or less interesting than trying to keep Will stable while he comes back to his senses and starts revealing things that would leave most people aghast. However, Hannibal is not most people, and for once, that’s a good thing.

    Kind of.
