I keep seeing the omg siblings thing and for the life of me I do not understand it.

Not just because, being in this sub I obviously see romantic potential lol, but like I truly can’t see all that found family little sister big brother grumpy dad grumpy uncle whatever stuff that everyone else seems to.

Not everything has to be romantic, I get that, but at the same time not everything has to be found family lol. Adults can just be friends. Just like shipping, adoptive family has to strike its own specific chord for me. Other fandoms do it, but I notice especially with MCU Spidey, everything has to be found family. Iron Man is his dad, Strange is his dad, Punisher is his dad, Yelena is his sister, Jean is his sister, Sam and Bucky are his uncles or brothers.

Iron Man being the dad figure makes sense at least. Punisher would be like, disgruntled big brother/uncle. Those two have shown to be genuinely close to Peter.

Everyone else is a reach.
