None of it's as important as making sure you get to stay here with me, alright?"  He shook Peter gently -- more to get his attention  then to startle him.  "I'll talk to MJ for you if you want, but no, kid.  I know school's important but -- look, I'm not sending you out to the shark tank with blood in the water.  Ned and MJ can come over after school and bring your homework but -- I gotta draw the line here, Pete."  He turned fully towards Peter and cupped a hand around the teen's cheek.  "When I lost Jarvis - real Jarvis - I'd have given damned near anything to get a timeout from school.  I needed it.  Trust me when I say you need it too.  I'll keep your brain busy so you don't get bored but -- you don't need to spend the day answering the same damned questions about what happened, kid."  Tony's eyes fixed on Peter's, full of intense sincerity.  "If you trust me at all, please believe me on this one."</span></span>
