On the car ride home after the monsters see Barbie:
Neil, kisses Andrew's cheek:
Andrew: I hate you
Neil, grinning:
Andrew: Don't. Neil don't.
Neil: I'm just Ken, anywhere else I'd be a ten
Andrew: Stop it
Neil: I'M JUST KEN
Nicky: WHERE HE SEES LOVE, YOU SEE A FRIEND
Andrew: I will hurt you
Kevin, high on feminism: WHAT WILL IT TAKE FOR HIM TO SEE THE MAN BEHIND THE TAN?
Andrew: Don't make me turn this car around
Everyone staring at Aaron expectantly:
Aaron: No
Everyone still staring:
Aaron, sighing: And fight for me?
Everyone: I'M JUST KEN

Neil: So Bee was speaking with me and advised that I start breaking down my walls and let people in. So I've decided that I'm going to break down the fourth wall.
Neil, looking into the camera : Hi there, my name is Neil Josten, and I used humour and sarcasm as a coping mechanism.
#Betsy: Neil that is not what I meant#Neil: how else do i break down walls#Betsy: you tell people about your feelings or ancedotes from your life#neil: oh okay#neil to the foxes: One time Kevin and i watched my dad butcher a man alive and Kevin cried like a little bitch#kevin: NEIL!#neil: Betsy told me to!#andrew: haha nerd#betsy: we will be talking about appropriate responses to trauma and how that was not one of them#Andrew: im self destructive#Andrew: kevin drinks aaron did drugs and neil runs and starts wars with mafia#Andrew: we're fine#Betsy: okay neil#andrew: rude#this ended in inchorerent chaos#im very sorry#andrew minyard#all for the game#the foxhole court#aaron minyard#david wymack#dan wilds#matt boyd#renee walker#alison reynolds#neil josten#nicky hemmick#betsy dobson#aftg

Neil: You are the love of my life, and I would do anything within reason to make you happy.
Andrew: I would be happy if you ate, stayed hydrated, and got a reasonable amount of sleep.
Neil: I said within reason, Drew. How about I murder someone for you?
Nicky, who was most definitely not eavesdropping: So murder is within reason, but proper self-care isn't?
Neil: Well, obviously. What kind of question is that?

Hi! Hope you don't mind me asking but do you know any good fics where Peter gets threatened/bullied by an SI employee and Tony comes to the rescue? tysm for your time and feel free to ignore this ask if I'm bothering you 💙
Oh! I love getting asks like this! There's nothing better than being able to track down some fun fics and share them with others! In this case, I KNEW I had read things like this before but I couldn't put my finger on any of them. So. I went for help. Haha. I asked the Irondad Readers and Writers Discord if they knew of any fics that fit the bill. And oh boy, did they come through! I read every single one of them before posting this and they are all so good!! I hope you enjoy! Don't forget to kudos and comment!
Fic Recs Below the Cut!
A Big Security Issue by FotiBrit
Rated G
When Peter lost his Stark Industries Staff ID, Tony handed the kid his own. That was never an issue, until Peter had to check in at the front desk.
The Incident by Blasphemmky
Rated T
He watches the usual throng of people enter into the building, scanning their ID badges with Theresa before heading to the elevator. Scientists and engineers and representatives, all of them familiar.
Until a kid makes his way to the reception desk, a threadbare backpack slung over his shoulders. John cocks an eyebrow, watching him. The boy can't be more than 5'5. A tiny fucking pipsqueak.
Bullying by Emily_F6
Rated T
When Peter gets an internship with Stark Industries, he's excited to learn as much as he can...until one of the other interns sets his sights on him.
Excuse You, That is My Emotional Support Intern by Neicy286
Rated T
It started with an invitation. The invitation. If there was a real world equivalent to the Wayne Gala, then the Archimedes Gala was it.
In which Peter is invited to a gala, and someone's a big fat meanie. But Tony fixes it though.
Be There (To Clear the Fog) by pandaluna
Rated G
Five times Tony heard Peter was in trouble and jumped in to fix the problem, and one time there was nothing neeed fixing.
Tony's intern just seems to always end up in some kind of trouble and he feels like he has to help since he picked the kid on his own. That's it. There's nothing more to it, of course.
On another note, Spider-Man is seemingly going through mood swings that Tony has no idea how to deal with, so he just throws food his way and hopes it makes everything better.

