Summary
All her life, men have sought her for only one thing. There was her first boyfriend in high school, who asked her outright, as he took her to the beach in his father’s sleekest convertible. Then there was Warner, who was always very gentleman about it, having the courtesy to take her to dinner first. And then there were all the men in between - poorly hidden glances in hallways, a whistle, sometimes even a bold hand that she needed to slap away.
Emmett is different. Sometimes she wonders if he isn’t.Or: Elle gets paranoid about resident asexual’s (tm) lack of reaction to her advances

Summary
For as long as Peter can remember, it’s always been just Pepper and him. That’s the good thing about their little family – they’re a symbiosis, a well-oiled cart which can withstand even the rockiest roads. With Pepper, Peter doesn’t have to feel guilty for taking up too much time or space, because Pepper needs him just as much as he does her. But now that Tony freaking Stark is smiling his one-billion-dollar smile at him from over his expensive dinner, Peter can hear that well-oiled machinery squeaking for the first time.
Or: Peter has been living with Pepper for most of his life. Everything is going great until she brings home her new boyfriend Tony. Enter Peter Parker’s big time Abandonment Issues™. Also why is that girl Michelle always hanging out with Ned these days?

Summary
Falling in love with Elle is hard. Objectively, it doesn't make a lot of sense. She’s not his type at all - excitable, rich, a little too focused on her appearance and very, well…, girly. Emmett, while generally not the type to fall in love easily, considers himself to be someone who judges people based on their character rather than their looks. It’s kind of hard not to notice Elle’s looks though, when she keeps strutting around campus in high-heels and alarmingly short miniskirts.
Or: Emmett and his relationship to Elle and femininity over the course of the musical

Summary
That’s when another voice is added to the mix and Peter’s pulse spikes a second time. “Oh, thank God, you found her,” a person, who looks and sounds suspiciously like Tony Stark, says. Peter looks back over at the woman and – yeah okay, that is definitely Pepper Potts.
Oh God, Peter just tried to explain a science pun to Tony Stark’s daughter.
Morgan rolls her eyes, finally letting go of his hand in favour of being picked up by her father. “No, daddy, I found him,” she says and gives Mr. Stark a meaningful look. Peter just isn’t sure what said meaning is supposed to be.Or: 5 reasons not to adopt Peter Parker + 5 times his attempts to fix them were never necessary in the first place

Summary
It's the end of a very long day, for everyone concerned. Willy is used to shaping the world around him exactly how he wants it to be, but with Charlie and his family in the picture, he will need to face up to some hard truths, a few awful mistakes, and at least one truly terrible first impression... just to get through the evening.
This story takes place after my two shorter one-shots, the Forgery and the Coupon, and is set right after the Golden Ticket tour.

Summary
“Is this distracting?” Elle asked, fingers twisting and twirling at the hair at the back of his head. And then they ran up, threading through to scratch at his scalp, and his eyelids fluttered. Absolutely. It felt like his scalp was being massaged by Aphrodite, of course it was distracting.

Summary
“Your parents have been grooming you to take over the company, correct? You’ve been working closely alongside them, alongside their best scientists and technicians. I’m sure you’ve learned a fair deal. We could use that expertise at Stark Industries.”
“Essentially,” Parker says, “you want to pay me to reveal my parents’ company secrets.”
“Yes,” Tony says, cheerfully. “Thank you for catching on so quickly.”
—
Tony’s week just turned a lot more promising: Rich kid Peter Parker has apparently dropped out of college and provoked the ire of his parents. A delicious scandal for the tabloids. And an opportunity too good to waste, even if it means putting up with a snooty, preppy college kid as his new intern.- Language:
