Me: I should write more stuff about Maggie, her mother and their relationship...

Also me: *has her drafts full of headcanons about Hank and Maggie*

What should I say? I just love them and their relationship together. Hank and his dad vibes are killing me. He would be such a good father to his kids! And it's so sad that we barely see any good father child relationships especially in marvel. Yeah i know we barely see any kind of parent child relationships because most of the time they're dead or whatever but with fathers it's even less. Like i can think of more sweet mother child relationships than father child relationships. (Talking mostly about the mcu cause i have barely read any comics yet but still)

The only good fathers I can think of from the top of my head are: Tony, Clint, Scott, Drax, Kamala's dad, Cassie's stepdad and T'Chaka that's it. Some would say Odin but tbh I don't think of him as a good dad especially if you think of Loki and Hela.

But mother child relationships? We got kamala's mom, Pepper, Frigga, Ramonad, Maria, Wanda, Laura Barton, Janet Van Dyne, Meredith Quill, Ying Li, Melina Vosokoff, the mom of Cassie Lang, Tony's mom, Nakia. Even Kate's mom. I know she did very bad things but you can't deny she was a good mother to Kate. I also read a little about Jubilee as mother. Not to forget aunt May! I know she's actually the aunt but she still stepped up as peter's mother and literally raised him, so I let this count.

The most father child realtionship were mostly shitty and/or absent in one way or another... And those good ones we do have are mostly cut short and they were never really able to be the dad they could have been. I mean Tony? Died when Morgan was like 4. Scott? Prison and then gone for 5 years. Drax? His child was killed and even if he would have been a good dad we never saw his relationship with his daughter not even in flashbacks or whatever. Also comic Kurt could have been such an amazing dad. But nooooo, Marvel said let's not do that and take his child away. So all we have left are Clint, Kamala's dad and T'Chaka. That's really sad.

And that's why most of the time I focus more on the father child relationships in my headcanons and stories. Because the males of marvel deserve to also be shown as good dads!

I don't care what anyone says but a good father is just as important to a child and this whole bad!dad trope is getting so annoying. Dads deserve to be shown as the good ones too! And kids deserve to have a good father in their lives.

Looking for an FC for adult Maggie. These are the ones I'm considering. For young Maggie I use Teagan Croft as FC, mostly of her as Raven from Titans because of the hair color. Maggie has blue hair because of the mutation she inherited from her father.

Alexandra Daddario

Michelle Trachtenberg

Felicity Jones

Emilia Clarke

Amanda Seyfried

Imogen Poots

Updated FCs

I made some decisions regarding Katya's and Maggie's FCs. That's why I decided to make a new post (old one is here (x))

Katya Rogers:

Main: Red Widow Verse: Where she grew up under HYDRA and the Red Room. Her name in this verse is Yekaterina "Katya" Stepanova Novikova which was changed to Katerina "Katya/Kat" Stevie Rogers after defecting.

Sadie Sink Sophie Turner Rose Leslie

AU: Lady Liberty Verse: Where Steve finds her as an infant and gets to raise her. In this verse her name is Katherine "Katie/Kat" Sarah Rogers. With her ability to change her hair color at will she decided to change her color to blonde to look more like Steve and to hide herself from HYDRA who is looking for her.

McKenna Grace Kirsten Dunst

Secondary: Will be used for both verses, especially in the Lady Liberty verse, where she is the main FC for teen Katie.

Dakota Fanning

Maggie McCoy:

Live Action:

Teagan Croft India Eisley Alexandra Daddario

Comic/Animation:

Raven/Rachel Roth Pouder/Jinx

Delilah's Dryad Form

Maggie's Beast Form

Unlike Hank, Delilah and Maggie can shift between their human and their dryad/beast appereance. However, Maggie hasn't learned to control her shifting abilities yet so it sometimes happens that she shifts against her will.

In her beast form Maggie is also furry but not as furry as her father. It's more like the velvet fur of Kurt. Her mother on the other hand isn't furry.

What does the name of Maggie "Phantasma" mean? Why did you gave her that name?

Oooohhh that's a good question!

Okay this is going to be a long post.

So first of all when I looked for an alias for her I wanted something that Maggie herself would give herself, which means something that would fit her abilities, personality, interests but also story. I didn't wanted to just give her the name Shadow or Phantom cause none of them were something I thought yes that's it. None of them really fit to the whole spectrum of her. I was also considering to name her Ghost or Echo but they were already taken and for I wanted a name that didn't existed yet in Marvel. Besides that with them I also kinda had the same problem like I had with Shadow and Phantom, it didn'tincluded everything. Then I googled for synonyms and found the words "Phantasma" and "Phatasmagoria.

