The parallels between Cassandra Cain and Jason Todd are crazy.

Cassandra Cain’s kindness and compassion is rooted in the violence and hate from her childhood.

Jason Todd’s violence and hate is rooted in the kindness and compassion from his days as Robin.

Jason Todd was murdered by somebody when he was young and that defined the rest of his life.

Cassandra Cain murdered somebody when she was young and that defined the rest of her life.

Jason has murdered people after his death. Cass has been murdered after she killed. But what defines them will forever be what happened first.

Two sides of the same coin, the two roles in a murder.

The killer and the killed.

Best thing my grandfather ever taught me is that you’ve gotta let yourself grunt and groan when you’re doing something difficult. Makes it easier.

When a kid explains Santa Claus and his whole deal, Cass stays up all night on Christmas Eve cause no way in hell is she letting a strange old man into her home

In all honesty she probably still believes in him, lmfao.

Damian, standing by the fireplace: I'm sure you're wondering why I asked you all here today.

Damian: We are all in agreement that Stephanie should be part of this family. However, with both father and Stephanie strongly opposed to her being adopted, there's only one recourse open to us.

Damian: One of us will have to marry her.

Damian: Obviously I'm exempt due to my extreme youth, but the rest of you are either of marriageable age or close enough to at least get engaged.

Damian: Would anyone like to volunteer? Richard?

Dick: did you seriously call me away from a crime scene to ask me to marry my little brother's ex

Damian: I'll take that as a no. Duke?

Duke: well I'm not of marriageable age either and I like just met Steph so I feel kind of weird about this whole thing-

Damian: Understandable. Jason?

Jason: lol no

Damian: I don't know why I asked. Timothy?

Tim: Damian this is really weird for me too, she's my ex and we already decided we're better off as friends and I'm sure you mean it in like a marriage of convenience kind of way but it'd still be super uncomfortable for me to ask her something like that and-

Damian: Disappointing answer. Cassandra-

Cass, holding up her phone: oh I proposed while you guys were talking

Damian:

Dick:

Tim:

Cass: *phone beeps* she said yes. We shall have a spring wedding.

Damian: Excellent work Cassandra.

Cass: thank you

Headcanon that Tawky Tawny sometimes sits Billy down and licks his hair cause that’s what cats do to clean the little ones.

So Billy will randomly have his hair at odd ends and Freddy’s just like, “Tawky happened?” And Billy just tiredly replies “yep.”

People who are wrong will say that Steph was a bad influence on Cass.

Other people who are also wrong will say that Cass was a bad influence on Steph.

The right answer is that they matched each other’s freak and went off into the sunset to be bad influences together.

Okay, we all love Billy Batson saying stuff like “mr Batman sir” & “miss Wonder Woman” but hear me out when I say the whole Marvel trio do it too.

Like, Mary is fidgeting nervously in front of Black Canary and saying “Ms Canary, ma’am, uh- really nice to meet you!”

Freddy is sweating bullets and stuttering in utter fanboy in front of superman like, “Omg! Mr superman sir!”

And all the superheroes are hit with the nostalgia of how Captain Marvel acted exactly like them before he got comfortable with the JL. And they are all like, “yep, they are definitely related to Cap”

Ouch :(

Ow :(

WAITWAITWAIT- HERE ME OUT

Rosa and Victor Vasquez going out in public but they have to put leashes on all the kids cause there are so many and someone’s always trying to run off

VOTE BILLY!!! HE HAS PRETENDED TO BE HIS OWN UNCLE IN ORDER TO DO STUFF AND THAT CHILD WAS HOMELESS SO NO WAY IS HE PAYING ANY SORT OF TAXES

I love making these lists and I can’t stop

Things I think the Marvel Trio (Captain Marvel, Mary Marvel & Capt Marvel Jr) have done in front of other heroes that prove they are all siblings.

(Yes I know most of these are more argument-based but these are all sibling moments and if I think of anything wholesome I’ll make another list.)

Cap yanked off Mary’s cape and ran for it with her in hot pursuit.

