Added Rosa to the lineup!! 🌹💕❤️
She’s such a sweet and loving mother figure to all her children and is a big believer in second chances. She’s got some pretty artsy hobbies and loves her husband Victor! :D
Also her dress? I have no idea if anything like that dress exists in real life, but I figured it would be a cute sweetheart cut neckline with a nude mesh for the long sleeves. Then the design on the skirt kinda is supposed to give a rose petal vibe to it. SooOo yeah! :D
(Close up below)
And last but certainly not least is Darla!! 💜⚡️
I might have to give her another outfit because the overalls are cute, but all the other siblings are for sure giving like autumn/winter time cozy kinda outfits.
The overalls are cute but they’re more spring/summer time especially with the Philadelphia weather!! >_< 🩷
I think next I’ll either design Rosa and Victor or I’ll maybe work on some sibling interactions!! ⚡️🍁
(Closeup below)
Okay another update for my character designs so far here is Freddy!!! ⚡️
Hopefully I will get around to drawing Darla tomorrow! :D
Okay I think I finally settled on an art style for them LOL 😭💞
Anyways, here's my designs for Billy and Mary so far, they're so girly pop slay~ ⚡️
Btw for anyone who reads the tags
#Shazam:CoBL is my working tittle for this version of the characters.
It stands for Shazam: City of Brotherly Love. Because the story takes place in Philadelphia, and it's about found family like why would you NOT use that title. It’s lovely.
Work in progress low res screenshot of my version of the Shazamly!! ⚡️
I mostly formatted my WIP like this because I am in between art styles right now and just drawing for the sake of fun atm before I settle on a style >_>
But so far we got Mary,Billy,Freddy, and Darla!
Writing below!! ✍️📝💞💗🌷
Ok so in my version of the story Mary and Billy are both 15. Mary is a few months older. Freddy is 17. And Darla is 13. I mostly just want to focus on these 4 characters since I think having 6 siblings is a lot,,, I think I can build a really good dynamic between these 4 and have them all get a good amount of development and interactions!!
~
We got Billy who is the main character obs. He’s gonna have a reserved personality at first and slowly slide more towards a friendly, bold, and impulsive personality. Especially once he gets comfortable with the other siblings. He can be reckless at times, especially when building off ideas with Freddy. However, he does have a strong moral compass that keeps him grounded.
Mary is his complete and total opposite. She’s a very anxious goody two shoes who tries to keep her siblings out of trouble. She gets overwhelmed easy, and relies on her siblings to bring her back to reality and calm her mind when needed.
Freddy is the most social sibling. In this version he’s kinda a grifter. Kinda like now in the nu52 when he was selling forged doctor notes to kids. He does things like that. But, he’s very extroverted and a lot of people know him for his colorful reputation. He loves being the oldest of the group using his influence both for fun and mischief.
And Darla is pretty much who she always is. The youngest, the sweetest, the one who expresses her love for her siblings the most. She’s very kind and she works hard to empathize with others. She’s the first to help misunderstandings and resolve other’s conflicts, especially when her siblings are fighting.
Hopefully I will draw them all together soon!! 💞
This is my version of Mary Bromfield. ^_^
Right now I’ve just been experimenting with how I would write my own version of the Shazam origin stories and what modifications I could make to the character dynamics to make it my own. As of right now I deciding to change the sibling lineup a little bit to make Mary and Billy closer in age. I think that this would really emphasize both of their personalities, him being a bold, humorous trouble maker. And then her being a shy, wallflower kinda girl who tries to keep herself out of trouble.
This puts Freddy as the oldest sibling, which I’m not really sure how much I like that idea so far. Maybe he could kinda use his goofy nature to have a good older brother dynamic with the other kids. Idk I’m still working on it.
If you have any ideas or suggestions for this storyline please comment below!! ^_^ ⚡️💗
Neurodiversity strikes again with my Shazam! Hyper-fixation,,,,
Here’s my take on the character of Billy Batson. It’s kinda mostly based off of the 2019 film but also a little bit on the new52 comics soo yeah >_> ⚡️
Lol this is actually my first time drawing a superhero so it’s kinda outside of my normal comfort zone
billy: " you cant adopt me! im already over 50!!!! you cant adopt me even if im a- even if i look like a kid!!! I HAVE A FAMILY!! CHILDREN!! i also have an apartment!!! so leave me aLOONEEE "
jl member: " are you SURE???? "
billy: " DO YOU WANT TO SEE MY BIRTH CERTIFICATE ??! "
Billy only ages in his town. Everywhere else he can’t age. Why? Easy magic, with the RoE in Fawcett the magic in the air is at an all time high. Billy’s (and most fawcett citizens) bodies can now only grow/age if there is a high enough magic in the atmosphere.
