#peter does ballet

[penneinwonderland]

Headcanon- Natasha teaches Peter ballet. He helps her reclaim the art and she loves dancing with someone who can appreciate and use the art. When Miles comes around Peter starts teaching Miles ballet. Miles never questions why some days Peter has soft tears on his face but he grows to love the art and even preforms outside of Spider-Man jobs. Peter goes to his first recital with a photo of Natasha in his pocket.

I have another hc!!! Peter does ballet!!!

I know literally NOTHING about ballet ngl!! I have a friend who does ballet, but I’ve never asked her about it lmao I’m the literal worst

• peter does it for a while when he’s little, but gets teased for it, so he stops

• but when he gets bitten and becomes spiderman, he thinks the benefits of learning things like better balance will outweigh the downsides of being bullied (he’s already bullied so like?? nothing new?)

• he asks may if he can take classes again and she agrees!! she always finds a way to get him to his classes, she buys him any supplies he needs, etc! super supportive!

• then the “stark internship” starts, and may tells him he should start focusing on that instead of ballet! because that’s an actual, real job right there!! that’s being an adult!!

• he gets pulled out of classes

• peter misses it tho, and as he and tony start to get closer, he opens up about that to him. tony immediately is like “then let’s get you a ballet class, kid!” and once may learns that the stark internship isn’t rlly a thing anyway, she’s in full support, too!

• he starts classes again, and is super thrilled! he gets lessons from nat! no one at school rlly knows he’s taking them for a while, except MJ and ned, since he tells them!

• then maybe he’s like? showing a video of a rehearsal to his friends and kids at school see it, and oh boy now he’s gettin bullied about it again! aw fiddlesticks

• he tries not to let it bother him but?? when does that ever work :( and so he just kinda tries to live his life around the teasing, but EVERYONE close to him notices he’s off. he’s sad, he’s reluctant to go to school, hesitant to go to ballet

• they find out he’s being bullied

• and you know how tony decides he can help? does he go in to talk to the school? does he give peter a “stand up for yourself” speech? does he email the bullies’ parents like a soccer mom?? no

• he takes ballet classes.

• tony stark does ballet.

• he and morgan and pepper all do, VERY publically. everyone knows. ballet is hot shit now. everyone and their mom knows about tony stark doin ballet, everyone wants to try it

• and when tony is asked about what inspired him to start taking classes, you know what he says?

• “One of my younger interns, Peter, does ballet. He showed me one of his recitals. I thought it looked cool.”

wow I just wrote a fic outline oops my bad 🤭
