Summary
The trip back to Erid has been an education in the many fucking bizarre ways that human bodies can move. Turns out their squishiness means that almost every part of them can rotate and flail and twist in ways that sound like it should hurt, but no, this alien species chooses to contort their limbs for fun.
A series of observations on the human art of dancing, as witnessed by Rocky, engineer of the Blip-A and the Hail Mary.

Kiss me hard before you go (summertime sadness) by Hse11z5
Fandoms: Dead Boy Detectives (TV)
21 Sep 2026
Tags
Summary
"So pretty and yet so sad." A voice cut through Edwin's melancholy and made him jump. "Ah, what I'd give to make you smile."
"I beg your pardon?" Edwin snapped, his shoulders turning and his eyes locking onto the speaker.
"I- I-" The boy in front of him stuttered. Boy may have an understatement, a simplification of who he was. Because he must, surely, have been the same age as Edwin. He was tall and slim wearing joggers that cut a little low and a top that cut high and exposed a centimeter of stomach that would send Edwin to the brink of madness if he stared at it for too long. He was beautiful. Not handsome or cute but the kind of beautiful that made you blink rapidly to see if it was a trick of the light. He was, also, staring at Edwin with growing horror and looked like he wished for nothing more than to disappear completely. "I did not think you could hear me."

The Greatest Act of Optimism by Acewithapaintbrush

30 Apr 2026

Summary
The Eridian thrills a high sound that doesn’t get picked up by the translator which means that it has no clear meaning. Like when a human gasps or sucks in a deep breath. It actually sounds a little like that. When they notice that I’m staring straight at them they scramble back into their hiding spot and hold very still.
A child, I realize with a start.
That’s a child!
“Hey,” I call and the kid squeaks again. I was about to get to my feet but abort the movement and crawl closer on my hands and knees until I'm inches away from the xenonite wall. I wait and it takes me much too long to realize that they don’t have to peek around the corner to see if I’m still there.
“Hey there,” I try again, my voice low and calm. It’s my teacher voice, the one I use for shy and scared students.
Used.
The fact that I haven’t had to use it for years and it still comes to me automatically almost knocks the air out of my lungs but this is not about me, it’s about making sure the little pebble doesn’t die of fright from the scary alien. “Hi, I’m Grace. It’s alright, you don’t have to be scared.”

Summary
I lived with this hunger long before the Hail Mary. This is nothing new. I’m fine.
Right up until Rocky asks another question.
“When last time you touch other human person skin, question?”
Oh. Oh no. “When I… a few days after I first woke up here.”
Rocky starts to relax for a split second, but then tightens when something occurs to him.
“Grace crewmates dead when you wake up. You said this, statement. You not even know your own name, remember nothing, see dead bodies, confirm?”
I nod, because if I open my mouth I will gag.
“When last time Grace touch ALIVE human person, question.”
I swallow thickly. I don’t answer aloud because I know Rocky can hear the hitch in my breath. My stomach churns with fresh bile. He senses my vital signs tick over into stress patterns and goes very, very still again.
“Grace. When last time, question.”
I clench my jaw so hard my temples ache, and beg him with my eyes to just stop.
“Grace. Please say not when… when Evil Stratt humans put you to sleep.”
I can taste grass.

Summary
For reasons Wade doesn't quite understand, Spider-Man has taken a liking to him, which is wonderful because he's been smitten with Spidey since he first saw him... except Wade is Wade and Spidey must be a little bit delusional to want to be around him.
That's alright though, Wade hasn't been sane for a long time either and he's not about to look a gift horse in the mouth.

Songs for the Zombie Apocalypse by zerospoons_onlyknives (oprime)
Fandom Deadpool - All Media Types, Spider-Man - All Media Types
18 Dec 2023
Summary
Peter Parker always kind of thought that getting bitten by a spider in his teens and subsequently developing all sorts of non-human anatomy was the worst it was going to get for him. He couldn’t have been more wrong and he was one of the lucky ones.
The spider was just a shot over the bow, though. The foam on a wave from an ocean of shit that no one realized was coming until it was too late. Animals started to mutate, although scientists didn’t know how or why, or when. The biological changes were sudden, happening at an alarming rate, spreading to humans through bites and contaminated feces and who knew what else.
Then, humans began mutating on their own, without the nudge from the animal kingdom. And that’s when things got much, much worse. Like losing sentience worse.
It turns out that no one expects zombies.
OR
Peter Parker and Wade Wilson navigate zombies, religious extremists, and each other as they try to survive the apocalypse. What started as a kidnapping morphs into a weird bond between the two but sometimes it feels like only one of them can survive.