This would be funny if a fawcett citizen moved away before the time bubble but still experienced the town magic. Which basically makes him immoral.
I think it would be funny if it was Alfred. Like he wanted to be near some of his old war buddies so he lived in Fawcett for a few years. Then he moves to Gotham for some reason and that’s why he looks like he never ages.
So when Alfred and Captain Marvel meet they pull that one spider man meme. It just ends up as a gossip tea session between the two (and a way that billy could take food without being to suspicious).
BACK TO BILLY. This would mean that he would be stuck as a child if any of the JL tried to adopt him. So, when he is revealed he uses that as an excuse for why they can’t adopt him.
Billy can see who the descendants of past Champions are. This opened up a new world for him.
Past Champion: Billy! My great-great(×10)-granddaughter is there!
Billy turns his head and sees a little old lady crossing the street.
Past Champion: Go help her!
Billy helps her home while listening to stories about her grandchildren. Past Champion chirps happily while the others grumble.
Then Billy joins the League. He holds back a surprised yelp when he sees the aura around Barry, Victor, and freaking Bruce Wayne!! The Champions scream like little girls when they see their descendant defeat a villain.
Bruce's Grandfather: Look at my grandson! He took them all!!
Barry's Grandfather: No, look at my grandson! He's faster than anyone!
Victor's Grandfather: I know my grandson is better than all of you idiots.
Bruce's Grandfather: Now I know who he takes after.
And it's constant. Day and night, the Champions in Billy's head tell him about their grandchildren. Billy is honestly tired of it. Moreover, the Champions' memories have slowly penetrated his memory, so he sometimes begins to confuse the past with the present.
Marvel: *looks very closely at the puzzle that will open a portal to the world of chocolate bunnies*
Batman: Are you going to look at this for long?
Marvel: *waves it off* Borkut, daddy's busy, go play with your brothers.
Batman: *blinks in shock and looks at Captain* But...
Marvel: Dad's working, I promise to take you to Aunt Hestia tomorrow. Let me work, son.
Batman: *steps aside*
Marvel: *nods in satisfaction*
Also, the memories bring up emotions that Billy can't hide.
Marvel: *looks out the window at Earth with a sad expression*
Superman: Marvel? Is everything okay?
Marvel: *has a memory in his head of when one of the past Champions was married to a very powerful sorceress. They often flew around the Earth. The wife looked very beautiful in the rays of the sun*
Marvel: I think I miss my wife.
Clark doesn't know how to react to this statement. Did Marvel have a wife? Was he married? Clark didn't know what to say to Marvel at that moment, so he just stood there in silent support.
Billy ended up becoming more of a parental figure to some of the heroes.
One day, Zatanna walks into the Watchtower and sees Marvel.
Zatanna: G-g-grandpa?!
Marvel: Zatanna! *hugs her and starts spinning her* Grandpa missed you! Oh my god! You have your grandma's eyes!
The League was on the sidelines, picking up their jaws.
been having horrible coughs lately so I hereby think that if billy was sick and it carried over to captain marvel and he REALLY needed to cough but he can't because he's doing something important/doesn't want to bother anyone maybe. but the moment he's out of there he tumbles onto the nearest solid ground and lays on his side letting out the most gut-throat scrapping, tears jerking ass coughs ever and it wouldn't really hurt in his cm form but he still feels the pain so deep in bros heart. the gods pats him on the back and give them their condolences (which consist of "damn bro", "just get better", and "honey lemon is good for the throat .. you also need more medicine, and a—")
tawky tawny taking care of sick billy though ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️ freddy and mary sitting next to billy whose bedridden and talking about whatever foes were causing issues because they were filling in for cm and honestly talking about everything and nothing at all☹️☹️☹️ it's. either billy goes through this sickness alone or theu ALL getting it. and you know what they're gonna pick heart emoji
but like. Theres also like a 53% chance that everyone will probably catch that magical ass disease. and if this caused captain marvel to sigh and whip up a hella good soup. oh welll
newly recruited to jl captain marvel just. sitting in his seat in the middle of a justice league meeting and suddenly realizing
'oh jee wilkers. im pretty sure i've(the previous champions) met/married most of these guys' parents/great-great-great-great-greatx10 grandparents. woops'
and hes squinting his eyes trying to play guess who in his head about which relative he's met and or maybe started a relationship with years and years and years ago and is going 'ter-el, hippolyta, yada yada' before his eyes lands on batman and he blinks a few times. and then a few other more times and is like
'??? wait a darn minute is that- holy moly- patrick?? no,, im pretty sure hes dead... is he? might go visit him soon,, uhh. thomas..?? hnn, im pretty sure hes like a baby. but its like the 2000s now right? ehh. maybe dead. probably dead actually- bruce maybe? ... huh. yeah that could work, wait wasn't i thinking about grandparents?'
