History Fanfic / TheWebOfTheSpiderMan

''[[https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/the-web-of-the-spider-man-quest.695368/ The Web of The Spider-Man]]'' is a ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'' Quest Fic written by Creator/{{gorilla_fingers}} (of ''Fanfic/MyHuntsmanAcademia'' fame) on Website/{{Spacebattles}}. Placing the reader into the shoes of one Peter Parker, it's up to you to guide the once powerless teen on his road to becoming an amazing superhero... while also [[WakeUpGoToSchoolSaveTheWorld keeping his grades up]], [[SociallyAwkwardHero maintaining some semblance of a social life]], and making ends meet as a growing, [[HormoneAddledTeenager hormonal teenager]] with superpowers [[HowDoIShotWeb he doesn't entirely understand.]]

** Ned Lee is a combination of [[Characters/SpiderManHomecoming Ned Leeds]] and [[Characters/UltimateSpiderMan Ganke Lee]], combining the two's names as well as their role as Peter's closest confidant.

** Peter describes his adhesive abilities as "[[VideoGame/SpiderManShatteredDimensionss stick'em powers]]".

* LuxuryPrisonSuite: It's acknowledged that the prison Walter Hardy/The Cat gets sent to isn't so much a ''prison'' as a forced retirement. He's in with the white collar crooks, has a decent amount of freedom and privilege, and is there because the Big Man was doing him a favor after his decades of work. Of course, Walter himself doesn't see it this way, as he ''insists'' that he's the absolute best irreplaceable thief in New York, and can't stand to ''not'' be out there plying his trade.

* NerdGlasses: Peter had big, round Literature/HarryPotter-esque glasses prior to the spider-bite.
* ObfuscatingDisability: Downplayed. In order to ensure no one knows how much he's changed, Peter still wears his glasses (now with clear lenses) carries his inhaler and wears baggy clothes.

* ParentalSubstitute: Peter's Aunt May and Uncle Ben have been taking care of him for as long as he can remember after the deaths of his parents. They're nothing but kind and patient with him and love him dearly as the last living reminder of his parents' legacy.

** Black Cat is a variation. Since she mostly commits crimes for the thrill (her father had already made enough money to last her a lifetime once he lands in prison), she has little personal investment in them and likes to turn them into games with Spider-Man. If he wins, she'll simply leave with no hard feelings. This agreement is noted to have given her considerable rep in the criminal underworld, because she's faced Spider-Man ''repeatedly'' and not ended up in jail.

** They notice that Daredevil seems to be trained and know a lot about police procedure, but they think he's a former cop who got fired for PoliceBrutality instead of a lawyer with outside martial-arts training and minor superpowers.
** For Spider-Man, they think that Peter is an athlete, instead of a scrawny nerd who happened to get super strength from an accident.

* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: Peter and Frank both get frustrated when Warren Hardy gets away via grapple gun.

* UngratefulBastard: Warren Hardy (Black Cat's father) is angry at Peter for getting him caught. In context, the Punisher had just tracked him down and was going to kill him before Spider-Man intervened. His daughter Felicia lampshades it when they talk, noting that he should probably be grateful to be in jail with an injured foot rather than dead.

** Ned immediately compares Peter's powers to ComicBook/{{Superman}}, while Peter makes it his goal to develop his own gadgets to be a budget copy of Franchise/{{Batman}} with spider-powers.

** Black Cat doesn't blame Peter for her father being imprisoned (she recognizes that Peter was doing him a favor by saving him from the Punisher) like in ''WesternAnimation/TheSpectacularSpiderMan'', and WordOfGod is that she won't reject Peter's civilian identity out of hand like she did in the comics.

* PunchClockVillain: Black Cat is a variation. Since she mostly commits crimes for the thrill (her father had already made enough money to last her a lifetime once he lands in prison), she has little personal investment in them and likes to turn them into games with Spider-Man. If he wins, she'll simply leave with no hard feelings. This agreement is noted to have given her considerable rep in the criminal underworld, because she's faced Spider-Man ''repeatedly'' and not ended up in jail.

* ADateWithRosiePalms: When Peter falls asleep on the bus, Flash accuses him of staying up all night for some "late night browsing" on his phone. Peter denies this, but he can't say it ''never'' happened to him.
--> The ribbing was still ''really'' annoying though. What made it worse this time was that he wasn't all wrong. Y-You mean, of course he was wrong about what he was insinuating you were looking up, you'd never, well, you mean not never, like Uncle Ben said you were a growing young man and your body...

* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: Peter and Frank both get frustrated when Warren Harding gets away via grapple gun.

* SpiderSense: As the TropeNamer, of course Peter would get this as his first power. It manifests as an irritating buzzing and ringing in his ears that warns him of imminent danger, allowing him to react more quickly to threats that he cannot immediately perceive. It's an uncomfortable sensation described as having his own brain screaming at him while every hair stands on end and every muscle tenses up in preparation to move.

* StatusQuoIsGod: Subverted. The author has stated that he isn't going to use "Parker luck" as a handwave for keeping Peter in PerpetualPoverty. At the same time, Peter still has to make smart choices if he's going to stay ahead in school and earn cash.

* StarterVillain: The first criminals Peter catches are a trio of Enforcers, while the first supervillain he faces is the Vulture.

* MathematiciansAnswer: Felicia gives a few to Hobbie while at the Midtown High prom, after he recognizes her as the Black Cat and demands to know why she's dating the seemingly ordinary Peter Parker. [[ProperlyParanoid He's absolutely right to be suspicious]] and in thinking Felicia wouldn't go for normal guy, but she deflects by merely saying that she's there because Peter invited her and that she's dating him because he makes her happy. She leaves out that this is because he's Spider-Man and their most common dates double as attempted heists.
