I Think It’s Humorous When DC Villians Are All (inconsistently) Honorable When It Comes To Their Heroes

I think it’s humorous when DC villians are all (inconsistently) honorable when it comes to their heroes being injured or getting unmasked, like that could never be the case for Billy Batson. His dynamic with his regular villains kinda hinges on the fact that most of them know he’s 7-14 years old, an orphan, and/or likely homeless depending on the timeline they’re attacking him.

They’re just 1000% down with killing him the moment he’s gets caught flat footed and joking with him they fail because it’s the Same Shit As Normal for Billy. He doesn’t really know any other way of life since because of his uncle’s schemes to steal his inheritance and forcing Billy to steal if he wants to come back home.

It must give other heroes whiplash.

Billy, whose parents died from being crushed by rocks in a buried tomb, watching as the wizard is killed by a massive rock falling onto him: oh…

I like to think that regardless of whether Batman knows Cap is a kid or not, he notices he has a really hard time sitting still during meetings and is fully prepared to deal with that

batman would hate me because I’d insist on pockets with my costume and he’d argue a utility belt is technically multiple pockets and I wouldn’t take that

For so much of their early relationship whenever Barbara is insensitive to her Cass generally responds by playing it off as if it doesn't bother her to spare Barbara's feelings. She knows Babs only means well and she's a big girl, she's willing to just let it roll right off her and try to see the best in it.

It really is this one outburst that changed things between them. It was the watershed moment that, for Cass at least, made it very clear how Barbara really felt about her.

I think this is the moment that made Cass realize it wasn't just words and it wasn't just misguided. Barbara really does on some level see her as lesser because of the way she is. She can't just shrug off the hurtful things Barbara says about her anymore because now Cass knows that she means them and that makes them cut right down to the bone.

Their relationship can never be the same again after that. Barbara to her credit tries so hard and eventually things get better between them but that damage is already done and now it will always be there.

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.

IS THAT HYPERPIGMENTATION???

IS THAT HYPERPIGMENTATION???
4 months ago

One day he just drops out of the sky fast asleep during the Justice League fighting a threat and later that day they have to send out a public statement that “Captain Marvel is not dead, one of his patrons just will sometimes pull his blessing from Marvel so he will sleep”

Billy is not happy about his lack-of-sleep being leaked to the public cause now Fawcett heroes and civilians regularly check in to make sure he’s sleeping.

Thinking about a scenario where, for whatever reason, Atlas has to pull his blessing from Captain Marvel for a little bit and Cap doesn’t know about it until it happens.

Like, he’s at a Justice League meeting, and suddenly he’s so tired and he just falls asleep on the spot.

So the JL hear a giant thud and look over so see Captain Marvel gone limp face down on the table.

And he looks dead. It doesn’t help that he doesn’t need to breathe in his marvel form so he isn’t breathing.

Cue the freak out.

I feel like when things are quiet in Gotham and the only threat is normal criminals, Cass would have no issue blasting music on patrol just for fun. No one knows what to make of it, Bruce isn't sure if it's an effective crime fighting tactic or not but it sure is Something.

You are random Gotham mugger 745 trying to steal from a woman on her way home from work and you suddenly hear Chappell Roan's Good Luck Babe growing ominously louder until you're suddenly knocked out too fast to recognise who it is. You end up at the police station with five other guys who've experienced something similar. One says they heard Mitski's My Love Mine All Mine playing. Another heard wish you were gay by Billie Eilish. Is there a lesbian ghost haunting Gotham? What the hell is going on?

Elsewhere on a completely unrelated note Barbara is having a long discussion with Cass on first loves and realising you're gay. Chappell Roan and girl in red will be haunting Gotham criminals for a solid month before she finally works up the courage to actually Talk to Steph about how she's feeling, at which point the lesbian ghost who knocks criminals unconscious will have developed into a Gotham meme and become an urban legend. Believers will say it's a new god here to protect sapphic women. Skeptics will tell you it's probably just Poison Ivy.
