Peter von Doom AU
Peter was adopted by Richard and Mary Parker when he was just a baby. They adopted him from an orphanage where he had been dropped off, with no one knowing who his parents were or if they were even alive. He was left with a single note that just said his name was Peter and when his birthday was.
Everything then plays out as it does in canon with the eventual death or Mary and Richard, Peter getting taken care of by May and Ben, him getting bitten by a spider and developing powers, Ben dying and him deciding to become Spider-Man.
The difference is that, for some reason, one of the superhero teams (Avengers or F4) do a DNA test on him and oops, would you look at that, it pings him as the son of Victor von Doom.
Peter has an existential crisis because 1) he didn't know he was adopted and 2) his bio dad is one of the most terrifying villains there is. He's fought his dad on numerous occasions! He's thrown cars at his dad!
Doom eventually learns that he's got a son. He finds out that it's Peter but doesn't learn that he is Spider-Man and now he wants him to return with him to Latveria.
That's kinda it so far. I dunno, the idea just popped up in my head and it's been haunting me all day so I had to share it.

Why the fuck is ANYONE excited for Robert Downey Junior as VICTOR VON FUCKING DOOM??!
Regardless of the fact that Disney once again whitewashing a Romani character for the third time in a fucking row makes it an automatic fail.
There is exactly one good option that is automatically disqualified due to the amount of money being spent on him.
RDJ is getting an 80 MILLION dollar pay plus additional expenses PER MOVIE. Disney is gonna play him up as much as possible. Let's look at the options for him as Doom as I see it.
They play him as an evil Tony Stark variant. This will only lead to the worst, cheapest, "I just learned how to write" tier, bullshit drama you could possibly imagine. Peter going "OMG he looks just like Tony" is not good writing, it is trash.
They play him as Victor Von Doom. Why the fuck did they hire the actor who played their biggest character to play another character who has nothing to do with Tony? One Quip, one change in his tone, a single look at his face and the entire illusion is destroyed and you just end up confused that RDJ is back but not as Tony for some reason.
And again, regardless of the fact that casting a generic white dude to play a Romani character already disqualifies him, the only way this could possibly work is if he completely changes his voice to be unrecognizable, never shows his face once, and none of the characters comment on the fact that he looks like Tony. In which case they could have hired literally anyone else. They could have hired a voice actor and a stunt man and gotten better results.
This is the most desperate, dishonorable, bullshit casting choice I could have possibly imagined. And that's not even getting into how much this will utterly and irrevocably fuck over the Comics Doom for the sake of "Brand Synergy"
And if anyone tries to pull up What If? Iron Man Demon in an Armor or Infamous Iron Man, you clearly didn't actually read those fucking comics because I have and I know that they have nothing to do with this.

Summary: UltsTony saves himself from the brain cancer by becoming an AI...or so they think. File corruption becomes an issue / AI Tony ends up in a damaged Doombot. Doom may grow attached, Steve is not happy once he finds out.
fic: no happy endings by @mserm for @kiyaar (8.8k)
Tags: choose your own adventure, POV second person, unhappy ending, everything feels wrong and nobody is ok
Summary: AI Tony's greatest fear is that he'll be replaced by flesh-and-blood Tony. What will he do to stop it? That's for you to decide.
fic: hold me (like it's the last time) by @tinystark616 for @ralsbecket (3.8k)
Tags: hydra steve rogers, pining, angst with a happy ending, getting together, fix it, I mean first I made it worse and then I fixed it, sad AI tony, alternate universe - canon divergence
Summary: Hydra Cap attempts to convince AI Tony to stay with him with promises to make Tony real. Tony wants to be real, but he wants the real Steve back even more.

Summary: He lifts his hand, fingers hovering just over the slope of Tony’s nose and side of his cheek, blue light washing over it. There’s a hesitation there, in Steve’s eyes, as he inquires, “Can I touch you, or…?”
Tony can guess what Steve doesn’t have the heart to finish: Can I touch you, or will I pass through you like you were nothing?
fic: body and mind and sun by @dirigibleplumbing for @oluka (5.2k)
Tags: secret empire, hydra steve rogers, AI tony stark, AU - canon divergence, transhumanism, body horror, body modification, angst, dark, forced intimacy, ambiguous/open ending
Summary: Steve's engineering team insists that learning Stark's secrets is a waste of time. What can he offer Steve that they can't? Hydra has a spy in the resistance. They are on their way to completing the Cube. What more could he want?
He wants Tony.

Tags: Transhumanism, Comic Book Science, Getting Together, Angst with a Happy Ending, Time Travel, action/adventure elements, Coming of Age as an AI, Attempt at Humor, Philosophy, Existentialism, Time bullets, Identity Disability (sort of), tony is de-coma'd just before steve is de-HYDRA'd, Queer Themes, Civil War, Amnesia, Guilt, Betrayal, Post-Marvel Comic Event: Dark Reign (2008), Post-Marvel Comic Event: Secret Empire (2017)
Summary: The artificial intelligence called Tony Stark is in it way over his head. The “real” Tony Stark is isolating himself, trying to ignore his part in the Civil War and the Dark Reign that followed it; and Steve is falling into guilt over his part in the Secret Empire.
Tony has no history, and his human counterpart has too much. Somewhere between them, there might be a way forwards—for all three of the men in this shitshow.

fic: Similitude by @winnifredburkle for ves.larkinson (1.5k)
Tags: BDSM, armor kink, dubious consent, selfcest
Summary: Tony gives AI Tony control of an Iron Man suit. For sex purposes. It doesn't quite go how he expected.
fic: Eidolon by @kiyaar for @starvels (22.9k)
Tags: established relationship, threesome - f/m/m, intellectual strap sucking, a dead celestial is sometimes a home, consent issues cockwarming, electroplay, secret empire, civil war II, canon compliant, angst, alcoholism, wistful flesh hunger, transhumanism, not-a-fixit, unfixit

Spideytorch fanfic idea. Peter writes a thesis on molecular engineering that attracts the attention of Doctor Doom who, impressed by Parker's mind, seeks him out. They get talking and somehow Peter manages to befriend him. He has no clue how it happened but Doom for some reason finds him humorous and now they are buddies.
Johnny is jealous and convinced that this is just some ploy by Doom to get to the Fantastic Four while Reed is confused, and slightly hurt, that Peter managed to befriend Doom while he couldn't.
Idk, I just think it would be funny for Doom to see Peter's apartment, become so disgusted by his poor living conditions that he buys him a new one because 'no friend of Doom can be allowed to live like this'. He also doesn't approve of Peter dating Johnny, not because he's homophobic or anything but because he thinks Peter can do so much better. Tries to introduce him to other scientists or nobles from Latveria.
Doom: "Come on Parker, he can't even do quantum physics!"
Peter: "But-"
Doom: "There is a duke about your age back in Latveria that has a doctorate in chemical engineering that would be a perfect match for you. Not to mention that he's easy on the eyes."
