So whenever I’m in desperate need of sleep, I hmushear things a lot. So now I’m presenting a leep deprived Tim be hearing things.

Batman: I need you pick up the cocaine samples for analysis.

What Tim heard: I need you to beat up David Cain till paralysis

Tim: …

Tim: not sure why you’re asking me but okay

✨one montage later✨

Red Robin, posts a picture of a visibly injured David Cain, aka, wanted assassin on numerous fronts with the caption “@thedarknight this good?”

Bruce: …

JL: 😟

Cass: 🥰

YJ: 🫡

Shiva: *proud*

The internet: 🤯

——

Bruce: Lure the Riddler out for me

What Tim heard: Take the Riddler out for tea

Tim, sleep deprived logic: Makes sense

Later, in the middle of a warehouse on a table filled with tea and snacks

Riddler: I don’t know what this is, but this is quite a nice change of pace

Red Robin: *shrugs*

-

Bruce: Carmin’s on the loose

What Tim heard: Arm a goose

Tim: do we have any? Never mind I got this

One week later a goose in a RR uniform with a knife in its beak proceeds to chase around villains. There has never been a more effective way to fight crime.

Bruce: …

Tim: 😏

Damian: teach me how to do that?

Later, Red Goose would proceed to take over and protect Gothams ponds, keeping them safe from crime.

I love reporter Billy, but consider this: Billy becoming an architect to fix the Rock of Eternity (ROE)

Here’s the thing about the Rock. They used to have a council, people filling their halls and people who would maintain their infrastructure.

Now there is only a ghost of a (singular) council member and the new champion.

It’s also been who knows how many centuries or millennia Roe was renovated, and no one fixed them after the battle that led to the end of the council. So they are not in good shape. The wizard was holding on by a thread, that’s how damaged they were.

Billy, having grew up with Roe as their most stable place to stay, of course noticed. He’s read the books in the Library of Eternity, has seen the scriptures of the ancient civilisations and saw the carvings on the walls of the people who used to walk here.

Having grown up homeless, Billy knew the foundations of what makes a building safe to stay in. He’s even renovated a few abandoned apartments to make it livable once he’s learned how to use magic. Which in turn, may have inspired him to study architecture.

Roe is in shambles when they meet their new champion. Roe expects to remain in that state of disrepair for the foreseeable future. What Roe didn’t see coming is the sheer dedication of the child they helped raise.

A thing about Fawcette is that there’s a mix of serval centuries style through out the city, mostly because of time distortion and well as magic and runes instilled in the buildings. Meaning they have one hell of an architect program.

Not only does Billy preserve and off the natural foundations, but he also adds new designs, carved stone to incorporate beautiful pieces to adorn the halls. Adds new runes to help Roe sustain themself better, for the magic to run smoothly. Roe is no longer in shambles. No longer unpolished and full of grime a reminder of an ancient past, and starts to resemble more on how they unused to be. Cared for, strong and carved of stone.

Just, adult Billy as an architect. And using that knowledge + magic to fix up Roe. And Roe being an ancient sentient being that feels like they finally get to have multiple spa days after centuries of abandonment.

Also an architect has a way more flexible schedule than most jobs, allowing Billy to do his Champion and Hero duties at his pace.

For some reason, in so many Naruto time travel fics, they always try to prevent the Uchiha massacre by preventing the idea of an Uchiha coup. And I’m out here thinking. Would it have been so bad if the Uchiha did do a coup? Considering the ones in power were horrifically incompetent (Hiruzen Sarutobi), horrifically corrupt (the Elders) and just evil (Danzo). So many issues could have been resolved had Itachi and Shisui not gotten involved.

The Uchiha held military power in military village. It really wouldn’t have been hard to assume power after the death of the third hokage and his three main evil advisors. Especially Danzo.

Also, Mikoto is often theorised to be Naruto’s godmother. Ain’t no way she didn’t know exactly who his parents are. With Hiruzen down, she has no more obstacles that could prevent her in taking Naruto in.

Hiruzen Sarutobi did not have a handle on his own village or his own forces. He should have made someone Hokage who he knows would have done a good job.

