13 the spider-man can
Peter sits with a lump in his throat, still wearing a baseball cap the wrong way around just because it made Tony giggle like a little kid when he put it on like that, and wonders how he got here. (Spider-Mania (geddit?) has gripped Midtown School. Rumour has it there's a play on Thursday night, 7:00pm, tickets only 10 a pop...)

21 first breakfast
"Kid," Sam says, and the only minor in the room chews, swallows, and points to his own chest questioningly. "Yeah, you. Just one question: who are you?" (Peter has breakfast at the Compound, or, It's okay to meet your heroes when those heroes are the Avengers!)

31 decidedly dad-like behaviour
"Something came up," Tony says. "I had to make a detour on my way to our lunch meeting. I'm sorry you're gonna miss those bacon sandwiches you like but…" Tony trails off and jerks his thumb, indicating the back seat. Rhodey twists around and jumps. "Holy shit," he says, just shy of shouting it. (In which Tony is late for lunch with Rhodey and there's a good reason for it.)
