EXISTANCE!

An AU where Kogoro has to defeat the BO instead because Shinichi is now just a kid a with amnesia and high observational skills (haha good luck old man). This Conan is more reserved and reluctant to see gore and crime scenes because his head trauma was one of his last few memories. I want to give some focus on the adults and their perspectives in this story, just so they can take on a more protective role for their kids (cause man you gotta understand that letting a bunch of teens run around crime scenes is gonna traumatize them).

Let the parents be a bit more competent/proactive. 

I also want to touch on some parallels between Kogoro and Shinichi, because the former (like Shinichi) used to believe anything could be brought to justice with enough effort, but fell into a cycle of self-doubt and disillusionment, in addition to other life problems like divorce/alcoholism. 

I think Eri should have a spotlight too. She’s a lawyer and a woman living in a society that allows rapists and corrupt politicians to get away with a light punishment. She herself was almost stripped down and tased by kidnappers who wanted to humiliate her for arresting them. She is that bridge between catching the criminal and actually bringing justice to the victim. She should get more interactions with Shinichi and get to discuss ethics, especially since Shinichi values all life despite the crime. 

Let there be some domesticity. Let Kogoro see that past Shinichi’s fame and arrogant persona, he’s ultimately a thoughtful kid who cares about strangers getting a fair judgement. Sure, Kogoro’s seen Shinichi grow up before, but a lot of those memories were overshadowed by annoyance and jealousy, and he didn't notice the child-like traits. Now that he gets to see 7-yr-old Shinichi again, he sees how the latter doesn’t casually talk about murders anymore and seems so much more vulnerable. Yet, it’s still the same Shinichi, and Kogoro gets to see this softer side. 

[(I’ll add more stuff for bonding between the other parents and characters later - Heizo, Ginzo, Ran, etc.) 

but the funniest part of this is not that they were debating the exile of a man who has been dead for over 500 years.

Anyway Ravenna couldn't refuse the pope and handed Dante's casket over to Florence. Another part of Catholic law is that opening someone's casket is desecration and a one way ticket straight to hell. So Florence was skeptical that Ravenna send them Dante and decided to do the unthinkable and opened his casket. It was empty, but Florence couldn't say so because if they called out Ravenna they'd have to admit to desecrating the corpse of their so called beloved poet. So they just pretended it didn't happen till Dante's bones were found behind a wall a couple hundred years later and again interned in a crypt in Ravenna.

Also a friend of Dante had his original grave in Ravenna inscribed with the text:

parvi Florentia mater amoris

Translation:

So like she gets the recordings and realizes Yao and Ilyukina are dead before he wakes up so he’s got no pilot, no engineer, and no memories.

And then you also have to remember that the EXISTENCE of these recordings and the fact they were accompanied by the Taumoeba means that an amnesticized Grace somehow managed to save earth without a pilot or engineer and shoddy memory that only vaguely gives him enough to work with as he works.

(the hand on wol’s head after estinien drops them off?? okay??)

Plus this little exchange that I love so dearly:

Percy: I know we don't always agree, and I know that I can be unkind but... you know you're family, right? 

Grog: I don't know much, but I do know that. 

and the building makes it very clear that AIs were immune to the spell.

Tony: “FRIDAY, have you been socializing with young geniuses behind my back?…You’re job hunting, is that it?”

FRIDAY: “Trust me, boss. He can’t afford me.”

Peter: “It’s true. It’s extremely, extremely true…

-WAIT.

What if after Friday realized that Tony doesn’t remember Peter, she kept bringing him up to see if he will remember him, then just to keep him in Tony’s life…?

“…Boss, that Peter Parker seemed like a good fit for your internship program. Why not consider him?”

“That internship’s for high school students.”

“You have one for college students as well.”

“That’s pretty tough to get into. You really think that kid could handle it?”

Imagine Tony, newly retired, feeling his age more because of his AI child bullying him into hiring a broke college student than due to post-snap recovery.

Long-suffering Bot Dad Tony dealing with FRIDAY who keeps sending him files on Peter's genius abilities at 2:23 in the goddamn morning, to the the point where a horrible feeling creeps into his gut...

Tony, horrified: FRI, be honest with me...is this...have you got a crush? Is that what this is?

FRIDAY, doubly horrified, trying to bleach her memory drives, realizes there's only one (1) photo of Peter Parker left in her drives, in a bunch of data she recovered from JARVIS' old drives in The VISION (insert hand-wavy science tag); the one at the stark expo where he's wearing an Iron-man helmet and repulsor gloves...

And that's where Tony rabbit holes into solving the Peter Parker mystery, by first, trying to, most unsuccessfully, hire him as his intern...

BUT WAIT

If bots aren't affected then that means DUM-E, U, BUTTERFINGERS too remember Peter!

every three months he'll post and in the author's note there's some shit like "sorry this took a while, i got shot seven times :/" or "i know it's been a minute, i literally got hit by a bus and then stabbed in the leg, but i'm all good!" or sometimes ned would log in and post with a note "hey i'm a friend posting on the author's behalf, they're healing from severe hypothermia but promised an update, so here it is!"

and the fic just gets increasingly more popular for the author notes alone. a good handful of the comments are something along the lines of "i'm not even in the star wars fandom, i'm just here to see if the author is good" or "every update i cheer for another day the author gets to live at this point"

and any reader who is a native new yorker kind of pieces together that holy shit the author might be spider-man because the timeline adds up, and they just fully embrace it. spider-man will stop a robbery and the guy behind the counter will ask when the next chapter will be up. spider-man returns a stolen backpack to a girl and she'll tell him that he "really got poe's voice down so well, it's really impressive."

ned thinks it is hilarious. mj finds out about the fic from twitter, to peter's absolute horror, and changes peter's contact name to "friendly neighborhood ao3 author". but the worst thing to happen is after an avengers battle where peter took a pretty big hit and ends up in med-bay. and during a press conference, when someone asks how spider-man is healing, tony just drops "spidey won't be down for too long. the star wars fic will be updated within the week, probably."
