Wonder Woman Vol 1 #600

whatever man, you're a fake creator. you're not playing spore, you're playing something else entirely

i made this anon in spore [2008]

next time show your face

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

So like I do agree that Cass is the most fitting successor to the Batman mantle, and in any universe where Bruce retires that it should go to her. But in any universe where Bruce dies? It's Dick. No doubt in my mind.

And that's very much because the "Batman" mantle is about a trauma you don't, can't move past or recover from. And Dick hasn't wanted that mantle because he's put a lot into growing and moving past his trauma.

But if he loses Bruce? Dick is making the grab for that cowl. Time and again THAT is the trauma he can't move past, the wound that won't heal.

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'm only saying this for your sake, but objectively, it's not a smart idea to bring politics into normal hobbies. You might lose supporters of your blog just because of your political stance, and that would be terrible since you're so amazing!! It's only a suggestion, but I really reccomend not bringing politics into anything.

Thank fuck for melatonin.

Sleeping is stupid.

I need to sleep but I sleep when the sleep is sleeping and idk where I’m going with this sentence I need to fucking slep..

SLEEP IS FOR THE WEAK!!!!!!!! And imm weak

Im going to implode if I don’t sleeep. Good nigjht? More like GOOD RIDDANCEE

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)

I'm so glad I live in a world where there's Archive of Our Own

Stephanie: You know what? When you think about it…. Tim just dipping and randomly popping up with another blonde was fucked up. I deserve better than that shit man.

Cassandra: Yeah, me personally, I could never do that to someone I love… you deserve someone that would never do that to you

Cassandra internally: please take the hint please take the hint please take the fucking hint
