And Its A Little Sad - Tumblr Posts
You know what’s sad that I just realized? I’m in the middle of writing a chapter from Tony’s POV in my Spider-Man fix it story, and I’ve made comparisons to how Tony and Peter are alike, because they are. I think the whole reason Tony really latches onto Peter is because he sees himself in him. He could have been Peter, had he lived a different life not having been born rich and with a father who wasn’t as absent as he was. I came to realize one more similarity though…that both Peter and Tony had watched their parents walk out the door not realizing that would be the last time they saw them. I wonder if that was another factor in Tony taking him on, because he knew all too well what it felt like to lose parents at a young age and not have that support. (With being Spider-Man. May and Ben were obviously there for him.)
