    Summary

    “Why are you making such a big deal over this?!” Peter all but growls, wishing he hadn't agreed to be trapped in such a small space with Tony.

    “Because kid, I made a promise! So it would be in your best interest to listen to what I have to say."

    “You mean your best interest.”

    Tony slams on the breaks, startling Peter. Cars honk behind him, but their complaints go unnoticed as he swerves to the side of the road, turning his head and shouting “What has gotten into you Peter?!”

    “What do you care?” Peter asks, Anger simmering and on the verge of exploding.

    “I care a lot. Now ‘fess up kiddo, or do I have to call May?”

    The car gets quiet, the low rumble of the vehicle mixing with the labored breaths of its occupants. Tony is glaring at Peter, who reaches for the door handle.

    “Go right ahead, won’t help anyway. Calling a dead person won't magically get them to answer.”

    Summary

    -
    At sixteen years old, Tommy knew so many things.

    He knew that people were predictable and selfish. He knew not to trust, not to take, and not to get comfortable for too long. He knew that the concept of family was as fake as the highlights in his last foster mother's hair.

    Tommy had known for years that life was painful and had no extra love for some ratty foster kid like him. He knew that it was him and his copy of The Odyssey against the whole world. He knew that he only had to survive long enough to make it to his eighteenth birthday before he could escape.

    But when Tommy ends up fostered in the Watson household completely by chance, he finds that maybe he never knew anything in the first place.
    //
    or, the one in which Tommy Innit has never really experienced love, family, or belonging, and is suddenly surrounded by it all at once.
