    Summary

    Dick Grayson sees a random kid perform the Flying Grayson's quadruple somersault at a third rate circus. So obviously, he does the sensible thing: joins a suspicious circus under his legal name while his family watches in morbid curiosity and horror.

    Because subtlety is for people who didn’t grow up performing death-defying acts thirty feet in the air.

    Years of crime-fighting prepared him for a lot of things. What he didn't expect was to lose his footing once and stumble into fatherhood.

    Summary

    Peter has always stood under the rain in search of absolution: to wash away the blood that soaks his hands and his life.

    ...He doesn't have to do that anymore.

    OR

    A character being submerged in water normally symbolizes rebirth or a change, or the washing away of something.

    (Peter's doing alright.)

    Summary

    "Maybe," Peter thought, "I can make a life here."
    Hence the tears and the guilt and the grief, because was Peter allowed to move on? Was he allowed to… to leave it all behind? Leave all the bad things in the past?
    Peter was "The Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man!" after all, and wasn’t he letting Queens - his people - down if he didn’t fight tooth and nail to get back to them?
    or

    Peter's tired. He's so tired, and he doesn't know what to do, but maybe things will get better.
    (They do.)

    Summary

    Peter Parker's new teacher is Savior of the World Doctor Ryland Grace. That's great. Less great: He found out he's Spider-Man, and wants to talk to a responsible adult.
    Least great: Apparently he and Mr. Stark know each other. Somehow, that's a bad thing.

    Summary

    Peter’s science teacher, Mr. Grace, senses that something is affecting him when he notices Peter’s decline in attentiveness and increased absences. Taking matters into his own hands, Ryland decides to talk to who picks Peter up after school, and that person is none other than Tony Stark. The two seem to be more familiar with each other than previously let on, and now Peter has to deal with his mentor chasing after his teacher.

    Or: Ryland and Tony had hooked up in college, and seeing each other brought back those feelings they thought were buried down. With Ryland now in his reach, Tony makes it his mission to win him over.
