@MicraL as you know, I read your new story, and I like it.
I didn't really expect it to be a Marvel/COD crossover.
And for Johnathan Irons raising Peter? I do hope Gaea would atone for that mistake. I do like it though, since it shows that even beings, like Gaea, are not perfect. They make mistakes as well. The best that they can do is atone for it without expecting people to forgive them.
Think of it like the X-Men protecting Earth, but people still treat them like crap, no matter how hard they try.
And Peter forgiving Gaea? I would agree for it to be taken slowly before he does so.