Jr & Cap kicked each other under the table for half a hour straight during a hero meeting.

Mary put Jr in a headlock and dragged him around.

Jr & Mary duck taped Cap to the watchtower cafeteria ceiling.

All three kept blowing raspberries at each other during a big fight against a supervillain

Cap & Jr both kept making fart noises every time Mary took a step.

All three showed up to a mission with ice creams smooshed on their heads and glares being thrown between the three of them.

Cap & Jr were put in the Get Along Shirt.

Mary & Cap were put in the Get Along Shirt.

Jr & Mary were put in the Get Along Shirt.

All three were put in the Get Along Shirt by a grumpy Batman.

Mary threw Jr into the sun after an argument (he’s fine.)

Reblog the writers’ fortune cookie for luck!

Exclusive radio interview of famous Belgian reporter.

everyone in the jla is shocked when a group of aliens bow down to billy as he's the champion of magic and they also use magic

You can do whatever you want forever if you believe in it

Headcanons on how the Marvel trio blink cause they are hijacking my brain and holding hostages.

Captain Marvel: frog blinks (no thoughts behind his eyes)

Mary Marvel: doesn’t blink (staring into your soul as she pulls out her bazooka)

Captain Marvel Jr: rapid blinking (its Morse code but he only knows half the alphabet and he’s guessing the other half so it’s just gibberish)

Headcanon that whenever somebody in the Marvel Trio says something stupid another Marvel smacks their head and says “get outta there, Mr Mind!” And only other heroes from Fawcett understand it.

It would be such a cute inside joke that confuses every other hero.

Another list let’s goooo!!!

Things I think Captain Marvel has let slip in conversation unprompted that have concerned others.

“When I was a kid I threw a brick at a cop car” (by kid he means yesterday)

“You act like my uncle after a beer”

“This reminds me of the time somebody tried to run me over with their car back when I was a kid!” (Again, by kid he means yesterday)

“My sister is basically legally dead.”

“I’ve eaten rat meat before!”

“Have you ever been chased out of a store with a broom cause somebody thought you stole a gift card? No? Yeah, me neither.”

“I fight a lot of nazis.”

“Sometimes the gods in my head tell me to kill somebody to set an example :(“

“Mary Marvel got angry at Junior again and she threw him into the sun. He’s fine... I think.”

“There’s this green worm that tries to crawl into people’s ears and mind control them.”

“I found a baby in a dumpster once!”

“I don’t think I have organs.”

Holy freaking moly‼️

Cass is face blind, not like oh she’s bad at remembering faces but in an actual cannot for the life of her know who she’s looking at kinda way. Instead of faces she uses context clues, body language, and voices to tell who she’s interacting with. She’s gotten pretty good at it each of her family members having an obvious tell that it’s them. Some of them include how Dick always has blue incorporated into his outfit. Jason always smells slightly of gun powder and cigarettes. Tim’s posture is so bad Cass can tell it’s him from a mile away. Damian has green eyes, Steph has blonde hair, Babs has red hair. Cass wishes all the boys had different colored hair, as it would simply make her life a lot easier.

The face blindness really doesn’t impare her abilities during patrol cause all of the Gotham rogues and heroes wear such dramatic outfits Cass doesn’t need to see their face to know who they are.

Unfortunately problems often arise when she’s in civilian form,

Cass: *at starbucks*

Dick: oh my god Cass! is that you?

Cass: *confused but polite* hello.

Dick: hey, how’s your day been?

Cass: *is unsure why this random guy is talking to her but once again polite* good.

Dick: *confused on why his sister is acting weird*...that’s good.

Cass: *grabbing her order and attempting to leave.*

Dick: Wait don’t you want a ride back to the manor?

Cass: No. *rushing away and is very uncomfortable.*

Cass: *halfway down the street, realizing she’s heard that voice before, immediately pulling out her phone*

Dick: Hello?

Cass: Starbucks?

Dick: Yea..

——

Jason: *recently dyed his white streak black cause he was feeling insecure about it*

Cass: *stands next to no streak Jason sitting at the batcomputer* Bruce?

