Omg I am so glad I found your blog!!! Read some epic fanfics from here.
Ok. The fanfic I am looking for. I am so worried it's deleted because I have not been able to find it. Post No Way Home because everyone has forgotten Peter. He is at a college and Tony Stark has a cypher (not sure if it's hydra related, can't remember) that he brings to the college or posts online somewhere. Peter solves the cypher and Tony stark and someone else (maybe Rhody, maybe doctor strange?) go to Peters apartment and it's super shitty and meet him there to talk about the cypher. I think Peter has been fixing up technology and mechanical stuff for his neighbors. They invite Peter to the cabin and when he goes to the cabin the other avengers arrive and old man steve recognizes Peter (because he was in the past when the spell was casted) and everything is wtf and Steve is like... Come on guys it's Peter. I think the others start remembering him after.
That's the ficn I am looking for!! Any help would be amazing🩷🙏I miss it so much
This is for you

Post-NWH.
The Avengers haven’t been much of a group since they defeated Thanos, since a large fraction of the team died, retired, went AWOL or MIA. It’s mainly up to Sam and Bucky – with some help from a still recovering Tony – to catch the latest enhanced serial killer roaming the streets of New York.
Until a random college student from MIT named Peter Parker suddenly seems to have some answers.
Sam is cautious. Tony is intrigued. Bucky is the voice of reason for a change.
Do you know any fics on ao3—either post or before no way home.
Where Peter goes by like a different identity or anything similar to that?
Sorry for the wait. This is honestly the only fic I can think of where Peter goes by a different identity after NWH. It’s unfinished though.
In The Stars by Velnetta
Exactly two days after the battle of New York, a teenager is caught climbing up the side of the newly christened Avenger's Tower. Tony Stark is determined to solve the mystery of the boy who seemingly doesn't exist, convinced that he is somehow connected to what he saw in the wormhole.
or
Peter Parker has lost everything, so why not throw in a little accidental time travel into the mix?

Tldr; At the end of NWH, Ned and MJ get sent back a decade, and then they do it again and again and again
It's the end of No Way Home and Peter is saying goodbye to Ned and MJ. They're hugging and crying and MJ is watching Peter with such devastation. Because she knows him. She knows he will want to tell them, she doesn't know if he actually will. And she is staring at him, doing her best to memorize everything about him. She is so sure that she will know him even if she can't remember him. Magic can not erase the thing between them, they can't erase everything that they've been through, she won't let it.
Someone's will affects magic and how it works.
Strange does his spell and MJ blinks and-
She wakes up. And she's in her bed, in her lofted bed. She hasn't had her lofted bed since before the Snap, and even then, she got rid of it in December of 2017. She is blinking because she remembers Peter Parker, she remembers Spider-Man, and she is in her lofted bed.
She turns, leaning over the edge, and takes in everything. A poster that she tore down in May of 2016 because she found out the lead singer was a piece of shit, a piece of art she threw away in early 2016, her textbooks from 2014 or 2015, she never paid them much attention.
She knows time travel is possible. Once she found out Peter was Spider-Man, it was hard for him not to talk about all kinds of things. If she thought he was a motormouth before, that didn't compare to now. It didn't stop her from listening with as much attentiveness as before, though. She commented, she made jokes, she teased, but she listened.
But she knows time travel is possible. She knows that's how they all were brought back. But she never thought it would happen to her.
Because that's what it has to be. She had not dreamt the next decade, she refuses for that to be a possibility. And because she remembers the hurt, the pain, every single detail of it all she knows she hasn't dreamt it.
Peter hasn't been bit yet. She sees him in her middle school (and the fact that she needs to go through all of her past classes again is painful, but hey! She at least kept her art abilities and none of her teachers can get mad at her when she isn't paying attention if she knows the answers). He has his glasses on, talking to Ned. Peter looks brighter than she is used to, even with his big, nerdy glasses and the way he's pale and short and twiggy looking. More twiggy than usual, at the very least.
But MJ's gaze is zeroed in on Ned who is looking at Peter with wide eyes and looks like he had cried a couple of times that day already. He's pale and looks like he wants to blurt something out and, when they meet eyes, he looks terrified and as if he's seen too much, before he looks away and swallows and responds to Peter as best as possible.
