A step-by-step look at my drawing process (commission edition) ✨
1) My client ( in this case @/brxkenvalley; ig) gives me their pitch and references. In this case, I was asked to draw their oc in whatever pose I thought would suit them and so I came up with these:
They’re very rough and I focused more on gesture and expression than getting the details right. I also asked them questions clarifying some of their designs and their personality traits (which is a really helpful thing for commissioners to provide so that the artist has a better grasp on the character)
2) my client then asked for C. with an altered expression resembling B. so I made minor alternations to the draft and they decided on the one on the right
3) After approval, i sketch out the character and I’ve taken to just cleaning up my sketch instead of doing lineart because that saves a lot of time
The annotations are me asking for some design clarifications because I wanted to make some alternations so that the piece looked better/more complete (esp cuz I thought straight horns did not look very good on the hat). The quick greyscale shading was just a temporary placeholder to separate the elements clearly. As for references, I use a combination of many from google and from pictures I’ve taken myself. For example, the hands here are based partly on an online reference, partly from my own hand, and partly from muscle memory of me practicing and knowing how to make a hand look like it makes sense
4) flats. This was tough because the reference I was given had the character’s whole colour scheme as similar shades of very dark grey and so I took some creative liberty to adjust the colours a little to make the separate parts pop out more
You can also see the horn fix and added details on the hat. Not much else to say except I stuck very much to cool colours for the whole thing to fit the character’s mysterious vibes
5) Rendering/painting. Everything prior to this was done on procreate but my brushes on Clip Studio Paint are just far superior so rendering was done there
This is what takes the longest and is where I merge my sketch and flats layer and paint over everything (with the help of the magic tool and lasso tool to select segments according to colour). I think it might’ve taken around 4 hours? I used a lot of different brushes to try and get a varied texture and when I was satisfied, I exported it back over to procreate for colour correcting using different layer types and their in-built adjustment tool. I also used an add-glow correction layer with an airbrush on the white parts it pop out more, as well as give the character a more ethereal look
6) I ask my client if they want any minor changes and if not, I’ll email the file to them :)
And that’s my commission process! I don’t do all of these steps when I’m working on personal art (esp the planning) but occasionally, when I have a clear idea for a more complicated piece, I find planning really helpful. I could also do a process thing for a background piece if anyones interested, just lmk. Also feel free to ask questions if you have any and I hope this was clear!

Could we get some Gency hurt/comfort? Prompt: Genji experiences a nightmare after getting back from an exhausting mission a few hours earlier. As in, he-broke-into-a-cold-sweat-and-started-hyperventilating type or nightmare. Mercy is next to him, still awake, and sees him writhing and muttering in his sleep. She tries to wake him up or ease him to a calmer sleep after noticing this. (I just finished 2 month-long projects and am craving angst with a happy ending :D)
Hey thanks! And congrats on your project!!
I’m still pretty proud of the “Storm” fic I wrote back during Gency week... It would be nice to have some fluffy follow-up.
-----
When they got back to the watchpoint, the first priority was getting a shower. They let Mei handle the brunt of the debriefing while Symmetra was quickly trundled off to the infirmary, Pharah quick at her side. Orisa, meanwhile, was brought to Torbjorn’s workshop for a deep sanitizing. In the ride back, Genji had been able to mentally pass off the ghostly residual sensations of being pushed and pulled by the water to the rockings of the dropship, but as he set foot on the solid ground of the watchpoint, he knew this mission would stick with him more than most. He wasn’t sure why. Perhaps it was the helplessness of facing down the very environment as an enemy... perhaps it was the odd combination of being seen as an enemy omnic by that old woman, then having to actually fight Null Sector, but as he and Mercy scrubbed themselves pink and raw in the shower, he tried to lose himself in the heat and sensation. He tried to focus on Mercy’s fingers raking up through his hair from the base of his skull as she worked in shampoo, tried to focus on the feel of her own hair between his fingers, the visual of her shoulders bunching up, and the sound of her breath as he returned the favor, but still, the mission lurked at the back of his mind.
You could have done better, he thought, Should have worked faster.
The first night was thankfully swift and dreamless. And the next day they had a proper debriefing and a quick rundown of how the authorities were handling the situation without their intervention. Overwatch had been enough to scare Null Sector off, it seemed, and as disturbing as the depth of the hurricane’s damage had been, Winston and Mei had agreed that the authorities had more relief efforts handled from there and that Overwatch would only intervene again if there was another Null Sector attack. Not a clean ending to the mission, but then again, hardly any mission did end cleanly. What was Overwatch now if not a desperate stopgap against the worst?
“Genji?” Mercy’s voice managed to snap him out of a fixating train of thoughts as they got ready for bed.
“Mm?” He was setting components of his armor on their frame in the cleaning and cooling compartment embedded in the wall of their bedroom.
“You haven’t been talking much since the debriefing,” said Mercy, “Are you doing all right?”
A short breath huffed out of him. ��...we’re always asking each other that,” he said quietly, setting the last armor component on its frame and stepping backwards to sit on the edge of the bed as the compartment closed.
“It’s a worthwhile question,” she said, her weight sinking into the mattress behind him.
“I’m fine,” said Genji, rubbing at his temple, “Just... need some sleep, that’s all.”
Mercy had already wiggled under the comforter behind him and she gave him a slight smile as he looked over his shoulder at her. He half-crawled half-collapsed against the bed and managed to slink under the sheets next to her. There was a few seconds where they were both staring at each other, their heads against their respective pillows. He could feel her gray-blue eyes searching him, that worried scan that tried not to pry too deeply, but still sank into him all the same. He reached a hand forward and tucked a lock of hair back from her face.
“I’m fine,” he said, “Really.”
Her lips thinned but she just leaned forward and kissed him on the eyebrow.
He didn’t want to think about how much he still felt the push and pull of the water even against the stillness of their mattress. He didn’t want to think about what fears flooded into his mind as he looked at her slowly closing eyes. It’s sleep, he thought, surrendering his body to that residual exhaustion and trying to will his mind into silence, Just sleep.
And there were a few hours of quiet, comforting darkness. But sinking deeper into that darkness, his mind, ever dissatisfied, was poking around the mission. What could have been done better? They already had the setback of having the storm cut into their comms. And that Omnic... Null Sector wasn’t generally in the habit of going full Gwishin like that. Why get bolder in a little town like Terrapin? And then there were the visuals. Unbidden, distorted. Mercy, shoving Mei out of the way before being seized herself. The shock of his own body hitting the water after her. The way her face looked ghost-white in that murky green-brown water. The way lack of oxygen was just starting to make her eyes go out of focus. He wasn’t swimming fast enough. A few seconds more--
“And you would be dead,” air sucked back into his lungs and he remembered the image of his own hands pushing up from a tatami mat. His father’s voice. He glanced up to see Sojiro and Hanzo kneeling on their cushions at the edge of the tatami, his own trainer, giving him a derisive look. How old was Genji then--10? 11? “Thank you, Fukuda-Sensei,” Sojiro had said, “I think we’ve seen enough.”
“I can do it,” Genji was insisting, still breathless, “I can do it! Let me try again!”
“No, this isn’t going anywhere,” said Sojiro. He glanced to Hanzo. “Hanzo, you will spar with Genji until he is up to par with Fukuda-Sensei’s standards.”
“What?” Hanzo protested, “But I was supposed to have archery lessons with Mom!”
“Hanzo, Genji will be your right hand when you take over the clan, we can get him all the trainers we can, but in the end, he is your responsibility.”
He remembered Hanzo’s glare burning into him, then. He remembered the impact of Hanzo’s punches and kicks when they sparred.
“You ruin everything!” Genji remembered Hanzo taking him by the shoulder and slamming him into the floor, “I can’t be a ninja if I’m always babysitting you!”
“I’m going to be a ninja too!” Genji had fired back, scrambling to get back to his feet before a kick sent him rolling across the tatami.
“You’re not going to be anything,” Hanzo’s voice was furious and dark before the memory spiraled into red and pain.
“Hanzo--” it was over 10 years ago. Genji was looking at the bloody stump of his own arm before his eyes trailed up to his brother, blue light whirling around Hanzo’s arm. “Don’t---”
The dragon roared and surged around him and suddenly its impact was the impact of water.
And he was swimming toward her again. Not fast enough. Not strong enough. And he hesitated on cutting the wings. Stupid! His lungs were burning. The water was roiling around him. His arm was breaking apart, disassembling itself as he reached toward her in the water, the metal of the omnic in the depths shifting and cracking, brittle cracks turning to dragon scales, the violet turning to blue, those indifferent orange eyes coming apart into a great toothy maw rushing up to devour. But still he was swimming even though he didn’t seem to be moving forward in the water.
Stupid. Weak. Not strong enough. Not fast enough. You can’t save yourself so how could you ever hope to save--
“Genji--!”
That voice. That same voice that acted as his lighthouse in his days of unconsciousness following Hanzo’s attack. He felt a touch on his shoulder and flinched awake, panting.
“Genji...” he could make out the pale blue of the holo-clock on their bedside table reading 3:21 AM, and and he became very conscious of the cool dampness of his own sweat making the sheets stick to him. His eyes flicked up. Mercy was sitting up in the darkness, looking still somewhat ghostly in the glow of their holo-clock, but her hand on his shoulder was steady, warm.
“What--?” he said, his breath still short.
“You were--just breathe--You were having another nightmare,” she said, brushing some sweaty strands of hair away from his forehead.
“Oh...I--I’m sorry--” he said, readjusting himself, trying to ease out of the tangle of bedsheets, his breath steadying as he pushed himself up in bed to better face her.
“It’s nothing to apologize for,” she said, gently touching his cybernetic jaw.
He huffed a breath through his teeth, “I know, I just...” he sighed and looked down, “You’d think after everything I’ve gone through with you and Zenyatta, this wouldn’t...”
“It was a rough mission,” said Mercy with a shrug, “Rougher than usual.”
“I know,” Genji said again, “But--I mean--between the two of us--if anyone should be having nightmares after that...”
She gave his shoulder a slight squeeze and smiled wearily, “Oh don’t worry, I’m sure I’ll have plenty of nightmares in the future.”
“I didn’t mean--I don’t want---” Genji’s mind was a scramble of sleepiness and coming down from a panic.
“I know,” her knuckles trailed at his temple.
He closed his eyes, leaning the side of his face into her hand. Slowly, gently, she let her weight sink back against her own pillow, but her hand glided down from his face to his shoulder to motion him to lie down with her. He did so, but lying on his back rather than facing her, staring at the ceiling.
“I dreamt of Hanzo, again,” he said quietly, and the slight shff of the pillow next to him told him a new alertness had flooded into her.
“He can’t hurt you here--” Mercy started.
“It’s... not about him hurting me... well it is, but...” Genji sighed, “I don’t know if I want him back in my life because I really want to help him, or if it’s because I don’t want.... that... to be all the memories I have of my blood family. Or maybe...” his voice dropped a little, “Maybe I still feel like I have to prove myself to him.”
“But you beat him back in Hanamura,” said Mercy.
“I know,” Genji pressed the fingertips of his prosthetic hand to his forehead, “But that was--it was complicated. I knew it would not be as simple as sitting down at a table with him and saying ‘Yo, not dead’ and Zenyatta said the clan didn’t exactly give us the means to communicate in a healthy--” he caught himself and huffed, “I’m sorry. I’m rambling. You’re sleep deprived enough without dealing with me.”
“Genji, I’m not ‘dealing with you,’ I love you,” said Mercy, curling herself around him.
“Mm,” Genji conformed to her shape as well, tucking his head against that slope between her collarbone and breast.
“You looked after me back in that storm and I’m looking after you now. It’s what we do,” she said softly as she stroked a hand down his back, “And if I wake up screaming and crying about Zurich or my parents, you’ll be here for me. And if you need to be rescued on a mission, I’ll be there for you... and there’s the team, too,” Her voice was trailing off with sleepiness, but hands tensed against his back slightly, “And... if Hanzo comes... We’ll figure something out. We’ve faced scarier things than him.”
“...I’d put ‘giant amphibious Null Sector crab mech’ about on par with Hanzo,” said Genji with a slight chuckle.
A “hm,” that was a bit too sleepy to be a chuckle fell out of her and a few beats of silence passed.
“Angela?”
“Mm?”
“Thank you.”
She kissed the top of his head. “I’m here if you need anything,” she said quietly.
“Mm-hm,” he said quietly, but as he listened to her breath and heartbeat, those physical sensations of the water seemed to go from turbulent dizziness to a gentle push and pull, like a wave on the shore. This, he thought, listening to her breath as he drifted off to sleep, I just need this.

Love is an open door
Pairing: Bucky x F!Reader
Summary: There are two new people that Bucky meet. Two new souls that would change Bucky’s life completely.
Warnings: Fluff, lot of fluff, Bucky as an uncle.
A/N:I know it is waaaay past the deadline @valkyriesryde and I am soooo super sorry, but I am finnally a bit of free time, so decided to post it even if it’s too late </3 I’m sorry!
P.S. It is still not beta’d so I’m sorry, it will be when I find some more time.
Words: 2400+
Bucky hated missions like that. The solo missions that Steve insisting on sending him. It was always whether boring or too troublesome to take much care about. He was away for a week and all he wanted to do now was take a quick shower, snuggle on the couch and keep up with Star Wars. Something Sam insisted on watching. And as much as he hated to admit it, he actually enjoyed it. Despite the confusing order of the movies and the fact that it was after all recommended by no other than Sam damn Wilson.
Yes, a shower, movie and a bunch of unhealthy fast food that would be burned by the serum quicker than he would like. This was all he wanted. Just some quiet time for himself. Away from the mission, away from the guns and knives and away from the annoying voice in his head telling him his every move. The comms were a blessing but he mostly saw them as a curse. Annoying piece of technology that made him feel controlled again.
"Welcome, Sergeant Barnes." The voice in the elevator welcomed him. Despite being used to it, it still amazed him at the whole idea of the AI. He could say a lot about Tony Stark but Bucky always thought of him as a genius, maybe even bigger than Howard.
"Friday, please tell Steve I will give him the rapport tomorrow. I'm off duty today!" He smiled hearing a somehow amused voice. He knew his best friend enough to expect him to not be happy about it, but Bucky didn't care. He needed time off.
His thoughts, however, were interrupted when he heard two voices in the living room. One of a female and the second one of… a kid? This wasn't Morgan for sure, and definitely not Pepper. He frowned and started walking faster, uneasy about new voices in the background. His hand on the knives holder on his hips and the second one ready to block. Call him paranoid but he went through enough to know that sometimes you can't even trust kids.
"Can we watch Lion King?" He stopped at the doors seeing two figures sitting on his couch. The little girl had a long, blonde hair and was already in her pyjamas. She was happily jumping next to a young woman that was going through the available movies, smiling softly at the girl. Bucky didn't know what to do. He didn't know the two of them, and it made him bit uneasy and a little on edge when the woman turned and noticed him standing at the doors.
"Mr Barnes!" You exclaimed making him frown even more. How the hell did you know him while he had no idea about you? "Apologies, Steve told us no one will be here for a while so we can use the bigger TV." At the name of his best friend the little girl turned and smiled brightly.
"Is uncle Steve coming as well?" Uncle Steve? What the hell. He just stood there in a complete shock not understanding what was going on.
"Who are you?", he kicked himself internally when his voice came out defensive and grumpy.
"I am Alice. And this is Y/N!" The little girl answered. It was just now that Bucky realised the girl was wearing an adorable Captain America pyjama, that melted his heart just a little bit. He still heard the girl’s little voice calling his best friend 'uncle Steve'. It was adorable. "We work here!" She chimed in happily, puffing her chest. His eyes widened.
"What?" He mumbled completely shocked. He looked at the woman who started to chuckle uncontrollably.
"I'm sorry Sergeant Barnes, it must be confusing." You finally added hugging the little girl to your side. "Let me start again." You introduced yourself and he repeated the name in his head to make sure he won't forget it. "We haven't met yet. I was working from home since you came to the Tower, but I am happy to see the knives treat you well.” He looked down to the weapon that has become his second right hand. He loved them. They were not only amazingly comfortable but also weighed almost as they were made only for him and no one else. “I work in the weapon development apartment.” He nodded, slowly understanding. “Your knives were my first ‘personal attached’ weapon I made.”
“Personal attached?”
“You know. A weapon only for one person. Like the knives would work with your fingerprints, your hold and your way of moving. It's your own personal weapon”, You were smiling brightly, visibly proud of yourself.
“She’s smart, right?” The little girl interjected, sending Bucky one of her most beautiful smiles. He was confused, lost and completely taken off guard, when the girl’s little hand linked with his, pulling him towards the couch. “We’re about to watch Lion King 2, wanna join us?” His eyes were travelling from the beautiful little Angel, Y/N, the couch, TV and Alice’s hand on his metal hand.
“Alice…” You whispered seeing Bucky tensing with the touch. “Sergeant Barnes must be tired.” you turned towards the man and smiled apologetically. “I’m sorry she gets super excited whenever she meets new people. Especially that she was waiting to meet you.”
“Me?”
“Uncle Steve told us you are his bestest friend in the entire world!!” She exclaimed happily, tugging the man on the couch, making him sit down. “Can I call you Uncle Sergeant?” Y/N laughed out loud hearing Alice adorable slip.
“Sweety Sergeant isn’t a name.”
“Than why do you call him that way?” She pouted not understanding why you were laughing at her.
“Bucky is fine…” He finally managed to say something, still in a complete shock at what was happening.
