Fics like A "Happy" Medium

Peter’s hand stilled on his fries, and he looked down, studying the paper wrapper on the dingy plastic tray. It occurred to him, then, just how true Happy’s words rang. Tony would show he cared in these grand gestures, in the things he’d build and plan and anticipate, but never in the simple words Peter thought would make it feel real. Growing up, May and Ben were polar opposites— they didn’t have the money or the materials for the grand gestures, but Peter had never doubted he’d been loved, in the simplest profession of words. Tony was… not like that, not in the slightest. It felt as though Peter were trying to read a different language entirely, attempting to parse the deeper meaning without even having a basic grasp on the vocabulary. OR: Happy Hogan, serving as the in-between for a stubborn eccentric genius friend he's known for decades, and the recently acquired Spider-kid he's taken a begrudging fondness to; forcing them to reconcile their differences and talk to each other about their similarities, rather than stubbornly bottling everything up. (AKA: helping them find a happy medium, if you will.)