His main issue was trusting those around him when he really shouldn’t have. He no longer had the means to evaluate who is trustworthy and who wasn’t.

But do you know who had the ability to gain that information? Jiraiya, a literal spy master. He would have put those skills and frogs to work, root out Danzos ROOT and schemes. The Uchiha would have never been shunned if he got wind of the smear campaign. AND he would have had custody of Naruto, aka the resident junchuuriki, aka the ninja equivalent of a nuclear bomb. Naruto would have also been in a safe enough situation where his heritage could be revealed (giving Jiraiya and extra PR boost as his guardian).

Anyways, I remembered that Naruto existed and decided to ramble.

My cousin just started aot and is at the part where he’s learning that Titans eat people but they don’t need to eat. They also don’t target animals.

The little genius then proceeds to ask “why not just disguise themselves as animals?”

I had to pause on this because 1. EPIC reference goes hard, and 2. would it actually work???

If they put on some sheep or cow or horse, or whatever dead animal they got, they could disguise themselves from the eyes, and the dead animals would block the smell.

So I’m out here wondering if this is an actual last ditch strategy that could have worked on the titans or did I miss some sort of reasoning from the manga?

The Justice League mingling before their meeting

Captain Marvel, crashing through: CYBORG QUICK, I NEED YOU TO FIX IT

Marvel being iconic

Just a thought of where Marvels main brand is being the most girly pop hero in the jl.

Like all the JL are iconic and they have their fair share of fanmade edits, but Marvels are just elite. He is the IT girl, the one who will regularly do themed costume changes on random intervals, he calls it as he sees it and is very ACAB.

Examples of clips is when he brought a fidget spinner to a …

Or the fact he uses squiggly glitter pens every time people ask him to write things down

Or when during a UN conference, he was just side eyeing Adam the whole time. Bro is not subtle.

Or the fact that he literally dwarfs over the Justice League (not including Big Barta).

In any case, he’s litteraly a social media icon. And because of that, Batman gave him access of twitter. He becomes more popular. If you want to see how it goes, see this series: https://archiveofourown.org/series/3296761

I love it so much, I reread it all the time.

Bonus:

Here’s one of the clips of Cap that made him viral. It’s of that time he found the suicide squad beating up the Joker.

SQ: …

Joker, beat up: …

Marvel, the only hero on scene: …

Marvel: oh no! An injured civilian

Riddler, who just wanted to go to Fawcette to riddle with some trolls: …

Riddler, mildly injured: … oh?.. Oh! .. OH THE PAIIIIIN

Police officer on scene: uh Captain… that’s the riddler

Marvel: Nuh uh, the Riddler has a green hat with a question mark and a cane. This fine gentleman is simply in a Green suit.

Harley Quinn, chocking the Joker: he’s a poor injured civilian

Riddler: yeah, I’m a poor injured civilian

Marvel, scoops riddler: up up and away

Police officer:

Reporter on scene:

SQ, still beating up the Joker:

Bonus 2:

Red Hood, somewhere: Something just happened

Oracle, already finding the source: oh tonight’s movie night is going to be amazing.

Signal: I’ll get the popcorn.

That time Catwoman became a Captain Marvel rogue.

Catwoman canonically steals out of Gotham, and has done multiple sabbaticals (heist world tour) on multiple occasions. So picture this:

Billy meeting Selina during a heist

Billy: is there to get a magical artifact that’s wayyy too dangerous to be left in a museum because obviously an evil magician is going to steal it for world domination. He goes as Billy because Cap can’t be seen doing crime.

Catwoman: a cat themed necklace of super importance or whatever. It doesn’t matter, it’s old, pretty and cat related so she has to take it.

They are not in Gotham.

Billy has no idea who Catwoman is, just that she has a magical aura around her (it’s because she steals a lot of magical items on accident).

Billy thinks Selina is an evil wizard hoarding cat themed powerful artictifactd and is apparently a known criminal(?). He should talk to Batman, he knows stuff about people, surely that won’t backfire (… right?)

Selina thinks Billy is an up and coming burglar (and she’s kinda right in that regard).