“Bucky! Yes, Uncle Stevie told me he calls you Bucky. Can I call you Uncle Bucky, please, pretty please?” Barnes swallowed hard. He wasn’t used to people warming up to him so easily. He did not expect a little kid to be clinging to his metal hand with no fear. He would never expect such an Angel would ever look at him with so much happiness in her eyes. And he definitely did not expect to be called Uncle, by anyone.
“I’m sorry”, he turned towards you, who sat next to him. “She is normally better behaved, but Steve was telling her all those stories about your childhood, about the friendship and banters between the two of you, so she was really excited to meet you…” you bit her lip nervously and averted your eyes to look at Alice’s little hand on his left one. “If she… If we’re making you uncomfortable we can leave…” Bucky raised his brow and looked down at his hand.
“Am I annoying Uncle Bucky?” Alice asked, taking her hand away from him. He tensed seeing tears in her eyes and trembling of her bottom lip. He took a deep breath and decided to relax. As much as he needed a good explanation, he assumed it can be done between him and you after Alice goes to sleep.
“I’m just embarrassed, Alice”, he said smiling softly at the little girl. “I haven’t even watched the first part…”
“You have never seen Lion King!!!!!?” She screamed, looking away at you with a surprise plastered on her young face. “Can we please watch the first part again?” You looked at the man and whispered a quiet ‘thank you’. You could only imagine how difficult it was all for him, but were thankful to hide it for Alice, despite not even knowing her. You would only chuckle when Alice turned on the movie and positioned herself on Buck’s laps, excited to see a movie she watched about 15 times already.
*
“This song will be stuck in my head forever” Bucky growled making you chuckle. Alice fell asleep in the middle of the movie, but the man was determined to finish it.
“Yeah let it go can get annoying” You laughed, caressing Alice’s hair, softly to make sure you won’t wake her up. Well, today will be a day free of the shower. If she has finally gotten to sleep you were not gonna wake her up.
“Oh, no this one is ok” he sighed, rubbing his short beard. “The whole ‘Love is an open door’ thing.” You looked at him and burst to laugh, You covered your mouth not wanting to wake the little girl on your knees. “Seriously it was so stupid and cool at the same time.” He smirked hearing you stifled laugh. “You need help with her?”
You and Bucky have become friends since that first night. The night he has officially become the biggest Disney fan, becoming Alice’s best friend. When the little girl has finally fallen asleep after part two of the classic, you were able to talk to him and answer all the questions he had.
“Alice isn’t really mine…” You started shyly. You both sat on the couch opposite to each other. “My parents died when I was 14 and since then my brother focused on raising me. He was the most amazing man I knew.” You took a sip of a beer you brought for yourself and Bucky. “We were close. Really close. He was my both parents and brother. So it was natural that when he got married and had little Alice, I became her godmother.” Barnes frowned, slowly understanding where this was going. “They both died in a car accident six months after Alice was born. I was 19 that year, but I knew that there was no way in hell I would give her away. So since then, she is mine…”
“I’m sorry.” He whispered, finishing his beer. “I cannot even imagine how hard it was for you.”
“I managed somehow. I studied part-time. And two years ago when I was finishing my studies Tony fetched me and gave an internship that transformed into a proper job. And here I am.” you smiled at him, still nervously playing with the hem of your shirt. “Alice knows that I’m her aunt. I gave her a choice to how she wants to call me. For now, she sticks with my name and an aunt/niece relationship and I am ok with that.”
“She’s a great kid. You should be proud. I’m sure your brother is…” It was the longest thing he said to you, but you really appreciated it.
“She has so much from them. She is as outgoing as my brother. I am more stuck in books and movies. But I think she starts to…” You bit your lip nervously, realising how much you have been talking. “I’m sorry, I must be boring you…”
“Well, it would be a good idea to get to know the two of you, if I have just become an uncle.”
*
Since that day you, Alice and Bucky were spending free time together. Whether it was watching movies, going shopping, or playing some stupid games. He surprised you (and himself) with how amazing with kids he really was. Alice loved him truly. Even Steve got jealous when she was constantly asking about her ‘uncle Bucky’. And he spoiled her rotten. Whether it was with sweets or new toys and books. But who were you to ban him from doing it? You could only watch and smile softly at their relationship, happy that Alice had such a great family.
“I like that song”, you said after Bucky put Alice to her bed. Tony was good enough to make her an extra room in the Tower. Yeah, Alice was one spoilt brat with all those uncles and aunties around. “It’s innocent and quite adorable.” He raised his brow and poured you your favourite drink, sitting next to you at the coach. In the past weeks, you two not only became closer at a spiritual level but also physical. It all changed dramatically when you both fallen asleep watching a movie and woke up tangled in each other, with Sam Wilson grinning at you.
After that, you laid next to each other during the movies and fallen asleep next to each other. Sometime after that Bucky admitted that he slept much better when you were next to him. So after that whenever he had a nightmare he just walked to your bedroom and crawled next to you. He had good night sleep and you enjoyed a warm body next to you.
You both started to spend time with each other alone. Whether it was at the theatre, ice cream or morning runs that you decided to come back to. James was good enough to start an hour earlier and just job when you joined him when he had his ‘normal’ run.
And he enjoyed this time as much you did. You weren’t afraid of him. Never looked differently, and didn’t try to act in front of him. You were real, kind-hearted and so beautiful inside and outside.
“Of course you loved it. It was romantic”, he always laughed at your girly romantic side. Not to be mean but he did believe it was adorable. “It is cute.” You blushed and smiled a little. For the past days, Bucky has become more and more like Steve was telling her. A bit flirty and charming. He was sweet and you couldn’t argue that it was affecting you. You expected what he felt towards you and you were sure he knew your feelings. But you were afraid to do anything with those feelings. You could not bear for Alice to lose her loving uncle because you two would break up. “Go out with me.” it wasn’t a question, you noticed. “I can see you’re afraid, but let me show you that I will care for both of you. Alice and you, Y/N. I’m falling for you, fast and strong and I want you to be mine. And I want to be yours.” Those soft words from someone as strong as Bucky brought comfort to you. To you and your heart. You tried to avoid this conversation but now that he started it, your heart was telling you to believe him and so you did. You smiled softly and squeezed his metal hand.
“Can I just say something crazy?” His eyes widened and a quiet chuckle left his lips.
“I love crazy”, he quoted back, smiling at you softly.
“I would love to go on a date with you, James.”

Hope ~ Peter Parker (pt. III)
Summary: Y/N gears up and gets ready to go into battle, determined as ever to get her best friend and the love of her life, Peter Parker, back to her after 5 long years without him.
Fandom: MCU
Warnings: bit of swearing as per usual, depictions of violence, fighting, blood, death, and other gory scenes, angst and fluffy at the end. THIS DOES NOT FOLLOW MCU CANON! EVERYONE WHO HAS BEEN SNAPPED WAS AGED THE SAME AS THOSE WHO WEREN’T, SO PETER IS STILL THE SAME AGE OF Y/N, AND THEY ARE BOTH AROUND 21!!!!
Word Count: 10100 (28 pages wOAh)
A/N: finally, the long-awaited finale for Hope is here! Thanks to everyone who showed so much support for this series I love every single one of you honestly! Lmk if you guys want an epilogue? cause I don’t wanna be done with this series yet lol
If you haven’t read the first two parts, I would suggest looking through them before reading this!
PART 1 ~ PART 2 ~ MASTERLIST
~~~
Y/N walked towards the large platform in the middle of the room with the remaining of the Avengers, all in their rather cool looking matching time heist suits. She had to admit that she felt pretty badass, walking alongside the world’s mightiest heroes, going off to save the world like it was any other Tuesday for them.
After the young girl found out the formula of time travel and showed it to Tony, they had created a steady device and explained the idea to the team, which everyone quickly agreed with. They had been split up into three teams to go back in time and gather all six infinity stones before Thanos could find or use them. The teams were split up into Natasha, Clint, Nebula and Rhodey to get the soul and power stones, Thor, and Rocket to get the reality stone (or ether I guess), and Scott, Bruce, Tony, Steve and Y/N to get the Time, Mind, and Space stones.
The team now stood on the platform, putting their hands together as Steve performed his motivational speech, Y/N clung onto every word, still shocked that she got to suit up with them, and also a bit nervous. But she knew that she had the proper training if it came to it and if worse comes to worst, she has a quick solution handy in her pocket, one that she’s been carrying around for years.
“One round trip each. No mistakes, no do-overs,” Cap spoke as he looked around at everyone in the circle. “Most of us are going to a place we know; that doesn’t mean we should know what to expect. Be careful, look out for each other.” Y/N looked beside her up at Tony, who smiled reassuringly at her. “This is the fight of our lives, and we’re gonna win. Whatever it takes.” Steve finished his speech as they separated hands. Y/N looked over at Nat and gave her a smile, to which she returned.
“See you in a minute,” she says winking over at her mentee. She rolled her eyes but laughed. Suddenly the machine above them started to whir and spin around, and the mask on Y/N’s suit came up to cover her face. She felt her breathing start to go heavy but soon relaxed as Tony gave her hand a squeeze. She felt her body being compressed down into the size of an atom and swept away into the quantum realm, trying to control herself and following the lead of Tony just in front of her.
Before she knew it her feet hit the ground below her and her knees buckled from underneath her. As she regained her balance and looked up, her eyes went wide as she took in the scene in front of her. Just a few feet away, she saw the original Avengers, formed in a circle and gearing up for the infamous battle of 2012 against Loki. Y/N almost let out a squeal, remembering watching them do their work on the news when she was younger.
“You alright there?” Tony asked as he gave the girl a teasing smile. “You look like you’re about to explode.” Y/N shook her head but smiled back.
“Yeah I just, wow I was such a fan of you guys when I was younger,” she said as she watched on as they parted ways and did their own thing to take down as many aliens as possible. She then looked back up at Tony and smirked, one that reminded him of himself. “You guys were so much cooler back then. Now you’re all like, big old grampa’s.”
“Woah!” Tony said, giving her a playful look of pain as he grabbed his heart as if she had stabbed him with her comment. “Ouch, you know I understand why you would say that for Cap, cause he’s literally like, 100 years old but for me?”
“Guys we have to focus here,” Bruce caught their attention before Y/N could come back with another snarky comeback. “God sometimes I wonder how the two of you arent’s related, you’re like the same person nowadays.” Tony rolled his eyes, looking back out onto the street.
Before they could try and cross the street to get to the Stark Tower, a giant and raging green Hulk came down from the ground, pounding robots into the ground and flinging them around like ragdolls. As the group looked back at Bruce he covered his face, embarrassed of what he used to be. Steve told Bruce and Scott to find Dr. Strange and the time stone while he, Tony, and Y/N went up to the Stark tower to get the mind and space stone. As they got in and saw the past Avengers, Steve departed to get Loki’s staff, containing the mind stone, while Tony and Y/N worked on getting the Tesseract.
Y/N hid out in a small conference room out of sight, since Tony didn’t want her directly participating in the mission, much to her demise. She opened her laptop, which she disguised as a briefcase. She quickly typed in the password before pulling up multiple programs on the small screen, including a camera view from Tony’s glasses and a controller for a small robotic device she’d use to slip around without being realized.
“You sure this is gonna work, kid?” Tony asked quietly through the comm, causing Y/N to roll her eyes.
“Yes, Tony. I’ve been working on this model forever, I know what I’m doing,” she sassed back, looking through a small camera on the spider-shaped device she originally created with Peter. “Just remember I’m the reason we’re all here. I’m not just a pretty face, Stark.”
“Yeah yeah,” he mumbled as he watched his past self pack up the Tesseract in a briefcase. “Ok, spider-girl, release your little spiderling.” He says dramatically as the spider crawls from his pocket and makes its way onto the roof. Y/N chuckled at the nickname before focusing on controlling the spider-robot, the decoy lowering itself onto past Tony’s shoulder without anyone noticing. She couldn’t help but let out a little squeal at her excellent work. She watched through the small cam as the Avengers (excluding Hulk, who was told to take the stairs) made their way into the foyer of the building.
Tony watched along as his past self walks along with the other original Avengers and Loki. Alexander Pierce and his crew walked towards them as present-day Tony gave Y/N the signal to drop down. Y/N dropped the spider drone into Tony’s beard and then down onto his chest, the almost microscopic robot slipping through and into his arc reactor. She explores for a while until she finds what Tony had told her would cause the distraction.
“Is this really a good idea, Stark?” Y/N asked worriedly, not thinking of the consequences until then.
“Yeah, sure. It’ll only cause me to go into a tiny cardiac distract,” Tony stated casually, and Y/N’s eyes widened immediately, stopping the robot.
“What?!” She says, shaking her head. “Okay, no. No no no no no. I’m not gonna do this, we can figure out something else it’ll be fine.”
“Y/N, hey, calm down,” Tony says, his voice going lower. “Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. I mean I’m still here, so that’s gotta mean something right? If I died I wouldn’t be here.” Y/N scoffed at his words, but still, her hands were shaking, not wanting to hurt someone she had gotten so close to. She couldn’t bear if anything happened to him.
“No shit, Sherlock,” she whispers back into the comm, but loud enough for him to hear it. He rolled his eyes and continued to watch as Pierce tried to snatch the case away from his hands. “Time’s running out, Y/N. Pull my pin!”
“Okay, okay, give me a second.” She said as she maneuvered the tiny device to the said area with a small pin that helped keep everything in the arc reactor together. “But if you die, Tony, it’ll be your funeral. Literally.” She comments back to try and defuse the tension she felt. He quietly gave her another reassurance before giving the signal. With the small metal pinchers, Y/N pulled the cord in the arc reactor and through the other camera through Tony’s glasses she saw past Tony fall to the floor just as Pierce was taking the case containing the Tesseract from his hands.
The metal case fell to the floor with a hard clank and 2012 Tony followed soon after it, shaking slightly on the floor. Pierce and his crew members, as well as the other Avengers there, kneeled down beside him and tried to figure out what was wrong.
The small metallic robot climbed out from Tony’s reactor and pushed the case over to Tony, who was disguised as a staff of security. He discreetly picked it up and began walking away from the scene as medics began rushing to help the famous billionaire on the floor. What they didn’t know was that they weren’t as discreet as they thought.
“Good job, kid. Meet me in the alley, I’m gonna-” but was cut off as a big green angry hulk burst through the door, knocking down Tony and flinging the tesseract out of its case and down the hallway. The bright blue square landed right at the feet of Loki, who looked down and quickly picked it up, using its powers to teleport him out of the tower as people were too distracted running in terror.
Thor tapped his hammer against Tony’s chest, causing him to stop shaking and blink frantically, looking at his surroundings. “Where’s the case?” Y/N heard him ask. Her face dropped as she moved to drone to look all around the room, finding no clue where the Tesseract or Loki himself was.
“Fuck this,” she mumbled, working her computers to try and get into the security tapes, looking for what might’ve happened to either of them. “That wasn’t supposed to happen, was it?"
Tony sat himself up on his elbows looking around to see people screaming and running away from the Hulk, who was screaming about no stairs, and to his other side, officers looking for Loki and the Tesseract. “Shit.”
Y/N quickly packed up her computers and put them back into her bag, running out to meet Tony at the alleyway where they had come in. She found an abandoned car parked beside it and saw Tony already sitting in its head in his hand as he observed the destruction outside.
“What the hell happened, Stark?” She said as she got into the back seat. “We had the Tesseract, where did it go?” Tony sighed, closing his eyes as he responded, trying to keep calm.
“I don’t know what happened, Y/N,” he said tensely. “I know we had it but now we don’t, okay? Something happened, I don’t know what.”
“Well, you better fucking figure it out!” She yelled, her ears going red as she got more angry by him not seeming to care. “Did you not hear what Cap said? No do-overs! We fucked up so what are we gonna do now!”
“I don’t know what we’re gonna do!” He screamed back turning to face her. He sighed, running a hand down his face and closed his eyes. He stayed silent for a bit, using the silence to calm himself down. He knew she was only acting like this because she was scared. And honestly, he was too. “But we’ll figure something out. I promise. Everything will be okay.”
Y/N gulped to hold back her screaming, not wanting to rant to him about every little thing that had already gone wrong, and how she was starting to lose hope. Then Cap jumped down from a balcony, one hand propping up the shield while the other gripped Loki’s staff.
“Cap,” Tony caught his attention. Steve saw them in the dirt-covered car as he walked towards them. “We’ve got a bit of a problem here.” Y/N scoffed, shaking her head as she let her stress get the better of her again.
“A bit of a problem?” She asked sarcastically. “More like we’re in deep shit!” She said getting out of the car and slamming the door shut with surprising force. Tony rolled his eyes. Steve looked between the two, his eyebrows scrunching up in confusion.
“What happened?” he asked, looking at Y/N. She laughed ironically, starting to pace along the alleyway.
“We lost the goddamn Tesseract is what happened!” She said as she aggressively kicked a piece of debris on the ground. “It’s gone and now the plan isn’t gonna work. We don’t have enough Pym particles to go back again. It’s over, we’re done.” She leaned down and sat against the wall, leaning her head back.
“Are there any other options with the Tesseract,” Steve asked, causing Y/N to roll her eyes at his always enthusiastic goody-two-shoes energy.
“No. No there’s not,” she said annoyed as she stood up and walking over to him. “You said it yourself, there are no do-overs. If we use that last Pym particle, we’re never getting home.”
“Well, if we don’t try, no one else is going home either,” he stated. Y/N sighed, squeezing her eyes shut as she leaned against the car. She knew he was right. But what was the use of going back again to get the stone if they couldn’t get back in the present to put it in the gauntlet?
