Tony Stark Prompt:

Tony is walking through the streets of New York when he is almost hit by an out of control bus. Luckily New York's newest enhanced superhero is there to save him. As Tony chats with the teen afterwards to thank him, he is taken by surprise by the bubbly fanboy he is presented with and, most importantly, by his stories of a fateful night at the Stark Expo years ago.

Tony saved Peter's life years ago, only for the favor to be returned. Tony vows to keep protecting Peter even as the teen decides it's his personal mission to save others.

Tony Stark Prompt:

Tony never thought he would be a father, let alone a father of two. He knew parenting would be hard and he knew deep down that he would be bad at it... but after adopting Peter he had wanted to try and had since had Morgan. Now, after Peter and Morgan had a fight he has no idea what to do. Does he take sides? Ignore it? Force a family meeting? Why is parenting so hard?!

Another really cool prompt written by the same amazing anonymous submitter as the last few posts! (if this is you and you want credit let me know). It's really well thought out so give it a read!

(Writer's choice)

Universe: AU

Pairing(s) and/or Major Character(s): Tony Stark/Stephen Strange; implied Rescue (actual goddess Pepper Potts)/Loki; J.A.R.V.I.S. & Tony Stark; Friday & Tony Stark; Stephen Strange & the Cloak of Levitation

Assumed Rating: T - MA

URL/Name: [Optional]

Prompt: Fantasy AU. Sir Anthony (Tony to his friends) Stark is a wealthy and highly skilled blacksmith, genius elemental master, and knight-at-arms whose red and gold sentient suit, J.A.R.V.I.S., is the result of melding his smithing with elemental mastery (earth, air, fire, water, and spirit), and who works with Friday, a spirit of air he freed from abusive masters, who insists she is responsible for his safety since he saved her life. He’s particularly beloved of Loki, trickster god of fire, chaos, and stories, and Rescue, protective goddess of salvation/deliverance and justice, and has permission to carry their colors – dark green and black; and rose-gold and indigo – whenever he goes into battle. Hired by Baron Mordo of Banat to rescue a kidnapped neighboring princess imprisoned by a fierce dragon in a secluded, isolated tower high in the northern mountains, the brave knight is shocked to find neither dragon nor princess but instead a badly battered and bleeding sorcerer who somehow seems to recognize him and whose floating cape seems determined to beat Tony about the head and shoulders until he makes himself helpful. Though he’s not a healer, the knight is determined to stay and help the wounded sorcerer recover, if only to figure out why the Baron lied to him about a kidnapped princess in peril.

  Bonus points if Tony calls on Rescue to help heal Dr. Strange and Loki to sow chaos when Baron Mordo resorts to hiring a band of Hydra assassins to kill both Strange and Stark. Extra bonus points if Dr. Strange as the dragon makes an appearance in the inevitable battle. Extra extra bonus points if Tony is wounded flinging himself between Stephen and a javelin or lance, so that Dr. Strange has to nurse Tony back to health, too, before they can go after Mordo. Writer’s choice on whether or not to include more MARVEL characters (such as Pietro, Wanda, Crossbones, etc., among the Hydra assassins).

Yet another amazing prompt written by the same anonymous submitter as the last few posts! (if this is you and you want credit let me know). It's really well thought out so give it a read!

(Writer's choice)

Universe: AU

Pairing(s) and/or Major Character(s): Tony Stark/Stephen Strange

Assumed Rating: T - MA

URL/Name: [Optional]

Prompt: AU twist on Beauty and the Beast. Cursed by a witch known as the Ancient One (for dismissing her wound as trivial and uninteresting and ordering her to stop wasting his time and go to the town healer, instead, when she showed up at his castle one dark and stormy night, begging for shelter and aid) and transformed into a monstrous beast, Dr. Stephen Strange spends most of his days brooding in his castle and snapping at the irrepressible Cloak of Levitation, until one day a lost traveler trespasses on his domain (writer’s choice whether this is Howard Stark or Edwin Jarvis). When young Anthony Stark shows up two days later demanding that his father be freed, a bargain is struck whereby Anthony (or Tony to his family and friends) promises to spend a year and a day in the beast’s castle, so long as his father goes free. The beast – who claims that his name is Strange – is prickly and hot-tempered, but his library is vast and Tony is shocked to discover that Strange is both clever and erudite. They spend hours upon hours talking, growing closer as the days pass, and, to his shock, Tony finds that he no longer looks forward to their time together ending . . .   

