* AdaptationalJerkass: While Nick Fury in the films tended to do questionable things in the name of national security, here his actions border on Guantanamo-levels. He hijacks Peter's Europe-trip and starts throwing threats around when Peter refuses to cooperate with him, he does nothing to help Peter when Mysterio tries pining the London attacks on him, he botches a kidnapping a attempt on Matt Murdock that almost puts him in a coma, attempts to use him to recruit the Defenders into their initiative (an initiative that might be illegal considering SHEILD's legitimacy is suffering at the moment) and tries turning Matt into an Infinity Stone-detector despite Matt refusing to be a part of it.

** In "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/23944675 Rough Start]]", the Professor tries having his mutants students sign a document that admits their powers and has them sit in a section separate to his non-powered students. Peter responds by having his father form a class-action lawsuit for discrimination. When Peter tells the professor off to his face, the professor takes this as an admission and asks him what his powers are.
** In "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/23946115 Second Wind]]", Peter's college tries implementing rules and regulations that target mutants; pyrokinetics have to admit their abilities so that they could fire-proof their dorms (which is illegal for them to do), mandate medication to telepaths, ban telekinetics from all sports (claiming it falls under "enhancements" like steroids), etc.



* SadistTeacher: The Professor in "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/23944675 Rough Start]]" had a registration form that requires mutant students to provide a full-list of one's abilities and to sit in their own section away from regular human students, treating them as though they were "sex-offenders" as Peter describes it. While the Professor insists that he is just "making the transition easier", Peter calls him out that this is just a classic act of discrimination.

The show would further establish that they are also perfect for each other, the neighborhood painstakingly created down to its minute detail to house these virtuous souls. Eleanor, in contrast, is ''deeply'' flawed individual with a lifetime's worth of selfish deeds. Not only does being around people who are objectively better than her cause her to lash out at them, but her badness is a "hammer, just smashing and smashing" the "perfect watch" that is the neighborhood, causing mass panic and havoc. With Tahani, who is supposedly a real her perfection comes across as condescending and attention grabbing, but Eleanor gets to know the real her beneath her "perfect" facade and learns to be her friend. By the end of the season, it is revealed that all of the other humans are demons pretending to be perfect humans as a means of torturing the humans there.

''The Devil's in the details'' is a ''Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse'' fanfic series written by [=IsisKitsune=] where Peter Parker is the biological son of Matthew Murdock, better known as the Devil of Hell's Kitchen.

This fanfic series can be read on Website/ArchiveOfOurOwn [[https://archiveofourown.org/series/1704817 here]].
----
!!This fanfic provides examples of:
* ActorAllusion: In "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/23715655 Back in the Ring]]", Peter sarcastically refers to Matt as Batman, a reference to how Creator/BenAffleck, the actor who played [[Characters/DCEUBatman Batman]] in the ''Franchise/DCExtendedUniverse'', also played Matt Murdock in ''Film/Daredevil2003''.
* AdaptationalBadass: Having more experience under his belt than his counterpart (and being raised by a lawyer and vigilante), Peter is less of a doormat here. He is more confident as a solo-hero and feels less obligated to put up with the Avengers and SHEILD whenever either of them give him trouble, outright threatening Nick Fury when he tries strong-arming him into being involved with the Elemental attacks in Europe.