“I got it,” Tony said suddenly, getting out of the car. Y/N’s head shot up as she stood up and followed him as he got out of the car himself. “There’s another way to get the Tesseract and acquire new particles. We’ll take a stroll down memory lane. Military installation Garden State.”
“Why were they both there?” Steve asked, causing Y/N to look between the two as they continued their conversation. Tony shrugged.
“They were both there for a…” he trailed off as he thought. “I have a vaguely exact idea,” he defended himself. Cap gave him a look, the same one he gave Y/N when he caught her doing something she shouldn’t have around the compound or when she sasses one of the other team members a bit too much.
“How vague,” he asked.
“Woah, okay, what’s going on?” Y/ finally butted in. “What are you guys talking about? Where are we going?” She asked eagerly as they started entering in the time date and coordinates.
“Correction, we’re going. You’re travelling back to the present to give this to the others,” Tony said as he handed her Loki’s staff. Her eyes bulged out as she stood up straighter.
“Tony, I can help. I’m not letting you guys go alone, I’m coming with you,” she stated strongly as she put her suit up. Tony shook his head.
"I trust you with this, kid, okay? get back to home base, we’ll be there by the time you get back.” He said as he and Steve put up their own suits. He took her hand and entered in the present-day coordinates to get back home as she looked at him like he was crazy, which she currently felt he was.
“What?! But Tony-!” She started, but before Y/N could argue, she felt the ground sweep from under her feet and she was being sent back to the present day, Loki’s staff still held tightly in her hand.
As she regained her balance, she looked around the room, seeing that everyone had their respective stone’s, including Tony with the Tesseract. But something seemed off. She did another swift headcount of everyone and realized someone had to be missing.
“Where’s Nat?” She asked, looking around at everyone’s confused faces before looking at Clint, whose eyes were red and glassy. She watched as he looked up at her, shaking his head slightly as a fresh tear rolled down his face. Y/N felt her chest tighten as her mouth opened slightly, letting out a shuttering breath. She knew that face, she wore the same expression five years ago.
She felt tears well up into her eyes, not even thinking of losing a mentor, someone she considered family during the process of getting those who were snapped away back. She felt tears starting to form in her own eyes as regret and sadness took over the whole team.
~~~
The team had taken a quick break to take a moment to mourn their friend, to some even their family. It was odd to not have Natasha around, making small sarcastic quips at any person in the room when you’d least expect it. Y/N quickly splashed her face with water, making the tears on her face earlier vanish as she went back into the room where Tony had just completed the infinity gauntlet 2.0 and everyone was arguing over who should snap their fingers.
“What do you think is coursing through my veins right now?” She heard as she exited the ladies bathroom just beside the room. She leaned against the doorframe as she answered.
“Cheez Whiz?” she asked sarcastically as she came up to stand in between the god and Tony. Thor looked down, confusion on his face as he pointed at her and she, in return, gave him a sly smile.
“Lightning,” he emphasized. Y/N sucked in a breath and averted her gaze as he looked expectantly at Tony, who let out a sigh as he pinched his eyebrows together in concentration.
“Lightning won’t help you, pal. It’s gotta be me,” she heard Bruce say from behind her as he walked to the group. She listened intently as he continued. “You saw what those stones did to Thanos; it almost killed him. None of you would survive.”
“Well, how will we know if you will?” Cap said seriously. Y/N looked at Tony, who looked down at her and gave her a knowing glance, that showed he knew it was true. Y/N nodded slightly as Bruce continued.
“We don’t. But the radiation is mostly gamma. It’s… it’s like I was made for this.” The team looked around before Tony stepped out and started explaining the rules of the stones.
“Remember, everyone Thanos snapped away five years ago, we’re just bringing them back to now. Don’t change anything from the past five years,” he said and Bruce nodded, looking at his arm which he prepared to hold the gauntlet in.
The team around him suited up. Y/N felt the cool nanotech of her newly modelled suit slide over her skin, occasionally catching a thin hair. The spiderman-inspired outfit was of the colours white, black, and magenta, with fine reflective webbing details along the side of her arms, legs and torso. She stood behind Tony as he created a protective shield in front of them and Clint on the other side of him.
Metallic barn doors shut around all doors and windows in the room and around the compound. Bruce put on the glove holding the infinity stones and immediately began to scream in pain, doubling down to the ground as he struggled to push his fingers together to snap.
“Take it off! Take it off!” Thor said as he stepped towards Banner, who was still struggling to stay upright. Steve held out his hand to Thor as a sign to stop.
“No, wait! Bruce, are you okay?” Steve asked as he looked at the green giant. Bruce continued to moan but nodded slightly. Y/N stood back further as she heard Banner scream loudly and saw his fingers coming closer together and finally the sound of the metal hitting metal in the snap.
There was a surge of power that almost knocked her over, stumbling to catch her balance. She heard a loud thump as Bruce’s body finally collided with the floor, unconscious. Many people ran towards him to help but Y/N just looked around. She felt her feet carry her to the window as they opened again, seeing birds chirping happily outside.
“D-did it work?” Y/N mumbled as the mask of her suit disappeared from around her face. Everyone turned to look at where she was, seeing multiple new birds coming into sight, planting themselves on a nearby sapling. A phone started to ring, and Clint walked over to his cell vibrating on the glass table, a picture of his beloved wife displayed on the screen. He picked it up and started talking to her.
Tony walked over to Y/N, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder, bringing her attention over to him. He wore a giant smile and even looked like he was in tears. He squeezed her shoulder as she let out a gasp, hand covering her mouth as the biggest smile spread across her soft features. She laughed softly, in disbelief but so happy. Tony matched her actions and pulled her into the biggest hug, and she felt comfortable as she placed her head on his chest.
“We did it, kid,” he mumbled into her messy hair, feeling her locks dampen with his tears. “We finally did it. They’re back.” Y/N laughed again into his suit as she pulled him closer and hugged him tighter, closing her eyes as she felt true relief finally wash over her entire being. But of course, that wouldn’t last for long.
Next thing she knew she was being flung across the compound while a missile hit just outside the window. She felt herself fly through multiple layers of brick and glass, piercing her skin and knocking the breath from her lungs. She coughed heavily as the dust from the rubble entered her system, trying to balance herself enough to stand up and analyze the situation.
“Tony?!” She screamed, looking for the older man that she was just in contact with. “Tony?! Cap?! Thor?!” She screamed any name that came to mind, hoping for someone to hear her, and possibly give her an explanation. She was limping, pain shooting through her ankle whenever she out the slightest pressure on it. It was definitely broken. She felt the metallic taste of blood entering her mouth, and she was scared to say she didn’t know where it came from, her now bleeding nose or the small cuts that littered her cheeks and lips.
“Y/N?” She heard a voice say and sighed with relief. From the dust came Clint, holding something in his arms, the Infinity Gauntlet. “Hey, I got you, you’re okay,” He reassures her as he puts an arm across her back and under her arms, supporting her weight so she can walk. “Tony, I’m with the kid, she seems okay.”
“Is he okay?” she asked quietly when Clint found a safe spot. He looked at her and nodded.
“yeah he’s fine, but almost had a heart attack when he couldn’t find you,” he says, offering her a smile before his face went stoic again. “But he’s here. Thanos. He found us.” Y/N’s eyes went wide, her eyebrows furrowing into a line of confusion. She blinked a couple of times as she processed the new information.
“What? But– but Thanos i-is dead? He’s dead! You said he was dead!” She screams as she feels her heart rate quicken, her breath refusing to meet her lips as if it was stuck inside her throat. Clint reached down and held her hand, rubbing his thumb against the back of her hands as a calming method he has seen Tony use on her before.
“I know, I thought he was gone too,” he whispered, looking back at the dark tunnel before turning back to her. “But this is a different Thanos, he followed us from the past.” Y/N felt her throat close up, dark thoughts filling her mind. Fuck. This was all her fault.
There was a sound that came from down the tunnel, almost like a snarl. The pair went quiet, looking towards the source. Clint slowly took out an arrow from the collection he kept on his back, placing it in his bow and shooting it straight down the line, the end glowing up– revealing about ten or twelve alien-looking dogs. Y/N let out a breath as the two scurried to get up. Clint held up her weight as they ran, eventually settling to pick her up as he ran from the dogs.
As they came to a split in the road, Clint threw her to a different path, signalling for her to run and hide as he continued to run down the other path, provoking the dogs to follow him and leave her. Y/N limped down the path, using the wall to support her as she hopped along. Soon she came across a mop of messy hair frantically looking around the rubble.
“Tony,” she tried to say but found that her voice was scratchy and weak. “Tony, I’m right here.” The said man turned around the stress on his face leaving as he saw the girl he was looking for. He quickly wrapped an arm around as Clint had earlier and walked her away from the scene.
“God, hey kid. You hanging in there?” He said, checking the area before leading her to a small space of coverage under a piece of rubble that looked like it used to be the floor. She nodded in reassurance before grabbing his arm and pulling him back up.
“I need you to take me to our lab, now,” she said urgently and he obliged, not even thinking of asking why. He directed her to a small metal door attached to a broken piece of wall, typing in a code on the damaged keyboard before pushing the heavy doors open.
She rushed over to her part of the lab, the barely working glass screen table popping up and she quickly punched in a few passwords before looking in a locked drawer for one of the small viles kept safely there. Tony looked from her face to the small tube, confusion painting his face as he watched her pop the lid, hesitating before bringing it to her lips and gulping down the small amount of dark red liquid.
Y/N felt the iron tasting liquid slid down her throat as she swallowed it uncomfortably, immediately feeling the effects. Her eyesight went black and her head started to spin. She went to grab the nearest object her hold herself up, the dizziness and broken ankle not being the best combination. Tony rushed to her side, grabbing her other arm.
“Y/N, what the hell was that,” Tony said, concern laced his voice as he watched the girl groan, squeezing her eyes shut and throwing her head back. She gulped before answering in short breaths.
“That answer may vary between poison and what I like to call a spider-serum,” she replied, sarcasm still in use through her pain. Tony looked at her with bewilderment in his eyes, as this was not a project approved by him or not even one they’ve talked about. She gritted her teeth together, continuing to moan out in pain as she collapsed to the floor, Tony calling out her name.
As Y/N got her self together, she placed both hands on the desk in front of her nailed into the floor, using it to pull herself back on her feet. She felt everything in her body changing, she could hear the blood rushing through her veins, she could smell the smoke from across the battlefield outside the reinforced metal door, she could feel the small hairs on Tony’s arms tickling her own as he tried to shake her out of her trance.
“Y/N! Kid come on, snap out of it. What the hell was that?” He said as he continued to shake her. She was going to bring a hand up to slap his own away but instead found them stuck to the table. As she tried tugging again, the steal table breaking off the floor while still sticking to her hands. Y/N and Tony looked in shock.
Y/N then began to laugh, her eyes wide in disbelief. She widened her hands and the desk fell from her palms, crashing against the floor. “Holy shit,” she whispered as she looked at Tony, who was looking from the now broken table to her. “It worked! Oh god, I can’t believe it actually worked!” She screamed as she jumped up and down and headed towards the door.
“No no no, what the hell was that?!” Tony asked. Y/N rolled her eyes, still smiling as she impatiently grabbing his arm and dragged him outside towards the fight. She smiled at him, a great look of success overgoing her as she showed him the potion she had been perfecting for the last couple of years.
“Well, I took a blood sample of Peter’s and checked it to see what kind of stuff the spider had injected into him,” she said as Tony gave her a weird look. “Don’t ask how I got it, I don’t really know either. But as I analyzed it further, I had an idea to take the sample and separate the effects of the injection, and used it to create a serum that would give me powers similar to Peter’s, using the poison of his spider to create powers of my own.”
Tony looked at her mesmerized, then looked at the stash of dark red vials in the drawer. He lifted his eyebrows and nodded, impressed beyond words of the young girl’s discovery. Then he paused and looked back at her. “Wait, so you technically drank spiderboy’s blood?” He asked suspiciously. Y/N opened her mouth to respond but didn’t quite know how.
“I-” she paused, closing her eyes and shaking her head. “Okay, no, we don’t have time for this conversation right now. There’s a giant purple grape out that waiting to be slain.” Tony nodded and soon the two headed out the door without any further questions, saluting each other before Y/N darted off at an irregularly fast tempo.
She felt the wind blow rapidly against her hair as she ran through the bad guys, dodging hits with swiftness. Of course, she wasn’t fast like Pietro but definitely was faster than she usually was, which proved to be a great advantage while on the battlefield. Y/N saw Tony, Thor and Steve fighting against Thanos in the background as she thwiped out a web and flew into the air, grabbing one of the Chiari and slamming it into another group coming towards her.
She continued to fight when suddenly she felt a tingly sense that made her head shoot towards Steve, watching as he stood up by himself, his shield broken in his hand, as he prepared to single-handedly fight the titan. Y/N ran towards him when she heard a voice in her comm, that definitely wasn’t from anyone on their battlefield.
“On your left…”
She seemed to distantly recognize the voice but couldn’t quite place it. That is until a portal appeared beside Steve, made of orange sparks that she had remembered. There, the king of Wakanda, T'Challa, his younger sister, Shuri she thought her name was, and another girl who was dressed in a warriors uniform and a shaved head, holding a golden spear stood beside the king.
After that, portal after portal began to form around the atmosphere, with more battleships, superheroes and warriors of all kinds of countries and galaxies appearing through them and getting into their battle positions. Y/N smiled proudly before running up to the giant team and taking her place next to the Wakandian princess, lunging down into the iconic spidey stance and getting ready to avenge the rest of the universe. She looked at Steve as he watched everyone take their places among him.
“Avengers…” he starts as he holds out his hand and Mjolner flies into his grip. “Assemble!”
Battle cries and the sound of machines whirring and flying filled the atmosphere as they ran towards the alien army opposite of them. Y/N flicked out her wrist and grabbed onto one of the giants floating motherships and swung low to the ground, knocking out multiple enemies at once. Once she landed on the ground she continued to fist fight them off of her one by one, like Natasha had taught her for so many years.
But as good as she was doing at the moment, it wasn’t hard for her to get overpowered when a bunch jumped on her back at once, knocking her down to the floor, struggling to keep them from ripping out her skin. She tried to push them off, and successfully webbed some to the ground to keep them off of her, but it wasn’t enough to handle them all.
“Hey, watch out!” A boyish voice sounded through her comms as all the aliens were kicked right off of her, giving her a chance to stand up and fight off the rest, her rescuer standing behind her, back to back, as they both slung down the dogs and threw them across the battlefield. Y/N stabbed some with her pincer things Tony put on her back.
Once they were gone, Y/N grabbed the boy behind her and pulled him into a quieter place as she unmasked herself, looking expectantly at the boy. “Peter?” She said, her voice breaking as she looked at the Iron Spider suit, which disappeared from his face, revealing his unruly curls and a just as shocked look on his face.
“Y/N?” He whispered, disbelief in his eyes as she saw a single tear escape his brown orbs and gently slide down his cheek. He looked the same, but at the same time looked more mature, and she was relieved that he had seemed to grow while he was gone, or else the near future situation would be a bit awkward. “W-what are you doing here?” Y/N giggled a bit, feeling her own hot tears sliding down her dirt and blood covered cheek as her delicate hand went up to grab his own, wiping his tears.
“I came to save you, dummy,” she joked. Peter smiled at her, placing his hands on her waist. Although it wasn’t as long for Peter in the soul stone as it was for Y/N while on Earth since he was in a coma-like state pretty much the whole time, he had missed her honey-coated voice and sickly sweet smile. He had waited too long for this.
They watched each other for a little longer, analyzing the small details that had changed around their faces since the years passed before Peter leaned down and attached their lips together for a very long-awaited kiss. Y/N squeezed her eyes shut as her hands trailed back to rest on the back of his neck, playing with the small hairs at the nape of his neck as she felt the cold metal of his suit brush against her fingertips.
As they parted, he leaned down and pressed his forehead to hers, her sweat mixing with his as they kept their eyes closed and smiled at the feeling. Even though they were in the middle of a war, Y/N has never felt more at peace than that moment while she was in his arms.
Suddenly she felt the fine hairs on the back of her arm and the back of her neck stand up, and without thinking she extended her arms and traps the alien running towards them in one of her webs, throwing it up before pulling it back down to the ground, crushing it.
Apparently, Peter felt it too because when she looked back to him he was already looking back at the now-dead dog. His head turned back towards her, his mouth hanging open a bit as he let out a breath, a beautiful smile painting his lips as he grabbed her face, looking her in the eye.
‘God, I love you so much,“ he mumbles as he brings her mouth up to his again, this kiss a bit more passionate than the last. Y/N laughed into the kiss as she brought her arms around his neck and played with his hair. She pulled him back a bit, their noses still brushing against one another as she pecked him on the lips.
"I love you too,” she whispered, looking into his eyes with such adoration he almost exploded right there with the adrenaline he was feeling just having her this close to him. He smiled wider as he pecked her on the lips; once, twice, and a third time brought her into a proper kiss.
“Y'know as heartwarming as this moment is, you lovebirds realize we’re still fighting a war,” someone said from behind them. They quickly pulled away, stepping back from one another to face Tony Stark, a smirk on his lips as he examined the blush on the young adult’s faces, bashfully looking away from one another.
“Oh shut it, Tony. I deserve this at least,” she shook her head as she looked at the perfect boy beside her, someone she had known pretty much her whole life and had been in love with for just as long. Peter smiled at Tony and walked over to greet him, excited to see his mentor again after so long.