and then immediately gets distracted into another train of thought. not entirely forgetting, but not really intending his thoughts to go out to the public either. so when its like. years since that thought has popped into his mind. and batman reveals to his identity, captains like
cm; " oh, so i was right in you being bruce wayne! " (recently remembered that train of thought years ago) (never shared that thought to anyone. at all. this just comes out of nowhere just after b-man reveals his identity) and like
batman; " ?? "
jl; " ??? "
au where the suspendium popped when clark had JUST started hero-ing and captain wanted to see who's protecting all the other cities in the country and this is the first time he's talked to superman. he doesnt know lil vros clark,, 💔 the gods do tho and takes advantage of that by giving superman a heart attack
my drawing pen got lost so i went back to my roots and used a mouse to draw this LMAOO its not my best work but its something
NEED there to be like, a party or something after an alien invasion and like someone brought alcohol to the watchtower and like usually captain marvel doesn't drink because ??? billy's like 10 alcohol tastes like absolute chicken butt to him but Zeus is like " drink drink drink " and the other gods(minus Solomon,, someone has to be the rational one there) join in and go " DRINK DRINK DRINK !!! " like they cheering for the Olympus world cup
and captain is like " eh ok sure " and decides to see how much alcohol he could drink in the span of 2 minutes or less. and so that spirals into almost every member of the Justice League witnessing THE Boy Scout™️—that no one has EVER saw drink a drop of wine—chugging down each glass like it's no tomorrow,,, and it's kinda impressive..
of course. captain stops (only because he didn't want to finish it all,,, plus the alcohol he just drank doesn't even taste like the rum from the 1950s,, so, even if it doesn't taste like chicken butt it still doesn't taste great either) but like hey at least the gods were having a blast!!! (they were a bit bummed captain had to stop though) (solomon felt like he could actually breath again after that)
and the jl??? respect the ever living shit out of him because god fucking damn captain marvel just walked off and continued whatever he was doing afterwards like he didn't just chug down fifty glasses of booze,, (he just doesn't have a liver or kidney to damage nor mind to get drunk off LMAOO)
and then they were like . huh. How much liquor can cap hold??? so they all get a bit curious .. and try to see how many more shots could he take ,,, and then it somehow just spirals into a long, nasty competition, one person just straight up bringing a barrel of rum for captain to try
and marvel?? he finds it kinda funny. the alcohol doesn't really affect him anyways and if he just turns off his taste buds he can pretend it's water most of the time. plus a good past time if there's nothing to do. but he does like giving out his thanks and reviews on the taste of it most times
,, and maybe the utmost eagerness that shows in Captain Marvel's face whenever a member wants him to try a very VERY strong concoction full of alcohol that'd probably kill a horse if a sip was taken by a normal civilian and how sincere he is on the way he pats their heads and gives out actual advice on how to improve it (thank you Solomon) was KINDA nice. just a tad bit nice.
