Hi! Sorry to bother, idk if you take asks like this (if you don't feel free to ignore!) but do you know any good fics where SI employees bully/threaten/mistreat Peter and Tony comes to the rescue? Thank you so much for your time 💙💙
Hi! I absolutely do! I might just take forever to respond and take your prompt a little loosely 😃 The three under the cut are employees with (valid) security concerns. I know there are more that I can’t find, so anyone feel free to add some 😉
A Big Security Issue by FotiBrit
When Peter lost his Stark Industries Staff ID, Tony handed the kid his own. That was never an issue, until Peter had to check in at the front desk.

The Cusp of a Breath by SpaceCowboysFromMars
“That was the most stressful thing I’ve ever experienced.” Peter says as he and Tony make their way into the crowd. He wipes his sweaty palms on his thighs, cringing when he remembers how much the suit costs.
“You got shot on patrol last month.”
“This was worse.”
Or; Peter is introduced as the official heir of Stark Industries, but not everyone is completely welcoming of his presence. Luckily, he has a pretty awesome mentor to keep him on track.
-
the love (and other things) you inherit by ironfidus
“Which is why,” Catherine says, unblinking, as delicately as she can, “the board requires that you name a successor in the event of your untimely demise. The risk has simply become too great for us to ignore.”
Tony Stark’s spent a large portion of his life thinking about legacy: his legacy, his company’s, Iron Man’s. He’s spent a lot of time fighting to protect his legacy, too. But today, with a lawyer as his witness and FRIDAY as his one-AI cheerleading squad, he stops, takes a step back, and lets go instead—because for the first time, his legacy isn’t about him, not really.
And as FRIDAY would say: it’s about damn time.
Alternatively: Tony updates his will and gets himself an heir, Peter gets a promotion (for lack of a better word), and the rest of the world gets a wake-up call—in that order. Ft. an impatient board of directors, a Stark Industries charity gala, and a universe in which Tony Stark gets to be happy.

Security Bias by Sara (ctrsara)
Happy Hogan asks Daren Anderson to help him out with a little project.
My take on idk-bruh-20's irondad fic ideas #128: Fic where, after a security incident in which some bozo accused Peter of trespassing at Stark Tower, Happy holds an emergency briefing for the entire SI security team.
The topic of the briefing? The absolutely untouchable, vital-to-know-if-you-want-to-keep-your-job level of importance of one Peter Parker.
:)
Five Times Tony Stark's Fabled Intern Just Showed Up + One Time He Was Invited by kingdomfaraway
While Leroy didn’t like gossip, he wasn’t immune to it and he’d heard about a young boy claiming to be Tony Stark’s intern showing up randomly throughout the building. He just figured it was some random mystery, a Stark Industries cryptid if you will.
Never did he think he’d have a sighting.
“Are you Peter Parker?” Leroy questioned, narrowing his eyes at the young boy, looking for any signs of deceit.
“Oh yeah, that’s me, hi!” Possibly Fabled Intern Peter Parker reached into his pocket and pulled out a badge and lanyard, this one with his face on it and INTERN written underneath it. “Mr. Stark got me a badge so I can get nachos whenever I want.”
-
Chapter 1 of 200 Park Avenue (5+1) by Sara (ctrsara)
Peter hasn't seen Mr. Stark, or been able to go out as Spider-man since he turned down his invitation to join the Avengers a few weeks ago. He ends up at Stark Tower rather randomly, finding an unlikely hero in Mr. Stark's AI, then keeps returning for different purposes.
The first chapter is a short I did for Comfortember 2022 that I've just kept thinking about. I'm building on that story and creating a 5+1 to explore the new dynamic (post-Homecoming) in another way.
Or
5 Times Peter Visited Stark Tower and 1 Time He Stayed

