Summary
Peter and Deadpool are held captive by a super-villain that has an inclination for torture. After she boasts her untarnished record at never having hurt a child or teenager, Peter is forced to break the truth to both her and Deadpool. “Did you know I have a perfect record?” The villain collects a rusted pocket knife, tracing it up Peter’s arm, over his shoulders, down to his collarbone, as though considering where to cut. Peter focuses on controlling his breathing, fear twisting awfully in his belly. “You may look down on me, Mr. Spider-Man, but for all the righteous suffering I inflict, I’ve never hurt a child. Not once.” “Y'know, I don’t think you do,” Peter blurts. At his words, Deadpool's stare intensifies. “Have a perfect, non-child harming record, that is.”

2 months agoI really adore fics where Peter's age is brought up (and freaks everyone out). I think with Dead pool's original story he won't the one to hurt children too. Loved your fic. ;3

2 months agoDeadpool is just cute. And I love him with Peter, they're bro's-.
SoManyShems
2 months agoOh God, this is everything I need in life. A fix where Deadpool and Spidey are bros, and after finding out his age Deadpool stops flirting with Peter but keeps being bros (and Deadpool as an adult figure and being protective is so fun to read in this and so gosh darn cute!). It always makes me super uncomfortable in fics when they have them be together in a relationship with full knowledge that Peter is underage (I'm 15 and even I know that's disturbing as hell), so I'm so glad you didn't make them a pairing!

2 months agoYes. Yes to all of this, especially Peter running into Wade's insane enemies and Happy Meals and pancakes. Yes.

2 months agoI loved this! One thing that always, always gets me is hurt!Peter (the /feels) and I love when it's revealed to villains that the hero they've been ruthlessly hurting and trying to kill is actually just a kid with too much responsibility on his shoulders. It hurts me that Peter has to deal with so much at such a young age and no one ever gives him a break. Deadpool is an amazing character and while his morals are sometimes questionable, I believe he's overall a good guy. Especially when it comes to kids (I don't think I've ever seen him be anything but super sweet when kids are around). I love the way you write him and his relationship with Spidey. I think it's 100% true to both their characters.

2 months agoAw, I really like this. Totally agree on the whole Deadpool would probably be super protective of children.

2 months agoI love everything about this - the horrified villain (because even criminals have morals - or think they do?) and Deadpool, being so nice. And not-pervy. I bet Peter's pretty glad about that part, in particular. Thanks for sharing!

2 months ago!!! Bro I loved this. Seriously I actually went and browsed your other fics after I saw this. You're really talented <3 I wanted to thank you.

2 months agoThis is lovely, Deadpool can be a sweety sometimes....also a murderer but he's still adorable! Baby Spidey is adorable also, he seemed to get over all his wounds (mentally and physically) pretty fast though. Can his healing factor heal the scar tissue? Does he need like real medical attention? Again, will he have any mental issues after torture? Why am I asking so many questions about a fictional character? (Because they're adorable) Anyways, I loved it and have a great day!

2 months agoThis was super heartwarming, as weird as that may sound - I loved Wade getting all protective over Peter, and I love their relationship. You nailed the Deadpool voice :D
loveistrueblue
2 months agoThis is so???? lovely???? And awesome???? And???? I just????*Takes deep breath* Time to (attempt) a (slightly) intelligent review. This was so gooood! I love the characterization so much, because it feels just like Wade and Peter. You got that nailed. And the dialogue is incredible and fantastic!!!!! And I totally agree about the Deadpool and kids thing. Just.... this is one of the best fics I've read in a while (and listen, I'm a hurt!Peter junkie). I'd just like to end this comment with a very intellectual, beneficial and intelligent sentence: ASDFGHJKL^.^

2 months agoWe meet again. Yay /o/ I've had a quite stressful couple of days, and seen you've posted it, and although I knew I'm going to run late reading this - I buckled up and told myself my soul needs it.It needed it. (I ran late, but it turned out fine.)I'm really happy you've extended the scene from your wonderful Jacket-story to a one-shot here! A non-sexual H/C one is the best-best. <3 I've liked the part where the sexual intention from Wade dropped (yes my moral baby good) and Peter felt relieved and better for it; I've found it very relatable. I'm glad Peter still wants Wade's company and friendship and lets him know it; Wade deserves reassurance too (even though he'll probably have a mini-breakdown for having a teenager as one of the most important people to him PLUS having had a crush on said teenager... stay strong, muffin.) And Peter asking Wade to take him home!! OMG ultimate-yay-moment. The part with the burgers was cute, too! I love how you constructed a potential conflict in such a clever way; it also reflected Peter's inherent need to defend himself even when there's no ill intent. Also there's a wonderful post about Deadpool's treatment towards children. I strongly encourage the Wade-nursing-an-injured-Peter trope. Live la vida loca! Thanks for another delightful story! <3

2 months agoI loved this fic! I have read some of your others and think they are amazing. Also I love it when spidey's age is revealed and seeing people's reactions.

2 months agoI love the Peter whump (always) and the revelation that he's a teenager (another of my favorite story lines). Combine those with protective Deadpool, and it was lovely (in a very gory way, heh). Thank you for sharing it!