Summary
Spider-Man and Deadpool have a casual fling that Peter smartly breaks off before anyone can catch any pesky feelings. To prove that they aren’t hung up on each other (at all!), they make a bet on who can find a date faster. By a stroke of luck, Peter meets Wade Wilson soon after, so he has practically won the bet already.

So No One Told You Life Was Gonna Be This Way by Jenetica
Fandoms: Spider-Man - All Media Types, The Amazing Spider-Man (Movies - Webb), Deadpool - All Media Types
05 Feb 2022
Tags
Summary
Peter Parker's life doesn't need an influx of new, distinctly spidery Spider-Man powers. He would gladly spend the rest of his days not creating tiny spiders from nowhere, for example. Like, in a, "yes please, I'll take two orders of the 'no spider-parenthood lifestyle,' hold the whip" kind of way. And that's only the start of how certifiably nuts his life has gotten lately.
But... okay, the spiders are pretty cute. And the other powers, well, aren't horrible. He supposes. And if Deadpool seems to think his new spidery skills are great and interesting and hot (which is weird, but not as objectionable as Peter would expect), that's... that's not so horrible, either.
Alternatively: Peter's powers are a joke, he's broke, and his love life... isn't all that DOA.
~*~*~
See author's notes for tag descriptions and warnings, but for real, this is a mostly cute, constantly comedic foray into spidery!Spider-Man life.

The Merc with a Beak by Jenetica
Fandoms: Spider-Man - All Media Types, Deadpool - All Media Types
04 Aug 2026

Summary
Wade Wilson is the best merc in the business, and he knows it. When he crosses the wrong kind of withered old lady—the magic kind—she curses him to regret his cockiness in the most literal way possible: By turning him into a cock. A rooster. A male hen, of the chicken variety.
Peter Parker, grieving the loss of Aunt May and Uncle Ben, needs a change. That's what his grief counselor says, anyway. So he makes an impulsive and massive one: He buys a farm. He doesn't mean for it to turn in a rescue for broken things, he just... he can't help but love the animals that no one else wants. Thus, when he overhears a greasy, crude asshole trying to pawn off a rooster in the middle of a farmer's market, he doesn't hesitate.
But there's something wrong with this rooster. It doesn't crow at sunrise—which is the only thing Peter expects a rooster would do—but it does holler its tail off whenever Peter bends over. And it follows him around and clucks like it's talking to him. And it's weirdly good at killing the vermin around the house.
There's a mystery afoot. Peter's going to get to the bottom of it.
(The Beauty and the Beast!AU you never knew you needed.)

It Won't Hit You Until You Stop Bleeding (aka Spider-Man's Unwilling and Overdue Vacation) by paralleling

Summary
Maybe hitting his head was the catalyst to the situation; after all, Dr. Cho never mentioned any psychological effects from the arm injury. Maybe when he hit his head on the way down, or when brick and concrete crushed him like a bug, it shook loose all the bad memories from their designated “do not look at, touch, or think about” section in his mind.
Maybe that's why his mind shoves memory after memory down his throat, relentlessly forcing him to relive a past he'd rather not touch.
----
In the wake of a severe injury, Peter is forced to put down the mask for a bit, which is fine! Totally fine. He could use a break from vigilanteism. He’s a busy PhD student, you know? But when the reality of what Peter’s seen and done during his run as Spider-Man suddenly starts to catch up to him during that break, it becomes increasingly evident that Peter is not as unaffected by vigilanteism he’d like to believe.
While being relentlessly bullied by life itself, and accidentally becoming the roommate of a certain red-clad mercenary he’s been trying to shake, Peter has to eventually come to terms with the fact that something has to change, soon.
