    Summary

    Peter gets into the Brilliant Young Minds of the Future Stark Internship Program (or BYMOTFSIP, not that that's any less of a mouthful), an internship that he's sure will change his life. Hopefully. Maybe. God, he wants it to. Ever since Uncle Ben died, Aunt May... went off the rails. he's sure she still loves him, somewhere deep down under all the vitriol and the hitting him and the starving him... maybe this internship will land him a job that will allow him to pull the bones of his family up and out of poverty. Maybe, if he does well enough, May will stop blaming him for ruining her life.

    He meets Kitty, a spunky, brainy, funny, traumatised teenager who seems to be looking for the same thing as him. A real family, someone to love her without conditions. Someone who has a brilliant brain in her head, if only she could see that. If only she could stop rationalising the horrible things her drunkard of a father keeps doing to her.

    Peter, Kitty, and the other recipients of the Internship all work together to impress Dr Bruce Banner, their mentor, while hoping that their individual projects are enough to impress the one and only Tony Stark. If Peter work hard enough, it might be enough to win May back.

    Summary

    Mr. Stark sighs. “Kid, I’ve known for a while that you know that I know about your little side gig here.” He ignores Peter’s interjection of ‘this isn’t my side gig, Spider-Man is my side gig, this is my job.’ “I heard about your black eye yesterday. So I can no longer ignore it, though it pains me deeply. Trust me. Because those shorts are way too short on you and now I have to look at my kid wearing glitter on his ass cheeks.”

    “How did you hear about my black eye? It faded after, like, an hour.”

    “Okay, ‘hear’ might be an… imprecise word. Karen told me. Obviously.”

    -

    Or: Tony’s back from the dead. The hard part starts now.

    Summary

    Peter almost deleted the email without even opening it. Anything with Stark in the subject line these days is a scam.

    But then his eyes scanned further, widening by the second.

    Welcome to the Stark Industries Summer Internship Program

     

    OR

    Internship at Stark Industries? Easy. Putting up with ghosts of his foster care past in a group project? Less easy. Meeting the Avengers?

    He doesn't know if his heart can take it.

     

    OR OR

    Peter is a genius, and gets adopted by Tony Stark. Oh, and someone's trying to blow up New York.

     

    Thank you so much to Ace for beta-reading! They're currently making their way through the early Chapters and I cannot thank them enough for being so cool with it!

    Summary

    Harry had always been told he looked like his father. Harry didn’t quite see the resemblance. Nothing ever came of this realization until the summer after his fourth year at Hogwarts.
    “James isn’t your biological father. His name is Anthony Stark, and he lives in New York. He has the means to provide for you and hire the best security American aurors can provide. I got you a passport. It should hold up to the British security to get you on the plane.”

    Harry Potter au where Tony Stark is his father and how that changes everything. Inspired by like every fic on the tag.

    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.
