Summary
Once they’ve sat down, it takes Danny about three seconds to blink at Matt, and, incredulous, ask: “What are you?”
Matt says, “A lawyer.”
Jessica snorts. “More like a weirdo with a leather fetish and a martyr complex.”
“Yes,” Matt agrees, “I am catholic.”
(Or: Matt's not normal, but what else is new. Adding more superpowers to the list isn't that big a deal, right?)

Pepper purses her lips.
“Oh my God.”

Summary
Then again, it never really mattered, did it? Because he was Pete Mitchell: the son of a drunken military deserter whose own inabilities to follow orders had gotten him and his entire squadron killed, and a woman who had overdosed on pills while wallowing in her own grief. He was unwanted, untouchable, unlovable. No matter what he did, no matter how hard he tried, he always got the short end of the stick, and it hadn't taken him more than a few months in the system as only a toddler to accept that.
or:
What originally started out as 5 times Pete was denied affection and the 1 time he got it but quickly grew into a 27,000 word monster of Pete Mitchell finally finding the love he deserves.