“Mr. Stark! Holy cow you will not believe what has happened to me,” Peter began to ramble as he walked up to him and started to do his usual over-exaggerated hand gestures. “Do you remember when we were in space? Right? And I got all dusty? Well I must have passed out and Dr. Strange said we went to the Soul Stone and we were in like a coma for like five years, and when I woke up, Dr. Strange was there too and he was like 'it’s been five years we have to go’, and then he started doing that yellow sparkly thingy, uh, that he does and… what are you doing? …oh.” Peter stopped when Tony wrapped his arms around him and pulled him into a tight embrace.
Tony felt such a great sense of relief as he hugged Peter, never realizing that the kid was like his first son until it was too late and having to wait so many years to hear his voice again. He placed a kiss on his cheek, in a fatherly way, and opened his eyes, smiling at Y/N who looked so happy.
“This is nice,” Peter said before they pulled away, Peter turned back at Y/N and smiled at her, his grin reaching his sparkling eyes. Tony patted his shoulder.
“I think it’s time we get back into battle,” he stated, his mask going back over his face as he got his repulsors ready. “You two don’t take too long, and NO funny business.” The pair nodded as he flew back into the air, going to help Banner or the Hulk. Peter turned back to Y/N.
“Wow, this is so awesome,” he said as he walked back to her, holding her arms as he admired her suit, which looked similar to his. “You’re like, my spider-girl sidekick.” Y/N laughed and pushed his chest playfully.
“I’m nobody’s sidekick, Parker,” she said. “But I can be your… partner?” Peter smiled and blushed. He bit his lip as he looked her over again, his grin contagious.
“In what way?” He asked, trying to sound sly but sounding more scared of the answer. Y/N laughed and walked over to him, wrapping her arms around his waist.
“In whatever way you want me to be,” she said, kissing his cheek before putting her mask back on and saluting him before swinging of back into battle. Peter stood there with a red blush crawling up his neck and feeling breathless, his smile growing wider if that was even possible.
“Awesome,” he muttered before his mask also went over his face and he went to go help as well.
Y/N was swinging over the battle, occasionally knocking out an airborne enemy in her way if she had to. She scanned through the people fighting, looking for anyone who needed help. But then her web was seemed to be disintegrated as she fell hard onto the floor, another lazer like beam hit right beside her just barely grazing her shoulder. She saw the witch people? (that’s what Tony called them at least) started to make barriers which she quickly ran under. She looked around for Tony and Peter, but couldn’t see them. Until she heard the latter’s voice through her comm.
“Help! Somebody help!” He said, sounding panicked and she heard his grunts as he tried to fight off the aliens. Without thinking of the possible dangers she ran out to help him, her spider-senses helping her locate him. She saw him under a bunch of the aliens and shot a web up.
“Peter, duck!” She said as she rammed through the enemies, knocking them over like bowling pins. She grabbed Peter around the waist and tugged him into her as she shot a web and took them out, grabbing onto Mjloner which had flown right above.
“Aw, thanks, Y/N,” Peter said as he put his head into her neck, which she couldn’t help but blush at. She thought it was cute how their roles were sort of reversed and he was just so baby.
Y/N continued to ride onto the hammer until she saw that it was heading straight towards one of the flying motherships. Her eyes went wide as she looked for a way to get off. She saw Valkerye, one of Thor’s friends, and called out for her as a warning before throwing Peter up so he could get the gauntlet back to Scott.
Y/N then stood on the small handle of the hammer before using her web to fling herself forward, jumping up to get on top of the ship as the hammer continued to destroy it from the inside. As she jumped off and landed surprisingly gracefully on the ground, she looked up to realize that the ships were no longer firing at them, but at something in the atmosphere above.
Y/N squinted before watching a figure move at lightning speed straight through one of the ships firing at them, exploding the whole thing. Y/N smiled, knowing who it was as she ran down to help Peter up, who had just almost been hit by one of the beams.
“Hey, you alright?” She asked softly as she grabbed his arm and helped him get up, him going to get the gauntlet which had escaped his grip after falling. He nodded, his mask going back as hers did.
“Yeah, yeah, all good,” he reassured as he held onto her shoulder for support. “That was so badass, by the way. When I was like, stuck, you know, under those aliens. And then you came and was like wham! and like kicked them off and then you just sorta like picked me up and then you just like threw me onto that flying horse, which is crazy. But you like saved me and that was so cool. Like really cool. Thanks.” Peter rambled as he looked at her in awe, which she gave a sweet smile in return.
Before he could comment any more someone landed right in front of them. Captain Marvel smiled and nodded at Y/N, as she returned the gesture, and looked at Peter, who was still holding tightly onto the infinity stones. Peter looked at her with wide eyes and in awe.
“Hi I-I’m Peter.. Parker,” he said shyly. Captain Marvel smiled at him, looking between the two teenagers.
“I know,” she said as she gave Y/N a knowing glance. “Hey, Peter Parker. You got something for me?” Peter looked at the gauntlet before looking out at the army that was racing towards them, feeling scared at the moment.
“I don’t know how you’re gonna get through that,” he said as he delicately handed the glove to Carol as the other female Avengers and superheroes gathered together around her. Y/N felt immediately at home and looked over at Peter reassuringly as Wanda landed by her side.
“Don’t worry,” Y/N said with a smile as her mask got on and Okoye, T’Challa’s head of king’s guard, finished her sentence for her.
“She’s got help,” she said, and the group of them began to run like hell towards the growing army, all doing their own thing to slam through and take down the enemy. Y/N webbed them down as they tried to attack her sisters and knocked them over as she swung by. She saw one of the bigger monsters making its way towards her, and effortlessly picked it up and threw it into the rest of the aliens making their way towards her at a fast rate.
As she continued to fight off the enemy, she felt a strong surge of energy pass through her, making her stumble slightly. As she regained her balance, she watched as the aliens that were once running straight for her turned into dust, disappearing into the wind. She squinted her eyebrows, looking around for who had snapped before she felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand up, warning her that something was wrong.
She followed her senses to find Tony sitting against a piece of debris, extremely pale and barely moving, his arm and part of his face burnt off. She felt her breathing stop as she stumbled towards him, muttering his name as she collapsed in front of him in front of all the other Avengers.
“T-Tony? Tony! No!” She said as fell in front of him, going to grab his hand with both of hers. She hadn’t felt this type of heartbreak since 2018 when she had lost Peter, her mom, and the rest of her friends. But this time she was losing her father.
“Hey, kid,” he said so quietly she wouldn’t have heard him, but she was practically hugging him by now, clinging onto him as a silent way of asking not to leave her. As she heard his voice, an ugly sob ripped through her as she buried her head in his chest as a form of comfort.
“Tony, please not you too,” she asked quietly, squeezing his hand so tight that the metal surrounding it had started to cut into her palms, but she could care less. “Not you too, please. We need you, Tony. I need you, and Morgan, please.” She couldn’t even finish before breaking down.
“Mr. Stark? Can you hear me? It’s Peter.” Peter asked from behind her, shocked to see Y/N holding onto him and crying into him. Tony weakly looked up and brought his attention to the original web-slinging spider. “We won, Mr. Stark. You did it. You did it, sir.”
At the mention of his name, Y/N finally looked up towards Peter, and he felt his heart shatter looking at her already bloodshot red eyes and the tear tracks that were a bright contrast against the rest of her face, which was covered in dust and blood. He walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her, gently pulling her off and into his own arms.
“No, No! Let go, please! I need to help him. Please. No.” Her voice got quieter as Peter held her closely, her back pressed against his chest as they both watched him. Tony looked between the pair, and although it hurt him to see the tears in their eyes, he was happy that they would be able to work through it together. He looked up at Peter and nodded his chin towards Y/N.
“Take… take care of… of her,” he whispered, causing a sob to come over Peter as well as he nodded vigorously, holding her tighter against him if that was even possible at this point.
“Of course, yes always,” he said as he felt salty tears run down at a rapid pace. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Tony.” Tony tried to give him a smile, tried to give him a sign that everything would be okay, but found that he couldn’t.
Then Tony looked at Y/N. He remembered the last time she was like this, and it hurt him that he had to cause her the same pain. But he cared for her and knew that this was what had to happen to keep both of his daughters safe. “I love you.”
Y/N’s head fell as she heard the three simple words come from his mouth, leaning into Peter as she tries to control herself, trying to look strong in front of him, knowing who worried he must be already. “I love you, too, dad.” She whispered and nodded, reaching out to squeeze his hand one more time before Pepper came to his side. Peter carefully pulled Y/N back, her collapsing into his lap and crying into his shoulder as he rubbed her back tried to keep in his own tears to be strong for her but ended up letting go and crying into her soft hair.
“Friday?” Pepper asked, her hand on Tony’s chest as Tony’s hand was placed gently on top of hers.
“Life functions critical,” the AI responded. Y/N felt like she was gonna be sick. She couldn’t think she could breathe, how do you even breathe again? Because she couldn’t quite remember at the moment. She listened to Peter’s heartbeat and used his rising and falling chest as a model.
“Tony? Look at me,” Pepper managed a smile at Tony as he groaned while turning to look towards her. “You’re gonna be okay, you can rest now,” she said as she put a hand on his cheek, gently caressing it before placing a soft kiss to it. And after that, the light on his chest went dim, and it took everything in Y/N not to scream like the day she found out Peter wasn’t coming home for dinner that night.
She felt Peter shaking around her, choking on sobs. She knew he would try and act as a support base for her, and he always liked to put others before himself. But she just held onto him, her hands going up to his messy hair and carting her fingers through the strands as a silent way to tell him that she was there for him too.
The Avengers and other heroes and warriors who had teamed up together to fight kneeled down, showing their respect to another beautiful life taken. The chaos in the warzone had gone quiet, a moment of silence taken in honour of Tony Stark.
And just like that, he was gone, just another figure of history in the textbooks. But to others he was a friend, he was a teammate, he was an idol, he was family. And God knows that he wouldn’t be forgotten for what he was, a hero.
~~~
The funeral occurred a couple of weeks later, only close friends and family were invited at the small gathering at the lake house where he lived with his family. It was odd, walking into the house and feeling so much dread in a place she considered a getaway just days before, a place that brought her such a feeling of happiness and relief.
She sat quietly in a soft chair in the corner, trying to process everything that was happening and everything that would come with it afterwards. She had just finished watching Tony’s video to his family, which Pepper insisted included her, and felt heartbroken at the thought that it would truly be the last time she saw him, ever again.
“Hey,” his soft voice said as Peter crouched down next to her, a hand on her knee as he gently squeezed. His eyes were red and puffy, just as hers were, and he wore a black and white suit that looked nice on him, though it seemed an inappropriate time to comment on it. “They’re starting the service soon, um, by the lake. I think we should go.” Y/N nodded, standing up from her chair and taking his hand in her own, finding comfort in his warm and soft grip.
The two walked out to the deck, one that she had so many memories on with the rest of the Stark family. Peter brought her to stand beside him and his aunt May, who smiled at Y/N and squeezed her hand. Y/N smiled back, but it came out as more of a grimace. They stood just behind Happy, Pepper and Morgan, as Pepper leaned down and set the wreath onto the lake, in the middle it had Tony’s original arc reactor from 2008, with words engraved into it.
‘Proof Tony Stark has a heart’
She found humour in the words but also wondered why anyone had ever thought otherwise. Sure he was a bit egotistical and petty sometimes, and often took to bragging when it came to being one of the smartest people on earth. But if you had known him like I had, she thought to herself, you’d know that he was one of the most caring people ever.
She watched as it floated away down through the calm river, eventually turning into a speck in the distant, covered by trees and the glistening light reflected off the water. Y/N gulped harshly as she tried to keep her tears in, not trying to break the strong personality she had set in stone for the past five years, but nonetheless couldn’t help a few of them slip from her eyes.
When the funeral had ended Y/N went to greet the others that had attended, wearing her best fake smile as people commented on how sorry they were for her loss and she did the same for them. She had gotten many embraces from people she did and didn’t know, and shared small laughs and memories with them.
After Y/N got tired of talking to everyone she tapped Peter, who had stayed by her side through the whole day, and told him she was going to get a drink of water. Peter had insisted on coming and held her hand as they walked away from the crowd and to the cute lakeside cottage, Y/N had considered home for so many years. On the small bench beside the door sat Happy with little Morgan in his lap, who sprung off and ran towards the girl with a bright smile on her face.
“Y/N! Y/N!” Morgan chanted happily as she ran closer, arms stretched out. Y/N smiled genuinely at the young girl and crouched down, picked her up as she ran into her chest and resting her on her hip. She brushed her nose against her soft cheek and placed a kiss upon it.
“Hi, baby,” Y/N said as she bounced Morgan. Peter looked at Morgan with a grin as well, since it was honestly astounding how similar she was to her father. Morgan giggled and played with Y/N’s hair as they had a small conversation and Peter could only watch on in awe. Then Y/N turned Morgan to face Peter. “You remember who this is, don’t you? It’s uncle Peter!” Y/N said, looking at Morgan and then smiling up at Peter, who felt like he was about to cry again just hearing those words.
“Spidey! Spidey!” Morgan screeched happily as she leaned over and made grabbing hands towards Peter, asking him to pick her up. Peter smiled widely before taking her from Y/N’s grip and holding her on his own hip now.
“Hey there, nice to finally meet you,” he said as he rocked slightly and Morgan placed her head on his shoulder, wrapping her small arms around his neck. Peter felt like he might explode from cuteness overload.
“Yeah. Daddy and Y/N says that-that you is the bestest,” she says as she played with the collar of Peter’s shirt. “You’re my favourite superhero! But after daddy.” She says as she smiled up at him. Peter raises his eyebrows and nods, letting out a laugh as he continued to talk with her. Soon the girl was falling asleep on Peter’s shoulder and the two walked inside to put her down for a nap.
Peter gently placed her down on her bed as he put a few stuffed animals by her side and covered her with the pink, fluffy blanket at the end of the bed. He kissed her forehead as Y/N went to place another on her cheek.
“Love you 3000,” she mumbled in her half-asleep state, and Y/N smiled, feeling tears brimming in her eyes as she replied.
“Love you infinity,” she says as she kissed her head. Morgan smiled in her sleepy state as the two stood up and exited the room, closing the door as quietly as they could to not stir her. Peter pulled Y/N into a hug, rocking them from side to side as he felt her tears start to make his shirt wet, but he didn’t seem to care. He kissed her temple and gently grabbed her chin, guiding her to look up at him as he smiled down at her.
“You know, I love you infinity,” he mumbled as he leaned down to brush against her lips. She laughed, his presence making her feel so much better since he really was her saviour. She shook her head, scoffing.
“You’re such a dork, Parker,” she said as she looked up at him, smiling for what felt like the first time in forever. She didn’t know how he had that effect on her, but then again she wasn’t complaining. God knows she needs a bit of relief. “I love you infinity too,” she replied after leaving him hanging for a while, and she stood up on her toes to press her lips to his, the kiss soft and short but still full of emotion.
As they broke apart, he pressed another kiss on her forehead and pulled her into his embrace. “You know what would make you feel better?” He said into her ear, which she replied with a ‘hm?’, asking for him to continue. “If we went home and binge-watched that Shane Dawson conspiracy theory video you told me about the other day.” Y/N scrunched up her eyebrows and looked up at him, a soft laugh passing her lips.
“Right now? Are you serious?” she said, shaking her head as she jokingly pushed his chest. He also chuckled a bit.
“What?” He asked, taking her hand and backing down the hallway. “C’mon, Y/N, you know how long I’ve waited for this video! You can’t just tease me with it!” Y/N raised her eyebrow as she watched Peter bounce a bit, begging her with his adorable brown puppy eyes to come with him.
“Well, you know what? There’s actually two, and they’re an hour and a half each” she whispered, causing Peter to groan and throw his head back. As he looked back up he was smirking, his tongue swiping over his teeth as he looked at her.
“You’re gonna be the death of me,” he whispered as he tugged on her hand and pulled her away, Y/N following a giggling mess as he brought her to Aunt May’s car and drove them back home, both excitedly discussing different videos and movies and other events that Peter had missed while he was gone.
Even though it meant sacrificing a lot, and even though she was still devastated about Tony and Nat’s death, Y/N felt as if everything would be okay as she lied on Peter’s chest, his strong arms wrapped securely around her as they watched the movie long conspiracy videos together. They exchanged small kisses and soft words, and even feeding popcorn to each other cause they were that grossly sweet kind of couple. And Y/N had finally found her hope.

