Parkner for the OTP thing??? I like your others ones but I’m curious about ideas for this now that you’ve added on with PeterNed (god Tier ship)
Coffee shop AU: Who is the barista, and who frequents the coffee shop?
Harley actually owns his own coffee shop, and he is fairly sure that the guy who always comes in around his age is half the reason Bean There, Drank That is still open. (Well, that and Tony won’t stop name-dropping it casually in every interview.)
Peter comes into the shop at first because Tony recommends it as a great stop before his job, and then...
Listen. He’s not even that big of a coffee guy. Occasionally he’ll have one when he’s in a mood, or he’ll drink tea instead.
But he gets so flustered around the guy who works in the mornings that he’s been ordering a black coffee with no room for cream or sugar for about a year now, and he always tips three extra dollars.
Harley has been saving all of his tips to use when he finally gets the hints that are all over his coffee cups.
Highschool/College AU: Who is the straight-A student, and who’s the backrow slacker?
It’s not that Harley is a slacker, it’s just that he prefers to have other skills outside of school. You know, cool stuff. Like working on his motorcycle, or doing literally anything math.
But...the decathlon team needs another member after Betty gets the flu and Flash is on some weird boycott that he’d rather not ask about.
So he’s paired with Parker, who is very school-oriented and is the subject of most of the bragging rights with the school’s staff and administration. He is also the subject of most of Harley’s dreams.
(Not that Peter will ever know that...)
Rivals to loves AU: Who takes their rivalry seriously, and who is half in it just to push the other’s buttons?
Harley absolutely does not take it seriously at all. He thinks it’s cute that Peter keeps trying to “prank” him, but he has the most obvious tells in the world.
But he humors him, because honestly if they were rivals, Harley wouldn’t pay him the time of day. That’s just the kind of person he is. Besides, it’s kind of cute to see Peter’s cheeks go all red like that.
Enemies to lovers AU: Which one switches sides?
criminal au: Peter’s been a thief since he was twelve and stole a woman’s wallet back for her, but in the process maybe took five dollars. Hey, it’s only fair. He saved her the hassle of having to wait in line at the DMV for three hours.
People tell him he has a cute face. A trusting face. A face that screams that he’s the one who gets pick-pocketed, not the other way round.
Enter in Harley, society’s newest socialite, and one that Peter is assuming is going to be an easy mark. He doesn’t know his own reputation, requested “pigs in a blanket” at his inaugural ball, and talks with a slight southern twang that is truly adorable, and...
“I saw you take my ring, sugar,” Harley says to Peter as they’re dancing. “And, well, I’d like it back, if it’s not too much trouble. If it is, I can always launch you out of a window.”
Peter gives the ring back, although he tends to hang around far more often. Not every day someone as cute as Harley Keener catches onto his tricks.
Soulmate AU: Who is eager to meet their soulmate? Who absolutely does not want to meet their soulmate?
Harley is absolutely not going to meet his soulmate, he’s decided. It didn’t work out for Mama, and he’s learned from a very young age that you don’t really need a soulmate. All he needs is a job at a mechanics shop, and then maybe a second job. He’s not sure yet.
Enter in Peter Parker, who is very cute, and very much so his type. As in, the type to have his mark right on his neck.
Single parent AU: Which one is the single parent? (Alt. if they’re both single parents: Which one is open to starting a new relationship from the start? Which one is never planning on finding love again… Until they meet the other and are instantly smitten?)
Harley always takes his little girl to the library every Saturday morning, approximately at ten o’clock. He never deviates from the time, because that is when Mr. Parker, the children’s librarian, starts reading a story and Harley can pretend he’s actively listening (which he is...mostly) and not staring.
Then his daughter picks out her books, he talks with Peter, and is slowly getting the courage to ask out the nice librarian.
Doctor AU: Which one is the longsuffering doctor? Which one is the patient?
Peter is honestly amazed at the “regulars” of the hospital. Usually it’s old people like Gladys, who he swears broke her hip on purpose in order to talk with Dr. Watson-MJ-about the newest romance novel they’ve been reading.
A regular should not be a cute guy his age. Really and truly.
This time, he’s been hooked up to a heart monitor, and Peter doesn’t really want to say anything, but Harley’s heartbeat speeds up each time he enters...
Bodyguard AU: Who is the bodyguard? Who are they protecting? Which one is secretly pining for the other?
Peter doesn’t need a bodyguard. His aunt and Mr. Stark are being paranoid. (After all, sure he’s in the public eye. But it’s not like he didn’t escape out of that moving car.)
Harley Keener doesn’t much care what his client wants or doesn’t want. He will be following him.
And he finds out about his little shortcuts.
And a bit more. And more. Until eventually, he knows what Peter likes in the morning, and his imagination shouldn’t be running as fast as it is.
Pirate AU: Who is the pirate? Who is the member of the royal family who did not sign up for this?
Harley doesn’t have a need for a prince, really. They don’t do much besides threaten you with warfare, and he’s been over warfare for the last three years.
He wasn’t expecting their newest prince to be so...fierce. He’s escaped restraints three times, improved the chef’s soup recipe once, and is currently sitting in Harley’s chair in his office in a way that has only been dreamt about.
Childhood best friends AU: Which one was super obviously in love with the other the whole time? Who was oblivious until they were older?
Peter is very surprised that Harley hasn’t noticed that he’s had a crush on him for a long time now. Everyone can tell, and everyone makes fun of him for it.
“Just go for it!” Ned cheers. “That’s how I asked out Betty!”
“As I recall, Betty asked you out,” Peter grumbles. “And he’s...himself. I can’t compete with that!”
“Love isn’t a competition, idiot,” MJ comments. “Now shut up about it, love is disgusting and only for the weak-minded.”
“Then I want to be as weak-minded as possible!” Ned cheers. “But seriously, Peter. What’s the worst that could happen?”
An alien attack on the night of prom.
That’s the worst that could happen.
