In close relation to a previous work, “Parenting the Multi-Verse,” this story continues the ripple effects of a mission that was never meant to go wrong. After Endgame, Peter Parker was entrusted with helping return the Infinity Stones—one final act to set the universe right. But something fractured along the way. Instead of making it home, Peter was thrown out of his own timeline… and back into it.
Brought back as a six-year-old, with only fragments of memory and instincts that don’t quite match his age, Peter is taken in by Tony Stark and Pepper Potts—who slowly come to realize that this isn’t just any child. This is their Peter… just younger. Smaller. Far more fragile. Now raising a version of the boy who once fought beside them, Tony and Pepper navigate a new reality, one where Peter needs bedtime routines instead of battle plans, comfort instead of strategy, and constant care when his body fails him. When a severe illness takes hold—high fever, worsening congestion, and a hidden complication that leaves Peter in pain and unable to communicate what’s wrong—Tony and Pepper are forced to rely on Bruce Banner to step in.
