Peter was sat in a grey room. Before therapy, he didn't even know this room existed in the tower. The room was kinda small and bland. It didn't ever really cheer him up much.

"---- June, how are you today?" Mrs. NP asked.

"I'm not June" Peter muttered, exasperated.

"Im sorry, what name would you like me ---- call you?" She questioned.

"Peter" He said, lightening up a bit.

"---- Peter, how was your day?"

Peter told her all about his day, at least the things he could remember. He woke up in the kitchen for some reason, he was crying. Then he passed out passed out and woke up on the couch where Mr. Stark talked to him. And then he was here. It wasn't much really. Now that he thought about it, shouldn't be Sunday? Why was he in here?

"Wait, I'm sorry isn't Sunday? Why do I have a session today?" Peter asked.

"Peter, it's Wednesday" Mrs. NP corrected.

"Oh"

Peter doesn't remember the rest of the session. He kind of does but it's more like he was watching a tv show and he couldn't remember all of the details. He was so caught up in what day it was.

"Peter, on your way out, please send me Mr. Stark" Mrs. NP asked.

Was Peter in... trouble?

Nevermind, he had to do as she asked. When he ran into Mr. Stark, he sent him in there.

"What cha need?" Tony asked as he entered the room.

"It's about Peter" Mrs. NP started. "I think he, or they, have DID"

"What?"

"Basically, DID is a disorder caused by childhood trauma that makes the child spilt into different states of being or 'alters'" Mrs. NP explained. "Where kids normally form one identity, kids with DID form many other ones to help hold that trauma or to protect them, that's what happened to Peter"

"I'm still confused"

"Peter, June and possibly more are like different people living in his body" Mrs. NP dumbed down. "And when one of the other ones are fronting, Peter can't remember it correctly if at all, same goes of June"

"Okay.. So Peter isn't always Peter?" He asked.

"Basically" Mrs. NP confirmed. "Just try and get to know the others in the system and be patient. I think you should be the one to tell him about his condition, he might take it better"

"Okay"

Tony walked out with more questions than answers. Those didn't matter right now, he'll figure it out later for now he should tell Peter about his diagnosis. After a bit of walking around, he found Peter on the couch in the living room with his hand over his mouth watching the news. He came over to his kid and sat down.

"Hey kid" Tony greeted and Peter hummed in response. "Are you okay?"

"My head feels foggy" He honestly replied from behind his hand.

Tony frowned. "Maybe it's cause of your diagnosis."

Peter looked over in confusion. "What?"

"Mrs. NP said that you have DID." Tony answered.

"What do you mean?" Peter was even more confused, the fogginess didn't help either.

"DID is cause-" Tony began to explain.

Peter, was it Peter? interrupted his adoptive father. "W- I know what that is and I don't have it"

"But that's what Mrs. NP said"

"I don't give a shit, she could be God for all I care and I still wouldn't believe her!" Peter? lashed out.

"Peter, calm down!" Tony tried to calm him. "What is so wrong with you having DID?"

"I'M TRYING TO PROTECT US!" He yells and rushes out of the room.

That wasn't Peter.
