    A Beautiful and Terrible Thing by FalconLux

    Summary

    Peter Parker is nothing. He used to be something, mean something, and then he fucked up. He had everything, the whole world; two best friends, his Aunt May, and even a new budding father-like figure in Tony Stark. Now, though? He had nothing.

    No more late night lab visits with Mr. Stark, hacking into government websites and building new stupid nanotech bots that vacuum the floor only if you beg it and sound like a certain Captain, or robots that twisted in all angles like infinity cubes to play ultimate twister with. No more study sessions with MJ, listening to old punk rock bands and doodling in the margins. No more lego building with Ned, building and taking apart and building that Lego Death Star dozens of times in his bedroom.

    And, worst of all, no Aunt May to wake him up on his bad days with a worried frown on her lips and a fresh hot chocolate in her hands to warm him.

    OR

    Peter Parker ends up in Gotham, an alternative universe, with soulmates and weird smells.

    OR

    Peter is thrown into an omegaverse. He hates it. Start scene.

    OR

    Angst. Lots of it, good angst, and lots of healing and happy moments. Suffering to be saved. Soulmates. Hiding. Fun!

    Summary

    The cold muzzle of his blaster pressed firmly against the back of the woman’s skull.

    “Don’t move.” he said, his voice flat and unyielding through the modulator.

    The room stilled.

    Grogu started making happy noises, his stubby arms stretching out toward Din, the forgotten meal slipping entirely from his attention. “Buuh,” he grunted, repeating it over and over, eyes bright.

    “Buir?” the woman’s voice was soft but measured, a question aimed at Grogu. The child’s gaze flicked to her, then back to Din, repeating the sound with a nod of his wrinkled head.
    She let out a long sigh, the motion slight, almost imperceptible against the muzzle. Her accent carried the rhythm and cadence of Core Worlds— It struck him as entirely out of place here.

    He didn’t like her speaking Mando’a.

    Din pressed the cold metal harder against the back of her skull, testing her resolve. She said nothing for a few heartbeats.

    Then, finally, she spoke.

    “So… you’re the reason my child is wearing chainmail.”