Home by patrochilles_trash ((it’s less angsty than it sounds))
Tony had been out of the country for weeks on SI business, and Peter was having a hard time. He missed him, plain and simple.
Okay. Maybe not so plain and simple.
Peter had a rough time in the weeks and months that followed the final defeat of Thanos in the ruins of the Compound. Thrust back into life, only to be forced to fight for the lives of the entire universe for the second time at only sixteen-years-old, and then to be told that his last living relative died in a crash during his five year absence did wonders for his psyche.
He developed a nasty form of separation anxiety toward his mentor-turned-adoptive-father -- not that Tony fared much better himself -- and his therapist had said it was a side effect of PTSD and that it would get better over time.
OR
A small field trip fic to SI where Tony has been out of the country for a few weeks, and Peter isn't handling it well.
Don't be fooled. This garbage fluff to avoid my other fics that I'm writing

Hi! Hope you don't mind me asking but do you know any good fics where Peter gets threatened/bullied by an SI employee and Tony comes to the rescue? tysm for your time and feel free to ignore this ask if I'm bothering you 💙
Oh! I love getting asks like this! There's nothing better than being able to track down some fun fics and share them with others! In this case, I KNEW I had read things like this before but I couldn't put my finger on any of them. So. I went for help. Haha. I asked the Irondad Readers and Writers Discord if they knew of any fics that fit the bill. And oh boy, did they come through! I read every single one of them before posting this and they are all so good!! I hope you enjoy! Don't forget to kudos and comment!

Fic Recs Below the Cut!
A Big Security Issue by FotiBrit
Rated G
When Peter lost his Stark Industries Staff ID, Tony handed the kid his own. That was never an issue, until Peter had to check in at the front desk.
The Incident by Blasphemmky
Rated T
He watches the usual throng of people enter into the building, scanning their ID badges with Theresa before heading to the elevator. Scientists and engineers and representatives, all of them familiar.
Until a kid makes his way to the reception desk, a threadbare backpack slung over his shoulders. John cocks an eyebrow, watching him. The boy can't be more than 5'5. A tiny fucking pipsqueak. 
Bullying by Emily_F6
Rated T
When Peter gets an internship with Stark Industries, he's excited to learn as much as he can...until one of the other interns sets his sights on him.
Excuse You, That is My Emotional Support Intern by Neicy286
Rated T
It started with an invitation. The invitation. If there was a real world equivalent to the Wayne Gala, then the Archimedes Gala was it.
In which Peter is invited to a gala, and someone's a big fat meanie. But Tony fixes it though.
Be There (To Clear the Fog) by pandaluna
Rated G
Five times Tony heard Peter was in trouble and jumped in to fix the problem, and one time there was nothing neeed fixing.
Tony's intern just seems to always end up in some kind of trouble and he feels like he has to help since he picked the kid on his own. That's it. There's nothing more to it, of course.
On another note, Spider-Man is seemingly going through mood swings that Tony has no idea how to deal with, so he just throws food his way and hopes it makes everything better.

Fic appreciations #17
Long Story Short (It Was A Bad Time) Or AIs Don't Forget
by peacockgirl
I can't believe I haven't gotten around to writing a fic appreciation for this one??? I mean there are still lots of fics I adore that I haven't posted about yet, but still. Wild. I think about this fic literally all the time.
This is a NWH fix-it where Peter (gradually) gets remembered and his trauma gets recognized and Tony (who is ALIVE thank you very much) gives him so many hugs. The level of comfort in this fic is unreal. Reading this made me feel comforted.
Featuring:
Ironfam <3 <3 <3
Tony is an excellent dad
Morgan is the BEST little sister
Peter has so much trauma it's not even funny
But his family is there for him <3
FRIDAY and Karen the real MVPs
Uncle Happy rights
Doctor Strange gets no rights 😌

