Samantha Summers didn't want to move from Oregon to go to some crumbling apartment in New York, not because of her mom or her newly attained position at Crystal Empire HQ. It was hard enough trying to figure out why she could generate light energy from her palms; completely changing her lifestyle to fit the standards of another school was another burden. The only interesting thing about it was the abundance of "abnormal people" that originated in New York, and they had all pretty much disappeared. Just a guy in a red and blue suit and occasionally Iron man.
Peter Parker didn't want to wait for Mr.Stark to call him up for another mission, or wait for the action to come to him for that matter. He'd quit every school-related group just to make room for his side-life, and he got nothing in return for it. Lots of people at school got suspicious or cynical of him, and his school life began a downward spiral towards the realm of boring. The new girl at school wasnt even enough to interest him...until he learned the reason behind the gloves she wore all the time.
Despite her reluctance to learn how her powers work, Peter knows an opportunity to have a sidekick when he sees one. He even offers to train her in the ways of crime fighting and selflessly gave her the incredibly awesome name of Firefly! Maybe if he could prove his ability as a leader, Mr.Stark would bring him along on missions more often! They could even be a cool, buddy cop duo-thing, if she trains hard enough!
What could go wrong?

Inspired by Spider-man: Homecoming!
Haven't even seen Homecoming, but this looks promising
Also, love the cover art; "Samantha's" giant scowl cracked me up a little.

Thank you!
Hm. Interesting start, at least.
Thank you for writing this. Spider-Man homecoming is probably my favorite super hero movie and, seeing it here is awesome! You have a very promising start here and I hope to see more soon.
8300483
At least that. :/
8300564
Thanks!
Summers, huh? She wouldn't happen to be any relation to certain X-men, would she?

I... would not be against that, even if FOX wants to be immature dicks and not work with Marvel.
Nah, I don't think we'll be getting the Skrulls in this universe. We'd need Super Skrull for that to work and FOX owns the film rights.
Also, Celest? Someone who has often given "make more friends" speeches to her daughter who is in fact the AU counterpart of Sunset Shimmer?
And as a little funny thing to mention, I looked up the time card clip for this and listened to it while reading in real time.
Consider this story tracked.
8309824
Oh, you're a tracker. 'kay.
8311723
Indeed I am.
Michele, so help me...
...please tell me she bought Avengers Tower.
Magic. *Snort snort*

She did indeed buy it, and Peter's going to have a funny reaction when he finds that out. I hope.
I hope Ned recovers soon. What is Spider-Man supposed to do without his man in the chair?
walks over to glass covered switch labeled GRAMMAR ALERT and breaks glass with small hammer before pulling switch
That name has no meaning to be in this part of the fic yet. Just thought I should point that out.

Me and my stupid, autocorrecting mind.
8328618
Eh, happens to the best of us.
Does Peter know what he's doing? Probably not.
8351155
From experience in being a teenager, I can safely say that I didn't know what I was doing. XD
Is this story dead?
Why do all of the best stories die...
8490007
Nope.
Spider-Man: Let it go, let it-
Samantha: No, God! No God please no! No! No! NOOOOOOOOO-

That conversation could've gone better instead of just throwing in the request of joining him