2 months agoThis is probably my favorite 'Hey guess what I'm actually a minor' fic I've read! I love when people like the Avengers or something find out how young Peter is and kinda freak out about it. This is so great I love it!
thelostcolony
2 months agoWade!!! Wilson!!! Caring about Peter is!!!! My entire life!!!Okay, right, coherency- coherency is important. This whole fic is wonderful- I love the idea that even though Deadpool flirts with everything that moves, he's still really passionate and protective about kids havin' their rights and stuff. As a teen myself, I can imagine being in Peter's position, and the little touches- the fact that he feels safer now than he did before, Deadpool's subtle changes in his behavior while still remaining very much the same, his cradling Peter when he called for him- it all just...it's just so good man. (Your story Safeguard does a good job of portraying all of this too!)I love the premise that supervillains have morals too- especially when kids are involved. So the fact that Karma pretty much fell apart when she realized it was a teenager was awesome and interesting and /so good/.Ack, Peter being taken care of is my life. All in all, well written, a lovely and fun read, and so much wonderful hurt comfort! Thank you for sharing!
Oceans_pebble
2 months agoLove this story, love the interaction. One quick note though, you have Deadpool teasing Spider-man with "incy-wincy" - as far as I'm aware, that's normally spelled "eensy-weensy" for the song. (I know, I'm a nit-picker. Sorry.)And Karma's reaction was fantastic.
biscuitlevitation
2 months agoThis! Is! Amazing!!!! I love Karma's guilt and Wade's protective side and him censoring himself for Peter is so adorable?? Also Pete's "frick" killed me dead.

2 months agoOne of the best Deadpool & Spiderman fanfics I've had the pleasure of reading! Love this, thank you for sharing such a lovely story!

2 months agoI absolutely love this. It's one of my favorites!The big reveal was so shocking it was awesome!Thank you!
altalemur
2 months agoi liked this. because kids and teenagers do get hurt a lot IRL and sometimes i like to see people like Deadpool kill/torture them in turn. Deadpool's violence and protectiveness are kind of cathartic. thank you for writing!

2 months agoThis is utterly amazing.Everything about this is, I don't even know how to say it.

2 months agoI love this!!! Deadpool having lines he won't cross and just being a nice guy to Spidey when he finds out his age makes my heart sing <3

EllipsisObsessed
2 months agoAwww excellent I love how you handled Wade in this, and how he transitioned to being more appropriate in his behavior towards Peter without being overly condescending etc. (I love spidypool as a pairing but only when Peter is appropriately aged up and even then there is a lot of risk of issues). Thanks for sharing ^^!-Ellipsis aka ...

2 months agoI love the weird line in the sand that is the age of 18.
Anonymous
2 months agoThere isn't ONE story of yours that I don't love. I love how you portray these characters! This is one of my favourite fics so far. I've always had the headcanon that if deadpool found out spidey was underage it would go somewhat like this! Keep up the great work! Can't wait to read more!
Shianelle
2 months agoPainful, but satisfying. I would love to see Karma afterwards, trying to make up for what she did by going against the superillains that hurt Peter, kinda like saying 'Forgiveeeee meeeee! I'm making it up to you!' in a kinda terrifyingly batshit way, and Peter's all 'Gross. Stop it. Just...go far, far away from me crazy-lady, like, Antarctica is too close.' and the villains he normally fights running away from him instead of fighting because they know that even if they win, crazy Karma's gonna be after then to give them a giant can of whoop-ass. Preferably with lots of frustrated!Peter, and ridiculously-amused!Deadpool who keeps luring in supervillains to fight Peter just so he can watch the carnage afterwards.

2 months agoThis was awesome! Karma really is a bitch, unless you're under 18...

2 months agoGood oneshot.Damn.The tension...just...watching the scene play out...argggg.Good and terrible.I loved Peter's reaction when he learned of their "rule."And protective!Wade is my favorite.

2 months agoNope, he doesn't.I love it.Thank you infinitely much.
shadowkan_shai
2 months agoI really love your story and how you depict Deadpool !Yes, he's crazy but I think that he had such a crappy childhood, that kids are sacred for him and he will protect them no matter what.I'm french so the age of consent in a sexual relationship is 15, so I'm not weirded out by the age difference between Wade and Peter, if it's consensual and if there is respect : I am all for it !!I also really like the "Happy meal scene" , I was rolling on the floor, laughing, Deadpool wants the barbie doll : it is very Deadpool !I want to write more about your fic,but I'm afraid my english isn"t very good (it's like my fourth language), so sorry for the grammatical errors and thank you for your fic !
SherlollyRumbelleshipper07
2 months agoI will admit, I totally ship spideypool, but when he's an adult. Him with Wade at 16 is just creepy. Personally, I think Wade is kind of immortal, so the age difference wouldn't be a huge deal (more than likely Peter will always be the mature on), but only as long as Peter is legal. What I liked about this is the whole age reveal. I've always wanted to see a villain's response to his age, and I'm glad that Deadpool was the responsible adult. I hope you do more age reveal stories. It is so good.
CuriousKiris
2 months agoThis was a wonderful read. You took a great concept and really laid it out well. I like the way Deadpool became awkwardly protective, and Spider-Man had to struggle with both not wanting Deadpool to change or treat him differently, but also becoming more comfortable with him once he had.
ShadeShadow234
2 months agoYes this is great I feel a little bad for Karma though. Geez, poor lady. She had it coming though. I was grinning like a maniac when Spidey revealed his age. I swear, somethings wrong with me
Invisible_forcefield
2 months agoThis is perfect! Hurt!peter always gets me and your deadpool is awesome. (Love how he adjusts his behaviour for a teenager)

2 months agoI have So Many feelings about this story. Deadpool with his strict, fucked-up moral code is my favourite Deadpool, and his immediate recalibration is great.

2 months agoDAAAAAMN the lead-up and reveal of Peter's age was soooooo well done. The tension was A+! And Deadpool's reaction and how he handled finding out was such a gift. Thank you for writing!
