This situation can create a lot of opportunities for character growth. For Peter, he has to keep this huge part of his life hidden from someone he respects like Tony. He might struggle with the lies and the secrecy. For Tony, when he eventually finds out, it could be a shock that makes him re - evaluate his relationship with Peter. He might feel betrayed that Peter didn't trust him enough to tell him, or he could be impressed by Peter's ability to keep such a big secret.
One possible reason could be that Peter is really good at hiding it. He's careful with his actions and words around Tony, so Tony just doesn't suspect. For example, he always changes out of his suit before meeting Tony.
Well, Peter could also use his intelligence to create false alibis. Whenever there's an incident where Spider - Man is involved at the same time Peter should be somewhere else, he has a well - thought - out excuse ready. He might say he was at a study group or helping an old neighbor, and since he's known as a smart and helpful kid, the Avengers would be less likely to suspect him.
A great plot twist could be that Peter ends up saving one of the Avengers in his Spider - Man identity, but the Avenger doesn't recognize him at all. Later, when Peter is in his normal self, he casually mentions some details about the incident that only the person who was saved would know. This makes the Avenger start to suspect that there's more to Peter than meets the eye.
Peter might be embarrassed at first. He's been idolizing Spider - Man and now Tony, a real - life hero - like figure, knows about it. But then he realizes that Tony could be an even greater source of knowledge and support, so he becomes more open about his love for Spider - Man.
Peter could use his knowledge of the Avengers' schedules. For example, he could avoid being Spider - Man in areas where the Avengers are likely to be patrolling at the same time. Also, he could disguise his voice when interacting with them as Spider - Man, so they don't recognize any similarities to Peter. He might also modify his web - slinging patterns slightly when around the Avengers to make it seem like a different style from what they might expect from a local hero.
Maybe it could be about Peter introducing his superfamily to the world of Spider - Man. For example, his family members discover his identity as a Spider - Man fan and they start to get involved in his fan - related activities. They could attend comic - con together, or his family might even help him create his own Spider - Man - inspired cosplay.
One possible plot development could be that Peter is left with a huge sense of guilt. He might struggle with survivor's guilt, constantly thinking that it should have been him. He could then become overly reckless in his superhero activities, trying to prove that he was worthy of being saved. Another aspect could be how the other Avengers deal with Tony's death. They may turn to Peter as a symbol of hope, since Tony sacrificed himself for Peter. This added pressure on Peter could lead to him either rising to the occasion or crumbling under it.
Well, one possibility is that Buffy might struggle alone at first, trying to figure out how to handle the situation without Angel. She could be worried about his reaction. Another could be that her friends find out and try to support her while she decides whether or not to tell Angel.
A typical plot development could be that Harry starts to train himself to be able to assist Peter better. He might also face some internal conflict about whether he should tell others or not. In addition, there may be a situation where Peter's enemies target Harry to get to him, and they have to work together to overcome this threat. This type of fanfiction often explores how their friendship evolves under these new circumstances and how they both grow as characters in the face of the challenges that come with Peter's secret identity being revealed to Harry.
Well, Tony might be initially surprised. He could then start to use Peter's love for Spider - Man to his advantage. Maybe he'd give Peter more tasks related to Spider - Man tech, knowing that Peter would be more motivated. He might also start to train Peter in a way that's inspired by Spider - Man's abilities.
