    Summary

    Regret (n.)
    1. A feeling of sadness over something that has been done, or has not been done
    2. To express sadness over something that has happened

    Regret (v.)
    1. “A bit of paperwork here, some credits there, and your brother will just disappear,” Motti had said. “And there’s nothing you can do about it.”

    That feeling of sadness, of despair, of panic, of fear, of memories that keep you awake at night. That moment when you reach out for someone, but they are not there, and you cannot stop the feeling that it is all your fault. Worse, there is nothing you can do about it.

    Summary

    Having Ned and MJ back was like realizing, after months of trying desperately to assemble the puzzle of his life, that he’d been missing a vital piece all along.

    It wasn’t that Peter hadn’t been trying hard enough, or that he couldn’t see the picture clearly in his mind. He wasn’t lacking the intelligence, lacking the drive, lacking the desire. He wasn’t inadequate; he hadn’t failed. The journey wasn’t futile. He’d just lost something important along the way.

    Sure, the edges were a bit rough. The final image wasn’t quite as bright as it might have been had all the pieces not been lost or rained upon or trampled over in the first place; there was some damage that would be eased with time, and some that wouldn’t – but it was, finally, complete.

    For the first time in nearly four years, Peter felt whole.

    And then came the question:

    Once the puzzle is whole, where does it go?

    -----

    Peter has been a great many things over the past six months. He has been an addict, a patient, a survivor. He has been shattered, picked up off the concrete, and repaired. He has been elated; he has been heartbroken; he has been sorry.

    Now, he has to figure out what comes after sorry.

    Summary

    Harley had said something three days earlier. It was offhanded and immediately forgotten by him, while Peter continued to think about it for the next seventy-two hours.

    “Sorry, Parker – it’s family dinner night.”

    Family dinner night.

    And family, apparently, didn’t include Peter Parker.

    So, maybe he’d been spending the past three days passive aggressively talking about all the things Mr Stark and he had in common that Harley couldn’t relate to. Maybe he’d been pulling Iron Man out and specifically searching for danger that he would normally avoid or leave to the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen or some other vigilante. Maybe he’d been solely focused on giving a metaphorical middle finger to Harley by having oh so many inside jokes with Mr Stark.

    Peter knew it was stupid.

    As the spiderling falls deeper and deeper into a weird, teen angst hole, Tony struggles to keep up with what's on the kid's mind. His one saving grace is that he has an official intern closer to Peter's age that can relate to him better, right?
