Summary
Dying on the roof of a building shouldn't be as peaceful as it is. That's what Peter Parker thinks as he bleeds out anyway. What he really doesn't expect is to wake up ten years in the past, a little kid once again. All he can think about is changing future events. All the deaths he was forced to live through and the ones he was forced to watch. He's going to do whatever it takes not to let any of that happen.

Summary
Peter just wants someone to acknowledge his existence, to look him in the eye and say "Peter Parker exists". So when he tries to tell his friends, team red, his name, its not surprising when it all goes to shit. Damn his Parker luck and damn Doctor Strange.
Though maybe getting sent to another universe isn't all bad, maybe he can build a new life for himself. One with his real name and this cute guy that visits the bar he works at

Summary
The Avengers embark on a dangerous mission that takes a devastating turn—Steve Rogers is killed in action. His body is never recovered, leaving his team to mourn and move on, though some wounds never truly heal. No one feels the loss more than Bucky Barnes, who not only lost his best friend but the man he secretly loved.
6 years later, during an unexpected call for help, Bucky sees a ghost—Steve Rogers, alive and well. But he’s not the same. He’s living a new life, and a woman by his side. The catch? Steve remembers everything. He knows who he is, what he left behind, and that he chose not to come back.
Rage, heartbreak, and years of unresolved feelings rise to the surface as Bucky demands answers. Why did Steve let them believe he was dead? And more importantly, why did he let Bucky suffer alone?

Summary
“Wait kid!” And in that moment it came to him, “What if, what if we don’t forget you? What if we send you away?” Strange desperately called out.
“Mr.Strange… ” Peter had a sympathetic look in his eyes and Strange hated it. It wasn’t his life that was being destroyed, so why was Peter looking at him like the victim.
“Listen, I can send you somewhere there is no Peter Parker. There are an infinite number of universes, I can find one.” Strange said, more to himself than to Peter. And he knew this was dark magic, he knew he shouldn’t, but he didn’t care.
“I’ll send you there. Until I can fix this. Until I can bring you back.”
Or: Dr. Strange sends Peter to an alt universe where there are no Avengers, but they do have a thing called a Justice League. And sure Peter is homeless, but that doesn't stop him from being Spider-Man.

Summary
“Dick…”
Right. He needed to focus.
“Little Wing?” Dick’s tone lost the harshness to it, as if sensing that Jason was teetering on the edge. He could always tell when Jason needed the grounding. He always knew. Could feel it from a mile away.
“Dick, I think…I think you have a son.”He closed his eyes, surrendering to the darkness. He forced his heartbeat to slow, and an eerie calmness washed over his thoughts. The last image that flickered through his mind was Aunt May’s lifeless eyes.
Peter hoped he wouldn’t wake up again.
