Alright y’all, here’s my Ephemeron playlist.

Caveat: spoilers? Potentially? As in, you may be able to guess what direction the story’s going if you look at the songs, as they are in roughly chronological order. HOWEVER, this playlist is not necessarily finished, nor do I have a perfectly concrete idea of where the fic is going anyway; for that reason, and because the songs aren’t all necessarily a perfect analogy for what’s happening in the story, don’t assume too much from this playlist about the plot of the story.

All that said; I hope you enjoy this playlist. I spent a lot of time (read: way too much time) arranging it, and I hope you’ll have as much fun listening to it as I’ve had making it and listening to it in the past couple weeks. More revisions likely to come.

"Being around Ned, Peter's reminded how out of place he is. For Ned, the second ever appearance of aliens over Manhattan is the stuff of excited hallway chatter, of where were you when—? Ned’s world wasn’t blown apart and stitched back together. Because Ned doesn’t remember. No one does, except the ones who were there, who fought."

AKA, "Tony's relationship with Peter may be unconventional, but they’re unconventional people who have had some pretty fucking unconventional experiences."

In which Tony can't stop touching Peter to make sure he's real, and Peter dreams of being in Tony's arms and not disappearing.