Best Penny Parker Fics Part 1
Mr. Stark is dead.
It's her fault.
Even in heaven, there is a touch of hell. Penny experiences that in one of the worst ways and doesn't know how to live with the pain and worse-how to live with the pain alone.
Penny Parker was sure that someone would die; either she would kill her family for embarrassing her, or her family would kill Flash for bullying her.
Penny had felt something sick and afraid in her stomach at the way Sam Wilson had looked at her mentor…at the way both of them had looked at her. Or maybe she’d just been imagining it. Maybe her own memories had been coloring her thoughts. Still, the next words had come almost before she’d decided to say them.
“We’ve met, actually.” Penny had told them, holding out a hand to Sam, smirking just a little. As if on autopilot, he had taken her hand, shaking it once, but not squeezing. She made up for squeezing his hand just a little too hard. “You threw me out a window.”
Penny Parker had lost all hope of feeling warm ever again.
She had failed her favorite hero, May had died in a car crash and she had been tossed around from bad foster home to slightly less bad foster homes for the past six months.
She got through each day only to lie awake in her bunk each night and wait for the next day.
That was until she met a baby calico kitten with the whole world stacked against it.
She had been a hero for over a year, maybe she could do it one last time?
While the Avengers try and fail to hunt down Spider-Man, Penny Parker hides the fact that she's a foster kid living in a group home. When Tony Stark takes her in, what will happen?
Pepper’s shocked face finally registered to Tony and he looked at her in question. Her eyes flicked between him and Penny before he still shrugged that he didn’t understand the expression.
“Spider-Man?” She said with emphasis on the last work.
“Misnomer,” Penny answered for him as she turned.
“Tony once said that you’d kill for me.”
Natasha gave her a look she couldn’t quite interpret. Then she shrugged. “I’ve killed for far worse reasons.”
In the few months after Penny’s disastrous Homecoming night, the Stark and Parker families figure out how to find common ground.
Penny hadn't really had birthdays. And especially not parties.
But, with Pepper pregnant and every moment being dedicated to the coming baby, Penny is really looking forward to this one day.

Omg I love this series so much. I love it. I'm feral for it. At first I wasn't sure, but omg. This fic had changed the direction of my life. The Bucky Barnes x Percy Jackson tag had me suspicious, but I'm so glad I read it. The character growth, the plot, amazing. Tony Stark amazing. Peter Parker, wonderful. The way Tony slowly opens up to Percy and they become brothers who would kill for each other, perfect. The slow burn between Bucky and Percy about overcoming and facing your trauma, beautiful. PLEASE READ IT!!!!! (Personally, I recommend starting with the second fic and reading the first one after it) this series is actually my favorite fic of all time.

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Marvel Cinematic Universe, The Avengers (Marvel Movies), Spider-Man (Tom Holland Movies) Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: Graphic Depictions Of Violence, No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Peter Parker & Tony Stark ---
Summary: "Tony wants to scream.
He wants to yell and shout and rip apart these non-teachers, demanding to know what happened, who hurt his kid, what the heck is going on. How this stupid field trip turned into a nightmare from hell and Peter is bleeding and scared and Tony doesn’t know what to do. How to fix this."
AKA: the field trip to SI from hell, because it's not a good thing an entire high school knows Peter (allegedly) works at SI. (one shot, gen)
Or: me being like 2 years late for this trope but having a fantastic time being up the boys again.

Fic Rec List for the WinterIron server event
"All that glitters"
- Star-Blessed
Rating: M
Pairings: Bucky/Tony
Warnings/triggers: chose not to use
Summary:
The stars whispered to Tony as he fell back through the portal.
Everyone else who had near death experiences talked about bright lights and buried memories. Tony had the stars whispering to him and telling tales that couldn’t possibly be true, except -
Except things that Tony touched turned to gold, now.
- It Doesn't Have to be a 'Thing'
Rating: T
Pairing: Bucky/Tony
Warnings/triggers: NA
Summary:
Peter doesn't go to the tower every day, because that would be silly. He doesn't need to see Tony that often, and anyway he doesn't want to bother Tony. Besides, he's busy with his small circle of friends and being Spider-Man, so it's fine. Tony's always happy to see him when he does stop by, and when Peter has good news to share his superhero mentor is willing to buy him pizza to celebrate.
Spider-Man knew that Tony had a house guest, but when Peter drops by the tower to share something awesome, he's surprised to find himself face to face with the Winter Soldier.
- divine secrets
Rating: T
Pairing: Bucky/Tony
Warnings/triggers: NA, Bucky Barnes & Winter Soldier are Different Personalities
Summary:
“Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood,” James says if someone even mentions the movie in passing, leaving a pause as if whatever he is about to say is of the utmost importance, “is a fucking masterpiece.”
- ever in your favor
Rating: T
Pairing: gen
Warnings/triggers: Graphic Depictions Of Violence, Hunger Games-Typical Death/Violence, Suicidal Thoughts
Summary:
Peter startles awake when someone shakes him.
“Sorry, honey,” May says. Peter blinks a couple times and she comes into focus, her hair pulled back from her face. She’s trying not to look a certain way, but he can see it in her eyes anyway. She clears her throat, keeps talking. “But it’s…” She glances away, wets her lips. “You gotta get ready.”
He remembers what day it is, and his heart beats like a drum at someone’s execution. But he tries to put on a mask, make it all seem normal. It’s everything but, despite the fact that he’s been dealing with reaping day since he was born, between himself, Ben and May. That fear that one of them could be taken away. Sent to surefire slaughter. But now Ben is gone, taken despite never having his name drawn from a bowl, and May’s finally safe. Now Peter’s name is in there alone. The last Parker sitting on the chopping block. He doesn’t know how to be. He doesn’t know what normal is, when the Hunger Games are looming on the horizon.

