Summary
What, outside of the famed Parker luck that Peter has become painfully familiar with, can explain his disaster of a life?
Confidence hadn’t kept his parents’ plane from falling from the sky. Preparation hadn’t stopped the copper bullets from ripping through the flesh of his aunt and uncle, tearing Peter for the second time in his short life from the people tasked with taking care of him.
Out of the hundreds of New York foster homes, Peter has the delightful opportunity of being placed into a house where the air is constantly thick with tension, the foster father a venomous snake, lurking for what seemed to be hours in an eerie calm until it's finally time for him to strike.
---
Peter has to navigate the events of Spider-Man: Homecoming while having Thaddeus Ross as a deadbeat foster parent. Can Bucky's help finally break Peter out of the cycle of dead, absent, and abusive adults that he's found himself trapped in?

Summary
There would be no more late nights of mopping his father’s vomit up from the foyer while the man sleeps off the hangover that would undoubtedly have him screaming Harry’s faults down the long hallways of the house once he finally wakes.
Harry won’t have to hear any more drunken ramblings about how he stole his mother’s youth, how his parents were so happy before they were burdened with a child.
So what if he was written out of his father’s will before he could even walk? He won’t turn eighteen for years, and there’s no way that he won’t be able to figure something out by then.
Besides, how bad could foster care actually be?