Covert Shirt Store hi there everyone welcome to episode 405 of the micro main show the place where we do daily interviews with successful online entrepreneurs this is your host Mike Thomas and today on the show I have cindy battye on and we're going to be talking about how you can create your own viral profitable t-shirt empire your own store on your under blog and not have to worry about designing t-shirts or paying any money on facebook ads and be able to take advantage of this whole Facebook and t-shirt craze I mean everywhere you look you seem to find people selling t-shirts and making money with it and of course there are different aspects of it like getting the t-shirt designed and getting the right kind of ads the right kind of ad copy it can all be really confusing and this takes away a lot of it what we're gonna be talking about today is Cindy's covert t-shirt store that's going to be launching tomorrow we're not gonna do a demo of it but I'm am gonna have a demo underneath the interview it is a little bit long it's an 18 minute demo but if this excites you then you might want to actually pay attention to that as well because this is gonna be a really cool product Cindy and her partner's always put out excellent work so let's get into it here's Cindy we are here today with cindy battye Cindy welcome back to the show hello oh my gosh it's so cool to be here thanks for having me you're very welcome we've had you on a bunch of times before so I'm not gonna make you tell us your whole story just give us a little bit of an idea for our audience you missed that who you are what you do and what got you into this whole topic today about t-shirts and themes and etc yep so for those of you guys who don't know me yet I'm I've worked together with a couple of guys and we met in internet marketing forum of all places I started I created my first website while I was going through chemotherapy for breast cancer and so it was quite I yeah I really didn't know what I was doing at all but I ended up meeting some amazing people along the way and those two people with soren jordansen and John Merrick and we met in an online forum and started creating products together and this was quite a few years ago now and the last two years we've been creating WordPress themes and plugins and it's just been going amazing people love our stuff so we just you know when when people really enjoy and make use of what it is you're making it just inspires you to just go and and make more and and just do the best that you can and so we just really really love doing that and we saw in John and I were sitting around probably about six months ago and we're just kicking around ideas for new products and we saw a massive rush on this teespring thing teespring is so hot and it's not just a spring this a lot of other other sites like screen comm there's there's just a whole bunch of them that are now allowing you just basically anyone to come up and start printing t-shirts and um and t-shirts is just it's just a really exciting little business because everyone buys t-shirts I mean it's it's pretty much something that everyone needs it's like t-shirts and underwear basically like everyone everyone buys them and now because they are getting so just so mass-produced and it's quite easy to just get stuff printed out there you can get them really really cheap and people will go and just buy them whether they're funny ones or they're making a statement about something or whatever I'm actually wearing one of them now and it wasn't intentional I just realized that I was wearing this this one we're really not intentional in the it actually honestly was when we were just talking before I am yeah I realize I'm actually wearing one of them so yeah but people buy t-shirts on line all the time and um so we decided that you know we are great at building things john is amazing at building things and so um there wasn't anything out there for t-shirt sellers and and so many people are selling t-shirts but they're doing it all wrong a lot and they're making a lot of money but man they're leaving so much on the table and we really wanted to address that and create something and put the power into the people's hands who are selling these t-shirts yeah on your sales page it says transform your blog's into your own profitable viral t-shirt empire without having to design a single t-shirt or t-shirt or spending a dime on oh happy short t-shirts are spending a dime on ads tell us a little bit about this because there's lots of problems there with Pete I know people getting into doing this t-shirt thing there's so many different skills that you have to learn and it gets a bit overwhelming for for a lot of us it does and the spend actually can add up I know that a lot of people it's very easy to get sold on the idea of t-shirts because it is so exciting you get to be creative and you come up with ideas and you're wacom on a t-shirt and throw it up on the site and people will tell you you know that everyone's just gonna come and buy them and they'll flock and they'll share them and and that doesn't always work a lot of the training materials out there will tell you you know do your research come up with an idea and then send a whole lot of Facebook ads to it which is fantastic but the first thing is you don't know if it's actually gonna sell I mean you unless until you get eyes on the actual t-shirts and the proper audience and you know you need scenario it when it's you don't know self another issue is that you you actually have to pay for it and so um like a lot of the training out there will tell you go and buy really targeted Facebook ads and that's great training but it does cost money so for people who are starting out or if you haven't done a lot of t-shirt marketing then finding that extra money and out laying it it's pretty risky because you just don't know there's just too many unknowns and we really wanted to help that group of people as well as you know the established t-shirt marketers who know exactly what they're doing and power them and I'll talk a little bit more about that there but the people just starting we're just curious about this massive online rush of t-shirt sellers we really wanted to just put the control into their hands and take away - the need to reliant on traffic only from Facebook Ads because it's it's can blow out very expensive I know that know if you saw there was a big fuss probably it was like maybe three or four weeks ago a whole bunch of people lost their Facebook accounts there was a lot there were quite a few what what the training was was that you use this software tool that goes through does searches for certain groups and then it will scrape all of their IDs from that from that group so the software and it's a clever idea but it's it's not actually in line with Facebook's rules and Facebook has started to cut right back on that and they banned a ton of people they went on a whole big spree shut down a heap of people's accounts who didn't know anything and so that they're now that that software is obsolete I mean you don't even want to touch anything that that scrapes IDs if you want to keep Facebook account okay so so now that that's obsolete the Facebook ads you can't target them in the same way so the prices are going to blow out a little bit or it's gonna be more expensive because you have to go back to advertised into a bit more of a broader audience so it's the cost thing again and we really wanted to try and face face the cost thing and make this t-shirt thing a lot more accessible to more people I mean people go out there and they they want to start sending traffic to their their t-shirt that they've created looks like they go out they create a t-shirt that is a good t-shirt let's say it's an excellent t-shirt and they've nailed it the first time which is probably not very likely and and then they've got it all set up and then they want to send traffic to it once if you have your Facebook account banned and you're done I mean you can't yeah where are you gonna get all that targeted traffic if you are doing it that way the campaign's that you have on these places like teespring it's their only what 21 days or something it's a limited time yeah that they are that they're listed there with that scarcity aspect so it's not enough time for them to get indexed in yeah well you're not gonna start getting search engine traffic from them so if yeah if you if you screw up your Facebook account you're done well it's not it I mean I know for me because we traveled quite a bit we don't live in the same country as a lot of our family like my mom and my dad like my like in-laws and all that they're in different countries and so Facebook is really how we keep in touch so it's not even just losing it and not being able to do business it's just that would be devastating for me to not be able to just lose everything on Facebook so yeah and you were talking about the 21 day thing that's another issue that teespring people face because the campaigns are very limited 21 days is the maximum which can be good I mean in a way it can kind of force sales and encourage people to go in and buy faster and share it and all that sort of stuff but it really does force you to rely on Facebook advertising or some kind of paid advertising because you need to drive traffic and you need to drive it fast or people are not going to see your t-shirts and you'll end up with nothing so there are a ton of problems in and I think probably the biggest problem of all of that is by relying solely on just driving Facebook traffic to your teespring campaign or screen whatever campaign it is selling t-shirts with you're not building your own assets and and I know I like you and I what I I don't know how you think but I know for myself if I'm not building something myself and I'm just you know constantly sending pain traffic I'm paying traffic to go to something and not actually benefiting from it except for a few dollars I mean people are you can make hundreds of thousands of dollars but in the end it's still that's all you're getting you have to keep doing your over and over again to keep getting that money back so first and foremost when you're building any kind of business you need to think am i building this for myself or am i building this for someone else so you're basically getting Mark Zuckerberg for the privilege of sending a whole bunch of traffic when you should be I would have benefit from yourself so I think that starting her up even if you're making like let's say you making $50,000 or $100,000 a year from from t-shirt marketing that would be fantastic you do that for a couple years then I've been around a while doing this and I know that one business model might be working for a couple years and then something changes the reason one day facebook says no more t-shirts guys this is something that we don't want to be involved in and you've been doing great maybe you've got some money in the bank for a little while but then a couple years later that money's gonna gonna go down the drain you're gonna get used to that that lifestyle that the money that you're bringing in provides you don't have anything after that you have to you got to really know that you're able to try to find something else and when you're when you're building a new business model you have to invest back in it so you have to take that money invest back in wood and you're in your new idea whatever it is so it's that money is great for the time being but it eventually you need to be thinking about something that okay what am i building am i building an email list am i building an asset and I think that's a perfect transition to really get to talking about what you have to offer with your covert shirt store I'm gonna have a demo underneath this interview for anyone that wants to check it out it's a little bit long so I would I would probably wait and the interviews done and then the coffee and take a look at it but I think you're gonna understand what we're talking about here in the interview and the the difference between building an asset and building someone else's email list so what are you still even though we've got that demo tell us a little bit about what covert shirt store is uh it's it's just so it's it's fantastic it's basically a wordpress theme so if if you guys aren't familiar with WordPress it's a blogging platform and you can install it for free the software WordPress is free and then the theme goes on top of the WordPress it like WordPress is the foundation the theme goes on top and turns your turns it into a blog that basically you can serve you can display all sorts of shirts and it's just it's a really pretty it's a bit difficult to see what the demo underneath but um basically it allows you to import t-shirts from you can import them from Amazon from screen comm or if you're running teespring campaigns you can run them and host them on your own blog so yeah and it's super easy like it takes like we've spent a lot of time John like I mentioned before he's really really clever he's gone through and broken it down to step by step wizard setup so when she install the theme and installing the theme is really easy you just upload the file and then hit an activate button and I'm we do all of the training to show you how to do that so it's it's really really straightforward and then once you've activated the theme it walks you through a step-by-step thing so it will ask you to put in your license code and then it will ask you do you want to use your own logo or do you want to use the default logo or do you want to just have text what color do when your header to be what color do you want your and it's just all color Pickers what and it takes you through the SEO issues of it so you don't have to stress about digging through all of the other settings we've made it super easy so anyone can go and get started and there's the issue also that we mentioned before of teespring campaigns only being 21 days so you can you if I understand correctly during that time you can add if you have teespring campaigns you can include them on your site during the time that they are active absolutely yeah you can just import them if you watch the video later you'll see that you can actually just go and put in the link when you go and create a teespring campaign you just get like a promotional link and you can put that link in there and it will add it as a post on your blog and you can choose if you want to feature it you can add it to certain categories if you want and oh there's something I forgot something that's really really exciting you can do categories and stuff and that's that's like a really cool way to do it but our blog actually self optimizes as well so so John's put code in there so that it actually tracks how many people how many times people view it and then out of those people how many people click on certain shirts and then it will serve those higher so if they give up leave it yeah if they get more clicks then you can display them and it's optional I mean if you don't want to do that I think you're probably kind of crazy but you can uncheck the box if you don't want to do that but if you want to have it so that the most popular shirts show up it will just show up at the top and it's it's yeah a really really clever way to do things because then you're making so you can fill it up with Amazon t-shirts or you if you've got a screamed I'm not sure if you've seen scream calm but it's it's really really neat scream column that's and that's where you can actually you can sell other people's t-shirts is you yeah you can do both you can create your own there and the the reason that all I explained is because it's not limited to the 21 days and also they allow you to sell one at a time so you don't have to go and sell 20 before they finish the campaign if someone wants to come and buy one t-shirt they can and they just print on demand so it's it's really it's really good to kind of do a bit of a mix so have your teespring campaigns the ones that are going really good and you know boot them out but have something back there so you know you're really good ones make them on like more of a long-term selling thing and then you can just sell heaps more later what's your advice for setting up a store because I know that with other other Amazon sites and affiliate sites online but seems to do better are ones that are themed in in a certain way is there anything that you would suggest there what really depends on where you're planning on you know taking your business so what your what your niche is if your niche is you know health and fitness then you do t-shirts based around that I mean that's a beauty of t-shirts marketing because basically it fits for any niche you can do you know dog lovers or my daughter is right into supernatural like the TV show with Misha Collins young and all of those guys as far as having a moment and and Sherlock and all those things so she's built a bunch of t-shirts based around Bennett cumberbatch and all of those fandom things so whatever really excites you and whatever you have the traffic for you can just build a store around that theme yeah one thing that I liked about the theme is first off you are we talked about earlier about creating that asset you are creating something that is an actual website that in the future if you are if you are making money from it and you're getting t-shirt sales and you have proof of revenue you can sell it to someone you could just create it without proof of revenue it might be a little harder to sell but you could create it and sell that as well and flip it one of the things that was cool I think there's an email option email opt-in parity this is something that I was kind of a little bit surprised that John and Sarah wanted to put in because it has a lightbox exit pop-up functions so you can choose in the set up and it takes you through the whole wizard setup you can choose if you have a Facebook page and you want to recommend people go and sign up at your Facebook page or a or you want them to sign up to your opt-in list or whatever you can just add your details in there and then when a customer exits a little light box will come up and say do you want to friend us on facebook follow us there or you know do you want to follow us on Twitter or when a when a ello I don't know how you pronounce that but it's like a shopping kind of store thing um so yeah or opt-in so it really does encourage people to be active on your site share your site and everything that they do on this on your site is is building links back to your site so we have we have the function there as well so that you can put comments and when you put a comment on the blog it posts it it can post it on Facebook as well if that's what you want and so you're building it is just automatically sharing on Facebook so yeah no traffic backlinks and traffic boys Weiss yeah around there and before we talk about traffic one last thing about that that often thing is let's say you're doing it and you find out there's I know one of the niches that's really popular on for for t-shirts it's like selling t-shirts to nurses because the nurses were a lot of t-shirts or whatever people that were made by a plumber it's gonna always gonna want it just like t-shirt to wear while he's working yeah and you can make sure it's like that let's say you you go after that niche and you've got a website that's all about plumbing plumber t-shirts and then you've got that box on there so that people are coming that are interested and once they opt in next time you come up with an idea for a new t-shirt you could just email that out to that email is to say hey I really I know that you love you were interested in the plumbing t-shirts last time check out this shirt it's it's an awesome one and you're gonna get traffic coming in for free right immediately it's gonna let you test out and see what shirts are getting the most attention from people the tasting thing that's a really good point that you made because if you've got a source of traffic and you start you know you want to test it before you go and spend a whole bunch of money on a teespring campaign and Facebook Ads you can test it with your own resources you can ask them what they want which is a you can example yes survey them say which is your shirt would you rather I'm gonna put together a t-shirt guys which which one is is interesting for you you want me to make one yeah I know a lot of people buy shirts based on you know their initial appeal so you know if you can appeal to them faster what a plan what come up plumbers t-shirts so they like maybe they don't like white because it gets dirty easy and they don't want to wear white t-shirts they want to wear a darker color because it's not going to show up that that dirt and grease from getting down in there in the yeah under your sink isn't going to show up as quickly just little things like that I mean that's a basic example it's it's more true than I think that we understand there no traffic methods that's a huge thing you've come up with this store you've got it running it looks nice you've got all your social sharing things on there where is the traffic we have a few different things built-in can I talk about the plug-in yet sure good yeah all right because we were gonna mention that OTO and the the when once you bought the theme and with the theme you can import shirt so you can go you know a - it to your store you can pick a name and then it will bring up a whole heap you just check which ones you want to add click a button and it will add them as blog posts so it's really easy with the theme but with the upsell we've gone and taken that one step further and we've we've made it so that you can basically automate the process and you can build you can create you can link it to a screamed store and create t-shirts automatically it will scrape quotes and it will scrape from different sources and it will put the ones t-shirts for you and and then just publish it and we were talking a few shirts for you it will make t-shirts for you yeah so because I thought it was like when you when you first start mentioning I thought it would go out there and perhaps take the t-shirt listing and put it on your site but this is actually creating t-shirts for you it will make yeah it will create the t-shirts for you and then put it onto your screen coms store and then we were talking about the traffic thing and this is where it comes in super powerful because you can set it so that it will share on your Pinterest page on your Twitter page Facebook if you like and also a website called when a low and I haven't actually heard it pronounced so I'm probably saying it wrong but it's called it's W am elo and that there is a sorry the reason that we love it is because screen comm has actually done some work with this site - so that any time you if you want to promote you have to get approval from when a low to promote your products and and your stuff and friends gone and done all of that so as soon as if you want to share it you can link it up there and it's kind of like Etsy or its it's a great big selling site basically and everyone goes it's kind of like it seemed mixed with Pinterest sort of and everyone shares and all that kind of thing and they come and like your shirts and share it and you get you can get massive shares like every time we just post one up there will get like at least 20 30 people and it's completely hands-free they'll just go and like it and share it and it yeah it's really really cool are you guys going to have an example site for for me to show my people that I can put under the interview or is it something yeah oh I'll give you the link yeah perfect take a look at that it yeah it's really really cute yeah okay and the thing is you can make it really look like anything so we have our set up and it's cool okay room and then I'll give you the link anyway but it's got it you can change the header you can change the background colors you can change the button colors if you want you can change how you you can change so much of it so it's a very flexible theme you can add widgets so you can you yeah it's very flexible and easy I I'm very excited about know you're excited about it okay so for the the front end offer that people are gonna see on the sales page that's going to include the theme what else are they gonna get in that in that first front end offer I'm gonna say you'll get the theme it also comes with like I was mentioning it it's all broken down into your little step-by-step pieces so and at each of those steps you get a tutorial video if you want to go through that and they're really short snappy and just in case you get stuck and you're probably mostly you won't get stuck at all because it's quite straightforward but if you are you can just click the button and Surin has recorded a whole bunch of walkthrough so you can just follow through and the whole setup and you'll also get this a report I could probably actually we can share that report already sure so we it you wanted to before you tell me about the report I'm a little bit like the players because I'm just a bit excited no no no problem okay so the theme they're gonna get instructions how to set it up one-time offer it's going to be that way of setting it up so that you can get filled out the shirt yeah that's gonna create go out there create the shirts for you put them on screen bring them to your hype to your website and display them on there do any other one-time offers that we should be aware of I think there are some we have a membership site bundle so on it's not really for everyone if you're just starting out but for more advanced people it's a really great way to get get membership sites set up without actually having to do a whole lot of work but the video probably explain it a little bit more it so it's sort of a little bit more involved but it's a fantastic product cool okay and now let's I think we're gonna have a free report for people that are interested in kind of getting a little bit more information before the product goes live tomorrow let us know well what's what's in that what's in that report well in the report and sahrin has written out a whole bunch like a way to go and get started if you want to create your first screen comm store how to do the research how to set it up how to create it and how to promote it so a whole bunch of ideas on how to really get started and we we really just want to help you guys out so if like the link will be did you say it'll be above yeah above um so yeah go and grab that free report there's like you there's no stress if it's not for you it's not for you but I would highly recommend that you go and tested it like go and check out the report because it would give you some more information about t-shirt marketing why this whole t-shirt thing is so exciting and and how you can just get involved in it without actually having to go and shell out a whole ton of cash Cindy thank you so much for for coming on the show today it's always a pleasure having you on there we'll have people go ahead and check out that free report as always thank you and best of luck thank you I hope you enjoyed the interview today with Cindy if you are interested in picking up an early bird discounted price

RSI Comm-Link: Q&A: Aopoa Nox
Q&A: Aopoa Nox
Greetings Citizens!
