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)
Made myself depressed thinking about Cass again. Specifically DCeased Cass. Imagining her dropping her Shazam form whenever it comes time to beat up some regular goons. When the others ask her why, she fires back with simply, "keeps me sharp." The real truth is because she can't be hurt as Shazam, and after everything that's happened, after losing Bruce and Barbara and Tim and Stephanie and now even Damian, she really, really needs to feel hurt.
Ive seen this be done a few times, but I want more of it so I’m spreading the word.
Petition to introduce the trope of cuddle pollen. Like sex pollen but way more wholesome. Imagine your touch starved fave getting all the cuddles.
Finally finished this, got a bit lazy with shading but I think it turned out really well!
This is probably the closest any of you are getting to a face reveal XD

So, there’s this idea that Captain Marvel is the idealized form of Billy Batson, right? Like, the version of himself he aspires to be. The hero he wants to become. The face he wants the world to see-- strong, bright, safe, inspiring.
And, well… Captain Marvel looks a lot like C.C. Batson. His father. That’s Billy’s hero. That’s the face that makes him believe in good. The smile that gives him hope and faith in his dreams. With a few traces of his mom, like her eyelashes, her ears, nose
But… that can change. Right?
Billy’s going to meet new people. He’s going to have new heroes in his life. New people to look up to. New versions of “who I want to be like.”
So one day, Marvel looks like a perfect blend of C.C. and Marilyn. And then, after a particularly emotional moment with John Constantine, he shows up at the Watchtower… with a different jawline.
His bone structure is slightly off. You wouldn’t notice unless you were really paying attention. But Bruce was. Bruce always is. He doesn’t say anything, just quietly writes it down with some suspicion of a possible shapeshifter.
And then, boom-- WHERE THE HELL ARE MARVEL’S DIMPLES?! They’re gone. Just gone. When he smiles, it’s a completely different smile. No dimples. There’s… are those canines? Slightly unhuman teeth and-- wait, Is that SUPERMAN’S smile? A perfect, radiant replica??
The next day, the dimples are back. Because Marvel caught a glimpse of himself in the mirror and he missed them. Not consciously. He didn’t even realize it. But they’re back anyway.
It all happens unconsciously. And it changes from time to time.
One day he’s got feline eyes and sharp little teeth, a goofy yet oddly charming (and a little predatory) grin. That’s Tawky Tawny’s influence.
Another day, his eyes aren’t blue anymore, they’re green. Sharp. Focused. But also warm. You feel seen, and still, oddly… safe. (Catwoman likes Cap. She’s been nice to him ever since he introduced her to Tawny.)
Then-- No freaking way he’s BLONDE. (Thanks, Constantine.)
One day, his eyes are still blue, but now they’re icy. Almost crystal. Batman nearly has a heart attack because it’s his father’s eyes. His father’s eyebrows too. (Billy was just really happy with Bruce Waynbe since he donated a massive bunch of money to Fawcett’s homeless shelters.)
And then.. pointy ears. A different nose. (Kon.)
J’onn shares his special cookies with him one afternoon and now Marvel’s got a little green tint in his cheeks instead of red.
He never hides it. If someone asks, he just shrugs and goes, “Oh yeah, my features kinda shift based on people I admire? I guess. I don’t really notice until you guys point it out. I can’t control it.”
A lot of people think his tall, muscular body comes from Superman. But nope. It’s from Diana.
Billy sees her: tall, powerful, graceful, hair always a little wild but somehow perfect. Elegant. Commanding. He thinks she’s incredible. So he becomes tall, powerful, elegant. Hair that never moves out of place (but still has a charmingly messy style). All that’s missing is a little more confidence and posture.
And Flash? Flash nearly dies of happiness when Marvel shows up one day— with his awkward little half-smile.
au where Billy Doesn't Lie but he makes freddy do it for him
Counter take: Mary’s deadname is Billy and Billy’s deadname is Mary.
Like they both didn’t remember each other’s real name cause they used nicknames.
So the other’s real name always floated around in their head but they didn’t remember where they heard it. So they went “fuck it” and renamed themselves that.
new cap marvel take: Billy & Mary both trans. didn't recognise each other on being re-united bcos both had transitioned and changed their names.
Being someone who lives in a completely different Timezone from the USA, it’s so fun to see my American mutuals become active at the most random times
Just a bunch of little guys, up from their naps and running around with their guns! Awww
