Peter Parker // Whump

Routine

Thank you ExploringWonders for the idea hope you like it :)

Tony had a routine, not a traditional one that helped someone through there day. But a routine that helped keep a particularly reckless kid alive.

It started when Peter moved into the tower, he would come home from patrol and hop in the elevator, almost always with an injury. Using himself as a human shield seemed to be his favorite past time. He always ended up fine because Tony was always conveniently waiting for the elevator and able to rush him to med bay. He would sit on a bench out side the elevator every time Friday alerted him to Peters presence.

He used to know what trouble peter got himself into, but ever since the kid hacked Friday and Karen he hasn't gotten any information. His control over the situation slipped away and a few more grey hairs appeared. Friday always apologized saying that she asked Peter to tell Tony about his latest injury, but peter always refused.

The interactions were always recorded by Friday, as some were quite hilarious, while others were kept for when Tony wanted peter to stay in. He would show him the clips of the elevator door opened and peter passed out on the inside. He would ask peter, "do you want this to happen again? I have a bad feeling and you know my bad feelings are right." Peter would simply sigh, roll his eyes, and set to work on a new project.

Here are a few of the times Tony was waiting outside the elevator.

One:

It was 12:34 at night and peter was supposed to have been home over a half hour ago. So Tony took his usual seat on the bench besides the elevator. He worked on his Stark pad, signing emails that he was supposed to have signed days ago.

The elevator dinged and he stood up, placing his Stark pad in its holder on the wall. He made a show of looking like he just walked over to the elevator and when the doors opened, out fell a deathly pale, bleeding Peter.

"What was it this time kiddo?" He asked helping peter to the wheel chair he always kept in the corner. Just in case.

"A kid and his dad were being mugged by a group of drunk old men. I intervened of course and the oldest one turned and stabbed me. I was surprised, for an old man he was pretty strong. So I swung after them as the drove away and found out that they were working for hydra. Weird right, I guess they couldn't get anymore young soldiers like Uncle Bucky so they went for the oldies"

"How old were they pete? My age" Tony asked making jokes, he knew peter liked to mask pain with humor.

"Noo, I would never call you old Mr.Stark. Just matured"

"Yet you still call me Mr Stark like I'm some old teacher. Anyway what happened with the men and hydra?"

"Oh right, best part" peter paused to move himself to a bed with Tony's help. Adjusting his body so Bruce could see the stab wound. "So I followed them right, and when I figured it out I still had Nicks phone number from when I ghosted him. So I called him and he sent some men to take care of it" he hissed a breath in as Bruce inserted an IV.

"Wow, hell of a night kid. Now get some sleep I'll force Steve to make blueberry pancakes in the morning"

"Yay!"

Two:

As usual the kid was at least two hours past curfew, Tony knew what that meant, so as soon as he got a notification saying Peter entered the building he made his way to the elevator, waiting around the corner this time as he heard the elevator ding before he got there. He walked around and his jaw actually hit the floor with what he saw. He couldn't contain himself and started laughing, he laughed so hard tears started streaming down his face.

"It's not funny Mr Tony, Clint decides to start the prank battle tonight and told me there was a robbery down town. He covered me in molasses and glitter. Do you know how sticky molasses is? I can feel it clogging my pores already. Stop laughing God, you're going to give yourself an air embolism."

"I would congratulate you on learning some medical terms from Bruce but part of me can't take you serious and the other part realizes you only know all this because it's happened to you. Go shower before the bees get you"

"Ah shit the BEEESSSSS" peter screamed running away.

A faint, "language son" was heard from the living room.

Tony just continued to laugh and thanked Loki that he wasn't hurt tonight.

Three:

Tony was where he always ended up, and heard the ding of the elevator that he realized brought him a mystery every night. It was rare that it was simply just peter, no injury or prank.

When the doors slid open Tony thought tonight was one of the rare nights and was ready to work on peter suit with him when he heard peter sniffle.

"Kid you ok?" He asked walking towards him.

"No" he cried hugging Tony.

"What happened kiddo, talk to me" he pleaded sitting down on the bench with peter still hugging him.

"MJ broke up with me, she said were better as friends and I agree it just hurts"

"Awe, it's ok pete you'll find someone. It took me many years to find Pepper, but the wait was worth it"

"Ok, can we get ice cream though. It would make me feel better, and can we watch a movie?"

"Sure kiddo" he replied standing up and taking Peters back pack. They walked towards the living room.

"And can we invite Loki, I haven't seen him in so long"

"Now you're pushing it"

"Please" Peter looked at Tony, and of course tony gave in.

"Ugh, ok but you're not building another snow man inside"

"Aweee ok fine, Loki!" He called knowing the God would appear, and he did with a green cloud he was there, snowballs already in his hands.

"Do you wanna build a snow mannnnn"

"YES, But tony said no snowmen"

"Alright, then let's make a snowwoman." He laughed as peter followed him to the gym where they build the last snowman.

Tony just rolled his eyes and went back down to the lab.