Since the introduction of the Hull Series back in April 2015, every new concept ship reveal has had an accompanying Q&A post, where we spend a couple days collecting questions from you, pass those on to the relevant ship designer, and provide you the best answers we have available at that time.
With the addition of Spectrum eariler this year, we can now allow you to add your vote to the questions you most want to see answered. The questions included below are a combination of those that received the most votes, similar questions that were merged into a single instance, and those we felt we could comfortably answer at this stage in the Aopoa Nox’s life.
With the Nox, not only is it concept complete but it is also far along into it’s development, with a hope to include it in the upcoming Alpha 3.0 release. While it is farther along than most ships for our Q&As, there are still some unanswered questions we’re currently pursuing in development. As the game continues to be fleshed out, those missing answers will be determined and implemented. While it will still be some time before we see the Aopoa Nox in game, we hope you’re as excited as we are as the game expands with the addition of another “space bike” to the Star Citizen universe.
Also, don’t forget to check out Bugsmashers released earlier today with footage of the Nox in-engine and work being done on it’s pilot visibility. Work is still ongoing with continuing adjustments to both the pilot height and UI visibility, but we thought it was a fun chance to show you where things are right now.
As always, a special thanks to Calix Reneau and Ben Lesnick for their help in answering your questions.
Let’s get to it. -DL
Which ships will be capable of transporting a Nox?
The most common question we get, and in this case our most upvoted, too! While we haven’t finished testing the Nox’s storage capability in every in-game ship, it can be used comfortably in a Freelancer, Cutlass (new) and Constellation. For smaller ships with cargo space like the Reliant & Avenger, it can physically fit but it cannot be secured. It’s not likely that will go well in practice, but we expect you to try it all the same and let us know when the Nox is added to the game.
When in atmosphere, is the Nox a ground-only vehicle, or can it also fly at higher altitudes, across canyons, through clouds, etc.
While the Nox will always has access to its multitude of thrusters, fighting gravity can be strenuous and ultimately unsustainable. Like the Dragonfly before it, the Nox can be used in space and on the ground, but it cannot make the transition on its own. For the purposes of operating down surface-side, it’s best to think of the Nox as a ground vehicle in this regard.
When water/oceans are added to the game, will the Nox be able to speed across the water at a high enough speed?
Yes. We thought about making a longer answer to this, but decided not to. Don’t you hate it when you get long-winded answers that can ultimately be summed up in just a single word? Brevity is the soul of wit, as they say. I don’t remember who said it, though.
What is the max type of wearable armor can I wear while flying the Nox?
This is a topic that affects all ships in Star Citizen. Currently, we are still evaluating what armors you’ll be allowed to wear when piloting any ship or vehicle in the game.
How fast can the Nox fly in space?
At present, the Nox has a top SCM of 220 and with afterburner can reach speeds of 550 in space. On the ground, that ratio is 40/100. 100 meters per second, 1 meter off the ground is pretty impressive.
Does the Nox handle rough terrain any different or worse than the Dragonfly?
Even though vehicles like the Nox and the Dragonfly before it hover over terrain, it will still have effects on its handling. In this regard, the Nox might not handle very coarse terrain as well as the more utility-built Dragonfly.
Does the Nox have a storage compartment for small items?
It does not. The limited cargo capacity of the Dragonfly comes at the sacrifice of its rear passenger seat. The Nox is purpose built to get you where you’re going, with greater speed, and even greater style.
Will we ever be able to paint our own ships? If so, what makes the Nox Kue limited?
We do not have specifics to detail on the paint system at this time. In the case of limited edition ships like the Nox Kue (or the Dragonfly Yellow) we don’t think the idea of decorating your own ship is incongruous with having manufacturer-offered editions. This is patterned after real life automotive manufacturers who typically offer a predetermined set of finishes (including limited editions.) Any car you buy today can, with varying degrees of expense and effort, be repainted to match any color of the rainbow… but collectors ascribe significant value only to the original finishes (which are also often more difficult to replicate exactly on the secondary market.) We are also exploring the idea of unique badges and identifiers for the limited edition variants. In short, while you may be able to paint a standard Nox silver in the future, it won’t ever be a “Nox Kue.”
Can I store a rifle or any larger weapons on/in it seeing as how it seem you can’t ride it with anything other than a pistol?
Unfortunately no. Like a cave in the swamps of Dagobah, you have only what you take with you.
Does it lean when it turns?
Currently in testing, it will lean with you when you strafe, and when you are done with the yaw portion of the turn, you will continue to lean until you stop skidding. It’s pretty cool.
Will the Nox be faster than the Dragonfly?
Under ideal conditions, the Nox with its Competition-class components will give you a distinct advantage in races. That said, the Dragonfly may take the advantage over more difficult terrain. Choose your routes wisely.
Will the Nox have upgradable components like shields and power plants?
Vehicle-scale components are a relatively new addition to our ship item system. The Nox comes with Competition Grade C components. In the future, we intend you to be able to customize the components with higher grade Competition options. What other styles of components will be compatible with the Nox remains to be seen.
How is the Nox “powerful in combat” as stated in ATV?
When Chris Smith mentioned the Nox being “powerful in combat” on ATV, he was referring to its direct comparison with the other vehicle in its class, the Drake Dragonfly. While similarly armed, the Nox would seem to have the advantage in speed that allows you to chase down your targets for efficiently, tremendous agility with its 16 maneuvering thrusters, and the added armor that protects its passenger more adequately from incoming fire.
Will the Nox have stealth capability, or have access to stealth capability in some way?
Stealth in Star Citizen is mostly about managing the emissions you make. In this regard, you will still have the same flexibility to manage your power consumption and overall signature as you will on any other ship. Additionally, you may find added benefit if you choose to replace your competition components with stealth items, but to do so would come at the cost of overall speed and performance.
Does the Nox have landing gear, for when it’s powered all the way down?
No, the Nox hovers at all times with emergency power. If you’ve drained even that, it will fall and be sad. Take care of your Nox.
What makes the Nox almost as expensive and in some cases more than a spaceship with jump engine and quantum drive?
It’s important to remember that ships are priced using a component matrix rather than some type of ladder that climbs from one to another. This matrix accounts for many factors including individual component types and rarity. The Nox, for instance, has a number of purpose-built racing components where the Aurora uses more common, mass produced equipment as it is intended both in and out of lore to be a vehicle that introduces new pilots to space travel. While it’s true that the Nox does not have a jump engine or a quantum drive of an Aurora, it boasts performance and provides specialization in its intended role that the former cannot match. (For comparison, a purpose-built racing bike can cost significantly more than an entry level car today, despite ‘only’ having two tires.)
Is this mainly a racer, or does it have other purposes i.e. ground combat?
While primarily designed for speed, with its high maneuverability and S1 ship weapons, the Nox has a devastating potential in flanking slower and squishier infantry. Just don’t crash into things. Another major ‘game purpose’ of the Nox (and Dragonfly) that shouldn’t be understated is for traveling around our procedurally generated worlds. In a word, they’re BIG… so you’ll want a fast vehicle to traverse their surfaces and explore their mysteries.
Can I gimbal the guns if I choose? or am I stuck with fixed?
Like the Dragonfly before it, the Nox can only use S1 fixed weaponry.
What distance can it travel on maximum speed?
Standard SCM flight on ships doesn’t burn fuel in the sense we know today. With the technological advancements of 930 years, ships equipped with the proper intakes like the NOX can create and replenish the fuel necessary for everyday operation. In this way, you can travel at maximum SCM speed for extended periods of time. For afterburner speed, you will still have a limited amount of fuel as with any other ship.
If the Nox loses power, would we be trapped in our seat by the articulating back plate?
Presently, the back will articulate anyway, although it’s an interesting idea that might warrant a unique animation for such an event in the future.

Hope ~ Peter Parker (pt. III)
Summary: Y/N gears up and gets ready to go into battle, determined as ever to get her best friend and the love of her life, Peter Parker, back to her after 5 long years without him.
Fandom: MCU
Warnings: bit of swearing as per usual, depictions of violence, fighting, blood, death, and other gory scenes, angst and fluffy at the end. THIS DOES NOT FOLLOW MCU CANON! EVERYONE WHO HAS BEEN SNAPPED WAS AGED THE SAME AS THOSE WHO WEREN’T, SO PETER IS STILL THE SAME AGE OF Y/N, AND THEY ARE BOTH AROUND 21!!!!
Word Count: 10100 (28 pages wOAh)
A/N: finally, the long-awaited finale for Hope is here! Thanks to everyone who showed so much support for this series I love every single one of you honestly! Lmk if you guys want an epilogue? cause I don't wanna be done with this series yet lol
If you haven’t read the first two parts, I would suggest looking through them before reading this!
PART 1 ~ PART 2 ~ MASTERLIST
~~~
Y/N walked towards the large platform in the middle of the room with the remaining of the Avengers, all in their rather cool looking matching time heist suits. She had to admit that she felt pretty badass, walking alongside the world's mightiest heroes, going off to save the world like it was any other Tuesday for them.
After the young girl found out the formula of time travel and showed it to Tony, they had created a steady device and explained the idea to the team, which everyone quickly agreed with. They had been split up into three teams to go back in time and gather all six infinity stones before Thanos could find or use them. The teams were split up into Natasha, Clint, Nebula and Rhodey to get the soul and power stones, Thor, and Rocket to get the reality stone (or ether I guess), and Scott, Bruce, Tony, Steve and Y/N to get the Time, Mind, and Space stones.
The team now stood on the platform, putting their hands together as Steve performed his motivational speech, Y/N clung onto every word, still shocked that she got to suit up with them, and also a bit nervous. But she knew that she had the proper training if it came to it and if worse comes to worst, she has a quick solution handy in her pocket, one that she's been carrying around for years.
"One round trip each. No mistakes, no do-overs," Cap spoke as he looked around at everyone in the circle. "Most of us are going to a place we know; that doesn't mean we should know what to expect. Be careful, look out for each other." Y/N looked beside her up at Tony, who smiled reassuringly at her. "This is the fight of our lives, and we're gonna win. Whatever it takes." Steve finished his speech as they separated hands. Y/N looked over at Nat and gave her a smile, to which she returned.
"See you in a minute," she says winking over at her mentee. She rolled her eyes but laughed. Suddenly the machine above them started to whir and spin around, and the mask on Y/N's suit came up to cover her face. She felt her breathing start to go heavy but soon relaxed as Tony gave her hand a squeeze. She felt her body being compressed down into the size of an atom and swept away into the quantum realm, trying to control herself and following the lead of Tony just in front of her.
Before she knew it her feet hit the ground below her and her knees buckled from underneath her. As she regained her balance and looked up, her eyes went wide as she took in the scene in front of her. Just a few feet away, she saw the original Avengers, formed in a circle and gearing up for the infamous battle of 2012 against Loki. Y/N almost let out a squeal, remembering watching them do their work on the news when she was younger.
"You alright there?" Tony asked as he gave the girl a teasing smile. "You look like you're about to explode." Y/N shook her head but smiled back.
"Yeah I just, wow I was such a fan of you guys when I was younger," she said as she watched on as they parted ways and did their own thing to take down as many aliens as possible. She then looked back up at Tony and smirked, one that reminded him of himself. "You guys were so much cooler back then. Now you're all like, big old grampa's."
"Woah!" Tony said, giving her a playful look of pain as he grabbed his heart as if she had stabbed him with her comment. "Ouch, you know I understand why you would say that for Cap, cause he's literally like, 100 years old but for me?"
"Guys we have to focus here," Bruce caught their attention before Y/N could come back with another snarky comeback. "God sometimes I wonder how the two of you arent's related, you're like the same person nowadays." Tony rolled his eyes, looking back out onto the street.
Before they could try and cross the street to get to the Stark Tower, a giant and raging green Hulk came down from the ground, pounding robots into the ground and flinging them around like ragdolls. As the group looked back at Bruce he covered his face, embarrassed of what he used to be. Steve told Bruce and Scott to find Dr. Strange and the time stone while he, Tony, and Y/N went up to the Stark tower to get the mind and space stone. As they got in and saw the past Avengers, Steve departed to get Loki's staff, containing the mind stone, while Tony and Y/N worked on getting the Tesseract.
Y/N hid out in a small conference room out of sight, since Tony didn't want her directly participating in the mission, much to her demise. She opened her laptop, which she disguised as a briefcase. She quickly typed in the password before pulling up multiple programs on the small screen, including a camera view from Tony's glasses and a controller for a small robotic device she'd use to slip around without being realized.
"You sure this is gonna work, kid?" Tony asked quietly through the comm, causing Y/N to roll her eyes.
"Yes, Tony. I've been working on this model forever, I know what I'm doing," she sassed back, looking through a small camera on the spider-shaped device she originally created with Peter. "Just remember I'm the reason we're all here. I'm not just a pretty face, Stark."
"Yeah yeah," he mumbled as he watched his past self pack up the Tesseract in a briefcase. "Ok, spider-girl, release your little spiderling." He says dramatically as the spider crawls from his pocket and makes its way onto the roof. Y/N chuckled at the nickname before focusing on controlling the spider-robot, the decoy lowering itself onto past Tony's shoulder without anyone noticing. She couldn't help but let out a little squeal at her excellent work. She watched through the small cam as the Avengers (excluding Hulk, who was told to take the stairs) made their way into the foyer of the building.
Tony watched along as his past self walks along with the other original Avengers and Loki. Alexander Pierce and his crew walked towards them as present-day Tony gave Y/N the signal to drop down. Y/N dropped the spider drone into Tony's beard and then down onto his chest, the almost microscopic robot slipping through and into his arc reactor. She explores for a while until she finds what Tony had told her would cause the distraction.
"Is this really a good idea, Stark?" Y/N asked worriedly, not thinking of the consequences until then.
"Yeah, sure. It'll only cause me to go into a tiny cardiac distract," Tony stated casually, and Y/N's eyes widened immediately, stopping the robot.
"What?!" She says, shaking her head. "Okay, no. No no no no no. I'm not gonna do this, we can figure out something else it'll be fine."
"Y/N, hey, calm down," Tony says, his voice going lower. "Don't worry, I'll be fine. I mean I'm still here, so that's gotta mean something right? If I died I wouldn't be here." Y/N scoffed at his words, but still, her hands were shaking, not wanting to hurt someone she had gotten so close to. She couldn't bear if anything happened to him.
"No shit, Sherlock," she whispers back into the comm, but loud enough for him to hear it. He rolled his eyes and continued to watch as Pierce tried to snatch the case away from his hands. "Time's running out, Y/N. Pull my pin!"
"Okay, okay, give me a second." She said as she maneuvered the tiny device to the said area with a small pin that helped keep everything in the arc reactor together. "But if you die, Tony, it'll be your funeral. Literally." She comments back to try and defuse the tension she felt. He quietly gave her another reassurance before giving the signal. With the small metal pinchers, Y/N pulled the cord in the arc reactor and through the other camera through Tony's glasses she saw past Tony fall to the floor just as Pierce was taking the case containing the Tesseract from his hands.
The metal case fell to the floor with a hard clank and 2012 Tony followed soon after it, shaking slightly on the floor. Pierce and his crew members, as well as the other Avengers there, kneeled down beside him and tried to figure out what was wrong.
The small metallic robot climbed out from Tony's reactor and pushed the case over to Tony, who was disguised as a staff of security. He discreetly picked it up and began walking away from the scene as medics began rushing to help the famous billionaire on the floor. What they didn't know was that they weren't as discreet as they thought.
"Good job, kid. Meet me in the alley, I'm gonna-" but was cut off as a big green angry hulk burst through the door, knocking down Tony and flinging the tesseract out of its case and down the hallway. The bright blue square landed right at the feet of Loki, who looked down and quickly picked it up, using its powers to teleport him out of the tower as people were too distracted running in terror.
Thor tapped his hammer against Tony's chest, causing him to stop shaking and blink frantically, looking at his surroundings. "Where's the case?" Y/N heard him ask. Her face dropped as she moved to drone to look all around the room, finding no clue where the Tesseract or Loki himself was.
"Fuck this," she mumbled, working her computers to try and get into the security tapes, looking for what might've happened to either of them. "That wasn't supposed to happen, was it?"
Tony sat himself up on his elbows looking around to see people screaming and running away from the Hulk, who was screaming about no stairs, and to his other side, officers looking for Loki and the Tesseract. “Shit.”
Y/N quickly packed up her computers and put them back into her bag, running out to meet Tony at the alleyway where they had come in. She found an abandoned car parked beside it and saw Tony already sitting in its head in his hand as he observed the destruction outside.
“What the hell happened, Stark?” She said as she got into the back seat. “We had the Tesseract, where did it go?” Tony sighed, closing his eyes as he responded, trying to keep calm.
“I don’t know what happened, Y/N,” he said tensely. “I know we had it but now we don’t, okay? Something happened, I don’t know what.”
“Well, you better fucking figure it out!” She yelled, her ears going red as she got more angry by him not seeming to care. “Did you not hear what Cap said? No do-overs! We fucked up so what are we gonna do now!”
“I don’t know what we’re gonna do!” He screamed back turning to face her. He sighed, running a hand down his face and closed his eyes. He stayed silent for a bit, using the silence to calm himself down. He knew she was only acting like this because she was scared. And honestly, he was too. “But we’ll figure something out. I promise. Everything will be okay.”
Y/N gulped to hold back her screaming, not wanting to rant to him about every little thing that had already gone wrong, and how she was starting to lose hope. Then Cap jumped down from a balcony, one hand propping up the shield while the other gripped Loki’s staff.
