"Friday call the kid," Tony said while entering the tower's elevator.
"Calling Peter Parker." The annoying ringing of the phone began as Tony waited for Peter to answer. Tony hasn't stayed in very good touch with Peter over the past few weeks, he didn't have a reason not to, but it just never came to him to call the teen.
Tony started to get impatient with the ringing until Peter finally answered.
"Peter, hello." Tony was called in for a mission that he could have easily handled by himself but thought it could be good for Peter to help him with an easier mission.
"Hey Mr. Stark," Peter replied in a weirdly soft voice.
It was odd, he's usually all like, 'mR. StArK hI whAt cAn I dO fOr yoU!' But Tony ignored it, "I need you to help me with a mission, Happy will come pick you up soon."
"I can't Mr. Stark," Peter quickly said.
"Don't tell me you can't because of homework again, do it-" Tony was cut off.
"It's not because of that," a pause, "I just can't."
"Did aunt Hottie say no, because I can change her mind-" Tony was cut off again.
"I said I can't," Peter stated then immediately hung up. Tony's eyebrows furrowed.
"Would you like me to call Peter Parker back sir?" Friday asked.
"No I'll do this myself," Tony stated sternly. Tony walked out of the tower with his suit already forming around him. It bothered him how Peter rejected his offer to go on the mission. The thought ran through his mind as he flew off to where he was called.

When Tony returned with a success, he decided that tonight was a perfect night for him to work in the lab. Every night actually is a perfect night to work in the lab for him. But tonight he had to fix up a few things on his suit.

He went to the kitchen to grab a bite to eat before he locked himself away for the night. Once the elevator doors opened Steve greeted him, "hey Tony, how was the mission?"
"Good. Easy." Tony walked over to the fridge. Bruce and Natasha were watching the News. "They really need to give me something more challenging." Steve subtlety rolled his eyes.
Tony grabbed an apple and made his way back to the elevator until he listened in on the TV,
"-crime rates have been rising lately without our friendly neighborhood Spider-Man..."
"Bruce turn up the volume," Tony demanded.
Bruce did as told. "He's been a no show for about 2 weeks now. What will happened to the city without him? Is he dead?"
"Hey isn't that the kid you-" Steve began.
"Yeah, his name's Peter," Tony said, growing concerned. Peter told Tony it was ok for him to tell the Avengers who he was, he said that he trusted them to keep his secret. He pulled his phone out of his pant pocket and clicked on Peter's number. He got no answer. It was pretty late so he thought the kid might just be asleep. "I'll call him tomorrow," he said to himself while putting his phone away.
Tony left the kitchen to go down into his lab and work the night away once again.

The Ordinary Life of Tom Nobody
[participant in the 2018 NaNoWriMo Royal Road challenge] The Ordinary Life of Tom Nobody is a LitRPG system story where each person transitions into the system, or SCHEMA as this system is known, innocent and unaware of his former life. Following the tutorial, memories return, but by this point, each person has a better chance of accepting their new world. It also gives them an opportunity to start from scratch, fresh without all the baggage of their former lives dictating their decisions in the early stages of the process. I don’t expect this will necessarily turn into an action-packed heroic tale, my intent is to create a character who wants to have just an ordinary, but reasonably comfortable life. I don’t know myself how well he will succeed, there may be twists and Tom may discover some heroism hidden deep inside. I guess we’ll find out together. This is my first writing attempt. I’ve wanted to write all my life, but I’ve never been able to develop the proper discipline to put in the work. I hope I complete the challenge and work my way past this hump. I am writing this as part of the NaNoWriMo Royal Road Challenge. While I will try to self-edit as I go, the challenge requires close to 2,000 words a day, so parts of the story may be rough, and things like plot lines may not make as much sense as any of us would like. If all goes well, and I complete the challenge, I plan on going back through everything and trying to polish it up. In the meanwhile, thank you for reading and I hope I don’t disappoint.

8 127The Spark
Michael Locke was a normal student, who went through his normal day in a normal fashion, until the day became... unnatural. Shot into the country of Aldemar and thrust into a new world alongside his many classmates, he agrees to work for the king in exchange for shelter and to learn magic. Fate however, is indifferent to his wishes, as he quickly realizes that he may be a hero, but his purpose in this world is quite opposite. Suddenly surrounded on every side, Michael must work to survive, and if anyone finds his secret... He's as good as dead. The Spark is meant to be a murder mystery style isekai, focused on the existence of basically an anti-hero, with every one of the large amount of heroes attempting to discover who the traitor is. This isn't made to be a lovey dovey easy going isekai with an OP mc, it's made to stir around an emotional story, with many dark tones. Still, the goal is to stay fairly light hearted as well, and the perspective will pass around to several characters throughout the story.
8 195A Nation of Distances (possibly a dystopian love story)
Michael lives in a toxic macho world with extreme male hierarchy. When he gets a weird rating that makes his place even more problematic he's forced to choose a fiancée at a Wife School, and he slowly discovers more about the other side of the great divide between the sexes in The Nation. If only the world would stop being so complicated... On the other side there's Megan, who's more interested in books than in marriage, and the unpredictable Eliza who seems to have a connection with Micheal already. Will they be able to cross the distance and become friends against all the rules of their own world, or will they just be crushed? Are positive relationships between men and women even possible? And is there a way to change the world or is that just a naive thought of a silly wimp? 'A Nation of Distances' is a slightly dystopian dialogue-heavy drama set in a low sci-fi future setting about the war between the sexes, disconnect and friendship. The genre will fluctuate in between more slice-of-life parts and soft sci-fi drama with possible romantic elements, with alternating lead and switching perspectives once more of the main characters are established. Content Warning: Certain concepts and scenes might be disturbing and/or triggering to some, even though the story itself won't be extremely heavy most of the time. Sexism as a double-edged sword destructive to both sexes is an important part of the story, but so is friendship.Note that all descriptions of persons and places are purely fictional and made up by the writer, and any resemblance with anything in the real world is a coincidence, since the real world is not supposed to be dystopian anyway!
8 206Black Butler X Reader Oneshots
[NOT ACCEPTING REQUESTS]* Okay, let's face it: BLACK BUTLER CHARACTERS ARE HOT AS HELL. And hey, almost none are married or otherwise engaged, so would it really be a crime to take one~? Are you a fan of one of the Devil Six? Do you perhaps prefer anime exclusive characters? Or, maybe, you like the least popular ladies or gentlemen of the series.Who do you choose?-I do not own Black Butler or the characters within it (naturally, you do not belong to me either). I only own the stories within, thank you-
