Summary
That is, until a man stops in front of the corridor like an alleycat. He stares at Dean - as much of him as he can see shrouded behind a dumpster, anyway - with eyes as blue and piercing as an explosion of fireworks going off next to an animal shelter. Just when Dean thinks he’ll keep walking, his whiskers, which stick to his face like individual brown tacks, move only when his large pink lips curve into a woeful smile.
"I've been there."
Dean nearly shakes again at the depth to his voice, then glances down, remembering he's standing in no one's treasure. "Oh," he laughs nervously, "I'm not homeless, I swear. Just an artist."

Summary
Kenny would call dumpster diving a hobby if it meant dodging from the truth of it- that sometimes, it was what he needed to do to keep his family afloat. Finding company while doing so wouldn't have occurred to him as a possibility either, until an ethereal garbage guardian caught him in the act and twitched disapprovingly in his general direction. It admittedly wasn't the best way to start a friendship, but maybe that made it more intimate, and that could explain why whenever he showed up, Kenny felt like maybe he could give civilized life a shot.
Rated T for language. Twenny. Where fluff and angst meet somewhere in the middle, but definitely in fluff's corner. One-shot.

Summary
There was a man Peter passed every day on his way home from school. He was scraggy and unkempt and very obviously homeless. He had long brown hair with some peppering of grey that hung in his face, and a beard to match. No matter how warm the day was, he covered himself in a thick jacket that hung off his bony frame. When it was rainy or cold, he sat in the subway. When he was chased off from there, he did his best to cling to awnings and the sides of buildings. But the most distinctive thing about him, what made Peter actually take notice of this one man in the entire homeless population of New York, was the cardboard sign he carried around with him. It read, in slightly shaky capital letters:
WILL INVENT FOR FOOD
But most of the time, Peter didn’t think about him. He went to school, absolutely killed at decathlon, took his T shots, made up secret handshakes with Ned, was Spider-Man, was yelled at by Aunt May when she discovered he was Spider-Man, and loved New York City with all his heart. There just wasn’t enough time to worry about this one homeless man.