oh who's pretending at this point, the competition at the end of the day just waters down into how many drinks??gifts??? the line blurs to a certain point ,, they could give to marvel and to see how many compliments they could get from marvel. they all know at this point that the drinks can't really affect him anyways. plus plus!!! captain would give the extra rum leftover into a tiny-ish water bottle made of magic and brings it with him everywhere, strapped to his waist like fanny pack. no one questions this. we love you capdad
(most of the gods living rent free in cm's head fucking cheer when one day billy gets gifted booze that could affect the gods)
Billy and Danny are planning wedding with each other because of the observers
They consider Billy as a champion of magic to be too powerful by himself
And they consider Danny as the Ghost came in ancient space is being too powerful to be by himself
So they're married each other because apparently they balance each other out
Could Justice League because of this thing it's an arranged marriage that both of them are really unhappy with
It just them being unhappy with the observers especially Danny this could be tied in with the reverse Persephone thing
Like Billy is really happy with it because the gods are all supportive and Danny is dealing with her the butting heads in the fall of the ancients and observers
I may have misunderstood the question. Sorry( ・ั﹏・ั)
Marvel: You're invited to my and the Phantom's wedding! *holds out invitations to each hero*
Barry: What do you mean you're not married?!
Marvel: It was just an engagement. You know, meeting the parents and stuff. The Observants were really pushing for us to get married. Something about balance, I think.
Batman: The Observants?
Marvel: Yeah, those idiots.
Danny: *hisses* Why are you jumping in ahead of time?!
Observants: Danny Fenton and Billy Batson may not be married yet....
Observants: But Phantom and Captain Marvel should get married....
Observants: For the balance of the universe.
Danny: *covers face with hands and groans*
Observants: *wait calmly*
That's not how Danny wanted to marry Billy. He was planning something romantic, and only when he graduated. Only the Observers disrupted all his plans. Danny was then grabbed by the arms and placed in front of Billy. Then the Observers said that the engagement had been approved and the wedding date had already been chosen. It was a shock to Billy, but it was Danny who was most shocked.
Phantom: They didn't give me a choice, you know? I wanted everything to be romantic. So that the one I love is really admired. But they bring me to him and tell me that everything has already been decided!
Superman: This is terrible! Why did they do this to you?
Phantom: Like I know. They're all assholes who don't respect anyone. It's good that Marvel understood me when I explained everything to him.
Superman thought that the Phantom was being forced into an engagement with Marvel. And the fact that these two are not very happy about it. Clark now disliked the Observants a little for what they had done to Phantom and Marvel. Forced marriage is always very bad.
While Danny was fighting with the Observants, Billy was very happy that he was marrying Danny. That is, Captain Marvel marries the Phantom. But Billy is Captain Marvel, so it's okay. Today the Captain and the Phantom, tomorrow Billy and Danny. He considered it a victory.
Zeus: I can ask Dionysus to provide alcohol.
Solomon: We want to celebrate quietly, and not turn everything into a binge and an orgy.
Achilles: We should have a fight with the Observants as a competition.
Hercules: I agree. You can also beat Adam.
Atlas: Isn't he our best man?
Mercury: Billy's best man, Marvel's punching bag.
Billy: Guys, we were choosing a menu.
Persephone: Why didn't anyone tell me that my beloved nephew was getting married?!!?
Hades: Run, you fools!!
Preparations for the wedding were in full swing. Billy and Danny were going crazy over the preparations. The league was going crazy about the upcoming wedding. The observers made sure that everything went well.
On the wedding day, Marvel had a lot more gold hanging on him than before and his whole appearance was more majestic. The phantom was blinding in its beauty. A ring of rage glittered on his finger and a crown of fire burned with a green flame. Phantom and Marvel looked great together, as if they were made for each other. As much as the League dislikes this marriage, they admit that Phantom and Marvel balanced each other out.
The ceremony begins.....
....Another alien invasion is taking place on Earth.
It's like a wedding without a fight, right?
My collection of Billy batson and mini-marvel. In paper bcs im lazy
shazam but everytime billy says his magical word his transformation scene plays out like a magical girl transformation with the background music and everything its usually really quick too but everyone in the vicinity can hear a very sped up toon of billy transforming and they think " oh! captain marvels here! " like its the ice cream truck but they never seem to notice the quick jingle that plays when billy detransforms
(but you’ll make the same old mistakes)
New person, same old mistakes — Tame Impala (my goat)
Billy in a real tight spot and begging the Divine twitch chat for help
Divine Twitch Chat: sorry buddy but your the doomed by the narrative (Fs in chat)
Billy: DIDN’T SOME YOU GUYS CREATE THE BIG BANG OR SOMETHING?? JUST CHANGE THE NARRATIVE
Divine Twitch Chat: F
i can see it.
zeus voice thats my streamer captain marvel (TRANSCRIPTS BELOW THE CUT!)
