-
its been 21 days since the snap, and tony & nebula just got to the compound - courtesy of carol danvers.
while tony in a wheelchair, they're currently looking through the filed people that got snapped.
tony was looking down while sitting in his wheelchair, until a certain name was said causing him to snap his gaze upwards.
"who's peter parker?" tony heard bruce say.
rhodey glanced sadly at tony, who was on the verge of tears just by looking at the picture on the hologram screen.
"i dont know.." nat gazed through his files, "his files are almost double the size of most of ours" she continued, furrowing her brows.
she and bruce then had their eyes wide when they read a certain detail in the file,
adopted by tony stark on december 25th of 2017.
tony remembered spoiling the heck out of peter on christmas. he gave him lots of gifts, even if peter was shy to take it all, one gift was the most special to both of them.
he simply gave peter an unlabeled file, and asked for him to open and read it. when he did, peter's eyes glistened with tears as tony watched him nervously.
tony had gifted him adoption papers, and he couldn't he any happier.
"thank you, ..dad." peter whispered as he hugged his father figure, sobbing in his chest. tony wrapped his arms around the boy and held him tight,
"merry christmas, peter benjamin parker-stark."
tony hadn't realized he was crying until he saw rhodey shaking him back to reality.
"tones? you okay?" rhodey warily asked, looking at his bestfriend.
"you have an adopted son?" steve asked, surprised.
the rest of the team was gaping at him.
"just son." rhodey corrected steve, "they were so similar, yet so different at the same time."
"he was ridiculously smart. like, probably smarter than me and bruce. he's so selfless too! putting others' needs before his. he's also the purest, kindest, person i know. he gets bullied, but told me to not hurt his bully when i found out. he said that he only does that because he has problems at home and puts it all out on peter. he's too good for this world. he deserves the world. heck, he's my world. he helped me with everything and believed in me when i didnt. yet, i failed him." tony sobbed.
"tony its not your fau-" rhodey tried protesting against that fact, but tony continued and ignored him. "i failed him. i shouldn't have let him go with me in titan. i could've been better. i should've been better." he rubbed his nose bridge, waterfalls of tears still spilling out his eyes.
"what do you mean he went with yo-"
"he's spiderman." he blurted out. causing the rouge avengers to have shock, horror, and surprise on their faces.
"and before you scold me for taking him to an avengers fight; one, no, he wasn't spiderman because of me. he was spiderman months before i knew him. two, i only brought him to web you guys up so it'd be easier to catch you but you apparently went too hard on him so he didnt keep his distance."
they were silent for a few seconds when tony spoke up again, voice still raspy and weak.
"did you know he felt it coming? yeah. he has this sixth sense for danger, and he literally felt his body turn to dust while begging me to not let him go. he kept repeating 'i dont wanna go' as he clung onto me and even said fucking 'sorry'! he apologized for dying because i once told him that it'd be on me if he died. and now, he's gone because it's all my fault!" tony exclaimed, on the egde of hyperventilating.
"tony, just breathe." rhodey said, as he helped tony control his uneven breathing.
"look, it's not your fault, okay?" rhodey tried telling him, but tony's face was in his hands as he broke down into sobs.
"dont worry, tony. we'll get him back." steve comfortly to tony.
"whatever it takes."
