For all you writers out there…
Hand holding
Hand kisses
Playing with each other’s fingers
Running a thumb over the other’s hand
Hand SQUEEZES for comfort during a stressful situation
High-fives
Poking each other’s hands playfully
Hands resting beside each other, barely brushing
SCARS! ON! HANDS! (Tracing the scar with a fingertip, as the other stands, motionless.)
Dancing, hands linked according to the proper hold (but the touch is just a little too gentle, or too tight, to be routine)
Sign language
Morse Code, where one taps a message against the other’s hand
Sliding a bracelet onto the other’s wrist
Sliding a ring onto the other’s finger
Applying! Bandages!
Warming the other’s hands with their own
Fingers interlaced
Covering the other’s hand with their own
Tracing the patterns of the other’s hand and wrist
Hands brushing as they walk beside each other, each hoping the other will close the gap and take their hand
One with extremely soft hands, the other with extremely rough and calloused hands
BOTH with calloused hands
Holding hands while saying Grace
One with tiny hands, one with huge hands
Comparing! Hand! Sizes! By! Pressing! Palms! Together!
Fingers brushing as they hand each other things
Reaching for something at the same time, hands brushing, pulling away like they’ve been burned
Not noticing that they’re holding hands until friends point it out
Hands that turn to lifelines, connecting them together
One holding the hand of the other, who is unconscious, silently pleading with them to wake up
Bonus: The slow, weak squeeze when the other one finally starts to wake up
H a n d s
Just wanted to make this list as a thank you for 2k. Seriously, that’s wild. There’s some good stuff on here and every single author on this list is amazing.
multi-chaptered
Destiny Fulfilled by @seek-rest (master list) and @blondsak (master list)
You all are really sleeping on this fic. It has TWO great authors and brought us the tag Peter Parker Acting as Miles Morales’ Parental Figure. Every single relationship dynamic in this is great, and you get to see Peter run around and act like a mini-Tony and be completely clueless about it. READ IT.
Dumb Shit My Kid Says by @ardenskyedarcy221b (master list)
Exactly what the title says. Peter says dumb shit and Tony has to listen to it, because he just loves his kid. It’s witty and hilarious and everything you need to brighten your day.
built from scraps by @peter-stank (master list)
This story is so beautiful and I’ve felt every emotion reading it. It’s an AU, where Tony gets dusted instead of Peter, and Pepper takes Peter in, since May is gone too. I can’t list my favorite things without spoilers, so I’ll just say it literally has everything good, will always surprise you, in the very best ways.
from the cradle to the grave by @tempestaurora (AO3)
An AU that explores how that events of the MCU would have gone down if Tony and Nat were siblings, and oh my god, their sibling relationship in this is just perfect. Their banter, their clear love for each other. It’s beautiful. A work of art and canon.
A Beating Heart of Stone by @emeraldmoon (master list)
Probably one of the best villain Tony story I’ve ever read. Characters are complex and real, and Tony and Peter’s dynamic is super interesting.
one-shots
it traced us back (to where we began) by @blackwatchandromeda (master list)
A dead aunt may trope with a bio!irondad twist. It’s so, so soft, and lovely, and everything good.
Spiders Don’t Like The Dentist by @justme–emily (master list)
Peter goes to the dentist and gets drugged up and loves Thor. You don’t really need much else from a fic.
FFS: Fucking Flying Saucer by awesomesockes and @whumphoarder (master list)
Short but sweet, and so, so funny. Tony breaks his toe. Peter watches and eats cheese balls.
The Coparenting Protocol by @doctornineandthreequarters (AO3)
May and Tony coparent Peter when he’s caught breaking curfew and it’s his worse nightmare. He’s hilariously confused and terrified.
Of Needles and Ice Cream by @forensicleaf (AO3)
Fluff, fluffy fluff and Peter is terrified of needles and Tony has to deal with that. Tagged as Peter is a Disney Princess and that alone is enough reason to read the fic.
broken playgrounds by @hailing-stars (ME) (masterlist)
This is probably the most heavy thing I’ve ever written. Skip Westcott works at Morgan’s school. Peter has to decide what to do about that.
Never Meet Your Heroes by @camelot-queen (AO3)
Unless it’s Tony Stark. Focuses on Peter and Tony’s relationship after Homecoming and before Infinity War. It has whump, it has angst, it has everything, go read it.
The World Stopped by @day-dreamer176 (master list)
Tony takes care of sick Peter and the tower gets attacked. Balances fluff and angst nicely. A must read.
series
Irondad Bingo @frostysunflowers (master list)
This series is just filled with so much goodness and fluff and it just so soft, every fic is worth reading ten times. My personal favorite is Wild horses couldn’t drag me away for some good old hurt and drugged Peter and comforting dad Tony.
Tony and Peter’s Super Awesome, Totally Cool Baby-Sitting Adventures by @ironfamjam (master list)
MIT Tony babysits kid Peter. This series is everything to me. Guys, it has baby Tony and Rhodey being roommates. It has adorable kid Peter Parker. and in the the latest fic World’s Best Genius-Billionaire-Side it has teenaged Tony taking care of Peter while he has the flu. It’s genius, really.
Say it with me folks:
“Eat the rich” means 1%ers and billionaires
middle class is closer to poverty than being a multimillionaire
“The rich” does NOT include children of billionaires (come on we’re at least slightly better than the plagues of Egypt)
Upper middle class children SHOULD NOT feel guilt over having money
Being aware of privilege and using your privilege to help others IS NOT a guilt trip
Constantly feeling guilty helps no one
Billionaires, however, should feel guilty over hoarding wealth.
Upper middle class is NOT rich

hi im bitter about people not commenting on fics. im sad seeing all these authors get so discouraged because no one comments. it takes like 5 seconds! just do it!! dont know what to type? me neither! heres some handy pre-written comments for you! “I dont know what to comment! That was great! thank you for your hard work!” “That was lovely! I really enjoyed this chapter/fic.” “How dare you?” “AAAAAAAAAAAAA” “Extra kudos because one is not enough!” if you read a fic and dont know what to say, leave the tab open, come back later! see if theres a line you really liked! tell them if it reminded you of something dumb! tell them if your roommate saw you crying while reading it and now your roommate is reading it!!! SHARE WHATEVER. BE INCLUSIVE! everyone wants to hear SOMETHING. silence kills passion. show authors you care! show artists you care!!!!

A cool technique for time management.
by eliotandq
“The night shifts are better paid, and we need the money. I don’t know why you’re doing such a big thing about it. You like spending time with Tony, and especially with Pepper.” “Yeah, but I feel like I’m just bothering them, May.” “That’s just your feeling.”
Or, it is common that Peter spends his time in the Tower whenever May is at work, but it’s the first time his nightmares catch him there.