bonus: they stay with him while he’s billy
Keep reading
do you think if billy were to babysit babies/watch over them for overworked parents, probably to get some money and they were to watch movies. do you think they would watch some sort of movie that was/is matilda the musical and like.
you know that part of the movie where theres a line called "my mommy says im a miracle!" what if billy would giggle at that line and call the babies hes babysitting a little miracle if the baby were to babble (like,, billy: "Yeah! That's you!! A little miracle :DD") as they both watch it on the tv. and like what if this becomes a habit. because 'a little miracle' is a kinda phrase that sticks to you
and this carries over to captain marvel. and when, for whatever reason, one of the jl or yj members ask what they are to captain marvel he's like
"a little miracle, why? :D"
and that the person whose asking is like. "oh!" because wow thats. wow they have never heard someone say that with such genuineness before. especially one they see as a sorta. father figure thing
and like. they mightve ended up tearing up a little tiny bit afterwards maybe
If they kick Captain Marvel out of the league i will cry.

Captain Marvel is the designated den mother of most, if not all, younger heroes.
He's also seen by the younger heroes as a father or brother figure.
It just makes sense they would be a influence on one another, right?
...Well, now you have a man who everyone is pretty sure is an ancient, immortal being and that regularly says very old, 1940s slang exclaiming: “Let him cook”, and teenagers going “Dude, we need to take a powder!*”
──────────────────────────
While on a mission, Marvel was talking about some random stuff to pass the time — as they all had to wait for the perfect opportunity to strike, and that won't be for a while.
Jr: “Marvel, you're yapping.”
Marvel, stopping mid setence: “No i'm not. Stop the cap.”
Jr, a bit offended at being called a liar in front of the Justice League: “I'm being for real! You were!”
The YJ is trying to contain their laughter, since they are on a much more visible hiding spot, meanwhile the JL is just plain out confused at this. Is this some other old timey slang? What are they saying?
Wally, whispering and snickering to his comm: “Wow Jr? Calling Cap a liar? Boy scout cap?? Negative aura points.”
Jr, gasping: “YOU DID NOT-”
(He gets tackled by one of their targets, as he was distracted)
Mary, who saw that Freddy quickly got the target apprehended, and checked to be sure no other targets were alerted: “Second L in under four minutes, i think that's a new record.”
Jr, jokingly as he gets back up: “Once we're back, you three are cooked.”
──────────────────────────
* → To get away quickly.
Y'know how in the old comics, the 'Cap is a Comic book character' AU is basically canon?
Ok, so. Imagine that in Fawcett, Toonforce is an actual and reacurring thing. And outside of it's universe, it's not. Meanwhile Gothamites and others would pick up Fawcett comics and be like 'Oh wow, that would never happen!' when a character runs a mile in the air before looking down and actually falling, Fawcitizens will pick up a DC book, look at all the real physics and the like, and go 'Huh. That's weird. Why did they fall down immediatly?'
Bonus points if mythical creatures are extremely rare in the DC universe to the point people don't think they exist, meanwhile in Fawcett's universe it's so commonplace to see a unicorn, dragon, griffin or talking animal that they find it curious that on the DC comics they read, there are never any of the creatures present in Fawcett, like, at all. What do you mean there's no talking Tigers with suits walking around? In Fawcett, everyone knows at least one talking animal! (Mostly Tawny)
Also, how would the 'Hero from a literal comic book' go? Would the comics be banned from any viewing to keep secret identities? Since, well, if Lex knew Billy's identity from the comic someone gave to him, what stops the public at large to also know? Would the League let Billy in, on the accounts he's overpowered due to his cartoonish antics? Would they know his identity at all? I mean, he could be just a really good cosplayer. It's a good identity cover!
Imo it would be also very fun to play around the idea of 'Oh yeah, this is our resident Dimension traveller, we keep up with him through the comic books.'
And if they knew, how funny would it be for an ACTUAL comic book character being in your superhero team? Imagine some villain knocks Cap down, for sure that he's done for, only to look behind them and find Cap being all like 'Sheesh! I'm glad i'm not that guy!' and the hole were Marvel once laid in, very injured, is now nowhere to be seen!
Interviewer: “So, are the rumors true? You have a new mysterious League member?”
