    Summary

    “So,” Natasha says smoothly, raising an eyebrow. “You’re Spiderman.”

    The kid is practically hyperventilating, staring at her with those damn eyes. “You . . . you . . .”

    “Relax,” she says, heading over to her secret stash of cocoa. “If I wanted to kill you, you’d be dead. Do you want some hot chocolate?”

     

    OR: The first time Natasha meets Stark's kid, it's almost three in the morning; spiders don't sleep, after all. Natasha is just used to being the only spider.

    Summary

    Etho shuffled off the bus, grateful to be free from the suffocating stench of whatever perfume the stranger next to him had been donning. The early morning air was crisp as it hit Etho’s lungs. A sheet of fog had settled itself out on the athletic fields. Despite wanting to stand here, staring out at the mist, he forced himself to look forward. A pit of dread claimed its own space in his stomach, threatening to push its current contents out the way they came. He trudged forward, watching as the doors gradually got closer, a sinister mouth preparing to swallow him whole.
    OR
    High school is hard. Etho usually gets through most of it on his own. Sure, he has friends, but they don't need to be burdened with all of his problems. It gets a bit harder to get through it alone when there's someone that you actually want to talk to though.

    Summary

    When Scar was a child, seeing the strings had felt like a blessing.

    He’d still been full of wonder, young and not yet burdened by the heartbreak of the world. It’d been marvellous to grow up like that, surrounded by dazzling bursts of colour. He’d been an easily amused baby, and Scar can only assume that he saw the colours even then, entertained by their shifting nature. Shades of purple, orange, yellow, blue, green, black, brown, and red everywhere he looked.

    Of course, now seeing the strings is less of a blessing, and more of a...

    Well, a lucrative business practice.