“Cap,” Tony caught his attention. Steve saw them in the dirt-covered car as he walked towards them. “We’ve got a bit of a problem here.” Y/N scoffed, shaking her head as she let her stress get the better of her again.
“A bit of a problem?” She asked sarcastically. “More like we’re in deep shit!” She said getting out of the car and slamming the door shut with surprising force. Tony rolled his eyes. Steve looked between the two, his eyebrows scrunching up in confusion.
“What happened?” he asked, looking at Y/N. She laughed ironically, starting to pace along the alleyway.
“We lost the goddamn Tesseract is what happened!” She said as she aggressively kicked a piece of debris on the ground. “It’s gone and now the plan isn’t gonna work. We don’t have enough Pym particles to go back again. It’s over, we’re done.” She leaned down and sat against the wall, leaning her head back.
“Are there any other options with the Tesseract,” Steve asked, causing Y/N to roll her eyes at his always enthusiastic goody-two-shoes energy.
“No. No there’s not,” she said annoyed as she stood up and walking over to him. “You said it yourself, there are no do-overs. If we use that last Pym particle, we’re never getting home.”
“Well, if we don’t try, no one else is going home either,” he stated. Y/N sighed, squeezing her eyes shut as she leaned against the car. She knew he was right. But what was the use of going back again to get the stone if they couldn’t get back in the present to put it in the gauntlet?
“I got it,” Tony said suddenly, getting out of the car. Y/N’s head shot up as she stood up and followed him as he got out of the car himself. “There’s another way to get the Tesseract and acquire new particles. We’ll take a stroll down memory lane. Military installation Garden State.”
“Why were they both there?” Steve asked, causing Y/N to look between the two as they continued their conversation. Tony shrugged.
“They were both there for a…” he trailed off as he thought. “I have a vaguely exact idea,” he defended himself. Cap gave him a look, the same one he gave Y/N when he caught her doing something she shouldn’t have around the compound or when she sasses one of the other team members a bit too much.
“How vague,” he asked.
“Woah, okay, what’s going on?” Y/ finally butted in. “What are you guys talking about? Where are we going?” She asked eagerly as they started entering in the time date and coordinates.
“Correction, we’re going. You’re travelling back to the present to give this to the others,” Tony said as he handed her Loki’s staff. Her eyes bulged out as she stood up straighter.
“Tony, I can help. I’m not letting you guys go alone, I’m coming with you,” she stated strongly as she put her suit up. Tony shook his head.
"I trust you with this, kid, okay? get back to home base, we'll be there by the time you get back." He said as he and Steve put up their own suits. He took her hand and entered in the present-day coordinates to get back home as she looked at him like he was crazy, which she currently felt he was.
"What?! But Tony-!" She started, but before Y/N could argue, she felt the ground sweep from under her feet and she was being sent back to the present day, Loki's staff still held tightly in her hand.
As she regained her balance, she looked around the room, seeing that everyone had their respective stone's, including Tony with the Tesseract. But something seemed off. She did another swift headcount of everyone and realized someone had to be missing.
"Where's Nat?" She asked, looking around at everyone's confused faces before looking at Clint, whose eyes were red and glassy. She watched as he looked up at her, shaking his head slightly as a fresh tear rolled down his face. Y/N felt her chest tighten as her mouth opened slightly, letting out a shuttering breath. She knew that face, she wore the same expression five years ago.
She felt tears well up into her eyes, not even thinking of losing a mentor, someone she considered family during the process of getting those who were snapped away back. She felt tears starting to form in her own eyes as regret and sadness took over the whole team.
~~~
The team had taken a quick break to take a moment to mourn their friend, to some even their family. It was odd to not have Natasha around, making small sarcastic quips at any person in the room when you’d least expect it. Y/N quickly splashed her face with water, making the tears on her face earlier vanish as she went back into the room where Tony had just completed the infinity gauntlet 2.0 and everyone was arguing over who should snap their fingers.
“What do you think is coursing through my veins right now?” She heard as she exited the ladies bathroom just beside the room. She leaned against the doorframe as she answered.
“Cheez Whiz?” she asked sarcastically as she came up to stand in between the god and Tony. Thor looked down, confusion on his face as he pointed at her and she, in return, gave him a sly smile.
“Lightning,” he emphasized. Y/N sucked in a breath and averted her gaze as he looked expectantly at Tony, who let out a sigh as he pinched his eyebrows together in concentration.
“Lightning won’t help you, pal. It’s gotta be me,” she heard Bruce say from behind her as he walked to the group. She listened intently as he continued. “You saw what those stones did to Thanos; it almost killed him. None of you would survive.”
“Well, how will we know if you will?” Cap said seriously. Y/N looked at Tony, who looked down at her and gave her a knowing glance, that showed he knew it was true. Y/N nodded slightly as Bruce continued.
“We don’t. But the radiation is mostly gamma. It’s… it’s like I was made for this.” The team looked around before Tony stepped out and started explaining the rules of the stones.
“Remember, everyone Thanos snapped away five years ago, we’re just bringing them back to now. Don’t change anything from the past five years,” he said and Bruce nodded, looking at his arm which he prepared to hold the gauntlet in.
The team around him suited up. Y/N felt the cool nanotech of her newly modelled suit slide over her skin, occasionally catching a thin hair. The spiderman-inspired outfit was of the colours white, black, and magenta, with fine reflective webbing details along the side of her arms, legs and torso. She stood behind Tony as he created a protective shield in front of them and Clint on the other side of him.
Metallic barn doors shut around all doors and windows in the room and around the compound. Bruce put on the glove holding the infinity stones and immediately began to scream in pain, doubling down to the ground as he struggled to push his fingers together to snap.
“Take it off! Take it off!” Thor said as he stepped towards Banner, who was still struggling to stay upright. Steve held out his hand to Thor as a sign to stop.
“No, wait! Bruce, are you okay?” Steve asked as he looked at the green giant. Bruce continued to moan but nodded slightly. Y/N stood back further as she heard Banner scream loudly and saw his fingers coming closer together and finally the sound of the metal hitting metal in the snap.
There was a surge of power that almost knocked her over, stumbling to catch her balance. She heard a loud thump as Bruce’s body finally collided with the floor, unconscious. Many people ran towards him to help but Y/N just looked around. She felt her feet carry her to the window as they opened again, seeing birds chirping happily outside.
"D-did it work?" Y/N mumbled as the mask of her suit disappeared from around her face. Everyone turned to look at where she was, seeing multiple new birds coming into sight, planting themselves on a nearby sapling. A phone started to ring, and Clint walked over to his cell vibrating on the glass table, a picture of his beloved wife displayed on the screen. He picked it up and started talking to her.
Tony walked over to Y/N, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder, bringing her attention over to him. He wore a giant smile and even looked like he was in tears. He squeezed her shoulder as she let out a gasp, hand covering her mouth as the biggest smile spread across her soft features. She laughed softly, in disbelief but so happy. Tony matched her actions and pulled her into the biggest hug, and she felt comfortable as she placed her head on his chest.
"We did it, kid," he mumbled into her messy hair, feeling her locks dampen with his tears. "We finally did it. They're back." Y/N laughed again into his suit as she pulled him closer and hugged him tighter, closing her eyes as she felt true relief finally wash over her entire being. But of course, that wouldn't last for long.
Next thing she knew she was being flung across the compound while a missile hit just outside the window. She felt herself fly through multiple layers of brick and glass, piercing her skin and knocking the breath from her lungs. She coughed heavily as the dust from the rubble entered her system, trying to balance herself enough to stand up and analyze the situation.
"Tony?!" She screamed, looking for the older man that she was just in contact with. "Tony?! Cap?! Thor?!" She screamed any name that came to mind, hoping for someone to hear her, and possibly give her an explanation. She was limping, pain shooting through her ankle whenever she out the slightest pressure on it. It was definitely broken. She felt the metallic taste of blood entering her mouth, and she was scared to say she didn't know where it came from, her now bleeding nose or the small cuts that littered her cheeks and lips.
"Y/N?" She heard a voice say and sighed with relief. From the dust came Clint, holding something in his arms, the Infinity Gauntlet. "Hey, I got you, you're okay," He reassures her as he puts an arm across her back and under her arms, supporting her weight so she can walk. "Tony, I'm with the kid, she seems okay."
"Is he okay?" she asked quietly when Clint found a safe spot. He looked at her and nodded.
"yeah he's fine, but almost had a heart attack when he couldn't find you," he says, offering her a smile before his face went stoic again. "But he's here. Thanos. He found us." Y/N's eyes went wide, her eyebrows furrowing into a line of confusion. She blinked a couple of times as she processed the new information.
"What? But-- but Thanos i-is dead? He's dead! You said he was dead!" She screams as she feels her heart rate quicken, her breath refusing to meet her lips as if it was stuck inside her throat. Clint reached down and held her hand, rubbing his thumb against the back of her hands as a calming method he has seen Tony use on her before.
"I know, I thought he was gone too," he whispered, looking back at the dark tunnel before turning back to her. "But this is a different Thanos, he followed us from the past." Y/N felt her throat close up, dark thoughts filling her mind. Fuck. This was all her fault.
There was a sound that came from down the tunnel, almost like a snarl. The pair went quiet, looking towards the source. Clint slowly took out an arrow from the collection he kept on his back, placing it in his bow and shooting it straight down the line, the end glowing up-- revealing about ten or twelve alien-looking dogs. Y/N let out a breath as the two scurried to get up. Clint held up her weight as they ran, eventually settling to pick her up as he ran from the dogs.
As they came to a split in the road, Clint threw her to a different path, signalling for her to run and hide as he continued to run down the other path, provoking the dogs to follow him and leave her. Y/N limped down the path, using the wall to support her as she hopped along. Soon she came across a mop of messy hair frantically looking around the rubble.
"Tony," she tried to say but found that her voice was scratchy and weak. "Tony, I'm right here." The said man turned around the stress on his face leaving as he saw the girl he was looking for. He quickly wrapped an arm around as Clint had earlier and walked her away from the scene.
"God, hey kid. You hanging in there?" He said, checking the area before leading her to a small space of coverage under a piece of rubble that looked like it used to be the floor. She nodded in reassurance before grabbing his arm and pulling him back up.
“I need you to take me to our lab, now,” she said urgently and he obliged, not even thinking of asking why. He directed her to a small metal door attached to a broken piece of wall, typing in a code on the damaged keyboard before pushing the heavy doors open.
She rushed over to her part of the lab, the barely working glass screen table popping up and she quickly punched in a few passwords before looking in a locked drawer for one of the small viles kept safely there. Tony looked from her face to the small tube, confusion painting his face as he watched her pop the lid, hesitating before bringing it to her lips and gulping down the small amount of dark red liquid.
Y/N felt the iron tasting liquid slid down her throat as she swallowed it uncomfortably, immediately feeling the effects. Her eyesight went black and her head started to spin. She went to grab the nearest object her hold herself up, the dizziness and broken ankle not being the best combination. Tony rushed to her side, grabbing her other arm.
"Y/N, what the hell was that," Tony said, concern laced his voice as he watched the girl groan, squeezing her eyes shut and throwing her head back. She gulped before answering in short breaths.
"That answer may vary between poison and what I like to call a spider-serum," she replied, sarcasm still in use through her pain. Tony looked at her with bewilderment in his eyes, as this was not a project approved by him or not even one they've talked about. She gritted her teeth together, continuing to moan out in pain as she collapsed to the floor, Tony calling out her name.
As Y/N got her self together, she placed both hands on the desk in front of her nailed into the floor, using it to pull herself back on her feet. She felt everything in her body changing, she could hear the blood rushing through her veins, she could smell the smoke from across the battlefield outside the reinforced metal door, she could feel the small hairs on Tony's arms tickling her own as he tried to shake her out of her trance.
"Y/N! Kid come on, snap out of it. What the hell was that?" He said as he continued to shake her. She was going to bring a hand up to slap his own away but instead found them stuck to the table. As she tried tugging again, the steal table breaking off the floor while still sticking to her hands. Y/N and Tony looked in shock.
Y/N then began to laugh, her eyes wide in disbelief. She widened her hands and the desk fell from her palms, crashing against the floor. "Holy shit," she whispered as she looked at Tony, who was looking from the now broken table to her. "It worked! Oh god, I can't believe it actually worked!" She screamed as she jumped up and down and headed towards the door.
"No no no, what the hell was that?!" Tony asked. Y/N rolled her eyes, still smiling as she impatiently grabbing his arm and dragged him outside towards the fight. She smiled at him, a great look of success overgoing her as she showed him the potion she had been perfecting for the last couple of years.
“Well, I took a blood sample of Peter’s and checked it to see what kind of stuff the spider had injected into him,” she said as Tony gave her a weird look. “Don’t ask how I got it, I don’t really know either. But as I analyzed it further, I had an idea to take the sample and separate the effects of the injection, and used it to create a serum that would give me powers similar to Peter’s, using the poison of his spider to create powers of my own.”
Tony looked at her mesmerized, then looked at the stash of dark red vials in the drawer. He lifted his eyebrows and nodded, impressed beyond words of the young girl's discovery. Then he paused and looked back at her. “Wait, so you technically drank spiderboy’s blood?” He asked suspiciously. Y/N opened her mouth to respond but didn’t quite know how.
“I-” she paused, closing her eyes and shaking her head. “Okay, no, we don’t have time for this conversation right now. There’s a giant purple grape out that waiting to be slain.” Tony nodded and soon the two headed out the door without any further questions, saluting each other before Y/N darted off at an irregularly fast tempo.
She felt the wind blow rapidly against her hair as she ran through the bad guys, dodging hits with swiftness. Of course, she wasn't fast like Pietro but definitely was faster than she usually was, which proved to be a great advantage while on the battlefield. Y/N saw Tony, Thor and Steve fighting against Thanos in the background as she thwiped out a web and flew into the air, grabbing one of the Chiari and slamming it into another group coming towards her.
She continued to fight when suddenly she felt a tingly sense that made her head shoot towards Steve, watching as he stood up by himself, his shield broken in his hand, as he prepared to single-handedly fight the titan. Y/N ran towards him when she heard a voice in her comm, that definitely wasn't from anyone on their battlefield.
"On your left..."
She seemed to distantly recognize the voice but couldn't quite place it. That is until a portal appeared beside Steve, made of orange sparks that she had remembered. There, the king of Wakanda, T'Challa, his younger sister, Shuri she thought her name was, and another girl who was dressed in a warriors uniform and a shaved head, holding a golden spear stood beside the king.
After that, portal after portal began to form around the atmosphere, with more battleships, superheroes and warriors of all kinds of countries and galaxies appearing through them and getting into their battle positions. Y/N smiled proudly before running up to the giant team and taking her place next to the Wakandian princess, lunging down into the iconic spidey stance and getting ready to avenge the rest of the universe. She looked at Steve as he watched everyone take their places among him.
"Avengers..." he starts as he holds out his hand and Mjolner flies into his grip. "Assemble!"
Battle cries and the sound of machines whirring and flying filled the atmosphere as they ran towards the alien army opposite of them. Y/N flicked out her wrist and grabbed onto one of the giants floating motherships and swung low to the ground, knocking out multiple enemies at once. Once she landed on the ground she continued to fist fight them off of her one by one, like Natasha had taught her for so many years.
But as good as she was doing at the moment, it wasn't hard for her to get overpowered when a bunch jumped on her back at once, knocking her down to the floor, struggling to keep them from ripping out her skin. She tried to push them off, and successfully webbed some to the ground to keep them off of her, but it wasn't enough to handle them all.
"Hey, watch out!" A boyish voice sounded through her comms as all the aliens were kicked right off of her, giving her a chance to stand up and fight off the rest, her rescuer standing behind her, back to back, as they both slung down the dogs and threw them across the battlefield. Y/N stabbed some with her pincer things Tony put on her back.
Once they were gone, Y/N grabbed the boy behind her and pulled him into a quieter place as she unmasked herself, looking expectantly at the boy. "Peter?" She said, her voice breaking as she looked at the Iron Spider suit, which disappeared from his face, revealing his unruly curls and a just as shocked look on his face.
"Y/N?" He whispered, disbelief in his eyes as she saw a single tear escape his brown orbs and gently slide down his cheek. He looked the same, but at the same time looked more mature, and she was relieved that he had seemed to grow while he was gone, or else the near future situation would be a bit awkward. "W-what are you doing here?" Y/N giggled a bit, feeling her own hot tears sliding down her dirt and blood covered cheek as her delicate hand went up to grab his own, wiping his tears.
"I came to save you, dummy," she joked. Peter smiled at her, placing his hands on her waist. Although it wasn't as long for Peter in the soul stone as it was for Y/N while on Earth since he was in a coma-like state pretty much the whole time, he had missed her honey-coated voice and sickly sweet smile. He had waited too long for this.
They watched each other for a little longer, analyzing the small details that had changed around their faces since the years passed before Peter leaned down and attached their lips together for a very long-awaited kiss. Y/N squeezed her eyes shut as her hands trailed back to rest on the back of his neck, playing with the small hairs at the nape of his neck as she felt the cold metal of his suit brush against her fingertips.
As they parted, he leaned down and pressed his forehead to hers, her sweat mixing with his as they kept their eyes closed and smiled at the feeling. Even though they were in the middle of a war, Y/N has never felt more at peace than that moment while she was in his arms.
Suddenly she felt the fine hairs on the back of her arm and the back of her neck stand up, and without thinking she extended her arms and traps the alien running towards them in one of her webs, throwing it up before pulling it back down to the ground, crushing it.