Calling all iron-dad and spiderson
Im currently looking for a fic about no way home where Peter goes to an alternate universe where instead of Tony snapping, his counter-spidey does and dies. Doctor Strange sends Peter to that universe because the one he is in is currently unbalance so Peter does and he takes shelter unknowingly it is his not dead mentor/dad shed where he has a bad fever and Morgan calls him shed peter! Can anyone help me find it?!

Chapter 19: The rain
Summary:
Infinity is a concept beyond the comprehension of most mortal minds. A number so large it can’t be counted. An expanse so vast it can’t be filled. But there are bigger infinities and smaller infinities. There are an infinite number of universes. There are an infinity number of outcomes for every situation. Ahead of us lie more infinite possibilities. Fewer than the infinity of a few seconds ago. Larger than the infinity a few seconds from now. One could never see them all. And sometimes, outside of the most likely, one of those rarer infinite possibilities happens. It seems the one we are on now is not one I foresaw. But we're past the point of no return. Lets see how this one plays out, shall we? _______________________ There were more people on the battle field willing to die for their cause than Tony Stark. Some of those people knew the importance of the gauntlet. One of them was close enough to be the back up when it was falling into Thanos's hands, and Peter Parker couldn't let that happen again.

It's been a while since I've had a nice long fic rec list cross my dash so, as my good friend said to me earlier today, I'm going to be the change I want to see.
Anyway, here are some of the in-progress Irondad fics and series been enjoying recently! (in no particular order)
❤ A Secret Or Two by Winterturtle @winter-turtle
Chose Not to Use Archive Warnings || Rated T
A single gunshot was all it took to turn the Parker family's lives upside-down. It's been rough couple of months, but Peter and May were slowly starting to pick up the pieces of their lives. For a moment, it was starting to feel normal again.
That is, until a mysterious man barged into their apartment, leading to a secret or two being revealed about both of them.
Or a (former) Shield agent May Parker fic because I couldn't find this trope anywhere.
❤ 5 times Peter Parker falls asleep in an uncomfortable position by lemonlillybee @lemonlillybee
Chose Not to Use Archive Warnings || Rated T
And 1 time he falls asleep like a normal person
❤ 5 Times Tony Tried to Be a Good Dad by InfinitesimalDna
Chose Not to Use Archive Warnings || Rated M
+1 time he knew he was.
Or, Tony trying to navigate new waters he never thought he would have to with the kid. He hopes he can handle at least one of 'em right.
❤ Social Butterfly Spidey by Jenniboo311 @jenniboo311
No Archive Warnings Apply || Rated T
A series filled with Spider-Man's adventures in social media.
❤ A New Point of View by waitingondaisies @waitingondaisies
No Archive Warnings Apply || Rated T
Peter doesn't hesitate before ditching school to go help fight the weird, purple, goo energy type stuff that's coming out of a portal over Manhattan. Perhaps he should have, though, because when he and Tony breathe the stuff in, they end up swapping bodies. With Dr. Strange not answering his phone, Peter and Tony are stuck living each others' lives for the time being. Really, though, what could go wrong?
❤ one single thread of gold by tonystarktrash
No Archive Warnings Apply || Rated M
Tony's answer to the final question of whether he would ever allow contact to be made prior to his offspring’s 18th birthday had been instinctive. Tony had checked ‘no’ and had clicked the end of the pen, satisfied by a job well done. A quiet voice at the back of his mind, the voice of his mother, had caused him to scribble over ‘no’ until the bottom of the page was almost entirely consumed by ink. Then, his handwriting cramped but legible, Tony had written yes — in case of medical emergencies or death of legal guardian(s).
a drunken dare made six years ago leads to a phone call that changes tony stark's life.
❤ Catch Your Own Happiness by truelovetakesawhile
Archive Warnings Apply! || Rated M
When Tony finds a strange, spidery experiment locked underground in a Hydra facility, he takes it upon himself to try rehabilitating a teenager who knows nothing about the outside world.
❤ The ghost at the back of your closet by niniblack @niniblack
Chose Not to Use Archive Warnings || Rated M
The DODC makes good on their threat to charge May with child endangerment, sending Peter into foster care. But in a universe where Tony Stark is still alive, his actions have repercussions as well, and May Parker isn’t the only one fighting to get custody of her child back.
Meanwhile, Peter’s left completely alone and unable to contact any of his loved ones, trying to navigate a system he thought he’d left behind after his aunt and uncle picked him up a few weeks after his parents’ deaths. And he’s absolutely not going to let anything like what happened to him happen to Morgan, no matter what he has to do to make sure she’s safe.
❤ Tales from the Tower MedBay by Call_Me_Coley @call-me-coley
No Archive Warnings Apply || Rated G
Also known as “MedBay Adventures” with a specific focus on Irondad and Spiderson, and of course some Avengers and Ironfam will be stopping by!
Or
A series of unrelated drabbles and oneshots that revolve around the Tower’s MedBay cuz if we’re being honest, you know those walls have got some stories to tell.
Please be sure to leave these amazing authors' comments and kudos!
Also! Stay tuned for a 'completed multi-chapter' and 'one-shot' rec list in the future!

Fic appreciations #18
Living Proof
by ArwenKenobi
Another one that I somehow haven't posted about yet! There are so many!
This is an Endgame fix-it with a bucket full of grief and an absolute tsunami of eventual comfort.
After the battle, Peter is still reeling from the fact that Tony is gone when he learns that May is also gone. She died when the snap happened, but she wasn't directly snapped, so she isn't coming back.
In this story, the whole Ironfam was a lot closer pre-snap than we get to see in canon. Peter goes home with Pepper and Morgan, and they all grieve a lot, and it hurts a lot for a while.
But, all is not as it seems. My bestie Tony Stark is coming back.
Featuring:
Tony Gets To Be With His Fucking Children rights
Peter and Morgan = best siblings
Ironfam pre-snap was the bomb
Grief TM
Dread Pirate Fury
Tony was a paranoid bastard man and planned so many posthumous protocols
Evil grape soda
Domestic bliss

