cassandra cain incorrect quotes:
cass:
explanation: it’s incorrect because cass is not actually mute
I love the recent wave of Hallucisteph shit posts because most fanon jokes are funny but give you an erroneous idea of canon personality/relationships but no. Cassandra Cain literally does that, and it's as gay and ridiculous as the shit posts make it out to be. If anything, you're not getting the full experience.
Idk about you, but it’s very important to me that Cassandra Cain has a scratchy and sore sounding voice paired with an accent that is completely unique.
Like, that girl was homeless and wandering the US for around 9 years! Pairing that with the fact she didn’t use her voice often/at all for the first 17 years of her life then of course her voice will sound weird from the disuse!
My favourite flavour of StephCass is when the two of them don’t realise they are in a romantic relationship
“We make out, but only platonically”
“Yeah, I call her babe, but that’s just girl talk!”
“Sure, Steph always sleeps in my bed even tho she has her own, but that’s only because it gets cold”
“I get jealous when other people flirt with her, but that’s normal”
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
One day a man goes missing in Gotham. Nobody special, just another unlucky lowlife schmuck who owed money to the wrong people. The kind of guy with nobody in the world to miss him. Bruce and Babs are sharing notes when Cassandra wanders in. When she notices a picture of the guy's face her eyes harden in a way they're very unused to and she insists they put her on the case. She very pointedly asks for his name before pulling down her mask and leaping out the window.
They don't see her again for the next several days. She tears through the city's criminal underbelly with an unmatched ferocity. She's always driven but this concerns even Bruce. If experience has taught them anything though, it's that there's no talking to her when she's like this so they can do nothing but wait and hope.
Eventually she puts enough pressure on that somebody gives her a location. Not an hour later she's untying the man from a chair in a dank cellar in a dive bar on the outskirts of the city. He's not exactly on the right side of law so when he pulls the blindfold from over his eyes and sees a Bat standing right in front of him, especially this bat, he yelps and recoils in fear. Then she hugs him. She hugs him tight and holds on long enough that he forgets his fear and instead starts to feel distinctly awkward. Then just as quickly she vanishes, leaving him alone and too stunned for words.
He doesn't remember, but then, she never expected him to. It was years ago after all. A cold night, even for winter in Gotham when a petty crook decided the girl huddled on a street corner with no home to go back to looked like she needed that hot cup of cocoa more than he did. She remembered though.
Back with another list for you guys!!!
Weird things Captain Marvel has done
Carved his entire mission report into a slab of stone for Batman
Sat on the couch in the Watchtower rec room without moving or blinking for 2 hours straight before going home whistling
Tried to lick the sun cause he was curious what it would taste like
Carried a child (Freddy) on his shoulders for an entire mission
Wore a top hat for a day and when asked about it was very confused about why he was wearing a top hat
Fell asleep in space for 5 hours, just floating around (he only woke up when he bumped into the moon)
Sweat an actual, real bullet
Swallowed a bag of chips whole (like, he didn’t even open it up)
Accidentally turned his hair into cotton candy then absentmindedly ate it (bald Cap became a meme)
Didn’t have have his lower body for a week and didn’t say why (like, from the waist down it was just fucking gone)
There's this trend I'm calling "Over-corrective fanon." Where you have a commonly held opinion in fandom that is seen as inaccurate. In response, a new headcanon springs out, usually designed to combat the first fanon by swinging in the complete opposite direction.
For example, let's pick an obvious one: Combating the 'Dick Grayson was the ray of sunshine" by going "Dick was actually an angry kid! Jason thought Robin was magic."
None of the Robins were "The Angry Robin" They all had varying emotions, and boiling them down to one extreme or the other is just not embracing the character in the entirety.
I prefer Captain Marvel cause it’s just such a fun concept that when he says this very particular word he transforms.
I think it just opens up a lot of different possibilities about how people fight him considering he’s nearly immortal. Like, if he can only transform saying Shazam if he wants to transform, then how do people force him into transforming back to Billy when they want to defeat him in combat?
It’s just more interesting if he can’t ever say such a specific word without either revealing his identity or becoming vulnerable (or both)
This is mostly a joke but uh
Every time someone calls SHAZAM captian marvel I mentally go "why are you dead naming him?"
...until the start of Cass Cain week 2025!