And she knows. She knows immediately that this Ned is the Ned she knows.
She corners him and he is denying it. He thinks it is some sort of prophetic dream. He knows he has magic now and it's some sort of prophetic dream and he refuses for it to be real. "This can't be real. Time travel doesn't just happen MJ, especially not to us!"
"If it's a prophetic dream based on your magic, then why can I remember?"
"I don't know."
They're both distressed, they're both stressed, but MJ is shoving this to the back of her brain. She's thinking rationally and she is spiralling in the back of her mind but that is okay. After this is all done with, she can freak out about it. She can lock herself in her room and scream and cry, but right now, she needs to lock the fuck in.
And it's a big back and forth as they try to figure out what to do. Until Ned just says "if this is a prophecy, we can't change it."
And they don't. MJ becomes a friend sooner, Peter gets bit, the Vulture happens (except MJ knows this time, she and Ned and Peter gossip about Spider-Man and the superheroes and she still calls them losers, but a part of her still feels fulfilled), the Snap happens and they're all gone and she can go days and weeks and months without thinking that she is reliving her life. Ned and her have made the executive decision to not change anything. They'll nudge him in certain directions, they'll push him to spend lab days with Stark (even though MJ is not a fan of him, never has, never will, but the way Peter used to and does yap about him has endeared some side of him to her.) They'll urge him to spend time with May (and Ned and MJ get into a huge argument about that, too. Ned is very firm, if not very guilty on the, "this is a prophetic dream from magic, we cannot, and should not, change anything about it" and MJ is pondering if they're monsters for letting Aunt May die, for letting this run their course, but maybe they'll get to continue their lives this time and it's a very big spiral for both of them. Because Ned doesn't want May to die but he's also scared at the magic forces at work here.)
They are friends and MJ and Ned are kind of weird about everything because they're unsure how to navigate this, but for the big things, they just let everything run their course. Ned is better at the portals though. He knew this had been magic since the beginning, he could feel it even if that didn't make sense. He worked with computers and he went to a STEM school and yeah, magic was cool, gods existed, but he wasn't supposed to have magic. Magic doesn't happen to guys like him!
They let everything run its course and MJ smiles this time at the end and she believes, knows, she will forget him, but she will never forget him. She can't, some part of her, her soul if she believed in things like that, would never let her forget and she blinks and-
She wakes up in her lofted bed.
She lets herself panic this time. She doesn't even have to talk to Ned, Ned comes up to her and just goes "Dude???" and she nods and repeats "DUDE!" In the middle of the hallway and they're earning strange looks and Peter is just like "Uh, Ned? Who is she?" (and she refuses to flinch at how that hurts. She refuses to think how they have spent almost a decade (because they were part of the blip) together and he doesn't know her, because she is on the brink of a breakdown right now.)
And Ned panics and, apparently, after a year of hiding his panic and fear from Peter, he is still not a good liar, he says "We met online! And-"
"He was stupid and gave me his name, I figured out we went to school together" MJ cuts in and it's terrifying how far away her voice feels at that moment but if she doesn't, she would crash out.
They somehow get through school and Peter is curious about MJ and MJ is trying not to fall apart because he's asking basic questions about her favourite colour and subject and she knows him but she grins and bears it because this is the second time this has happened.
She tries to get Ned to skip their last period, but Ned says his Lola would kill him and she has to remind herself that they are children. Again. But they dip as soon as the bell rings, sprinting away to one of their houses.
And they go "we need to lock in" and then effectively freak out for a good half hour, before MJ takes a deep breath in and goes "I don't think this is a prophetic dream anymore" and Ned shakes his head.
"What do we do?"
They make a timeline. It's rough and inomplete but they know enough about Peter's own stories that they're able to piece together a fairly cohesive timeline of Spider-Man and the Major Events of the world. (A decade is a lot to remember, but they're doing their best to write everything out. It's a lot of arguing of when, exactly, things happened, but they've happened twice so far so they have a better memory of it.)
Eventually they decide the best course is to steal a sling ring from the Inner Sanctuary. They know how to get in, they know where it is, they know what it looks like. And if Ned can perfect his magic circles, they can start to steal books figure out how they keep going back in time, how to stop it.