MUTUAL PINING FIC RECS: Below you'll find a list of Good Omens fics in which Aziraphale and Crowley are pining for each other.
You can request more fic recs here.
you play with my feelings (right from the start) by PenroseSun (G, 3k)
There were three things of which Crowley was absolutely certain: 1. Aziraphale, being an angel, was required to be kind and loving towards all things, even when those things were flawed or sinful or fallen. 2. Notwithstanding that obligatory kindness, Aziraphale would never, and could never truly love a demon, in any meaningful sense. 3. Despite this, Crowley was desperately, hopelessly, in love with him.
For To Quench My Thirst by apliddell (G, 6k)
After moving to Sussex with Aziraphale, Crowley is trying so hard to be satisfied with friendship and the suddenly beautiful life he already has.
Slow by write_away (T, 9k)
It started like this: A boy with the ability to warp reality met an angel and a demon and he made assumptions. You might say it started like this: An angel and a demon found a marriage contract hung on the wall of the angel's bookshop. They didn't question it. It also could have started like this: Once upon a time, the angel told the demon he went too fast. The demon took it to heart.   Aziraphale and Crowley find themselves somehow married. Crowley fears going too fast. Aziraphale forges ahead. Neither know how to ask questions of each other.
got a pretty face, pretty boyfriend too by KissMyAsthma, leukozyna (T, 9k)
Aziraphale and Crowley are next-door neighbours. They’ve been attracted to each other since they met. The only thing keeping them apart is a thin wall between their bedrooms and Atticus and Freddie, Aziraphale’s and Crowley’s respective life partners… or are they? A human AU glued together by misunderstandings and wet food.
speed limits (and how to break them) by darcylindbergh (E, 13k)
There is a trick people do with a mint candy and a bottle of cola which results in a small eruption, and something very like it, for much higher stakes than a laugh in a car park, is about to take place in Aziraphale’s back room. Or: what happens when you finally unscrew the cap on a six thousand years of repression, and drop in Valentine’s Day.
Something We Were Withholding Made Us Weak by triedunture (M, 17k)
"Yes, exactly. Retire." Aziraphale reaches for the last remaining tartlet brimming with summer berries. "Somewhere along the south coast, perhaps." Or: Crowley and Aziraphale learn to move in tandem.
32 Questions That Lead To Love by ffonippop (E, 32k)
”First formulated in 1997, [32] questions to fall in love is a study by psychologist Dr. Arthur Aron which took place at Stony Brook University, New York. The aim? Speeding up the creation of intimacy between two strangers.” The Cosmopolitan Okay, fine. Crowley was 32-Questions-That-Lead-To-Love-ing Aziraphale. Sue him. He had no expectations, all right? Just, an innocent curiosity.
Flowers From The Grave Of Our Friendship by WaitingToBeBroken (E, 50k)
Crowley is very good at temptation, not so good with what comes afterwards. Aziraphale knows demons don't love so he is happy to take anything Crowley would give him. Both of them are too blind to realize the thing they want is right in front of them.
Fledging by FeralTuxedo (M, 53k)