Selina wonders if she should get this kid as an apprentice (maybe son depending wether or not he’s an orphan)

Bonus:

Batman is conflicted. On one hand, he’s loosing his favourite rogue. On the other hand, his maybe love interest is getting along with his maybe kid.

Batman plots on how to lure them both to Gotham.

His kids behind him are concerned. Alfred is just done.

Bonus 2:

Tawky Tawny joins in on one of Billy’s heists in his tiger form (mostly because they are in a dangerous place and wants to protect him in his small form).

Selina sees this.

Selina is so going to adopt that kid, even if it’s the last thing she does. Maybe she should ask Batman for tips. That won’t backfire (… right?)

[moonlightcycle571]

Trust me, no one is trying to convince you otherwise.

They are soulmates your honour.

the bride and nina were in love with each other and you cannot convince me otherwise <3

[moonlightcycle571]

I like to imagine Billy and Thavma sharing a headspace is more akin to drifting (Pacific Rim) then it is the avatar state (ATLA).

If you know you know.

[moonlightcycle571]

Lmao Flash (which I’m assuming is Barry) and GL (which I’m assuming is Hal Jordan) are going to be deeply invested in this to the point they start to unknowingly raise Billy.

At some point the various school administrations think the two are gay dads trying to raise their wayward son.

If Billy ever calls them ‘dad’ they will think it’s sarcastic or an inside joke.

When Billy gets revealed, you bet the two will be in too deep, this officially adopting them. (Whether this is platonic or romantic HalBarry is up for interpretation).

School

Billy hasn’t gone to school in years. naturally, he’s curious about others experiences with it.

Marvel: “You’ve gone to school?”

Flash: “Yes? You sound surprised about that?”

Marvel: “What’s it like at school?”

Flash: “It’s boring. Really boring.”

Marvel: *sounds disappointed* “Oh.”

GL: “Cap, have you never gone to school before?”

Marvel: “Nope!”

Flash: “Not even in Ancient Greece? You were born around that time, right?”

Marvel: “What? No??”

GL and Flash: *share a look*

GL: “Cap, how old are you?”

Marvel: “Chronologically?”

Flash: “Yes?”

Marvel: “It’s between 92 and a hundred thousand.”

GL: “That uh… doesn’t really give us much to work with, man.”

Marvel: “Let’s just go with 92.”

Flash: “So you’re saying that during your 92 years of living, possibly more, you’ve never even stepped foot into a school?”

Marvel: “Well, I went all the way up until I was eight.”

GL: “That doesn’t really make it better.”

Flash: “Maybe we can work something out with Black Canary?”

Marvel: “What?”

Flash: “Well, she manages the kids on the team. She tells them to go to school and stuff so who’s to say she couldn’t find a way to make you go to school too? She’s resourceful like that.”

That’s how Billy ended up going to school as Marvel while shapeshifted into Billy.

Flash and GL: *dropping Billy off at a school in their civies*

GL: “You’re such a cute kid, man!” *pinches his cheek*

Marvel: “Dude, stop!” *slaps his hand away*

GL: “Alright alright, fine.”

Flash: “Have a good day at school!”

Later…

Flash, GL, Marvel: *all walking to a zeta tube while munching on hotdogs*

Flash: “So, Cap- er Mark, how was school?”

Marvel: *takes a bite so he can chew in silence for a bit* “I got expelled.”

Flash and GL: “WHAT?!”

[moonlightcycle571]

Happy new years 🥳🥳🥳

New Years Resolution? Finally clear out my drafts by developing all the ideas in there.

Might take a whole year though.

[moonlightcycle571]

Flash: Holy shit Cap! How did you break your foot???

Marvel: oh you know, villains right?

Superman: wait there’s a villain strong enough to break your bones?

Marvel, shrugs: it happens

WonderWoman: this is a serious concern

Marvel: it’s not like I’m using it, I can fly until it’s good

Batman: *furiously searching security cameras to find out how the foot broke*

So naturally everyone has theories on how it happened, from villain attacks to magical world ending disaster he could have prevented.

Meanwhile, the truth

Freddy: How did it happen?

