"I Was Born A Wound"

"I was born a wound"

This line holds such a wealth of meaning. Because it is both - Cass was born to be hurt. Born to be abused and mishandled and made into something that would tear herself open, tear others open. Cain didn't know it, maybe Shiva didn't know it, but they made a child to give her pain.

And. Cain stole something from Shiva, took from her in a singular moment of weakness, and that memory cannot help but haunt her still. Cass is the moment, given legs and arms and a soul, Cass is that pain walking upright, haunting her all over again. The moment Cass was born, Sandra could never be hurt again, not truly, until all these years later where she has one wound she can never guard. Cassandra the thief, the assassin, the murderer, to take first from her mother before she'd take anything else at all.

Cassandra the innocent. Because she would not be a wound if she could not bleed.

Idea!

Billy is the whizz kid right. So he gives insight on superheroes, previous missions, things that the JL have stepped in to help. And he gives tiny guessed on to what happened.

However the JL especially Batman is losing their balls because of how accurate these "guesses" are. How in the hell did he guess their exact patrol route, placed in roles, and things hidden from the publics Info?

Freddy Freeman is the type of guy ask Billy to hold his crutch, pretend to fall over, then scream “HE STOLE MY CRUTCH!!!!” in public.

For @casscainweek Day 3 (Jan. 22): Silence | Music

What’s it like to listen?

Cassandra did not live in a silent world when David was training. There were many sounds, fists against flesh, gunshots and blades being drawn and wielded.

It was a world she was used to. David never said he was proud, but Cassandra knew he was.

Now, she chooses not to think much about him. He had granted her these skills, but that was all he had given her beyond pain.

The world was louder now, she had to learn what voices were, what type of sound the voices were and what that meant. It was hard. Very hard. And it infuriated her. She wasn’t trained for this.

But, there was one sound she liked. Something that Barbara had given. She named them headphones. They faíce fed her ears and played a soothing tune of gentle… piano, yes.

It was easy to understand. The music was simple, she could close her eyes and focus on it. Barbara wasn’t always understanding, not knowing Cass was trying, and she wasn’t like her.

But this music was nice.

It was nice to have sounds she understood.

————

I hope this is good. I love Cass so much.

Read Superman/Shazam: First Thunder and genuinely cried over it and had the most gut wrenching thought...

Clark's knows exactly how it feels for the world to have their eyes on him always. He knows what it's like for the world to fear him as Superman, and as much as they've come to trust him, the instant Superman acts out or 'has a bad day', he knows he will become the villian. The big scary alien guy with impossible powers who could destroy the world. Even one little outburst, one tiny flicker of anything other than hope and joy, and the trust he's worked so hard to build will crumble.

Billy is young. He's new. He doesn't know this. He acts out in frustration and anger and sarrow, and he doesn't know how to cope with these impossible standards. He's just a little boy who wants to cry and throw things, but Captain Marvel throwing a tantrum could destroy a city. He probably feels like a caged animal, unable to let out any of those feelings, lashing out and running away. He doesn't have the same self-control as Clark and is almost self-destructive in a sense.

Of course, Clark immediately feels strongly about Billy just being a kid. Clark was once a little boy with powers he couldn't fully control and knew exactly how it felt to be teetering on the edge of "everyone hates me, I'm a monster," mindsets. He probably feels so much kinship and understanding, and he gets defensive over it. Clark was so ready to throw hands with the wizard for Billy, then immediately went to Billy to comfort him and be like, "we're both just people. We're the same. You aren't alone."

Sobbing very hard </3.

Dc technically makes the rules, but they lost that right after shipping Cass off to HongKong.

So fuck it, I make the rules now and DAMIAN WAYNE AND CASSANDRA CAIN ARE BOTH AUTISTIC

They both get it from Bruce (idc that Cass isn’t biologically related to Bruce, he birthed her and Damian and THATS FINAL)

Damian and cassandra are autistic siblings I’m sorry I don’t make the rules