Matt, crying: Oh
Meanwhile:
Neil: Drew, am I annoying?
Andrew: Exorbitantly.
Andriel: *makes out*

Neil: Wait, you can't kill me! I have a husband!
Kidnapper: And what makes you think I care about that?
Neil: Oh no this isn't a plea for mercy. It's a warning.
Kidnapper: Wha-
Andrew *breaking down the door, knives in hand looking marginally pissed*: Neil.
Neil: Oooh, you're in trouble now.
Andrew: Bold of you to assume I'm here for him. I warned you what would happen if you got kidnapped again junkie.
#Kidnapper: Plot twist#Kidnapper: Like you wanna team up bro? i was just gonna hold him hostage for money but he is kind of annoying.#Kidnapper: Dude would not stfu. kept trying to convince me I'd make a great backliner if i wanted a career change#Kindapper: Then he started insulting me when i told him i was a baseball fan#Andrew: *stabs him*#Neil: You really dont have any patience huh?#Andrew: I married you didnt i? i have the patience of a fucking saint now stfu and untie yourself#Neil: youre hot when youre playing white knight#Neil: Ooooo does this make me your princess?#Andrew: *slaps duct tape on his mouth*#Andrew: At least he was useful for something#lowkey makes me wanna write a fic now#this is so stupid im sorry#andrew minyard#all for the game#the foxhole court#aaron minyard#david wymack#dan wilds#matt boyd#renee walker#alison reynolds#neil josten#kevin day#nicky hemmick#aftg#andreil

Andrew: *walks into his room at columbia, flicking on the light*
Nicky: *is sitting at his desk with his fingers steepled and a sly smile on his face*
Andrew: *lowering his knives* what are you doing here?
Nicky: How long have you been in love with Neil?
Andrew:
Andrew:
Andrew: That's disgusting and wrong. I dont even get - why would you - I can't believe you just accused me of something so absolutely vile. I've never been in love with anyone let alone such a, a creature. It's none of your- You have the nerve, the audacity in fact- I just can't even. Neil is nothing. It would be a compliment to even call him a waste of my time because that implies I give him my time. You know what? Maybe you're I love with him. Yeah maybe you're simply trying to throw me off, hm? Check mate.
Nicky: Oh, so for a while then.
Andrew: He was running towards me and he was so pretty and I panicked and smashed an exy stick into his stomach.
Nicky:
Nicky: THAT IS NOT HOW YOU HIT ON SOMEONE ANDREW!

I like haunted houses in theory BUT I have no idea how to react when the actors speak to you. They ask me a question and I just… answer it…
The scariest part of a haunted house is the unscripted social interaction.

Spideypool RP
My RP Style:
- Must be 18+
- Characters must also be 18+
- Semi-Lit to Literate responses, preferably like 1 paragraph minimum, but replies can be short to help the flow of the RP. Sometimes less is more.
- No Omegaverse, 😔 sorry. Mpreg is fine on occasion, depending on the circumstances.
- No underage Spidey 🤏🤨 I kind of prefer basing my Spideypool off the comics, but Andrew Garfield’s Spidey is fine. (Disclaimer: I’m not a comic expert either)
- I don’t care who I write as, so that’s up to you.
- NSFW + Dark themes are fine, that’s sort of inevitable with Deadpool.
Plot Ideas:
- College!AU
- Deadpool is hired to kill Spiderman
- Peter and Wade meet at Weapon X
- Peter B. Parker post-divorce meets Wade Wilson after Vanessa dies
- Psych Ward!AU
- Peter meets Wade after Gwen dies, they work and live together for convenience. Until feelings grow.
We can work with some of these plots, or any ideas you’ve got! Just interact with this post or DM me