Apparently, Peter felt it too because when she looked back to him he was already looking back at the now-dead dog. His head turned back towards her, his mouth hanging open a bit as he let out a breath, a beautiful smile painting his lips as he grabbed her face, looking her in the eye.
'God, I love you so much," he mumbles as he brings her mouth up to his again, this kiss a bit more passionate than the last. Y/N laughed into the kiss as she brought her arms around his neck and played with his hair. She pulled him back a bit, their noses still brushing against one another as she pecked him on the lips.
"I love you too," she whispered, looking into his eyes with such adoration he almost exploded right there with the adrenaline he was feeling just having her this close to him. He smiled wider as he pecked her on the lips; once, twice, and a third time brought her into a proper kiss.
"Y'know as heartwarming as this moment is, you lovebirds realize we're still fighting a war," someone said from behind them. They quickly pulled away, stepping back from one another to face Tony Stark, a smirk on his lips as he examined the blush on the young adult's faces, bashfully looking away from one another.
"Oh shut it, Tony. I deserve this at least," she shook her head as she looked at the perfect boy beside her, someone she had known pretty much her whole life and had been in love with for just as long. Peter smiled at Tony and walked over to greet him, excited to see his mentor again after so long.
"Mr. Stark! Holy cow you will not believe what has happened to me," Peter began to ramble as he walked up to him and started to do his usual over-exaggerated hand gestures. "Do you remember when we were in space? Right? And I got all dusty? Well I must have passed out and Dr. Strange said we went to the Soul Stone and we were in like a coma for like five years, and when I woke up, Dr. Strange was there too and he was like 'it's been five years we have to go', and then he started doing that yellow sparkly thingy, uh, that he does and... what are you doing? ...oh." Peter stopped when Tony wrapped his arms around him and pulled him into a tight embrace.
Tony felt such a great sense of relief as he hugged Peter, never realizing that the kid was like his first son until it was too late and having to wait so many years to hear his voice again. He placed a kiss on his cheek, in a fatherly way, and opened his eyes, smiling at Y/N who looked so happy.
"This is nice," Peter said before they pulled away, Peter turned back at Y/N and smiled at her, his grin reaching his sparkling eyes. Tony patted his shoulder.
"I think it's time we get back into battle," he stated, his mask going back over his face as he got his repulsors ready. "You two don't take too long, and NO funny business." The pair nodded as he flew back into the air, going to help Banner or the Hulk. Peter turned back to Y/N.
"Wow, this is so awesome," he said as he walked back to her, holding her arms as he admired her suit, which looked similar to his. "You're like, my spider-girl sidekick." Y/N laughed and pushed his chest playfully.
"I'm nobody's sidekick, Parker," she said. "But I can be your... partner?" Peter smiled and blushed. He bit his lip as he looked her over again, his grin contagious.
"In what way?" He asked, trying to sound sly but sounding more scared of the answer. Y/N laughed and walked over to him, wrapping her arms around his waist.
"In whatever way you want me to be," she said, kissing his cheek before putting her mask back on and saluting him before swinging of back into battle. Peter stood there with a red blush crawling up his neck and feeling breathless, his smile growing wider if that was even possible.
"Awesome," he muttered before his mask also went over his face and he went to go help as well.
Y/N was swinging over the battle, occasionally knocking out an airborne enemy in her way if she had to. She scanned through the people fighting, looking for anyone who needed help. But then her web was seemed to be disintegrated as she fell hard onto the floor, another lazer like beam hit right beside her just barely grazing her shoulder. She saw the witch people? (that’s what Tony called them at least) started to make barriers which she quickly ran under. She looked around for Tony and Peter, but couldn’t see them. Until she heard the latter’s voice through her comm.
“Help! Somebody help!” He said, sounding panicked and she heard his grunts as he tried to fight off the aliens. Without thinking of the possible dangers she ran out to help him, her spider-senses helping her locate him. She saw him under a bunch of the aliens and shot a web up.
“Peter, duck!” She said as she rammed through the enemies, knocking them over like bowling pins. She grabbed Peter around the waist and tugged him into her as she shot a web and took them out, grabbing onto Mjloner which had flown right above.
“Aw, thanks, Y/N,” Peter said as he put his head into her neck, which she couldn’t help but blush at. She thought it was cute how their roles were sort of reversed and he was just so baby.
Y/N continued to ride onto the hammer until she saw that it was heading straight towards one of the flying motherships. Her eyes went wide as she looked for a way to get off. She saw Valkerye, one of Thor’s friends, and called out for her as a warning before throwing Peter up so he could get the gauntlet back to Scott.
Y/N then stood on the small handle of the hammer before using her web to fling herself forward, jumping up to get on top of the ship as the hammer continued to destroy it from the inside. As she jumped off and landed surprisingly gracefully on the ground, she looked up to realize that the ships were no longer firing at them, but at something in the atmosphere above.
Y/N squinted before watching a figure move at lightning speed straight through one of the ships firing at them, exploding the whole thing. Y/N smiled, knowing who it was as she ran down to help Peter up, who had just almost been hit by one of the beams.
“Hey, you alright?” She asked softly as she grabbed his arm and helped him get up, him going to get the gauntlet which had escaped his grip after falling. He nodded, his mask going back as hers did.
“Yeah, yeah, all good,” he reassured as he held onto her shoulder for support. “That was so badass, by the way. When I was like, stuck, you know, under those aliens. And then you came and was like wham! and like kicked them off and then you just sorta like picked me up and then you just like threw me onto that flying horse, which is crazy. But you like saved me and that was so cool. Like really cool. Thanks.” Peter rambled as he looked at her in awe, which she gave a sweet smile in return.
Before he could comment any more someone landed right in front of them. Captain Marvel smiled and nodded at Y/N, as she returned the gesture, and looked at Peter, who was still holding tightly onto the infinity stones. Peter looked at her with wide eyes and in awe.
“Hi I-I’m Peter.. Parker,” he said shyly. Captain Marvel smiled at him, looking between the two teenagers.
“I know,” she said as she gave Y/N a knowing glance. “Hey, Peter Parker. You got something for me?” Peter looked at the gauntlet before looking out at the army that was racing towards them, feeling scared at the moment.
“I don’t know how you’re gonna get through that,” he said as he delicately handed the glove to Carol as the other female Avengers and superheroes gathered together around her. Y/N felt immediately at home and looked over at Peter reassuringly as Wanda landed by her side.
“Don’t worry,” Y/N said with a smile as her mask got on and Okoye, T’Challa’s head of king’s guard, finished her sentence for her.
“She’s got help,” she said, and the group of them began to run like hell towards the growing army, all doing their own thing to slam through and take down the enemy. Y/N webbed them down as they tried to attack her sisters and knocked them over as she swung by. She saw one of the bigger monsters making its way towards her, and effortlessly picked it up and threw it into the rest of the aliens making their way towards her at a fast rate.
As she continued to fight off the enemy, she felt a strong surge of energy pass through her, making her stumble slightly. As she regained her balance, she watched as the aliens that were once running straight for her turned into dust, disappearing into the wind. She squinted her eyebrows, looking around for who had snapped before she felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand up, warning her that something was wrong.
She followed her senses to find Tony sitting against a piece of debris, extremely pale and barely moving, his arm and part of his face burnt off. She felt her breathing stop as she stumbled towards him, muttering his name as she collapsed in front of him in front of all the other Avengers.
“T-Tony? Tony! No!” She said as fell in front of him, going to grab his hand with both of hers. She hadn’t felt this type of heartbreak since 2018 when she had lost Peter, her mom, and the rest of her friends. But this time she was losing her father.
“Hey, kid,” he said so quietly she wouldn’t have heard him, but she was practically hugging him by now, clinging onto him as a silent way of asking not to leave her. As she heard his voice, an ugly sob ripped through her as she buried her head in his chest as a form of comfort.
“Tony, please not you too,” she asked quietly, squeezing his hand so tight that the metal surrounding it had started to cut into her palms, but she could care less. “Not you too, please. We need you, Tony. I need you, and Morgan, please.” She couldn’t even finish before breaking down.
“Mr. Stark? Can you hear me? It’s Peter.” Peter asked from behind her, shocked to see Y/N holding onto him and crying into him. Tony weakly looked up and brought his attention to the original web-slinging spider. “We won, Mr. Stark. You did it. You did it, sir.”
At the mention of his name, Y/N finally looked up towards Peter, and he felt his heart shatter looking at her already bloodshot red eyes and the tear tracks that were a bright contrast against the rest of her face, which was covered in dust and blood. He walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her, gently pulling her off and into his own arms.
“No, No! Let go, please! I need to help him. Please. No.” Her voice got quieter as Peter held her closely, her back pressed against his chest as they both watched him. Tony looked between the pair, and although it hurt him to see the tears in their eyes, he was happy that they would be able to work through it together. He looked up at Peter and nodded his chin towards Y/N.
“Take… take care of… of her,” he whispered, causing a sob to come over Peter as well as he nodded vigorously, holding her tighter against him if that was even possible at this point.
“Of course, yes always,” he said as he felt salty tears run down at a rapid pace. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry, Tony.” Tony tried to give him a smile, tried to give him a sign that everything would be okay, but found that he couldn’t.
Then Tony looked at Y/N. He remembered the last time she was like this, and it hurt him that he had to cause her the same pain. But he cared for her and knew that this was what had to happen to keep both of his daughters safe. “I love you.”
Y/N’s head fell as she heard the three simple words come from his mouth, leaning into Peter as she tries to control herself, trying to look strong in front of him, knowing who worried he must be already. “I love you, too, dad.” She whispered and nodded, reaching out to squeeze his hand one more time before Pepper came to his side. Peter carefully pulled Y/N back, her collapsing into his lap and crying into his shoulder as he rubbed her back tried to keep in his own tears to be strong for her but ended up letting go and crying into her soft hair.
“Friday?” Pepper asked, her hand on Tony’s chest as Tony’s hand was placed gently on top of hers.
“Life functions critical,” the AI responded. Y/N felt like she was gonna be sick. She couldn’t think she could breathe, how do you even breathe again? Because she couldn’t quite remember at the moment. She listened to Peter’s heartbeat and used his rising and falling chest as a model.
“Tony? Look at me,” Pepper managed a smile at Tony as he groaned while turning to look towards her. “You’re gonna be okay, you can rest now,” she said as she put a hand on his cheek, gently caressing it before placing a soft kiss to it. And after that, the light on his chest went dim, and it took everything in Y/N not to scream like the day she found out Peter wasn’t coming home for dinner that night.
She felt Peter shaking around her, choking on sobs. She knew he would try and act as a support base for her, and he always liked to put others before himself. But she just held onto him, her hands going up to his messy hair and carting her fingers through the strands as a silent way to tell him that she was there for him too.
The Avengers and other heroes and warriors who had teamed up together to fight kneeled down, showing their respect to another beautiful life taken. The chaos in the warzone had gone quiet, a moment of silence taken in honour of Tony Stark.
And just like that, he was gone, just another figure of history in the textbooks. But to others he was a friend, he was a teammate, he was an idol, he was family. And God knows that he wouldn’t be forgotten for what he was, a hero.
~~~
The funeral occurred a couple of weeks later, only close friends and family were invited at the small gathering at the lake house where he lived with his family. It was odd, walking into the house and feeling so much dread in a place she considered a getaway just days before, a place that brought her such a feeling of happiness and relief.
She sat quietly in a soft chair in the corner, trying to process everything that was happening and everything that would come with it afterwards. She had just finished watching Tony’s video to his family, which Pepper insisted included her, and felt heartbroken at the thought that it would truly be the last time she saw him, ever again.
“Hey,” his soft voice said as Peter crouched down next to her, a hand on her knee as he gently squeezed. His eyes were red and puffy, just as hers were, and he wore a black and white suit that looked nice on him, though it seemed an inappropriate time to comment on it. “They’re starting the service soon, um, by the lake. I think we should go.” Y/N nodded, standing up from her chair and taking his hand in her own, finding comfort in his warm and soft grip.
The two walked out to the deck, one that she had so many memories on with the rest of the Stark family. Peter brought her to stand beside him and his aunt May, who smiled at Y/N and squeezed her hand. Y/N smiled back, but it came out as more of a grimace. They stood just behind Happy, Pepper and Morgan, as Pepper leaned down and set the wreath onto the lake, in the middle it had Tony’s original arc reactor from 2008, with words engraved into it.
‘Proof Tony Stark has a heart’
She found humour in the words but also wondered why anyone had ever thought otherwise. Sure he was a bit egotistical and petty sometimes, and often took to bragging when it came to being one of the smartest people on earth. But if you had known him like I had, she thought to herself, you’d know that he was one of the most caring people ever.
She watched as it floated away down through the calm river, eventually turning into a speck in the distant, covered by trees and the glistening light reflected off the water. Y/N gulped harshly as she tried to keep her tears in, not trying to break the strong personality she had set in stone for the past five years, but nonetheless couldn’t help a few of them slip from her eyes.
When the funeral had ended Y/N went to greet the others that had attended, wearing her best fake smile as people commented on how sorry they were for her loss and she did the same for them. She had gotten many embraces from people she did and didn’t know, and shared small laughs and memories with them.
After Y/N got tired of talking to everyone she tapped Peter, who had stayed by her side through the whole day, and told him she was going to get a drink of water. Peter had insisted on coming and held her hand as they walked away from the crowd and to the cute lakeside cottage, Y/N had considered home for so many years. On the small bench beside the door sat Happy with little Morgan in his lap, who sprung off and ran towards the girl with a bright smile on her face.
“Y/N! Y/N!” Morgan chanted happily as she ran closer, arms stretched out. Y/N smiled genuinely at the young girl and crouched down, picked her up as she ran into her chest and resting her on her hip. She brushed her nose against her soft cheek and placed a kiss upon it.
“Hi, baby,” Y/N said as she bounced Morgan. Peter looked at Morgan with a grin as well, since it was honestly astounding how similar she was to her father. Morgan giggled and played with Y/N’s hair as they had a small conversation and Peter could only watch on in awe. Then Y/N turned Morgan to face Peter. “You remember who this is, don’t you? It’s uncle Peter!” Y/N said, looking at Morgan and then smiling up at Peter, who felt like he was about to cry again just hearing those words.
“Spidey! Spidey!” Morgan screeched happily as she leaned over and made grabbing hands towards Peter, asking him to pick her up. Peter smiled widely before taking her from Y/N’s grip and holding her on his own hip now.
“Hey there, nice to finally meet you,” he said as he rocked slightly and Morgan placed her head on his shoulder, wrapping her small arms around his neck. Peter felt like he might explode from cuteness overload.
“Yeah. Daddy and Y/N says that-that you is the bestest,” she says as she played with the collar of Peter’s shirt. “You’re my favourite superhero! But after daddy.” She says as she smiled up at him. Peter raises his eyebrows and nods, letting out a laugh as he continued to talk with her. Soon the girl was falling asleep on Peter’s shoulder and the two walked inside to put her down for a nap.
Peter gently placed her down on her bed as he put a few stuffed animals by her side and covered her with the pink, fluffy blanket at the end of the bed. He kissed her forehead as Y/N went to place another on her cheek.
“Love you 3000,” she mumbled in her half-asleep state, and Y/N smiled, feeling tears brimming in her eyes as she replied.
“Love you infinity,” she says as she kissed her head. Morgan smiled in her sleepy state as the two stood up and exited the room, closing the door as quietly as they could to not stir her. Peter pulled Y/N into a hug, rocking them from side to side as he felt her tears start to make his shirt wet, but he didn’t seem to care. He kissed her temple and gently grabbed her chin, guiding her to look up at him as he smiled down at her.
“You know, I love you infinity,” he mumbled as he leaned down to brush against her lips. She laughed, his presence making her feel so much better since he really was her saviour. She shook her head, scoffing.
“You’re such a dork, Parker,” she said as she looked up at him, smiling for what felt like the first time in forever. She didn’t know how he had that effect on her, but then again she wasn’t complaining. God knows she needs a bit of relief. “I love you infinity too,” she replied after leaving him hanging for a while, and she stood up on her toes to press her lips to his, the kiss soft and short but still full of emotion.
As they broke apart, he pressed another kiss on her forehead and pulled her into his embrace. “You know what would make you feel better?” He said into her ear, which she replied with a ‘hm?’, asking for him to continue. “If we went home and binge-watched that Shane Dawson conspiracy theory video you told me about the other day.” Y/N scrunched up her eyebrows and looked up at him, a soft laugh passing her lips.
“Right now? Are you serious?” she said, shaking her head as she jokingly pushed his chest. He also chuckled a bit.
“What?” He asked, taking her hand and backing down the hallway. “C’mon, Y/N, you know how long I’ve waited for this video! You can’t just tease me with it!” Y/N raised her eyebrow as she watched Peter bounce a bit, begging her with his adorable brown puppy eyes to come with him.
“Well, you know what? There’s actually two, and they’re an hour and a half each” she whispered, causing Peter to groan and throw his head back. As he looked back up he was smirking, his tongue swiping over his teeth as he looked at her.
“You’re gonna be the death of me,” he whispered as he tugged on her hand and pulled her away, Y/N following a giggling mess as he brought her to Aunt May’s car and drove them back home, both excitedly discussing different videos and movies and other events that Peter had missed while he was gone.
Even though it meant sacrificing a lot, and even though she was still devastated about Tony and Nat’s death, Y/N felt as if everything would be okay as she lied on Peter’s chest, his strong arms wrapped securely around her as they watched the movie long conspiracy videos together. They exchanged small kisses and soft words, and even feeding popcorn to each other cause they were that grossly sweet kind of couple. And Y/N had finally found her hope.
