——————————————

After the first meeting of the Avengers Council, Professor Xavier didn't speak to Peter for a week. Peter tried to contact him but later decided to give the man some space to think for a while.

That didn't last long as Peter noticed that this plan was going nowhere and decided to be persistent. He bothered the hell out of Charles, who cracked after a couple of weeks and returned to the Avengers tower for a much more calm and orderly meeting than the last.

During the time that he was annoying Professor X into coming back to the council, Peter had about 10 more encounters with Logan, who attacked him instantly for the first 5 of them.

After beating Logan into unconsciousness 5 more times, Peter decided to deploy a new strategy for dealing with him.

-Flashback-

After beating Logan for the sixth time that week, instead of knocking him out, as usual, Peter tied him up in web and forced Wolverine to hang out with him.

Once Wolverine was tied up, Peter dragged him to the living room and dropped Logan on the couch.

"What do you want to watch?" Peter asks as sits next to him and kicks his feet up, grabbing the remote to flip through the channels.

"Let me go!" Logan shouts as he shakes side to side, trying to break free.

"I'll just pick..." Peter mutters as he ignores the angry man beside him and puts on Jerry Springer, which seemed to only anger the man further.

"I knew he was the father..." Half an hour in, Peter started making small talk with Logan.

They watched TV for almost two hours before Peter had to get home, leaving an angry Wolverine tied down on the couch with Wheel of Fortune on the flat screen.

Peter repeated this treatment for his next few visits to Professor Xavier's mansion. It got to a point where Logan started avoiding him because watching TV with Peter was worse than losing a fight. At least he enjoyed fighting, losing or not.

Of course, Peter wouldn't allow him to get away. After he was done bothering Charles about rejoining the council, Peter would hunt down Logan and force him to hang out and watch TV.

This got to a point where a sort of friendship formed between the two.

"He has to be the father." Logan says as he and Peter watch another episode of Jerry Springer.

"No, look at the baby's eyes. Neither of the parents has blue eyes. It's not his." Peter points out with a shake of his head.

"Look at the nose, you idiot! They're exactly the same." Logan yells and gestures to the TV with his free hand.

By this point, Peter didn't need to tie Wolverine up in order to watch TV anymore. He would still have to find him, but after that, Logan would 'reluctantly' come to hang out.

"In the case of baby Stacy. Nick, you are... NOT the father!" The host of the show announced, causing Peter to smirk victoriously in Logan's direction.

"Told you..."

-Flashback End-

Peter didn't expect to become friends with Wolverine, as their past meetings have been filled with nothing but fights. At some point, Peter thought that this world's Logan was a lot more animalistic than his movie counterpart, but that wasn't the case.

They just seemed to have a bad first encounter, which devolved into a grudge that Logan formed against him. Peter didn't help either as he goaded Wolverine on during almost every encounter.

Back to the Avengers, Peter delayed their first meeting until Charles returned. When he finally did return, they mainly talked about future plans and recruits.

Those future plans unfolded in the many months that passed since then.

The Avengers tower was renovated and the bottom half was allocated toward Stark Industries, while the top half became the official headquarters of the Avengers.

Since they were a fairly small organization, they didn't bother expanding further than the Avengers tower. At least for now.

The Avengers Headquarters has a bunch of sections that were perfectly planned out by Peter and Tony.

First, there are the apartments that take up multiple floors. These apartments are about normal size but they come with the latest in home tech, design, and a view that anyone would pay millions for in this city.

The apartments are for those that join the Avengers and are either visiting from out of town or simply have no home of their own. Though after the first-months paycheck, any Avenger could easily afford to rent a high-end apartment.

They're also for the future Avengers that come to America for training. They would be given an apartment for the duration of that training before heading back to their home country upon completion.

Every council member currently has their own penthouse apartment as well, so they could come live in the tower whenever they wanted to.

