    Summary

    Peter knows Tony doesn’t forget on purpose, and he knows that Tony means well with his concern. But, the man has to deal with the fact Peter isn’t a hero, and is in fact, a vigilante. If all he gets is a broken nose after a long night of patrol, Peter considers himself lucky.
    A lot of vigilante things were lost on Tony, such as bad PR. Sure, the Avengers get some bad PR, but never J. Jonah. Jameson style, but then again, Spider-Man always had the best pictures, because Peter Parker gave them in for a bit of extra money.
    There was some things you learn when you’re in Peter’s line of business, and that is, how to calm down a rape victim, how to help a lost child who doesn’t want help, who to punch harder than the rest, who are first time thieves, and that sometimes things like “don’t pull the knife out” is a rule best ignored, (unless it was somewhere bad bad).
    You know Tony’s too far gone from the vigilante line of work, when it’s Pepper Potts, who tells Tony that a broken nose is the least of Peter’s worries, even though she too freaks out about it.

    Or;

    5 times The Avengers (excluding Clint) forgot Peter Parker is a vigilante, and 1 time everyone remembered.

    Summary

    "There are rules to being a superhero," Natasha tells Peter.

    Most of the rules are common sense. Stay off the fan sites. Don't fall in love with civilians. Don't burn bridges just to toast marshmallows over the flames. And, most importantly, don't go to war with the media.

    It's a pity that common sense isn't one of Peter's virtues.

     

    OR: Peter goes to war with the media, because he's never been good at following rules.

    Summary

    And the one time they did.

    Tony shattered the silence. “You seem surprised, why are you surprised?”

    Peter just blinked, focusing on Tony’s face. “But... I-ngg... uh,” Peter shook his head and huffed out a nervous laugh. “It’s the Avengers.”

    “Did Happy not fill you in?” Tony looked amused. Peter was just glad he wasn’t angry.

    Then it clicked. “Oh, that’s what he had been talking about! Sorry, I... uh...” his voice trailed off as his brain tried to catch up with his mouth. Sure, he’d either fought with or against most of these guys before, but it was a lot different when they showed up at your house. Or Tony’s house. Whatever.

    “Wasn’t paying attention?” Tony finished for him, amusement now obvious to the rest of the team, who were all looking back and forth between him and Tony like they had both grown a second head.

    Peter had enough brain cells left to look semi-sheepish. “Right. Sorry.”

    Summary

    Spider-Man always hit the attempted rapists the hardest.

    This was not due to some kind of personal connection.

    It wasn't.
