Kidnapped without a home
Just your normal modern AU Spider getting kidnapped by Quaritch fic. But with a twist... That twist being Spiders sister, Esperanza "Leona" Socorro.
This fic is inspired by: 'Blood is thicker than water' by @cyren-myadd 'Custody' by @ao3gobi17

Can you guess which skateboard belongs to who?
Prologue
Thank youuuuuuu for sharing omg I LOVE the scene! I can see why they cut it out because it doesn't really impact the plot but I WISH they would make an extended cut with all the deleted scenes!
This scene shows how clever Spider is, he was purposefully jumping on branches and swinging on vines that he knew wouldn't be strong enough to hold the recoms and he just laughs at them when they fall while trying to copy him! Our boy was running circles around them!
And Quaritch was lowkey stressing about how they were making him look in front of his kid "GET YOUR ASS BACK UP HERE š”š”š” you're embarrassing me in front of Spiderš„ŗš„ŗš„ŗ"
GUESS WHAT BESTIES!!????
OUR SON IS BAAAACK!!!!!!š¤š¤š¤š¤š¤

Which recoms do you think Spider bonded with the most? What would some of their interactions look like? Would Spider ever try to pry embarrassing information about Quaritch from them, would he ask about his mom, or just joke around?
I've seen a lot of fanfics, both AUs and canon universe, that expand on Spider's relationship with the other recoms, and that's really great and fun to explore, especially when Wainfleet becomes like an uncle to him.
But to be completely honest, if we're talking canon to the story of Avatar, I don't think Spider really had much of a relationship with any of the recoms other than Quaritch even though he did spend a lot of time with them. At the end of the movie, when Wainfleet shot Neteyam, Spider was running right next to him, and Wainfleet didn't seem to care if he hit him at all. Then after Neteyam's death, there's another brief scene where Wainfleet has a clear shot at Jake, but Spider is standing in front of him and would get caught in the crossfire. Wainfleet was ready to shoot Jake even if it meant hitting Spider too, and he only stopped because Quaritch told him to. And then right after that, Spider showed Jake where to ambush the recoms on the boat with zero hesitation. Spider didn't kill any recom himself, but his help made it a lot easier for Jake and Neytiri to almost wipe out the whole squad.
They spent months with each other, but when it came down to it, Spider and the recoms were willing to kill each other. Quaritch was the only exception, and even then, he had a long moment of hesitation before he could admit to himself that he did love spider more than he hated Jake. So even though in the og script and deleted scenes, we see Spider make fun of the recoms a little bit, I don't think Spider ever got comfortable enough with them to joke around or ask about such a sensitive topic like his mom.
Sorry if this is a boring answer, but I'm trying to stick to canon. And even though I don't think it's realistic to canon, I still LOVE fics that flesh out the recoms' relationship to Spider more! Fics are for bending canon anyway!
Hear me out šš

manifesting more lyle tit shots in the third movie šš» (JAMES PLEASEDJFJ)
i just noticed this mistake and never saw someone else point it out, so i feel obglitated to do it now
lyle has shorts on during the whole final battle
but when he looks for spider, lo'ak and neteyam after they escape (more or less š„ø) he suddenly decided to wear long pants
he takes over my thoughts everyday this is nOT NORMAL ANYMORE
i sometimes laughed while making these
part one part two part three part four part five
he looks so kissable here
lyleās wedding vows to quaritch:
uhmmā¦ i uhh, fuck meā WHAT WHO SAID THAT??
he shouldāve taken them gloves off more often bruh
lyle-only-version, because heās the love of my life
quick shout-out to @recomblu for the idea :))
lyle had to double check kiriās hand šš