It's fairly easy, all things considered. They get in, someone notices but they're able to hide, they're able to find the sling rings, take one, and get out.
Ned practices his magic and they debate on what they can change. Peter gets bit, obviously. That's something they don't think they can change. But! They let him know immediately that they know and he's suspicious, but they have a pre-planned script of what to say and how they know.
Ned works on his magic, everything is going great. They...are greatly conflicted on how to deal with Stark recruiting Peter. Ned says it's cool, MJ is very on the fence about it because this is a grown man taking a child to fight in his fights. And, as a lot of these things do, it devolves into an argument until they finally agree on "okay, fine, Peter doesn't get hurt too bad and it's good for him to have connections/be friendly with Stark."
So the Accords happen. The Vulture...happens, but not the same way. Ned fucking hacks into the FBI or something (with great prompting and great anxiety and "If anything happens, I'm telling them you made me do it") to alert them to Adrian Toomes' crimes. And it works but Peter is still forced into a fight with him, but! He doesn't have to crash a plane! (And also...I don't think the Washington monument ever happened. Ned knows not to bring the alien rock through metal detectors now and it also makes sure Peter isn't stressing about them which is opposite of their goal.)
They're with him through it all. All the little things, every single big thing, they're there for it. When May yells at him for being Spider-Man, they're dragged into it. When he needs to patch himself up, MJ has learned some techniques to help. She's gotten good at stitching even if it makes her sick.
They convince Peter to not go on the MOMA trip. They're at a park and the aliens attack and they wave him off. And they're there, gripping each other's hands as they wait for the Snap. It's late at night and they're gripping each other's hands and they're bracing themselves to blink and come back in five years and none of the world is prepared for that and-
Ned crumbles to dust and MJ waits. And she waits. And, through the screams and the horns blaring and the cars crashing and sobbing and the fear, she waits. She waits until she can't wait no more and she realizes that she's alone.
And she crumbles. Because Ned is gone, she doesn't know if Peter is gone, but she knows what will happen in five years.
So she plots and builds and uses the knowledge of what will happen to her advantage. Stark comes back and he's the one to let her know that Peter is gone. He comes personally, with guilt on his shoulders and in his eyes, that he's gone. May is gone, her parents are gone. She is, effectively alone. But if she needs anything, because it's what Peter would have wanted, she can call them.
And she...is hesitant, but she agrees. She takes his number and she goes to the Inner Sanctum and begs to learn about magic. She's told, succinctly, that she can't use magic, but she says she doesn't care, she just wants to learn about magic.
And she spends time between Stark's cottage, being weird because she knows he's going to die, knows he's going to invent time travel, but doesn't know how or where, and she spends time at the Inner Sanctum reading books about time magic which gains a lot of eyebrow raises from Wong, but he doesn't comment. She doesn't have magic, she's just satiating her own curiosity.
MJ is waiting at the park for Ned, knowledge at her fingertips. She knows how and why Stark created time travel now (which...she wonders if Peter knows it is for him. That half the world is alive because he was snapped and Stark decided he was worth it to try to solve the impossible and brought everyone back. That means they can't fuck up now. And...she can't let Ned know. If she lets him know, he will be more anxious than he already is and that just can't or shouldn't happen.)
She waits for him and to see him just appear out of nothing is terrifying.
"That never stops being weird," are the first words out of his mouth. And he turns to look at her and he opens his mouth and then closes it and then opens it again and says "MJ...are you- you're older."
And she says "Yep."
"But the Snap."
"Didn't happen this time."
"But-"
"Come on, I have information."
It isn't enough. She should have just stook with her regular hopes and beliefs and not expecting anything good because it isn't enough. Mysterio, despite how many times they almost stop him, gets in the way. His technology doesn't fool magic, but when he can be anywhere and everyone all at once, it's difficult to combat even when they know how it happens. They save May. Barely. A portal to a hospital, but MJ blinks and it is the same.
And many more loops happen. They keep going back in time and keep meeting up and learning and a bunch of different things happen.
The Ancient One finds them a couple of times in. "You are messing with magic you don't understand." "We know that and if you help, that would be great!" Except she doesn't tell them anything, just tells them that they need to figure it out themselves.
