For So Much Of Their Early Relationship Whenever Barbara Is Insensitive To Her Cass Generally Responds

I think you should know that every time you update your drabbles on AO3 somebody alerts everyone in the Divine Discord server like a town crier and we all go “HURRAH!!”

You’re basically a celebrity, I love you please don’t blow up 🙏

One day you take on a fandom you know only by a single movie everyone apparently hates and the next you are vomiting fics for said fandom and learning all kinds of details along the way, always blows my mind to see how much people enjoy my admittedly sometimes wild and flat out random ideas. When I first started writing I didn't even know Billy and Mary were supposed to be twins or who Tawny was or even HOW was Billy's boss called (Mr. Morris), I just threw anything that came to mind without expecting actual feedback. Never in my wildest dreams did I expect it to blow up as it did

Very grateful for all the support and positive feedback from my readers ⚡🌟🐅⚡🌟🐅 Gonna keep that screenshot if you don't mind, haven't been this popular since the day I was born

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.

everyone in the jla is shocked when a group of aliens bow down to billy as he's the champion of magic and they also use magic

worldbuilding: the threequel

I've seen a lot of fics disappear from my bookmarks, some 10+ years old, because they were added to an unrevealed collection. It makes me wonder if people realize what your fic being added to a collection actually means and if the authors approved it automatically without realizing what would happen.

If someone adds your fic to their collection, they can hide it! They can mark the collection as unrevealed and your fic will be unreadable to anyone other than them! If you're writing works for a surprise event, like a Secret Santa, this is really nice.

But if you're just writing and someone adds your fic to a collection for their own personal use and marks it as unrevealed, that. . . really sucks.

I bookmarked this fic in 2017, almost 5 years ago. Knowing me, the fic itself was probably at least a couple years old at the time I bookmarked it.

This is a 5+ year old fic that is completely inaccessible now because it was added to a collection that, as far as I can tell, is literally just for the collection owner's own reference. There's almost 30 fics in the collection, all of them unrevealed.

Please don't blindly accept collection requests and if your works ARE in a collection, make sure that they aren't being hidden without your knowledge or consent.

Reblog if you think asexuality is a legitimate sexuality.

I'm trying to prove something.

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.

It's really funny that Cass and Steph patrol as a pair. Like, Cass? We all know she doesn't need back up. So everyone just assumes Steph's there BC she's weak.

Steph, trained by Cassandra, Batman, Barbara, and iirc Shiva? Stephanie Brown who Black Canary says reminds her of herself. Stephanie Brown who's the only one Cassandra will listen to at times.

Steph doesn't need Cass for patrol, Cass needs Steph there to keep her grounded to reality and not spiral into self destruction.

I don’t watch house md and I never will but I’m very interested in what those two old gay men have going on

ALRIGHT GUYS! TIME TO PUT IT TO A VOTE CAUSE I SEE TOO MANY VERSIONS!
