How It Should Have Been - a Dadcliffe / Holden Radcliffe lived to see his son get a happily ever after social media au requested by @holdendadcliffe

(send me a social media au prompt)

[giveamadeuschohisownmovie]

Plot twist that won’t actually happen but I’ll flip out if it actually does:

David O’Hara’s Alistair is set up as Fitz’s father. However, it’s all a trick. 

It’s revealed that while Fitz’s mom and Alistair were together, Fitz’s mom was secretly seeing Holden Radcliffe on the side. The plot twist is that Radcliffe is Fitz’s biological father. That’s why Alistair left Fitz when he was young, he found out about the affair. That and he’s a completely abusive asshole who was ruining the marriage. 

Also, Radcliffe knows about this but is keeping it a secret because Fitz’s mom doesn’t want Fitz to know about it. However, he can’t help but say stuff like, “You were like a son to me!” and “My boy!”. Like he knows he can’t say it but he desperately wants to. 

Gives a whole new meaning to Radcliffe-LMD saying, “I knew your father.”, doesn’t it?

Can Holden Radcliffe be redeemed?

Bad things he did (summarised):

once existed around the abusive nazi bitch who doesn't deserve a name or the word 'father' and made no known attempt to strangle him

got stabbed in the eye by Jemma Anne Simmons and didn't say thank you

was a creepy transhumanist with weird bird eyes

created primitives which almost killed Yoyo and made Fitz one of them

helped Hive almost enslave everyone

thought creating an android who acted human was a good idea

treated Aida pretty badly which was part of the reason she went evil

caused Fitz to lie to Jemma

kidnapped May

lied to everyone

used and manipulated the closest thing he had to a son

messed with Philinda by making LMD May

abandoned LMD May once she'd outlived her usefulness

abducted Fitz, Coulson, Mack and Mace and put them in the framework

sent LMDs to the base to execute all inhumans just to please the Russian

directly or indirectly caused almost every event of 4x15

indirectly caused the deaths of Mace, Davis and Prince

Things that make him redeemable:

has a name that is very easily turned into Dadcliffe

he seemed to genuinely care about Fitz and the rest of the team

he really wanted to avoid killing people

the Darkhold corrupted his mind

actually loved Agnes

made a speech to framework Fitz basically declaring how much he shipped Fitzsimmons

called Aida a 'sadistic witch' like an absolute legend

told Daisy where the back door was

completely roasted the abusive nazi bitch

saved Jemma from being shot

saved Fitz from himself

rescued Yoyo

comforted her about Mack

kept trying to get her and Mack through the back door even though he knew it was too late for himself

died a peaceful death accepting that immortality would have probably sucked anyway

[youhaventtriedthisone]

Once someone posted and idea about Agnes being pregnant when she died in the Framework and I will never be able to stop thinking about that. So here’s a crappy AU. Because tears.

Leo & Jemma: Check Yes Juliet

Jemma Simmons is the perfect daughter of world renowned SciTech CEO, Timothy Simmons. She gets perfect grades, dresses appropriately, never misses curfew and always does as she’s told. 

Leopold “Fitz” Radcliffe is the troubled son of world renowned independent biotech scientist, Holden Radcliffe. Ever since the accident at a friend’s birthday party when he was a child that nearly resulted in him drowning, he hasn’t been the same sweet, lively boy that he once was. He dabbles with drugs, runs with the wrong crowds, drinks at every available opportunity and flirts like his life depends on it.

Jemma meets Leo when he gets transferred to her private school (after he was expelled from his last one). Whatever incident that occurred to get him kicked out has made his already troubled psyche even worse, to the point where his depression makes it impossible for him to reach out and befriend anyone - until Jemma Simmons sweeps into his life and offers to help him with his chemistry homework. He doesn’t really need it, but he accepts the help just the same - if only to have someone to talk to.

When Timothy finds out that his “perfect” daughter has been spending time with Holden Radcliffe’s infamous delinquent son, he’s furious. He won’t have his Jemma, the future face of SciTech Industries, getting caught up with an influence like Leopold Radcliffe. Of course, when he tells her this it only makes Jemma all the more determined to be Leo’s friend.

Continuing their friendship in secret, Jemma frequently sneaks past her parents to the front door or climbs out her bedroom window at night to run off with him. The longer that things go on, the more their relationship progresses from innocent study sessions - to make out sessions in the back of his car - to getting drunk and skinny dipping in Leo’s neighbor’s swimming pool. It’s a whirlwind forbidden romance, and they know that if Jemma’s father finds out they’ll be in hot water. But, for once in her life, Jemma couldn’t care less about what her father thinks.

“Run, baby, run; don’t ever look back. They’ll tear us apart if you give them the chance. Don’t sell your heart, don’t say we’re not meant to be. Run, baby, run; forever will be... you and me.”

Though, poor Fitz. He was quite down in the dumps afterwards. But had to protect myself, switch to the long game.

Dadcliffe LIVES

Below are my theories on the Fitz/Radcliffe relationship.  Throwing them up here because, why not?

• Fitz absolutely knows that Radcliffe is his dad, has known from the start. Radcliffe doesn’t know that Fitz is his son. I think he’s kept this a secret for a couple of reasons:

o His mom warned him that his dad was not a good person.  If she left him before he knew she was pregnant (or at least before she gave birth), she must have had a good reason. o Radcliffe wasn’t exactly a good guy when we first met him, so Fitz probably had good reasons for being wary and building the relationship slowly.  He didn’t want to show all his cards too early.  

• Aida is modeled after someone names Agnes.  Agnes is Fitz’s mom.  (Perhaps his mom was using a different last name, or changed her maiden name after she left Radcliffe.) Aida would be a younger and idealized version of Agnes. So, Fitz’s surprise in 4x01 wasn’t just because of a naked lady, but a younger, model-esque version of his own mother.

o What about Jemma, wouldn’t she know that Aida looks like Fitz’s mom? Maybe not.  Nowhere in cannon has it been shown that Jemma has ever met Fitz’s mom, or that he’s talked about her with Jemma. If he didn’t want to talk about it with her, I imagine Jemma would’ve respected his wishes. o Per cannon, we only know for sure that Ward has seen the pic of Fitz’s mum, and Fitz has only mentioned her twice, to Koenig and Coulson.

• At least twice there’s been references/comments to Radcliffe having sex with Aida, which he’s always denied, but why even bring it up that way unless you wanted to infer that Radcliffe had a physical relationship with Aida’s inspiration, aka Agnes.  

• If Aida looks like Mama Fitz, it would give Fitz another reason why he saw the android as a she.  It would be hard to separate the person from the machine.  Also explains his (imo) overreaction to Aida 1.0’s decapitation.  He’s not just seeing Aida being destroyed, but his own mother.

•Explains why it doesn’t bother him when Aida calls him Leopold in 2x09. Only his mom calls him by his first name (except Jemma when she’s mad).

• If we are getting confirmation, it’ll be 4x13, “Boom” : “Meanwhile, Coulson and Mack come face-to-face with Radcliffe’s inspiration for Aida.” As of right now, we don’t know how this will happen, but bonus points if Fitz is part of this story line. We’ll possibly know more when we get promo pics/video.
