Tony Stark might also involve his family in his superhero life in a safe way. Maybe he takes his child to visit the Avengers' headquarters sometimes, so they can understand what he does. At the same time, he sets strict boundaries to protect them from the real dangers. He is constantly juggling between being Iron Man and being a dad.
He leans on his friends and allies. The Avengers can help cover for him when he needs to be with his family. And when he's out saving the world, he can trust them to keep an eye on things at home. He also learns to prioritize and sometimes says no to certain superhero tasks to be there for his child's important moments.
Peter would probably use his spider - sense to keep his family safe. He'd be on high alert all the time when at home. And when it comes to being out as Spider - Man, he'd try to keep his battles in areas away from his family. He might also train his family in self - defense just in case.
Often, his fatherhood in crossover fanfiction is depicted as a balance between his high - flying superhero life and family life. In a crossover with the Doctor Who universe, he might use his tech to travel with his child through time and space, all while teaching them valuable lessons about the consequences of meddling with time and the importance of different cultures across the universe. It's a complex portrayal that combines his genius, heroism, and new - found parental love.
Batman as a dad could be more empathetic towards the families of the criminals he faces. He might try to rehabilitate them instead of just sending them to jail, thinking about how his actions could affect their children as well.
He tries to compartmentalize. During the day, he's Peter Parker, the brilliant scientist and businessman at Parker Industries. He focuses on his work, attends meetings, and oversees projects. But when trouble strikes, he quickly changes into Spider - Man. He might set up a system where he can be alerted to crimes while at work, so he can slip away unnoticed. However, there are times when his superhero duties conflict with his work. For instance, if there's a major battle that takes a long time, he might miss important deadlines at Parker Industries. He then has to come up with excuses and work extra hard to catch up. He also has to be careful not to let any of his enemies find out about his connection to Parker Industries, as they could target the company to get to him.
He might try to self - medicate at first. Maybe he takes some experimental drugs he's been working on in his lab. After all, he's always been one to take matters into his own hands.
In some fanfictions, their relationship could be a bit rocky at first. Maybe the adopted daughter has a different view on how to use technology for good. But through various events and heart - to - heart conversations, they grow closer and learn from each other, with Tony learning to be more open - minded and the daughter learning the value of his experience.
Their relationship might develop in stages. Initially, Stiles might be in awe of Tony but also a bit intimidated. Tony would probably be a bit overbearing, trying to mold Stiles into his idea of a proper heir. However, as Stiles shows his own strengths, like his ability to think on his feet and his loyalty to his friends, Tony would start to respect him more. They could bond over shared interests in problem - solving, whether it's a technological glitch for Tony or a supernatural mystery for Stiles.
In this genre, Tony also develops. He becomes more empathetic as he takes on this father - like role. He starts to see Peter as more than just a young hero to train. He might open up about his own past traumas to Peter, which in turn helps Peter understand him better. This mutual understanding deepens their relationship and their individual characters grow. For instance, Tony may share his experiences with his own father, which gives Peter new perspectives on family and legacy.
His life would be full of high - tech gadgets. Tony Stark is known for his advanced technology, so Harry would grow up surrounded by Iron Man - like tech. He might have a suit of his own at a young age, designed by Tony for protection.
Tony Stark shows his care for Peter Parker in fanfiction in multiple ways. He can be very protective, like when he doesn't let Peter face dangerous villains alone. Also, he might share his knowledge and experience with Peter, teaching him about the superhero world, how to handle the media, and important life lessons. Another way is by providing financial support for Peter's needs, such as for his education or for any personal projects related to his superhero activities.