Cool Dad was at the school gate again. Clambering out of his ridiculous sports car like a great big spider, all black denim and designer sunglasses. What a prat. He made his way towards the entrance, followed by his equally lanky son. All the mums' eyes were on him. Which was fine. At least they weren't staring at Aziraphale for a change. Cool Dad high-fived his son goodbye, because of course he did, then sauntered back to his car. Making it look so bloody easy. Aziraphale Fell is much too young to be looking after eleven-year old Pepper. He barely has his life together as it is, with his minimum-wage job and a half-baked dream of trading rare books for a living. And as if adopting a recently bereaved pre-teen isn’t enough, there are some rather more adult problems to navigate: playground politics, the shadows of his own childhood, and the growing question of how Crowley, the only other dad at the school gate, feels about him. A human AU/kid fic.
Style and Substance by Cabernet_Woebegone (E, 89k)
“But y’know, if my boss finds out I’m helping you even a little, they’re gonna throw me out on my ass.” “Yes, I understand it is a bit of a conflict of interest for you… Is there something I can offer you in return? Something you would like?” Aziraphale questioned hopefully. You, Crowley thought loudly as he took a second sip. I want to know if you moan when you kiss the same way you do when you try something delicious. I want to know if your lips taste like Zinfandel. “Yes, actually.” Aziraphale is having difficulty running his restaurant, and it isn't helping that he believes the place across the street is trying to sabotage him. To his surprise, chef Crowley comes to him on friendly terms. Together they come up with an arrangement that could benefit them both.
On Espionage and Prophecy (or How to Accidentally, but Wholly, Fall in Love With a Soho Bookseller) by RockSaltAndRoll (E, 133k)
1941 is the London Blitz and the year that MI5 really comes into its own with the now infamous ‘double cross’ system. The service keep tabs on suspects, root out enemy agents and try to turn them into doubles. Anthony J Crowley is fucking great at this job. He can be sneaky, underhanded and damn ruthless but also charming and kind. It’s what makes him good at turning. Aziraphale is just a regular Soho bookseller who loves his shop and books and good food and wine when he’s approached by a woman claiming to be MI5, wanting to recruit him for espionage. The poor man is too trusting and gets the shock of his life when he’s approached by a charming but dangerous-looking man also claiming to be MI5. Crowley recruits Aziraphale to double cross a double crosser and Aziraphale takes to espionage like a duck to water. Danger, hijinks, and sex ensue.
Old Vines by sevdrag (E, 189k)
A.Z. Fell, one of the most respected names in wine and food blogging, has been sent on assignment with his assistant Warlock Dowling to spend six months in California Wine Country. Under direction (by his boss, Gabriel) to use this experience to double his blog followers and write a novel, Aziraphale is both excited and anxious about the opportunity. Anthony J. Crowley is the owner and viticulturalist of Ecdyses, a winery that unexpectedly fell into his lap eleven years ago when he hit rock bottom. He may be in debt, yeah, but he’s paying off his loans — and despite pressure from his lenders and their team of inspectors, Crowley has found a kind of contentment tending his little corner of terroir and producing extraordinary wine. Crowley’s old vines are the heart of his vineyard, and he’s never let anyone in. Crowley finds Aziraphale intriguing; Aziraphale finds Crowley enthralling. Turns out a famous wine expert and an experienced viticulturalist can still learn things from each other. The summer of 2019 unfolds.

