7	''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/35835691/chapters/89359219 Where the Sunlight Ends]]'' is a SliceOfLife crossover fanfiction between the ''Film/SpiderManTrilogy'', ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderManSeries'' and the ''Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse'', written by thelostcolony.
8
9	Following the events of ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'', Peter Parker ([[Creator/TomHolland One]]) is entirely alone. With a nonexistent past, unstable present, and uncertain future, he decides to fall back on the only thing he really knows: being Spider-Man, no matter the cost.
10
11	Meanwhile, Peter Parker ([[Creator/TobeyMaguire Two]]) returns to a world he no longer fully recognizes, with the desire to help his counterparts, even though they are worlds away.
12
13	Finally, Peter Parker ([[Creator/AndrewGarfield Three]]) decides he's not quite ready to let go of his brothers. So he throws on his lab coat, hunkers down, and (with the help of a few new friends) gets to work on finding a way to see them again.
14
15	But, as is often the case with any Peter Parker, life doesn’t often go to plan…
16
17	The story is on hiatus, with the last update being on March 5th, 2022.
18
19	!!''Where the Sunlight Ends'' contains examples of:
20	* AdaptationalExpansion: Peter Three's universe incorporates both [[Characters/MarvelComicsIceman Bobby Drake]] and [[ComicBook/AntMan Hank Pym]] as Oscorp employees and researchers, respectively.
21	* AdaptationalSexuality: [[https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/features/andrew-garfield-interview-under-the-silver-lake-kardashian-lgbt-spiderman-social-network-a8825126.html Taking inspiration from Andrew Garfield's ideas about where the character could go,]] Peter Three is openly bisexual, sharing a kiss with Bobby and briefly discussing their respective sexualities with him in Chapter 11.
22	* AirVentPassageway: {{Subverted}}; the air-vent that Peter One sleeps in during the time between the climax of ''No Way Home'' and that film's epilogue is cramped and uncomfortable, so Peter doesn't plan to use it for anything other than storage and sleep while he hunts for an apartment.
23	* BackFromTheDead: Thanks to Peter One's persistence, as well as the butterfly effect, [[Film/SpiderMan1 Norman]], [[Film/SpiderMan2 Otto]], [[Film/SpiderMan3 Harry]], and [[Film/TheAmazingSpiderMan2 Max]] end up surviving to the present day in their respective universes.
24	* CallBack: Both to ''No Way Home'' and ''Film/SpiderMan2'', when Otto [[spoiler: reveals the [[Film/IronManFilms arc reactor]]]], which he has been "saving for a special occasion":
25	--> The power of the sun.
26	--> ''I'm coming,'' Peter thinks, determined and elated and sure, and extends the palm of his hand.
27	* CanonForeigner: Marilyn Juárez seems to have been created specifically for this fic. However, Peter Three's Spider-Sense flares up to a low level whenever he sees her, so her exact identity is up in the air.
28	* ChekhovsGun: [[spoiler: The arc reactor that Otto took back to the Raimiverse in ''No Way Home'' comes back into play here, serving as a [[AppliedPhlebotinum potential energy source]] for his and Peter Two’s portal.]]
29	* DeconstructionFic: This fic serves as a mild one, diving into both the multiversal and personal consequences after the events of ''No Way Home''.
30	** Peter Two, upon returning to his own universe, immediately feels like an impostor because of how differently the other Peter's life has gone. Thankfully, both Harry and Mary Jane disabuse him of that notion.
31	** Catching Michelle at the Statue of Liberty serves as a SuperficialSolution for all of Peter Three's issues -- he is still hesitant to trust people upon returning home and refuses to make long-term friends for fear of hurting them. Bobby manages to break through this wall through sheer persistence.
32	** Even though Norman Osborn has been redeemed, the PTSD of facing the Green Goblin during the events of both the first ''Film/SpiderMan1'' and ''No Way Home'' still lingers in Peter Two and occasionally manifests in near-uncontrollable flashes of panic and rage. One chapter opens with Peter Two attempting to remind (and convince) himself that Norman Osborn isn't the Green Goblin any more, and later has him attempting exposure therapy. While this ends up going well, Mary Jane and Peter still have contingencies for if it doesn't.
33	* HowWeGotHere: The first nine chapters dovetail neatly into the ending of ''No Way Home'', with Peter One moving into his apartment and constructing his new suit before swinging off into the night.
34	* InSpiteOfANail:
35	** Despite Norman being cured in ''No Way Home'', Harry still adopts the New Goblin persona, albeit as a full-blown superhero.
36	** In Peter Three's universe, [[ILetGwenStacyDie Gwen Stacy is still dead]], which weighs heavily on Peter Three.
37	* LateArrivalSpoiler: The setup for this fic requires one to have knowledge of ''No Way Home'''s ending in order to understand all three Peters' individual situations, as well as Otto Octavius, Norman Osborn, and Max Dillon's appearances in the story.
38	* LaserGuidedAmnesia: Max and Norman do not remember the events of ''No Way Home'' because they were cured via methods that still would have worked in their universe. Otto is the sole exception because he was cured with [[AppliedPhlebotinum StarkTech]], which then interfaced with the AI in his tentacles. Therefore, his AI was able to retain the memories because it was working in tandem with the new inhibitor chip, and the memories transferred over to Octavius.
39	* MistakenForGay: {{Inverted}}. Peter Three assumes that Bobby is straight, based on Bobby's Instagram pictures depicting him drinking out with girls at a bar, but Bobby reveals he has a boyfriend, and the women are just his friends.
40	* ShoutOut: After going into a mild dissociative state, the conscious part of Peter One refers to itself as “Narrator-Peter” and the unconscious part gets the designation of “[[VideoGame/TheSims Sim-Peter]]”
41	* SpottingTheThread: Though Max's memories of ''No Way Home'' were erased, he still decided to dismantle and study the device that cured him. He quickly discovered it was made out of material that wasn't even on his universe's periodic table, so when Peter Three recaps the events of ''No Way Home'', Max is naturally inclined to believe his story.
42	* StatingTheSimpleSolution: Out of ideas and desperate for progress, Peter Three ends up breaking into Hank Pym's office to glean information about inter-dimensional travel. Marilyn catches him because she stayed late to finish up some work and points out that Peter could have just asked Pym for advice.
43	* ThatManIsDead: All but outright stated by Peter One in Chapter 12:
44	--> ''[When the suit is] on and his mask is in place he feels held together. Contained. A different person, like Peter Parker is gone and there's nothing but Spider-Man that remains.''
45	--> ''Which is true. Peter Parker'' is ''gone.''
46	--> ''There's only Spider-Man, who's a hero, and Pietruccio, who's seventeen and alone and only good for delivering pizzas. No Peter Parker to speak of.''
47	* TrueCompanions: In Peter Two's new reality, MJ, Harry, and Harry's wife, Liz, all form a close-knit superhero team.
48	* UnPerson: At one point, Peter explicitly mentions that Strange's spell at the end of ''No Way Home'' wiped his records from the face of the earth, leading him to take residence in one of the [[spoiler: Baxter Building's]] air vents while hunting for an apartment.
49	* WhamEpisode: A minor one in Chapter Six -- While staying in the vents, Peter overhears a heated conversation between the new owners of the building -- [[spoiler: [[Comicbook/FantasticFour a "Ben" and "Richards", who are embarking on a project involving space travel.]]]]