* CaughtOnTape: Having been raised by a lawyer (and being very clever himself), whenever Peter is backed into a corner, expect to have him secretly recording everything that was happening on his phone.
** When he first meets Tony, he has their conversation recorded to ensure that Tony can't strong-arm him into Avengers business (complete with a legally binding restraining order against him).
** In "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/23715655 Back in the Ring]]", Matt catches a loan company in the act of attempting to take May's home with a fraudulent mortgage loan claim allegedly signed by Ben after his death. When the manager attempts to get away with it by putting it onto a protracted in-company investigation, Peter reveals to having recorded the entire thing with threats to use it against him.
* TheCavalryArrivesLate: In "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/23717884 Meet and Greet]]", it isn't until Spider-Man, the Defenders and Frank Castle beat the alien killing machine (a type of enemy way above the level of back-alley criminals and supervillains they are accustomed to) do the Avengers show up to deal with the problem.
* DramaticIrony: In-canon, Spider-Man is portrayed as a {{Fanboy}} desperate to become a member of the Avengers with Iron Man keeping him at arms' length. Here it is the opposite, Tony trying to get him involved in the Avengers Initiative and getting a restraining order put against him in the process.
* TheDreaded: While Daredevil is feared by New York's criminal underworld, Matt Murdock has become famous as the lawyer that took down Wilson Fisk, making any institution guilty of anything nervous whenever they realize who he is.
* ForWantOfANail:
** Having lived with Matt -- an enhanced vigilante and a lawyer -- for most of his life, Peter here follows a procedure the moment he meets Tony Stark. When Tony tries involving him in hero business, Peter starts recording their conversation and May calls Matt who immediately puts to stop to any plans of his "internship". Because of this, Peter is left uninvolved with the [[Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar Civil War]] (including the iconic airport scene) or anything involving Tony directly.
** Spider-Man stopping the Vulture's sale on the Staten Island ferry is accompanied by Deadpool. Despite the havoc Deadpool causes, Vulture's plot is stopped prematurely and the ferry isn't split in-half like in ''Homecoming''.
** Not only to the Defenders meet regularly (both in and out of vigilante business), but at some point Frank Castle became a member.
** Being Daredevil's son and unaffiliated with the Avengers on any level, Spider-Man is instead an unofficial member of the Defenders.
** The events of ''Far From Home'' occur before the events of ''Infinity War'' and ''Endgame'', Tony still alive at this time.
** Despite Peter having little to no interactions with Tony, he still made him an admin allowed to used EDITH.
* FusionFic: While the fanfic is very much about characters from the ''Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse'', a lot of elements are welded from the X-Men franchise as well, including the Murdock Family's association with Deadpool, the existence of mutants and Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters.
* GlorifiedSpermDonor: Matt did not even know that he had a son until after Peter's mother and step-father's tragic deaths, and even then he left it to Ben and May to decide when Peter knew who his real father was. Peter did not find out that [[LukeIAmYourFather "Uncle Matt" was actually his real father]] until he read it from a note Ben left for him before his own death.
* InSpiteOfANail: Despite Peter's non-existent affiliation with Stark Industries, Happy and May still wind up dating.
* IResembleThatRemark: In "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/23717884 Meet and Greet]]"...
--> '''Peter''': Dad, you are one vindictive son of a nun...\\
'''Matt''': Guilty as charged
* MythologyGag: Whenever Matt isn't available, Peter would have Karen Page forward messages for him. What makes this ironic is that Peter's canon-counterpart [[OneSteveLimit has an AI named Karen that does similar errands for him]].
* NoodleIncident: Despite the number of times Spider-Man asks his dad what "drunk-tank" he found Deadpool in, we never find out how they know each other or whatever tight-situation put Deadpool in Daredevil's debt.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: This version if Peter Parker is the step-son of Richard Parker, Peter having been conceived in his mother's brief relationship with Matt Murdock -- AKA Daredevil -- during college.
* SpySpeak: In "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/23699584 Settling Debts]]", Peter passes along a message to Matt via Karen about busting the Vulture's sale of weapons on the Staten Island ferry as "new friends in town" that are "throwing a party" with "party favors", as well as "new toys" being sold at a "swap meet."
* StrawmanNewsMedia: In "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/23741089 Excommunicado]]", Peter manages to undo Mysterio's attempt at pinning Peter for the attack on London by accusing the Daily Bugle of posting an altered video accusing him of being a terrorist without fact-checking, basically putting a target on a ''minor''. While Peter ''is'' Spider-Man, the various points he make are legit enough for suspicion to be thrown off of him and get the Daily Bugle in trouble. The fact that Peter still has the stubs to photographs he took of himself as Spider-Man at street level is only more damning on the Daily Bugle's part. By the time it goes to court, Matt paints J. Jonah Jameson as a psychopath taking out a personal grudge against Peter (who is, again, just a teenager) by accusing him of being a superpowered terrorist.
--> ''"Peter, I know you can hear me. You're scared, a scared child, a scared child that just got accused of being someone with a lot of very powerful enemies. I need you to be smart about it. And you are very fucking smart."''
* ThisIsReality: In "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/23715655 Back in the Ring]]", Matt tells Peter that "This is real life, kid... not a comic book" when Peter sarcastically calls him "Batman."
* TimeSkip: While the events of ''Far From Home'' still happened, the series completely skips over it, Peter describing what happened to Matt in "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/23730154 Returning Home]]".
* YouJustHadToSayIt: In "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/23730154 Returning Home]]", Nick Fury tries getting Peter to help him with the Elemental attacks by calling it an Avengers level attack and later threatens the Defenders and his school group into cooperating. When all this does is make Peter want to hurt him, Nick caves and admits that they are in desperate need of his help, and only then does Peter agree to help.
--> '''Peter''': See, that's all you had to do, ask.
