Irondad fic ideas #151
There is a LOT of Iron Man merch out there. One day, Stark Industries comes out with a line of Iron Man themed night lights that look like arc reactors. The marketing? "For kids who are scared of the dark: Iron Man will protect you."
In completely unrelated news, a whole bunch of child abusers across the country have recently been arrested as a result of anonymous tips to local authorities.
Bonus:
It's an open secret at some point. Teens who are being abused start buying the night lights. Hell, adults start buying them. Charities pop up to cover the cost for anyone who needs it. Kids who are newly safe often send their night lights on to others ("I'm not scared of the dark anymore," they say).
Even with all of this, nobody snitches to the media or government. They all know grown-ups tend to complicate and ruin precious things.
It helps that the night lights clearly can distinguish between different types of situations. Kids whose parents need mental health or addiction support suddenly find they're being contacted by free services that actually help. If ICE is a concern, the people knocking on the door are not cops but immigrant rights activists. Kids who are hungry get food. Families who need housing support coincidentally find it.
"Iron Man will protect you," indeed.
This fic idea was inspired by this post from @fotibrit!!

dp x dc prompt #21
The superheroes of the world first encounter Danny as a giant eldritch god, while fighting another giant eldritch god. green lantern uses his ring to translate what they’re saying, but it’s staticky and rough and barely gets the message across, which shouldn’t be possible. It’s mostly battle banter, but at the end of the fight, the ring spits out a message that’s loosely translated into ‘the earth belongs to me, stay out of my territory’(he was really just warning the other to stay out of his haunt and that earth’s people were under his protection)
The JL is in crisis mode planning for another world domination attempt, this time by an extremely powerful god of unknown origin. Danny joins the league as a supernatural hero just to help them with the mysterious threat, completely oblivious to the fact that he’s the supposed threat.

I get the Toads raised Peach and she doesn't want to put her adoptive family in danger, but those little dudes still gotta take a page from the main Toad's book
I think there was a reason why Toad saw Mario wandering around in the wilderness looking for his brother and his immediate reaction was "You. Me. Best buds. Right now. We're going on an adventure!!!"
He clearly has a lot of love for his kingdom and a fair amount of friends, but it must be lonely being the only toad with an ounce of bravery.