Best written Skip Wescott Fanfics
Peter's got a secret. It's starting to affect his relationship with Tony. Tony vows to figure it out, and he does not like what he finds.
Peter drew in a shaky breath, feeling the burn as tears fell down his cheeks. “I know you want me to be your- your- I don’t know, but I just can’t be that for someone again, it’s so- so much, and you’re married, you have a daughter, and it’s- I’m sorry. It’s just, it’s too- and I don’t even like you like that, I- I’m sorry.”
Now he’d done it, now Mr. Stark would be looking at him with a heartbroken expression, hurt and betrayed and…
Peter looked up at the man only to see nothing but shock and confusion on his features.
“Peter… Do you think that I have… romantic feelings for you?”
“I was nine.”
This is how it starts. This is how the pure, agonizing hatred towards someone Tony’s never known, will never know, begins. This is how the rug is pulled from his feet. With three, seemingly insignificant words
Peter, one hand fisting in the wool of Tony’s sweater, keeps his eyes locked on the television screen and lets Tony do what he does best of all: shield him. He metaphorically laps at his wounds. Slowly eases back into his body, like trying on stiff new denim. Breathes, and at once feels at ease. Peter is here, on Tony’s ugly couch, with Tony, who smells like black coffee and plain Pringles and metal, and Peter is never safer than he is when they’re like this.
Skip’s out of jail and that’s a good thing.
This becomes a sort of mantra, and Peter’s almost able to believe it.
In the privacy of his mind, Ned liked to pretend he could accurately measure his best friend’s sudden switch in a mockery of the abbreviated B.S. and A.S.
Before Skip and After Skip.
There's a scary scar above Peter's hip and Tony is concerned.
"They got me a babysitter," Peter continues, forcibly tearing himself back to the present. He swallows. "His name.. his name was Skip."
He hasn’t said that name in so long that it sounds foreign on his tongue, like a language he was once fluent in but forgot.
He had never, ever expected to see Skip again, not in this lifetime at least. He’d feared it, sure, had nightmares about it, of course, but the rational part of his mind concluded that it wasn’t a very plausible scenario. Not once, never in a million years would he have expected to find that monster in the Starks’ home.
Where did you learn that?” Tony asks, voice raw.
The twiddling stops. That’s all Tony can make out from the outskirts of his line of vision. He’s not ready to lift his head from his hands yet and look at the kid.
“Um, Google?”
“Geez.” The things kids Google these days. Tony has half a mind to ask what drove Peter to search ways to stop a panic attack, but the better part of him leaves the question untouched.
