Summary
Héctor Rivera is dead. There's no getting around that.
As it turns out, death isn't very fair, and the pudgy man in his attic with the striped suit has no qualms about rubbing this in.
The odd demon with the even odder name may promise he's here to help, but Héctor has a sneaking suspicion he's lying, and that the boy who moved into his house may now be entangled in something supernatural.
But hell hath no fury like a father separated from his family.

Summary
"Why do we need a secret identity?" Dustin asked, looking bored with the subject.
"Because..." Tony paused, trying to think of the right way to put it. "Because being a hero isn't about fame or popularity. It's doing what's right because someone has to do it, and we can't wait around for a solution in good conscience when we know we can help. We don't need to put a face to the symbol. It's supposed to be a symbol, not a celebrity."
There was quiet while the others considered this.
"And our parents will kill us if they find out." El said.
Tony nodded. "That too."

Summary
Why are you running around in pajamas, huh? Come on, I'm curious.
Peter shuffled, a bit uncomfortable, but strangely, the embarrassment was slowly starting to fade. "Because..." He paused, trying to think how to phrase it without giving out everything. "Because I've been ME-" He emphasized me, "-my whole life...and I've had these powers for six months. I read books, I build computers...and yeah, I would love to do something about this-" He waved his hand around his ears, suddenly shocked with the fact he was telling freaking Iron Man this, "-but I don't know what'd happen now."
Because you're different now.
"Yeah. But I can't tell anyone that so I'm not." He stalled, very unsure if he wanted to continue. But he did.
"...when you can do the things that I can...but...but you don't, and then the bad things happen...they happen because of you." He was very, very slow when he talked now, although he wished he could speed it up, he'd rather do anything than go into detail on that subject...

Summary
So, hypothetically speaking of course, what if our favorite Irondad and Spideyson found themselves entangled in the Olympians' bullshit? I-I mean greater plan, that's what I meant.
Quite a bit would happen, that's what.
