Irondad fic ideas #118
Biodad AU where Howard Stark was a tad more reckless when it came to finding the super soldier serum, including and not limited to using himself as a lab rat (or baby Tony for extra angst)
Maybe it didn’t work, maybe the effects were too low level to make much difference (Tony did manage to survive open heart surgery in a cave with limited infection/healing time...). Either way, this is somehow passed down to Peter.
Peter was never meant to survive the spider bite. But for some reason he did, and the effects were a full blown super serum, with a couple arachnid qualities sprinkled in.
Bonus:
For angst: The other Avengers find out Peter is enhanced, and they assume Tony experimented on his own son.
For Fluff: Peter finally recovers from the sickness after getting bit, and both him and Tony find out about his powers because he underestimates his strength and breaks something big and important in the lab. Cue Peter tears and Tony trying to comfort his son while also wondering what the heck is going on
This fic idea was submitted by @knittyninja!
Additional thoughts from idkb:
@knittyninja gave us two options, but why not both!
Tony and Peter figure out that Peter has powers, and after lots of tears and comfort (for and from both of them) they also figure out why
Tony comes clean about his dad, Peter's grandfather, experimenting on him. Lots of complicated trauma and angst, though, because it looks like those experiments also saved his son's life (and possibly his own in Afghanistan)
When the Avengers learn about Peter's powers and assume the worst of Tony, Peter defends him. Because his dad is nothing like Howard