They promise early on to never take the decision of Peter being Spider-Man away from him.
Peter's identity is always revealed. Not necessarily by Mysterio, but his identity is always revealed leading him to making that spell and that mistake over and over again. Nothing they say can change it
Peter gets massive deja vu all the time
Peter is always snapped
There is a loop where MJ and Ned just become rogues/villains as they deepdive into how the world works and what makes it spin and Spider-Man catches them and it's...a rough one.
They don't let him get bit. They're able to brush the spider off of Peter and step on it before it can bite him and he thanks them for it. He says "I would've hated to be bit" and they think they're finally on the wrong path, no matter how sick they feel with making that decision.
Peter is weak. He is asthmatic and he loves his aunt and he has never been safer than he is now. Ned and MJ sigh in relief and count the days down. And in the meantime, they stop the crimes Peter is supposed to stop. The petty ones and the Vulture. Ned is basically a master in magic now, stealing books from the sorcerer's libraries, not to mention how much he has improved in his tech. MJ has always been the one able to remember everything, writing things down, gathering information and getting people to listen to her. And they take over the Spider-Man duties without any complaints. It's fine, they're both fine and they're tired, but Peter is safe and this is the most promising loop yet. The one that is the most different.
The Snap happens, and they're on the bus to MOMA this year because they can't convince Peter to abandon the field trip this time. He's way more scared of getting into trouble, way more scared of everything, and they had never noticed that before, that he does everything fearfully. And it sucks.
But they're on the bus and Ned and MJ lock eyes and they're mentally counting down. Abe disappears from where he is yapping to MJ, and there are screams and thankfully their bus driver doesn't snap. And they wait for a second, confident that neither of them going to Blip this time, and they turn to Peter, watching, waiting for him to disappear.
He looks pale and sick. He's frozen in fear before he jerks and turns his head to them and they're watching him.
Except he doesn't disappear. Peter swallows heavily, his breaths coming fast and heavy and he asks "What just happened? Is this a dream?"
And they know they've officially changed the course of everything. Peter has always, without fail, Blipped, but this is new.
Lola houses them. Aunt May is gone, and Peter grieves. MJ's dad is gone and she has never cared for her mother, and the hurt has lessened with how many times she has experienced it. They grieve and Lola houses them and they eventually graduate. They're navigating the world better than the average person, but they keep off the radar.
Half of the universe stays gone. Stark never Snaps them back because he never had the reason, the catalyst, to. And Ned is forced to learn that Peter being Blipped is why the other half of the universe comes back. It's something MJ has always kept close to her chest and something she could never tell Peter or Ned.
Peter goes to work at a budding newspaper company. Ned and MJ focus on their own vigilante duties, working on keeping the streets safe and making sure people know their resources and they start FEAST in the name of May.
It feels like it comes too soon, but suddenly they wake up one day and they realize that it's a day they never made it to. MJ's so happy she's cheering. They made it! They made it!
And it's...funny, suddenly, how empty the world feels. Because they've all gotten their own apartments. Ned calls her, and they're geeking out together that they finally did it, they busted out of the time loop!
MJ is scrolling through her contacts and realizes...she hasn't texted Peter in months. And she's sitting there thinking that can't be right, but that's okay, Ned and she pick up sandwiches for Peter and go to surprise him on his lunch break.
And...he's surprised. "We haven't seen each other in a year." And they think...no....that can't be right.
Except they realize that they haven't spent much time with Peter. They've been so busy doing his duties in keeping the city safe and keeping him safe that they neglected their friendship with him. And he's miserable. No Aunt May, no Spider-Man, no Ned, no MJ. He has nobody and nothing except the Daily Bugle and a tiny, rundown apartment.
Eventually they come to the realization that without Peter being Spider-Man, by taking that decision away, they made him miserable. They took away his purpose, the only things that he excelled at. And they resolve themselves to fix it one last time.
They go and argue with Wong, arguing and snippish until Ned just snaps that he'll do it.
Wong says something about how only very experienced sorcerers can do that kind of magic and as Ned was never trained, he would be unable to accomplish it. Even Wong isn't competent enough to attempt a time spell like that without dipping into extremely dark magics or using the Eye of Agamotto, one of which he refuses to do and the other of which he doesn't have access to.
