Sea Of The Mind

Disclaimer as usual: these are selected from stories which I have been reading this week: either recently updated or newly published generally. My taste may not be your taste, but these are a few of the ones that I have enjoyed.

Work in Progress / Series

in technicolor by @deniigi [Marvel]

Brett's encounters with Team Red/vigilantes and their weird fucking way of helping.

Sea-Spider by @the-reverse-mermaid [Marvel]

“Tell me I’m not the only one seeing this,” Tony prompts, gesturing to their catch. It’s a kid. A teenager, by the looks of him, no more than 15 or 16, with curling brown hair plastered over his forehead and eyes. He lays there prone on his side, covered in cuts- some shallow, some deep, all of them most likely caused by the barbs on the fishnet. Tony can just make out blood matted on the back of his head- he probably hit it on the side of the boat and got himself knocked out. Clinging to his torso is a soaked, faded t-shirt and below that… ...below that, his lower body is a tail. A full-on fish tail.

A Privilege to Love You by @irondadbxtch​ [Marvel]

Follow Peter through his first year as a single teenage father, with Tony by his side every step of the way.

Mnemosyne by @missmungoe [One Piece]

She doesn’t remember her life before the human market, or before Amazon Lily. The only clues she has is her name, and the silver anchor around her neck. And that her daughter has red hair.

One-Shot

Piece Out by @blondsak & @whumphoarder [Marvel]

In which Peter makes a truly horrendous pie, Tony’s teasing goes a little too far, and someone may or may not cough up blood.

Pick a place to rest your head by bluesweatshirt

Just a note on selection criteria: basically it’s stories which are new/have been updated in the last week or so and that I’ve read and enjoyed. Keeping it simple. I’ve also added which fandom the story is from because there was finally some variation this week...

Works In Progress / Series

The Humbling River by mysterycyclone [Marvel]

Peter’s been distant lately. Edgy. Angry. On his best days, he moves through his life in a vague daze, skipping meals and sleeping. On his worst, he’s hit with fits of anger that border on unthinking rage. Monday afternoon, he breaks Flash Thompson’s hand. Wednesday evening, he goes missing. That night, the first headless corpse appears in Queens.

Under The Advent Of Stars by GigiDoyle [Marvel]

After the events of Avengers: Endgame, Tony Stark wakes up in 1990 in the body of his 20 year old self. He is not okay with that.

Serenity by JolinarJackson [Marvel/Firefly]

In the distant future, humankind has spread its territory throughout the galaxy, inhabiting several terraformed planets and moons. The only thing tying them all together are cargo spaceships, carrying supplies along intergalactic routes. One of those ships is commandeered by Tony Stark, who finds himself more often than not accepting jobs of the not-so-legal sort to feed himself and his small crew while trying to stay off the radar of the legal enforcement agency SHIELD. However, when they decide to pick up passengers to make ends meet, the crew quickly finds what was supposed to be a quiet journey turning into a run for their lives, as they find out that one of their passengers is harboring a secret SHIELD desperately wants to get their hands on.

Pigeon and Crow by deniigiq [Marvel]

Peter puffed himself up and then stood up suddenly. Johnny grabbed his hand and pulled him down so that he crash-landed all over his lap. He pulled the coat over the both of them like a tent. Peter twisted around and tried to find Johnny’s face in the dark. “You’re my friend?” Johnny asked above him. Peter held his breath. “Only if you want me to be,” he said.

Bind Me to the Tide by missmungoe [One Piece]

She was thirteen the day it happened, old enough to know what a soul-bond was, but not to fully understand what it meant, to bind two souls so thoroughly as the Fates were said to do. Every new thread they measured was tied to another; a knot that ensured their paths would cross, somewhere along the line of their lives. It was the stuff of romances. Or it would have been, if it hadn’t been for an unfortunate side-effect. For as long as Makino could remember, she’d been feeling the pain of another as her own.

Co-Pilot by FerretShark [Marvel]

Work in Progress / Series

A Peter Parker Problem by @spagbol99

Peter comes back to find May has a husband and a kid. A new family he has to fit into. But he has done it before, he can do it again. When things at home take a turn for the worse, Peter decides that he'll handle it himself. He is Spider-man. He's been to space and fought aliens. He can get through anything. After all, if May is happy, he is happy, right? Right?

Blood & Iron by AliciaMirza

His uncle’s fascination with family trees and learning about fourth cousins was not something that Peter ever shared, but he decided that continuing it was something his uncle would love to see him do. What started out as a simple genealogical DNA test resulted in a series of discoveries changing his entire life.

Comfortember 2020 Series by @skeeter-110

A series of one-shots based on the Comfortember prompts.

One-Shot

Death by Waffles by @whumphoarder

When Tony decides to adopt a cat for Morgan, Peter is almost more excited about it than the six-year-old. He just failed to mention one minor issue before coming to visit at the lake house for the weekend.

More Than Okay by Icylightning

Peter cleared his throat "Mr Stark I...". Tony raised a warning finger "Not. A. Word. Kid". Peter sealed his lips shaking lightly. Steve noticed this and wrapped an arm around the boy and frowned at his friend "Tony you're scaring him" he said protectively