Jason: I beg your finest pardon

Cass: Oh, Hi Jason.

Jason: *on his way to bleach his streak back cause never again.*

——

Bruce: *brings Clark to the manor, they’re both in civilian clothing looking identical.*

Cass: No metas, too confusing.

Cass: *staring directly at Bruce thinking it’s Clark* I. Don’t. Like. You.

Bruce: *has not been this heartbroken since Khoa Khan.* Clark, I think it’s best for you to leave

——

Cass: *staring at the blonde person in the kitchen thinking it’s Steph* oh wow your hair..

Bernard: *also face blind.* Tim…You sound different.

After Captain Marvel’s revealed to be a 14 year old boy and once everyone’s gotten over it, the short jokes are gonna be endless.

Cause they go from straining their necks looking up at this over 8ft tall dude to having to look down at this scrawny short kid.

So yeah, Billy’s never gonna escape the short jokes cause that kid isn’t growing up to be taller than 5’11, and 5’11 is at BEST.

Post Captain Marvel identity reveal some of the other JL members try to go into Fawcett to check on Billy (cuz he’s a literal child superhero) and Billy has to chase them out like someone shooing away raccoons from their rubbish bins.

Captain Marvel (Shazam) AU where Billy thinks the JL knows his identity so he’ll just walk around the Watchtower as Billy. So others see this random kid and —in all the wisdom of the smartest heroes in the world— they assume he’s just a ghost haunting the place.

Cue identity shenanigans

I’m about to write Batfamily fanfiction starring ONLY the girls, Helena will be there, Babs will be there, Stephanie will be there, Cass will be there, Kate will be there, for the hell of it Dinah will show up.

The batboys you ask

Tim will be in one scene make a joke about zesti then never show up again.

Dick will be the supportive mom who’s serious and down to earth, only appearing when used as a plot device.

Both Jason and Damian will be tagged never show up and you will be lucky if they are even mentioned.

Bruce will be in Hong Kong.

Headcanon that all the Vazquez kids are notorious for using Freddy’s crutch to hit bullies.

Billy, Eugene, Mary, and Freddy himself have all definitely done it (more than once)

But you know you’ve really fucked up when Darla or Pedro are coming at you with that freaking crutch

Superman, in the middle of a battle: *gets hit by a shard of kryptonite*

Batman: *grabs the shard and hands it to Captain Marvel*

Batman: “Captain! Get rid of this, quickly!”

Captain Marvel: *panics and eats the kryptonite*

Batman:

Captain Marvel:

Superman:

Captain Marvel: “I PANICKED OKAY???”

Superman: “SO YOUR FIRST THOUGHT WAS TO EAT IT???”

Batman: “Please tell me you don’t often eat things to get rid of them…”

Captain Marvel:

Captain Marvel: *turns around and flies back into battle*

Yes, I have over 30 drafts that I release day by day like hostages being released by a criminal with unintelligible demands.

Yes, the drafts are growing faster than I am willing post them.

Yes, this was in my drafts for a week.

I declare this press conference over.

I want more Batman being a little scared of bats. I mean that’s why he became BATman, because he saw bats as scary enough to strike fear into the hearts of criminals! Ik he got over that childhood fear, but I still want him to just be a teeny bit scared of them cuz it’s funny.

Like, he’s cool with the Bats in the Batcave, cause he’s familiar with them and they’re all doing their own thing.

But he’s in a different cave with different bats? As soon as one of those little fuckers flies a little too close to his head, he’s ducking on instinct and speed walking out of there.

Okay but what if a city’s chosen isn’t their hero, but just some rando

Like the city just looks like a slightly mystical woman in a shirt and sweatpants. Or they look like some dude giving off divorced dad vibes.

The cities are alive

By now, it's a pretty common fact that the cities — yes, cities are in fact, alive.

They can project a body in their territory, thus showing their presence.

