    Summary

    “I know you got a secret identity and all, but let me know if you ever need a job.”

    Peter couldn’t help the snort. If only the man knew that he was already working for him. “I’ll let you know.”

    There must have been something off about his tone, because Tony narrowed his eyes at him and just stared for a few seconds. Peter tilted his head innocently.

    “No way you already work for me.”

    An innocuous comment sparks an idea that Spider-Man is a Stark Industries employee. Which he is, but surely that’s not enough to out him, is it?

    Tony will not rest until his crazy theory gets proven correct.

    Summary

    “What is this about?” he asked. The expression on Officer Graham’s face was reluctant but kind, so he doubled down. “I need to know first, or I’m going home.”

    She sighed, gaze distant as she thought over the pros and cons of telling him the truth. Finally, she nodded and spoke up again. “We had a hit in the system. A missing person case.”

    All Peter wanted to do was help. He didn't expect to discover that his entire life was a lie.

    So much for returning home before dinner.

    (This is how Peter found out that he's Tony Stark's long-lost son.)

    Summary

    The problem is, no one knows how to market Ilya Rozanov's (in his own words) sexy Euro masculinity to an audience of white straight men.

    He needs the best. And if it happens to be his secret lovers' mother who despises his very existence, so be it.

    This is Ilya Rozanov

    Yuna

    This is a fucking joke, right?

    Summary

    Playing on the same team for the past two years made some things both easier and more complicated; they didn’t need to juggle separate practices or games, but it also meant that one couldn’t fill in for the other when non-hockey responsibilities cropped up. For that, they were exceedingly grateful for Yuna and David. It hadn’t taken long for them to slip into the roles of doting grandparents, despite having no time to prepare. Olesya had already been a rambunctious toddler when she first charged into their lives, and they’d taken each day since in stride.

    — I'd Share A Life (And You'd Share A Life) by noedovenest

    [Or: Yuna meets Olesya. Alternatively: Yuna unexpectedly becomes a grandmother.]
