[fic: wicked love] Soooo, iirc, Peter does call Tony "Dad" in bed. Tony and Peter, if that's ok to ask, - how does that makes you feel? Does it make the situation more awkward? Does it hurt? Does it feel right? Is it a turn off or a turn on? And just generally i wonder if you've discussed this aspect of your relationship at all.

Peter: Oh-- we really didn’t talk about it? It’s just… he’s my dad. I don’t even think about it, really. It got to where it didn’t feel weird calling him ‘Tony’ when I was Spider-man, but that was… It felt different. He didn’t see me as his son then, and now he does. And I… I mean-- don’t take this the wrong way, but-- I like that he’s my dad? That part is important to me, too.

…But I don’t know. I do kind of… Things did feel different between us when I was Spider-man, and I kind of miss some of that? He cared about me, but he wasn’t... trying to take responsibility for me like he does as my dad. Maybe changing what I call him at home could help us get back to that, but-- I don’t know if that’s even possible, really…

Maybe I should ask him what he thinks about it.

Tony: He calls me that because I’m his dad. There’s not really any point to trying to pretend it’s anything other than what it is.

#fic: wicked love #wicked love: peter #wicked love: tony #ursa interlude:#I had them answer this one separately because they wouldn't be honest in front of each other #tony as always still requires further explanation #he both prefers that peter call him dad and would be resistant to changing it for the reason he said here #because he would see it as an attempt to hide from the reality of the situation #I joked on another post that if they ever roleplayed peter meeting wild young tony he would be super into it and then feel bad about it #for that reason of... of course it feels nice to roleplay something less complicated than what they have #but then that's not “”“taking responsibility”“” for it #so there's that like. self-hating aspect to not wanting to change it but then emotionally he also! loves peter as his son!#that relationship is super important to him! he doesn't want their romance to overshadow or subvert their familial one!#even if it was just an in-bed thing he doesn't want to deny their father-son bond out of a genuine emotional attachment to it either #so obviously the conflict there is that they CAN'T have a genuinely equal romance while they're both clinging to the familial tie as well #but while peter can feel the strain he's too young to realize how significant it is #and tony kkkknows but doesn't think the relationship will last long enough to justify jettisoning their father-son dynamic in favor of it #woof. big question!!!
