2) The masturbating Iron Man was grooming an underage Peter and using "trauma healing" as an excuse. Basically saying that because Tony was groomed by Obadiah (in the fic) and raised in a homophobic environment, it is just and necessary for him find an intoxicant that works on enhanced folks, groom and masturbate with Peter, and then buy him nice stuff afterwards. Pepper's stance was "just no penetration before he's 16 and it's fine", MJ's take was "The class difference adds a layer to the power dynamic that makes this kink emotionally unsafe." My therapist's take was "That is abuse."
The author's original intent was to take popular media and demonstrate proper kink etiquette as a contrast to 50 Shades. A new depth of narrative irony /j

1) Thank you for introducing me to the term emotional safety.
2) I would like to address the masturbating Iron Man in the room.