However, the only one to move in beside Tony was Magneto. Fury was all over the place with his Shield duties. Peter has Aunt May to live with and a secret identity to keep and Charles had a school to run.

Other than the Apartments, the tower has a giant cafeteria with some very well-trained and accomplished chefs running the show. Only the best for Tony Stark after all.

Then we have some meeting rooms followed by the Council room where the Avengers council has their important assemblies.

Followed by that is the training floors. Since Peter emphasizes how important it would be to properly train their members before allowing them into the field, Tony took that seriously and went all out when purchasing training equipment and allocating space.

Tony made sure to add some fun and leisure areas as well. The Avengers have their own bowling alley, basketball quarter, Olympic swimming pool, game rooms, and more.

Since all of this would have to be maintained, Tony and Peter spent some spare time creating specific robots to clean and fix things should they be needed.

An army of Roomba-like machines to both vacuum, mop, and polish the floors. Self-cleaning windows, sort of like how windshield wipers on cars work, but far more effective and complicated.

If it needed cleaning, Peter and Tony found the perfect robot or machine to get the job done. They did this to avoid the need for a staff of employees to maintain everything, as at least 1% of that staff would most definitely be there to spy on them.

As the tower was being renovated, Fury brought in the two Shield Agents that he talked about wanting in the Avengers.

Those being Natasha and Clint Barton, also known as Hawkeye. These were some of the few members of Shield that Fury still trusted, and he wanted to keep them close by.

During their first appearance together, Tony had a rude awakening.

-Flashback-

"You can't be serious..." Tony mutters in dread.

"I'm afraid that training is mandatory for all Avengers that want to do field work." Peter says, getting a nod from every council member in the room.

"Don't worry." A handsome white man with brown hair and eyes says with a disarming smile. "I'll go easy on you... at first."

He stands next to Natasha with black combat clothes and a bow and arrow draped over his shoulder.

[Insert picture of MCU Hawkeye here]

Clinton Barton is an extremely skilled marksman and a special agent of Shield. He's known for his use of the bow and arrow as his primary weapon and an extremely keen eyesight and accuracy that earned him the codename Hawkeye,

"Why am I the only one getting forced to do this? What about you guys!" Tony points the finger at his fellow council members.

"Well, I'm already being trained by Natasha here." Peter says as he gestures toward his beautiful trainer. "As for the rest, Fury has more training than he needs and the other two are a bit old for combat training. Charles can't even walk after all."

Tony couldn't find a single word to argue against Peter's logic, so he just stood there brooding about his impending muscle ache.

"Don't bother using your Iron Man suit as an excuse either." Peter says, not giving Tony a single inch to form an argument. "Without it, you're nothing but a smart walking meat bag. You need to know how to defend yourself without the suit just in case."

"Yeah, don't worry. It won't be that bad." Clint says with an excited look on his face.

He gets to train the famous Tony Stark personally so Clint was looking forward to seeing the spoiled billionaire go through his hellish boot camp.

"Web-head, I don't like the look on his face..." Tony says as a frightening shiver runs down his spine.

"Eh, you'll be fine."

-Flashback End-

Tony hated every minute of his training in the beginning, as he never worked out to this degree before, so the soreness and combat injuries were truly excruciating.

After a couple of weeks, Tony started getting used to the new addition to his schedule and the soreness wasn't as bad as it was at the start.

He didn't love the training and he probably never would, but Tony could get through it without constantly whining about everything now.

Luckily for him, Tony has no superpower that needs training, so he only had to learn martial arts and a few other skills before his time with Hawkeye came to an end.

Although the other council members were excused from the physical training, they were not excused from the learning portion of that training.

Each member of the Avengers, new or old, is given a sort of rule book, outlining how they should handle most situations. They don't have to follow every rule perfectly, as each situation would branch off into infinite possibilities.

The book mainly mentions the need for preservation of life, protection of innocent civilians, teamwork, public image, and much more.

Peter wanted to be sure that everyone understood as some people needed these obvious things outlined for them.