Lady Gotham is a dark mistress. Her wings are black like the fog that covers her whole city — as black as Gotham's night. Her long dress, even though seemingly soft and elegant in first glance, won't ever sway, not even in the harshest winter winds Gotham offers.

Even though she wears a blindfold, she sees all, is all. She sees beyond the surface of what eyes can see; knowing full well the pain and suffering every single Gotham citizen goes through, and bears that burden.

Her whole body seems to be made of pure, dark energy. Some accounts of eye witnesses say that if Lady Gotham wished so, she could easily blend into the shadows, as if she was never there. Ever watching over her people, even though unseen.

Legends say that if you ever feel like you're being watched even though there's nobody there, it's a sign Lady Gotham's spirit has her sights on you.

The person who have her favor, the ones she sees herself the most in, are her royal knights, who fight to keep her city and her people safe, every night.

Metropolis' spirit was very different, in many ways.

Metropolis was sunny and hopeful — a truly carefree soul.

Metropolis was the city that showed himself the most, simply enjoying being able to watch as the civillians go about their day, making the city burst with life.

Metropolis thrives on the energy of its people — that is reflected on the bright, sunny days with no clouds in sight, where the skyline gleams.

Of course, Metropolis' chosen is Superman, the most bright symbol of hope there is. Inspired by him, Metropolis even decided to encorporate a cape in their astral projection, said cape that shines like the sun and gleams like the sky no matter the time.

Everyone knows a city's spirit has at least something in common with their chosen.

Metropolis is the most boyscout city spirit out there. More often than not, the spirit can be found watching the sunrise, flying over the clouds, enjoying the freedom, or simply swinging his legs on a building, looking at everyone down below. The feeling of hope, of a chance of a better tomorrow — that is what Metropolis is looking for. And Superman has more than enough of that.

Even though Lady Gotham is cloaked in shadows, she doesn't wilt, she thrives— Just like her chosen, the Gotham Bats.

No one questions these things, they all make sense, don't they? The dark Lady has her dark Knights, the sunny city and the boyscout...

So imagine the faces of the League members when they find out through casual conversation that Fawcett is an actual child.

──────────────────────────

Green Lantern: “I know i shouldn't be talking about someone being childish, but the spirit that chose him is literally a child.”

Wonder Woman: “Are you certain that is the reason that the spirit chose to reflect a child's body? For his.. mentality?”

Green Lantern: “Yeah, pretty much. I mean, do you know any other reason that Fawcett could have chosen that form?”

Zatanna, who sometimes goes to Fawcett's magical market: “You all know that Fawcett's magical, right? What's more magical than a child's imagination?”

Flash: “If the spirit wanted to reflect something of Marvel's, why choose the mentality? The lightning bolt is right there!”

──────────────────────────

“Uno!” a child made of yellow energy exclaims, grinning devilishly.

Freddy gasps, holding a single card in his hand — having played the second to last one just seconds before. “Oh you did NOT just do that.”

Fawcett giggles like a goblin, watching as Freddy glares at them, pointedly making eye contact as he starts buying cards.

“Well, if you had been just a little faster..” Billy says, playing a reversal card. Freddy looks once at his new cards, then proceeds to sigh in frustration, buying even more cards while glaring murderously at the Champion.

“Batson, if i were you, i'd sleep with one eye open tonight.”

Billy can't contain his giggles anymore and bursts out laughing, Fawcett following suit.

I need a fic where all the magic users know that the Champion of Magic is a child so they just start unintentionally co-parenting Billy.

Like, John Constantine will take him on outings to hell. Billy will run off and come back with a piece of Constantine’s soul that had been gambled away and Billy will refuse to explain how he got it.

Dr. Fate (against his better judgment) sets up a playdate between Billy and Klarion the Witch Boy where they are just running around causing chaos (nothing harmful thanks to Billy)

Zatanna lets Billy come to her shows where he’s putting every other audience member to shame with how loud he claps and cheers whenever Zatanna does a trick.

Give me a scenario where magic users are regularly teleporting into the watchtower just to give Captain Marvel a packed lunch, and telling him off —in front of the JL— for forgetting it.
