Day 4 of Losing My Mind Over Spiderson
I am not a big au person but I've had an idea in my head for a long time of the Avengers all being a masked special S.H.I.E.L.D. unit of agents that kept their IDs a secret from each other. They still have their powers and everything and they're all super close, they just never tell anyone their real names (which is hard for Tony obviously, but he probably has a dramatic reason for it). Anyway, when Spiderman shows up Fury recruits him as part of the unit and Tony grows a major bond with the kid. One year, for Christmas, the team comes together for a big celebration and Peter gets an idea. For Christmas he gives everyone on the special unit friendship bracelets. NOW BEFORE I LOSE YOU KEEP LISTENING PRETTY PLEASE. So each of the bracelets is colored after the person.
(Tony's is red and gold, Pete's is blue and red, Steve's is red white and blue, Bruce's is purple and green, Nat's is red and black, Clint's is black and purple, etc, etc)
Peter makes everyone promise to wear them at all times and everyone agrees because they don't want to upset the small child.
After a big battle that almost destroys half of New York, Fury disbands the Avengers unit and cuts off all of their contact with each other. Everyone begrudgingly accepts this until a broadcast of Tony Stark goes live and a short wave exposes his Avengers bracelet to the world and his young intern almost faints from shock on live tv.
I don't actually know if that is the plot that I would go with. I just love the idea of the Avengers all trying to find each other using personalized friendship bracelets that Peter made on a whim.
