I feel like we as a community don't take enough advantage of the obsessed fan! Peter Parker trope enough in Starker content
I'm talking the toxic levels we had in the early 2000's. He gets obsessed at around 10 and develops a crush on Tony- handsome and smart? package deal! He runs a somewhat popular blog and is one of the first 'daily tony stark pics' accounts to grace the internet.
But then he starts paying attention to the news and headlines. Sees old magazines and newspapers of Tony Stark with random strangers, sees magazines claiming he was going off the deep end, journalists making quick bucks to talk shit not only about Tony's addictions, but his relationships too. He goes off on people daily, to the point May and Ben take away his devices for awhile because he's obviously getting frustrated by them.
Doesn't stop him from sneaking into the computer labs at school to continue- and it only gets worse when the avengers get more light.
Articles claiming Stark is in it for fame get reposted with paragraphs of foul language talking about Stark's contributions- not only to the planet, but to the team as well. Articles talking about the man's aging are met with thousands of photos of Tony calling him handsome and an angel on earth. He's constantly arguing with people online and when the world tried blaming Ultron on Tony? Well, Peter went on a hunger strike that only ended because of him getting bit by the spider.
As a hero it's even worse. With his heightened sense comes an almost hairpin trigger to his emotions. He's quick to anger and directs it to arguing with people online. Saving people does help, but nothing truly calms him like coming home, ready to go post online and seeing the Tony Stark on his couch with his Aunt. He nearly screams, nearly runs over to excitedly ask him every question he had ever had.
But then he's being flown to Germany and actually getting to fight for Tony- for his defenses of the man to actually be seen and acknowledged by the man he had been following online for years.
He never does question if Tony ever just googled his name, or if the man who can hack into literally any fire wall could figure out his social media accounts- which all had something about Tony Stark on them
