Summary
‘...until Mr Mitchell can prove to the court that he is able to provide a safe and stable home environment for Mr Bradshaw, he will be placed under the care of the state for the foreseeable future.’
The room was silent.
Pete’s jaw fell open, and his heart felt as if it would burst out of his chest at any moment. He wasn't getting custody of Bradley.
His throat felt like it was closing in on itself and his legs went weak at the knees. He had to sit down to keep from falling over. The court was taking custody of the boy that he had been a second father to for all his life.
Bradley wasn’t theirs.
Or: In the aftermath of Goose's death, Pete refused to even think about the what if's, but years later he realises how big of a mistake that was.

‘Hate to say I told you so.’ Bradley commented as he joined Jake by the heater. He had to admit, the warmth was nice.
‘Go away.’ Jake muttered, his hands held dangerously close to the metal heater. The blue tint that had begun to show on his lips, that Bradley had been decidedly ignoring, had begun to recede, and he was looking noticeably more relaxed.
Bradley sighed, why was he like this? ‘Cmon Jake, you’re freezing,’

Or Jake is a stubborn shit and Bradley has to deal with it :]

Summary
"You'll look after my boy, won't you, Pete?" Ruth's eyes were fixed straight ahead, her tone tense.
Pete turned to her, solemn look crossing his face, quite unlike the usually cocky boy. "Of course, ma'am. I'll bring him home in one piece."
Or - Pete does not in fact bring Nick home in one piece.
A songfic based around Kate Bushes song Army Dreamers.

Summary
"Well, I'm sorry I care. Sorry for just trying to help," he stated testily, sarcasm lacing his tone.
"I don't need you, Wire. When will you get that into your thick skull?" Newt's words were tinged with a mix of frustration and sadness, his voice a poignant reflection of his inner turmoil.
Wire froze, his eyes studying Newt's features desperately, searching for something, anything, that could help him understand. He felt nothing but love and care for the boy in front of him, but he was being pushed away so firmly, despite his offers for help. "Newt-"
"I think you should leave." Newt's tone was firm and harsh.
Wire took a breath "But, I-“
"Just go Wire." Newt shook his head, his features unreadable. Wire swallowed, his stomach curling.
A10- The Lost One, AKA Wire, wakes up in the glade with nothing but the clothes on his back.

Summary
Penny Parker feels the Avengers and the Accords closing in on her even when she’s not wearing the Spider-Man suit, so she lawyers up in advance.
It’s just her luck that the Avengers are convinced they can lure in the notoriously evasive Spider-Man by using his photographer girlfriend as bait.
Nelson & Murdock (and, from afar, Deadpool) object to that.

Summary
"“Uh huh. Sure.” He mumbled. He was trying to figure out what to do about this strange kid when he heard the kid suck in a breath — barely audible, but noticeable to Matt — when there was the sound of fabric rubbing over uneven skin, skin that smelled, concerningly, of blood, a tinge of metal, and a hint of gunpowder.
Holy shit, was this kid shot?
After another moment of listening, Matt realized he could hear his muscles moving around a small object, the movement sending out fresh hints of that same metallic smell.
The bullet was still in his leg.
A kid was walking around with an actively bleeding bullet wound with the bullet still in his leg as if it were any other day, the only indication to anyone without enhanced senses being his slight limp as he made his way to the stairs."
Or: Peter is struggling and alone after the events of No Way Home, but at least his new neighbor (who also happens to be his old lawyer) seems pretty nice [aka the origins of team red]

“What?” The annoyance in Dennis’s tone faltered the slightest bit, but he still sighed tiredly. “Mac, how much have you had to drink?”