But he's forced to relent when MJ helps Ned figure out how the runes should work and he performs the spell and MJ blinks and-
Blinks. And Peter is saying goodbye to them. She feels the cut on her forehead and she meets Ned's eyes over Peter's shoulder and she gives a shaky smile. And she kisses Peter and she says "See you soon." with the saddest smile possible. And she blinks and-
She doesn't know why she's standing on Liberty Island, but Ned is there with her and she smiles. She doesn't know why but she feels like they just accomplished something great, something right. But something itches at her, a vague memory she can't recall, but Ned blinks and grins and the amount of relief in his eyes makes the knot in her shoulders unwind. She doesn't know, but they did it.
(It's easy to ignore that gnawing in her stomach for something more, that's always been there, and there's a constant itch that she's forgetting something. And when a Peter Parker walks into the donut shop she works at and just orders a coffee, something tells her that he is important, that she knows him, but she can't think of it so she doesn't say anything. And she blinks.)
Fellow Peter Parker fanfic readers, I humbly ask once again for the assistance to find a fic, because my reblog drafts/likes of Peter Parker one shots and fanfics are too many and I’m too lazy to scroll down again and again ‘till my crappy wifi disappears and has me redo the entire process all over again. Wifi service of mine this month has been very uncooperative 😡🤬.
I don’t remember specifics but the fic is set after NWH. Y/N is Tony’s daughter (unsure if this is actually part of the fic), everyone forgets Peter - you know the drill, but eventually everyone remembers him. One detail that is different with this fic among the rest is that when Peter and Y/N kiss for the first time (?), their friends celebrate by singing to Blitzkrieg Bop.
Anyone have a clue what the title of this tumblr series is?
hi! i’m looking for a fic i read a while back. it’s post-NWH and peter finds himself in tony’s cabin in an alternate universe in which peter is dead, but tony lived (and in turn, may lives too and everyone still knows who peter is). dr strange is there too trying to figure out how peter slipped into this universe. it’s multichapter and i believe completed, but it’s not “Home for Christmas” or “Through The Multiverse and What Peter Found There”. thank you!!
Sorry for the wait. Is this the one?
Broken Mirrors and Fragile Things by EvieNyx
(I am Peter Benjamin Parker, and I exist.)
- - -
Three months after his existence was erased, Peter Parker was not doing so well. His solace came from knowing that at the very least he had managed to save his city in the end.
Apparently, though, Peter realized as Doctor Strange explained to him that he had to give up even more, losing everything-and-then-some just wasn't enough.
OR
The multiverse continues to collapse in on itself. Doctor Strange discovers the source of the problem as Peter Parker. The only viable solution is to remove Peter from his original universe so that no more entities will be drawn to his presence there.
Peter is sent to a world that lost its Peter Parker, and finds himself lost in a sea of people he'd grieved who had all grieved him in kind.
i think he carved his name into the walls of that cave in the hopes that, if his body isn’t found, at least his name will be.
and ever since, when he sees words and names splattered on walls, he can’t help but think of a person who just wants proof that they were there.
spots where only one person has gotten up make him think of the lonely night picking out a spot in the wall that isn’t likely to be destroyed. the quiet of scratching his own name in. What it might have felt like to get up there, alone.
I think he’d find it fascinating. An art form that is “destructive” in its creation. Proof of life and a signal that one exists.
He’d never admit it. He’d never say as much. He certainly never told anyone of the “TONY” carved in the Afghan wall, or how he long debated if he should have put “STARK”, and the way he wonders if his name is still there somehow and survived the explosion.
If a piece of him is still in that cave.
If these artists whose tags are up all around him are still alive, if they know that their work is still up, if they remember it.
He still wonders. he wouldn’t admit it. But he notices as much if it as he can, and tries to remember the tags, just in case.
He notices new ones, if they’re prominent enough. If it’s an area he sees regularly, and a tag he’s never seen before. He adds it to his mental list of people to not forget, just in case they’re gone like he thought he was back in that cave.
So when “PETE” starts popping up in red and blue with white lines through it, he notices. He doesn’t know of anyone named Pete, save Peter quill, and he wonders.
Who is it that hopes not to be forgotten? Who is it that’s started leaving pieces of themself through the city?