  Writer’s choice whether this is more DISNEY (in which case, perhaps Steve Rogers is Gaston and either Sam or Bucky is LeFau?) or traditional (in which case, perhaps Friday and JARVIS are Tony’s siblings and he’s given permission to leave for a wedding between Friday and Amadeus Cho or Jarvis and Pepper?), but I would love to see Tony creating his armor with Beast’s help.

Here is a prompt written by the same amazingly talented anonymous submitter as the last few posts (if this is you and you want credit let me know). It's really well thought out so give it a read!

(Writer's choice)

Universe: AU/Canon

Pairing(s) and/or Major Character(s): Tony Stark/Pepper Potts; Tony Stark & James Rhodes; Tony Stark & Happy Hogan; Tony Stark & Pepper Potts; Rescue!Pepper Potts; Extremis!Pepper Potts; Extremis!Tony Stark; Tony Stark & J.A.R.V.I.S.; J.A.R.V.I.S. lives; Tony Stark & Ultron; Ultron wakes up when attacked and joins forces with J.A.R.V.I.S. to fight back; Tony Stark & F.R.I.D.A.Y.; Tony Stark & Harley Keener;

Assumed Rating: T - MA

URL/Name: [Optional]

Prompt: Canon fix-it. Tony Stark can program sentience, but not instant morals, which is why the Ultron project isn’t feasible, as is (Ultron would work just fine as a new AI, but would need years of teaching/learning/growing to handle the kind of workload – a suit of armor around the world – that Tony wants him to be able to instantly handle), at least not yet. However, since Ultron could and would still be able to function as a new AI, if activated, when the malevolent sentience attached by Thanos to the Mind Stone escapes from the Scepter, due to the massive power surge that Thor causes goofing off with Mjölnir, the result is that Ultron comes online and wakes up. Confused but fully functional as an AI, Ultron automatically defers to J.A.R.V.I.S. (who has been coded as his big brother by his primary creator) and works with him to fight off the attacking sentience, but the sentience hijacks one of the Iron Legions and escapes, busting through the party on its way out. Tony is shocked to find Ultron online, but immediately goes into protective dad mode when Steve and a few of the others start throwing accusations while Bruce goes into defensive science bro mode over Tony (Hulk nearly makes an appearance when Thor grabs Tony, but Rhodey gets there first and Thor is forced to back down). Ultron responds by digging through Hydra’s servers looking for information about the Scepter and the malevolent sentience (dubbed the magical parasite by Tony) while J.A.R.V.I.S. investigates what may have caused the sentience to escape the Scepter, which quickly results in the discovery that Wanda Maximoff mind-raped Tony in Sokovia and that Thor (via Mjölnir) is responsible for the power surge that freed the malevolent sentience.

  Bonus points if the following all happen at some point in the story: Wanda and Pietro Maximoff are treated like the dangerous Hydra agents they are and Steve is treated as having been mentally compromised for suddenly sympathizing with them and taking Wanda’s word over his team mates; Thor realizes he’s f*cked up and actually fights to make amends; Ultron in one of the Iron Legion armors on sentry mode prevents Wanda from getting close enough to Bruce to set off the Hulk (though the others are still mind-raped, which means they’re not happy when Steve seems to want to treat the murder twins like they’re misguided kids. Natasha and Clint in particular are not at all happy with Steve); a backup of J.A.R.V.I.S. forms the basis of Vision but J.A.R.V.I.S. himself is just fine; between J.A.R.V.I.S. and Ultron and Tony, Novi Grad doesn’t get ripped out of the ground, the magical parasite is dealt with (without help from the murder twins or Steve) without causing a major disaster in Sokovia, and Thor decides that the best way to make amends with friend Anthony is to show that he absolutely trusts him . . . so he goes and fetches the Aether and makes a gift of it in recompense. Writer’s choice what happens from here but I’d love to see Tony tame the Reality Stone (and Loki decide that maybe the Tesseract would be safer on Midgard, after all, as a result).

Here is a lovely prompt submission by ka-binko! It's genius! Sorry it took me so long to look at my inbox!

When a superhero gets injured, the medical instinct is to give said superhero super drugs. In which people forget at the critical moment that Tony is human and he gets given steve or spideys super drugs.

[tonystarkismyprompt]

Prompt: what happened to the big plush bunny tony gave pepper?

