Author's note: Hey guys! I don't know if I am allowed this (as said by ), since it is only an author's note but I'm willing to take a risk. I'll start a sneak peek of the next chapter here as well which will be uploaded today itself.
I know for a fact that FanFiction is not the only platform in which somebody can read stories on. I am willing to spread across multiple platforms for those who don't like FanFiction as much. So that said, I will be uploading on FanFiction first. It will be my first priority as I started this account before any other platforms. I am willing to use AO3 (which is ), wattpad, inkitt, quotev, etc. Heck, I am willing to go as far as to use Instagram for updates, so that means that I will be like 'new chapter coming soon, go check it out on _ (whatever website)'. Is it unnecessary? I don't know, you guys tell me. Like I have said before, I am new to FanFiction, so I don't know what exactly goes down here.
On a completely different note, I have seen other people do this and I feel like I should take the time out to review your guyses reviews. Does that make sense? I feel like I should respond to them. No, I won't be able to respond to all of them, but I will for the more recent ones so yeah. Thank you guys for the reviews, they really keep me going as an amateur 'author'. I will definitely be getting to the older ones but I thought I'd start with newer ones first. So yeah:
1. Melancholy's Sunshine – Hey! How are you? Yes Pepper might want to keep Peter from Tony, but in my perspective, she feels as if Peter is affecting Tony's behaviour and attitude, even though he is still healing, I want it to seem as if Peter is speeding up that process and opening himself up more. So yeah, it's definitely more than a mentor/mentee relationship and definitely more than legal guardian/legal son kind of thing.
2. EmilyAnnMcGarrett-Winchester - Hello! I've seen several reviews that are written by you and I just want to say thank you for your kind words and (in my view) spot-on opinions. Yes Flash is definitely a putz, no questions asked. Thank you for complimenting my writing. It is absolutely awesome to know that people acknowledge the style of writing along with the content in it. I mean everyone has a different 'voice' and portraying it, yet, still keeping the original plot or story line is quite a challenge. So thank you for that Emily.
3. CTRI - Hi! How are you? Yes it was quite a big jump up to the ceiling of the gym, if that is what you meant. True, suing is not the always the answer, you are definitely correct by our standards but for Tony, I feel like he would be that type of person, who has so much money and charisma that threatening to sue somebody along with showing up in his Iron Man suit with his repulsors would probably be his way of showing that he cares, I suppose. Woo, that was long sentence. So conclude it, yes suing is not always the answer but for Tony Stark, I suppose it is. :)
4. Guest - Hi! How are you? Flash will definitely get what is coming for him when he sees Peter as Spidey. He hasn't seen it yet, but maybe it will be one of the future chapters *hint hint*. I think that Peter would never misuse his powers to hurt somebody on purpose for personal reasons, but he will definitely have show off a bit, I mean after all the crap that Flash has pulled on Peter, he kinda deserves that. Thank you for reviewing!
5. Oja – Lets start by acknowledging that you have a really cool name. If that is your real name, you are on lucky person. I mean, has anybody heard of the name 'Oja', I hadn't till I read your review and I was like, damn this girl has a really cool name. The Rogues didn't do anything to Peter, but like I said in of the chapters, Pepper was slightly 'miffed' about their sudden appearance. So she didn't let them go that easily. Just wanted to clear that up. Thank you for reviewing and yes, I will most definitely be continuing this story. I'm very attached to it y'know? :)
6. DESPERATE FAN – Hey dude (you might be a girl, if you are, sorry). What's up? Yes indeed, GO PETER! It's pretty cool that he can be himself now and doesn't have to hold back as much as he did before. I feel like it would have been a relief to him that he doesn't have to go sneaking around anymore and he can truly be a normal teenager. Or as normal as it gets when you are Spider-Man and your Dad is Tony Stark and you're good friends with the Avengers. Yeah, see? Normalcy at its best. Thank you for your time and I know that it seems that that (I know double 'that's) belongs on a formal letter, but really, thank you for the precious time you all take out for reviewing and reading my story.
So that was it. Would you like me to do this more often? Tell me in the reviews. I didn't do them all like I said, but I will get to them very soon.
Sneak peek of the next chapter:
Tony Stark was exhausted. There was no other way to put it but say that he was done. James Buchanan Barnes or Bucky Barnes was no longer in coma and after multiple check-ups he was discharged from the Avengers Tower med-bay. Steve Rogers had been over the moon when his best friend was well and good again, celebrating by throwing a party. Who knew that Cap had a wild side? Tony didn't go though. And to be honest, he thought that El Captain was being inconsiderate. He hadn't seen the withered look that Tony had sent him or the nervousness that he was vividly feeling. It wasn't nostalgia, it was pure fear. Of course, Peter had helped with this and he had come so far, he didn't want to ruin that progress because of a stupid person.
Tony had tried, countless times, to convince himself that it wasn't Bucky who stabbed his father or strangled his mother, snapping her neck. He tried to convince himself, trying to forget the video that was played to him two years ago, he really did. It wasn't Bucky, it was Hydra's doing, not James'. But he couldn't bring himself to do that.
Tony Stark was a cold person, a person who never cried, so when Natasha Romanoff found him curled up on the couch in his room, alone, no Pepper, Rhodey Peter near him, she was surprised. Natasha had known Tony for a long time, almost nine years and in those nine years, she had never seen that man cry. He had a façade of indifference, arrogance and ignorance stuck to his face, almost his whole life. And Natasha couldn't bring herself to walk away from that scene, even when he whimpered at her 'get lost'.
To be continued in chapter 11 of Wait, what? You know the Avengers?
