WHO: May Parker & Tony Stark WHAT: Getting reacquainted WHERE: The farm! WARNINGS: PG for language SPOILERS: Endgame STATUS: Threading
Tony wasn't sure what to say to May in person. He'd spent the night in his lab so he'd avoid running into her and Peter if they returned to the apartment during that time. He wasn't being malicious and he wasn't exactly jealous; he just didn't know how to approach their new-fangled family. Peter was May's and she earned the right to tell Tony to fuck off if she chose. And why shouldn't she? Tony got the boy into trouble. It was the last thing he wanted, but he hurt May and Peter in their world. He never stopped blaming himself for it and he'd never forgive himself, but he'd come to terms with it. But now May was in Goodland and he had to confront it all over again. He'd apologized over the network, but he knew it wasn't enough so he invited her to the farm, which was quickly becoming another safe place for him. It was hard to feel badly with animals around. Still, he wasn't sure what to say when he saw her face to face.