So here we go: (Btw I kinda just translated the german wiki page of phantasma here cause there's no real english wiki page to it. For Phantasmagoria I took the infos from wikipedia and an article I found while looking this up I linked them down there too)

Phantasma is in short a product of fantasy as a delusive appearance, illusion, ghost, specter or a figment of the imagination in short: Something that is seen or imagined but is not real. The word comes from ancient Greek and means something like: appearance, image, idea/imagination, face or a sign sent by the deity, miracle, dream image with and without a dream, ghost, spirit and can be a also used as synonym for well phantom or ghost. It refers to a mental, inner imagination in the sense of a fantasy or mirage. In the German-speaking world, phantasma refers to a perception-like scenic condition, psychiatrically something like illusion, pseudohallucination and hallucination. The word is considered little used and antiquated. It has a negative function, such as forgetting and repressing things, but can also be viewed from the perspective of self-assertion and rebellion against unworthy circumstances. In French psychiatry, phantasma generally means something like a pictorial scene in which the person concerned realizes a wish or unconscious wish. In this respect it is the same as daydreaming. The term plays an important role in the context of Jacques Lacan's psychoanalysis, where it describes a certain form of imaginary fantasy. The term phantasma has a long tradition, particularly in philosophy, and was already used by Aristotle in the sense of a mental “image”. It roughly corresponds to what we understand today as fantasy or imagination. “Imagination” means the ability to produce mental images, while phantasma refers to the images themselves produced by the imagination. – In ancient times, techniques for better memorization were based on the principle of sensualization (mnemonics). Therefore, memory contents were viewed as memory images (ancient Greek phantasmata, Latin imagines). A form of phantasma is also hallucination, in which the phantasma is not recognized as a phantasma but is confused with an external sensory perception. Lacan uses phantasma to describe the psychological representation of an object or a situation that the subject remembers visually. The phantasma thus belongs to the register of the imaginary. Phantasma is therefore a form of defense. The development of a phantasma is often based on traumatic experiences, which are, however, warded off and reinterpreted in the image presented. Behind the individual phantasmatic image there is ultimately a “fundamental phantasma” on which the identity of the subject and the forms of his desire are based.

"Phantasmagoria" on the other hand is a form of horror theatre that (among other techniques) used one or more magic lanterns to project frightening images. During the show scenes and stories were performed with the use of magic lanterns and rear projections to create dancing shadows and frightening theatrical effects. These lively, interactive events incorporated storytelling, mythology, and theater in a single art form that entertained while providing a space for thinking about the otherworldly-playing with the viewers’ anxieties regarding death and the afterlife. In many shows, the use of spooky decoration, total darkness, (auto-)suggestive verbal presentation, and sound effects were also key elements. The shows started under the guise of actual séances in Germany in the late 18th century and gained popularity through most of Europe (including Britain) throughout the 19th century. The word "phantasmagoria" has also been commonly used to indicate changing successions or combinations of fantastic, bizarre, or imagined imagery.

When I read about all of this I instantly thought this is it! Cause it fits so many of her abilities, her story but also interests of philosophy, psychology and theater. It was also perfect that Phantasma is used as synonym for phantom/ghost/illusion cause in her story that's kinda how she's always described as a ghost an illusion or phantom a horror story but nothing that really exist etc. Another reason was in her story she couldn't remember her life before HADES or who she was for a very long time and she also had lots of traumatic experiences that made her to the person who she is today and kinda "created" her. She also rebelled against unworthy circumstances as she was the one who destroyed HADES and she also works like some sort of defense as she tries to protect everyone from what is left of HADES so no one has to suffer the same fate she had too and in the same moment she tries to repress her memories of HADES and what happened to her there.

So that's why I went with Phantasma, cause it conected so many aspects of her in one name.

Now that I started to read the comics I'm so happy and glad that I decided to write Maggie's story like it is with no mentions of any canon situations or anything like that. This allows me to fit her into the mcu but also the comics and I can leave everything about her story like it is.

And because of her abilities she can even travle through the multiverse and time and pop up in any time and verse I want her to be. Even if in her story at the time she was with HADES or on the run. It's just present Maggie who travled to the past or the future or another universe.

That kid can be everywhere I want her to be!

BTW I don't consider the "MCU earth is earth 616" thingy as canon. For me it was just an easter egg and Mysterio just said some random numbers without knowing what he was talking about. Earth 616 is only the comic earth and MCU earth is still earth 199999. In my eyes the MCU can't be earth 616 because they changed too many things there and for me as soon as there's just one single change no matter how minor it is it's another universe and another earth.

Okay but what if I would also use Powder from lol as FC for Maggie in her comic verse?

And maybe I use Jinx for an AU verse where things went differently in her story and instead of finding her home, family and peace she went mad. I mean one of her nicknames is also Jinx sooo.
