Summary
After six years of being in the foster care system, fourteen year old Peter Parker somehow managed to win an opportunity to meet his hero. The one and only Tony Stark.
“Not much of a talker is he,” Tony casually stated, making Peter stomach churn with unease. He had no idea where the man was going with his assessment and wasn’t really sure how to properly defend himself. Thankfully, he didn’t have to.“Peter has what they call selective mutism,” the social worker replied. “So, no. I suppose he’s not much of a talker.”
Tony leaned back in his chair and arched his eyebrow. “He doesn’t talk at all?”
“I’ve been his social worker for six years and I’ve never heard more than a peep out of him,” the social worker said, this time, turning towards Peter to offer him a reassuring smile.

Summary
They came for him when he was going to school. Of course they would; Peter has been late or absent from school many times, so it shouldn't be that much of a shock to people that he doesn’t show up again.
They came for him when he was walking a block to get to the subway, using the choice spot to not be seen by cameras.
They came for him, and they had him.
On the third day, he snapped.
Something happened during that final healing process, slower than normal due to the lack of food and water. His brain healed again, for the fourth time, and it would've been like the others, but then he couldn't remember.
Peter couldn't remember.When the Avengers do find him, homeless and hardened by his new life, the journey back to the way it was, to the way they were, is a long one.

Summary
“Peter?” Tony manages between huffs and puffs as he tries to catch his breath, his body shaking with adrenaline. The kid looks…well, not okay, but not like he’s on the verge of death, either. Tony wonders if Karen reported something wrong. He and the A.I. are going to have a very long reprogramming session if so, because if she scared him out of his wits for a minor concussion, he’s going to be very upset.
But then Peter’s gaze lands on Tony, and his eyes widen in fear. He skitters backward, pressing himself against the wall of the building behind him and making himself small.
Tony starts forward, confusion wrapping around him. “Pete, what’s—”
Peter’s breath hitches fearfully. “Who—who are you?”

Summary
Transient global amnesia is a sudden, temporary episode of memory loss that can't be attributed to a more common neurological condition, such as epilepsy or stroke. During an episode of transient global amnesia, your recall of recent events simply vanishes, so you can't remember where you are or how you got there.
Peter Parker is only six year's old, enjoying a birthday party. But he doesn't remember why he's there anymore, or why his hand is all red and swollen. He just wants his dad, and Tony Stark wants his son to be alright.

“Oh, bud” Tony’s voice is soft and gentle. “Does it hurt too much? You’re being really brave, this is nothing dad can’t ...““Daddy, why are we in the park?” Peter asks again. As he had forgotten why his hand hurt, he had stopped crying; but now, Peter’s eyes became wet again. “Daddy – daddy w-why are we-e in the pa-park?”

Summary
When Peter wakes up on a battlefield, he doesn't remember anything.
He didn’t want to open his eyes- the world was too bright- but he needed to see around him. He wrenched them open with an effort and moaned; a hand grabbed his face and turned him so he was facing someone. “Are you Tony?” he asked, trying to focus on the brunette in front of him and not the daggers the sunlight was sending him.
“Am I Tony? Kid, that’s not funny,” maybe Tony said sharply.