Billy: so you know how the trash collection truck comes early in the morning?

Freddy: … yeah

Billy: I forgot to take out the trash

Billy: when running with the bins, I hit my foot on the coffee table

Billy: I managed to bring out the bins, but I broke my foot in the process

Billy: when I told the gods what happened, they just laughed at me for half an hour

Billy: Solomon said that if he transferred my injury to my Marvel form, it would cut the healing time :(

[moonlightcycle571]

Yessssss, finally a CC Batson fic! He just wants to go home t his wife 😭

@alexilove7 I think you’ll like this

https://archiveofourown.org/works/47083669

I just finished reading

and Im just imagining that in the time between Tim and Damian being closer and Bruce coming back, the public has just started calling Damian the "Drake's boy". As in he's Damian Drake rather than Damian Wayne.

Dick's too busy with cases and what not to even look at the media, Alfred is much the same, and Bruce comes back too focused on catching up on case work to even bother with media.

So when Bruce makes a public appearance after being pronounced dead for a year, the media still continues to call Damian Tim's kid. Because Tim still picks Damian up from school, he still goes to Tim's apartment or office after school, or Tim picks him up early. Tim is also still registered as Damian's first contact.

At a gala, the Waynes are shocked, well, minus Damian and Tim. Damian's gotten his last name switched to Drake at school to further his protection in it.

Random Socialite: Mr. Wayne, it's good to see you back.

Bruce: It's good to be back, yes.

Same socialite: Do you plan to take back custody of Damian soon?

Bruce: What? I already have custody.

Socialite: No, everyone knows he's a Drake. He's Tim Drake's kid.

Bruce is too shocked to speak further, so he goes and asks Dick about it, to which he gets an equally as shocked reaction at the news.

They go ask Tim and Damian, they don't get the response they wanted. Then again, what response did they want?

Bruce: Tim, did you adopt Damian?

Tim: What? No?

Dick: Then why are people calling him your kid? Damian Drake?

Damian: Something happened at school that threatened the family name, mostly me physically, so to protect myself I changed my last name to Drake. Everyone there seems to fear Timothy and his surname so I have changed mine to that that way no one will mess with me or talk bad about us.

Tim: Damian, why didn't you talk to me first? We could've worked this out before you changed your name.

Damian: It doesn't quite matter if I changed it or not, the media already seems to think I am your kid.

At that, they check online and do find that, yes, headlines of Tim potentially adopting Damian and Damian Drake being spotted entering Wayne Enterprises during school hours is shown.

Bruce and Dick don't know how to feel about this, Tim doesn't know whether to laugh at their expressions or gain permanent custody of Damian just because.

[moonlightcycle571]

Hal: -and there it was! A cosmically powerful ring appeared before me, becoming me to greatness

Diana: a sentiment I share all too well. When I took the armour and lasso, and left my island, I knew it was it was for a greater purpose.

Arrow: *nods* its like, when tragedy strikes, so it pushes you to train beyond your limits, and you pick up your weapon, and too see all of us here, it feels like destiny.

*chorus of nods*

Barry: I guess that lightning hitting me was destiny. What about you Captain? What’s your story?

Billy: I took the train.

JL: what?

Billy: I guess I went in willingly, so I wouldn’t call it a kidnapping.

JL: excuse me?

Billy: it was a nice train. I still take it sometimes.

Dinah: and that lead you to getting powers?

Billy: well I guess it all really started when I helped out a homeless guy.

Batman: I see *furiously writing notes*

I love how all these other heroes have such badass origin stories on how they got their powers, and Billy’s is just “I took the train.”

[moonlightcycle571]

Prompt where Captain Marvel is looking after an injured magical creature that can steal the magic off magic users (Billy is immune for reasons). But he needs to deal with the situation and get the creature back to its natural habitat. But he can’t bring it without endangering the JLD, who is helping him out in this one.

Naturally it can’t stay in Fawcette (aka the magic capital) he can’t ask anyone in the magic user, or a normal civilian because the magical creature is still dangerous, even without it sucking out magic.

So he asks the Justice League to babysit. It goes about as well as you can expect.
