    Summary

    Peter Parker knows for a fact that smart kids always know they're smart. Another thing he knows: it fucking sucks to be a smart kid. It means being watched all the time, it means adults peering down their noses, it means tests and homework and boredom. It means fieldtrips to Oscorp and superpowers. It means watching Ben die, knowing exactly whose fault it is. It means an internship at Stark Industries, it means becoming an Avenger, it means getting dusted, coming back, watching another father figure die, watching him come back. It means holding May's hand while she babbles incoherently, inching towards death. It means magic spells and forgetting and seven years of lonely vigilanteism. It means making wrong choice after wrong choice after wrong choice.

    One thing Peter Parker knows for sure? Smart kids grow up to be the dumbest adults.

    --

    Twenty-five years old, forgotten by everyone, stoned out of his mind, Spider-Man has an unexpected run-in with Deadpool that might just change everything.

    Summary

    Wade Wilson is the best merc in the business, and he knows it. When he crosses the wrong kind of withered old lady—the magic kind—she curses him to regret his cockiness in the most literal way possible: By turning him into a cock. A rooster. A male hen, of the chicken variety.

    Peter Parker, grieving the loss of Aunt May and Uncle Ben, needs a change. That's what his grief counselor says, anyway. So he makes an impulsive and massive one: He buys a farm. He doesn't mean for it to turn in a rescue for broken things, he just... he can't help but love the animals that no one else wants. Thus, when he overhears a greasy, crude asshole trying to pawn off a rooster in the middle of a farmer's market, he doesn't hesitate.

    But there's something wrong with this rooster. It doesn't crow at sunrise—which is the only thing Peter expects a rooster would do—but it does holler its tail off whenever Peter bends over. And it follows him around and clucks like it's talking to him. And it's weirdly good at killing the vermin around the house.

    There's a mystery afoot. Peter's going to get to the bottom of it.

    (The Beauty and the Beast!AU you never knew you needed.)

    Summary

    “Just an interview would be good,” Peter said, clearing his throat. “I’m mostly a photographer, not sure I’ve got the interrogator qualifications.”

    “Photographer, hmmm. . .well, I can definitely think of a few things you could take a picture of -” Deadpool started, then stopped, lenses narrowing. “Wait a flaming hot second. Peter Parker? Why does that name sound familiar?”

    Peter tensed. Had someone figured out Spiderman’s secret identity and sicced a mercenary on him to try and catch him when he wasn’t in costume?

    As Peter began to spiral, Deadpool glanced down at the newspaper in his lap, looking at the front page cover. He squinted, pulled the paper closer to his face, and then let out an auditory gasp.

    “Holy shit balls, you’re the guy who takes all those hot pictures of Spiderman!”

    “Excuse me?” Peter said, torn between relief and confusion.

    *

    or, Peter has to interview Deadpool, which quickly spirals into him being offered an obscene amount of money to sell Deadpool pictures of Spiderman. Between keeping up his secret identity, Deadpool’s flirting, and a growing mob threat, Peter quickly gets in over his head.

    Summary

    At twenty-one, moving to New York is everything you'd dreamed of. A fashion internship, your own apartment, and a chance to finally start over.

    What you didn't expect was your next-door neighbor.

    Peter Parker was awkward, chronically sleep-deprived, and had an uncanny habit of coming home bruised at three in the morning. Somehow, in a city of millions, fate kept finding little ways to put the two of you in each other's path.

    Or

    Peter had spent years convincing himself that some burdens were his alone to carry, that needing someone was a weakness he couldn't afford.

    Then, you came into his life, and slowly taught him that maybe the heaviest things weren't meant to be carried alone.

    Summary

    The apartment was smaller than the word apartment deserved.

    Calling it a box would have been more honest. Four walls, a ceiling low enough that Peter felt like he’d bang his head trying to stand up from unpacking, and a window that technically opened but jammed half the time. The place smelled faintly of mildew, maybe because of the carpet - or maybe because this whole building had given up on life a few decades ago and was just waiting for someone merciful to bulldoze it.

    He told himself it was fine. He told himself worse things had happened. Which, technically, was true.

    That didn’t make him feel any better.
