Summary
Tim is five years old when he drowns in his parents' pool. He dies quietly, waiting for parents who love him, but will never be there, to realise that something is wrong. They never show up, and he sinks into oblivion.
When he wakes up and claws his way out of the water, the sun has set, and the lights of his house are on. He is cold and wet and his lungs burn.
But most of all, Tim is alone.
(If you die and no-one is there to see it, were you ever alive in the first place?)

Summary
For the first time in two years, captured through cameras and preserved for the rest of time, Spider-man didn't pull his punches. He didn't calculate his strength.
Spider-man let loose.
He was going 100%.
And as he did, the world goes quiet.
Or: how it finally hammered home for Steve that saving the people was just as important as saving the world
Though I recommend reading the first two parts, What it takes (to be a hero) and Making of a hero for a backstory, this can be read as a standalone.
Series
- Part 3 of What makes a hero?
- Part 36 of Angel's Marvel One-Shots and Fics
