Summary
It was difficult to explain to strangers who they were to each other; "best friends" and "coworkers" didn't quite cut it, "we used to date" implied something much different than their real relationship now, "life partner" sounded so official and stuffy, "soulmate" sounded schmoopy, and anything like "partner" or "girlfriend" made it sound like they were actually dating now.
It was so much easier to just say, "this is my Abby," or "this is my Tim." -

Summary
Cramming five very different people into a crew together requires some organization, they realize after a while. Someone will need to be in charge of paying the bills for headquarters, someone will need to be on the lookout for new clients, someone will need to stock the fridge and the first aid kits, and so many other little things none of them have had to worry about since they worked by themselves.
Working together, as it turns out, also necessitates ground rules being laid out, and each of them have their own rules for working together peacefully. Whether they are always followed or not is an entirely separate matter.

Summary
As he felt the man touching his arm even harder and more frequently, his spidey sense started screaming at him, and he couldn't ignore it anymore. What if this wasn't really happening by accident? Still, every time Peter listened to his senses and scooted a bit on his seat to get closer to the window, the man would casually ask him something else, while getting closer to the boy again. This made Peter so confused. Why was the man still making small talk? Did he miss a social cue again?
----------
In which Peter has a bad experience with a man at the bus, meets a nice woman and is comforted by Tony after a meltdown.(This is part of a series, but can be read on its own)

He could still taste the spicy mayonnaise from the sandwich he had at lunch, he couldn't avoid the lights sharply reflecting on the tools, and his clothes seemed to get itchier by the second, it was all too much, too much, too much.

Prompt by Msdolittle! (check author notes for full prompt!)

"What do you mean I should get him into a facility?" Tony's voice boomed, strong as thunder.
"C'mon, you know what I mean, I can't be the only one who has noticed. He's clearly a-" Steve trailed off, thinking of his next words.

Summary
The school bathroom was not an ideal place to have a meltdown in, but at least it gave him some of the privacy he needed. Peter could feel the meltdown building up and soon he wouldn't be able to hold it all inside, he would explode. The boy sat on the ground, rocking his body back and forth trying to soothe himself as his hands started hitting on his thighs with more and more force, but the sound of the door opening made him hold his breath.
"Shit. Hey Pen- uh Parker, you okay?" asked a familiar voice.
When Peter looked up and saw no one other than Flash looking down at him, his heart sank.
or
Peter has a meltdown in school and help comes from an unexpected source. (Warnings at the end of author's note!)Series

Summary
The loud laughter made Peter bring his shoulders up to his ears, desperately trying to add another layer of protection over his ear defenders, growing frustrated when it didn’t work. When he brought one of his hands up to his hair, pulling on it, the group laughed again, making more insensitive comments about the situation. Before Flash could even react to what was happening, Ryan reached his foot towards Peter, lightly pushing the boy’s torso against the wall, forcibly stopping his rocking, and he laughed as the boy cried harder, hitting his head on the wall to replace the sensation.
or
Peter has a meltdown in school, and his bullies still won’t leave him alone. Thankfully he has great friends and an amazing father-figure.

Summary
If Izuku was being honest, he just wanted to stay in his room all day under his weighted blanket watching his favorite show over and over again.
(He hated that he had to act human right now. He hated he couldn’t scream and cry because the lights in the elevator are so fucking loud. For fucks sake why are the lights so loud.)
Izuku took in a deep breath and left the elevator. The only good thing about him having to stop his run early was the mostly empty common room before him.
(Izuku ignored the feeling of wrong wrong wrong in the back of his head. He was breaking his schedule. He was doing it wrong. He wasn’t where he was supposed to be.)

He felt like a time bomb, ticking away, the explosion coming any minute. He felt as if someone were tinkering away at his wires, one wrong move ending in a disaster.
A heavy, unwanted hand on his shoulder is what sent him.
It was like a shockwave, an explosive hiding itself in what seemed to be so innocent.