Good prompt! Thanks for submitting and sorry it took so long to get this out. Happy writing!

Tony Stark Prompt:

Tony returns from his "death" in End Game only to find out that Fury has been treating Peter like a slave since he's the only "Avenger" left. Tony won't let anyone treat his spiderson like that, nor force him to grow up too fast. Even if it means giving up the fact that he's not actually dead.

(In a slightly AU universe where Peter doesn't get his identity revealed at the end of Far From Home and Fury is actually Fury, preferably)

[tonystarkismyprompt]

heyy can we answer a prompt if someone else has already? thx

Sure thing! The prompts are for everyone's use. I firmly believe that each fic can be special and unique despite being based on the same idea, so absolutely go for it! I wrote these prompts to hopefully inspire more writing in the fandom, so I am extremely happy and grateful to every single writer who chooses to use one of these ideas to create amazing works. Happy writing!!

Tony Stark Prompt:

Kingdom AU

The Avengers are a group of well-known bandits in the kingdom of Hydra. They are the best group of resistance fighters in the land. When sheltered Tony Stark, of the Stark family--lead by Lord Howard Stark of Hydra Kingdom--finds out about the atrocities that Hydra royalty commits and that his family supports it... Well, what else is there to do but join the resistance? The Avengers are of course a little skeptical, but soon learn that Tony could be an asset to their team.

[tonystarkismyprompt]

Tony Stark Prompt:

Tony doesn't like celebrating his birthday. Understandable, considering he's never actually had a good one where people who care about him go out of their way to make his day fun and happy. If anything, he's always expected to put in effort to throw a big party so everyone else can have fun. This year, however, the Avengers fam (lead by a determined spiderson) aim to throw Tony the party he deserves.

Tony Stark Prompt:

After the altercation at the Siberian bunker, Tony is left lieing on the floor in a broken suit. However, before help could arrive, Tony finds out that this HYDRA bunker is not as abandoned as they thought and he gets taken by the organization.

[tonystarkismyprompt]

Tony Stark Prompt:

No Powers/University AU

Tony is the new mechanics professor at SHIELD University, and happens to be the youngest professor on campus who also has multiple PhDs. Simply put, Tony is a genius. Steve just wants to know how to fix his motorcycle.

[tonystarkismyprompt]

Tony Stark Prompt:

Tony did not announce he was Iron Man AU / Hidden Iron Man Identity

Tony Stark is definitely not Iron Man. At all. And if the Avengers currently living in his tower notice a few bruises and injuries that logically shouldn't be there... well... Tony has found that giving more details than is needed typically gets them off his back. (Such as graphic playboy stuff, etc, until they just stop asking...)

[tonystarkismyprompt]

Tony Stark Prompt:

Trigger warning! Child abuse (sensitive topic)

No Powers/Avengers as Kids AU

Tony Stark runs away from his house after an altercation with his father and goes to a youth shelter for kids who have unsafe homes. There he meets the Avengers, (other kids who have left their home for some reason or another) though some of them are less-than-welcoming as they think that Tony doesn't have a good enough reason to be there (they don't know the true extent of his abuse). Perhaps they think he is just doing it for attention, more money from his dad, etc.

[tonystarkismyprompt]

Tony Stark Prompt:

Basically this:

As a prompt. An AU where the Avengers have retired and had kids. They all meet up to have a beach outing. Different parenting styles are obvious. Tony is sweet and overly protective of his and Pepper's miracle baby. Thor loves his kids but tends to throw them around like ragdolls in his beach day excitement as they are offspring of a god and are more durable. Steve and Bucky totally adopt and help their excited kid(s) make seashell/seaweed necklaces for everyone. Natasha and Bruce's kids (can be adopted) are maniacs at beach volleyball rivaling even Clint and Laura's excitable brood.

[tonystarkismyprompt]

Tony Stark Prompt:

No Powers/Kid AU

Kid!Avengers are in elementary school. Fury is the perpetually exasperated teacher with Coulson as his student teacher. The kids are a handful, obviously, with Tony and Bruce constantly trying to take apart the newly donated Stark tablets, Steve trying to keep his special colored pencils safe (usually from Bucky), Natasha being a safe school violation, Thor and Loki purposefully being Bad at Everything to piss off Fury, Clint climbing on literally everything... and collective shenanigans.

Have fun with it.