Superman: “Yes! His name's Captain Marvel, and he was the one to help us out on the latest major villain attack, as some of us were off-world.”
Interviewer: “..Captain Marvel? Isn't that the name of that one comic book character?”
Superman, smiling sheepishly: “Well, Captain Marvel sure is a common superhero name, is it not?”
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.
(Captain Marvel x Pokémon, which i'm planning on putting on AO3 once i'm done with like, 5 chapters or so. This is the WIP of the first chapter.)
Captain Marvel is the brand new Fawcett hero. The man simply showed up one day, and started helping the community, be it with fighting crime or the most mundane things, like helping children find their parents when lost or help a person cross the street. He wasn’t as famous as Batman or Superman, and he even doubted he’d even been heard of outside of Fawcett. He was still very new, after all.
When flying around on patrol, Captain Marvel and Tawny — Who was on the ground, following along — spotted two men cornering an elderly woman in an alley, knives in hand, poised to attack.
“Pass em’, grandma!” One of them ordered, bringing the knife closer to her threateningly. “Give us the necklace and no one gets hurt!” The other thug exclaims, getting closer to rip the necklace off the lady’s neck altogether.
“No, please!” The senior pleaded, “It was a gift from my grandson!” She added, clutching her necklace close to her protectively, clearly close to tears and panic evident on her voice.
Marvel looked at Tawny as the Raikou growled and went into the alley, passing and startling the robbers as he stood in defense of the lady, growls coming out like crackles of thunder, loud against the silence of the alley.
“Shit!” the first thug yelped in surprise, “Is that the hero Raikou?!” the second one asked, taking a step back in fear of the large feline in front of him. “I thought it was a myth!”
Captain Marvel slowly floated down to land alongside Tawny, standing tall and opposing the two criminals, who were looking ready to bolt, shaking hands reaching to the Pokéballs on their belts.
“Tawny,” The hero called, nodding at the Pokémon, “Electroweb.”
At the command, electricity charged all around the legendary Pokémon, surging forwards as two webs that wrapped around the two criminals, shocking them to make them drop their weapons, before staying dormant, only serving to keep them both still.
After checking on the restrained criminals, Marvel turned to Tawny. “Good job!” he smiled, petting the Pokémon’s head, who trilled back proudly at the praise, happy with his work well done.
After the brief congratulations and pets, Marvel turned around to check on the elderly woman.
“Thank you, thank you! This necklace is oh so dear to me, I can't bear to even think of losing it.” The senior babbled, voice full of relief and a big smile upon her face.
The Captain smiled back at her, “No need to thank me, Ma’am. I’m just glad you’re safe.” he responded, before being lightly headbutted by his partner Pokémon, trying to get his attention.
“Yes?” he asked, confused, as the pokémon walked to the thugs restrained on the ground, referencing them, their fallen weapons and Pokéballs with a paw. Realization dawned on the champion, “Oh! Them! Right, right.” he noted.
“Ma’am, I need to go deliver those men to the police. Stay safe, alright?” at her nod, he grabbed both restrained thugs, still struggling in the electric webs, and took flight, being mindful of the Pokéballs still on them. He absentmindedly noted that Tawny took both of the dropped knives before he followed him.
──────────────────────────
Today was a calm day in the Justice League watchtower. Batman was researching some cases and compiling files, with his Noivern by his side, while Flash’s Jolteon raced by, chasing Green Lantern’s Reuniclus.
The Jolteon, happily yipping after the other Pokémon, stopped once they both reached the recreation room. The large TV was on, displaying the news.
“Hello, good morning, Reporter Jessica speaking, reporting from Fawcett city.” the reporter started. Behind her was a large person who was talking to the police. The person didn’t seem thrilled at all to be talking to them. “This morning a criminal duo was apprehended by Captain Marvel, the newest Fawcett hero.” She said, stepping aside and letting the camera focus on the tall person — Presumably, Captain Marvel — talking to the officers. She moved again, the camera focus going right back at her.
“We are hoping to get an exclusive interview with him, and get more information on the crime.” Jessica says pointedly. She was not too close to where Marvel and the officers stood, but with the subtle raise of her voice, it was obvious she was heard. Especially when the Captain seemed to beam out of nowhere, saying rushed goodbyes to the officers, waiting patiently as the news crew moved in.
“Hello, Captain Marvel. Could you explain to us what happened earlier today?” The reporter politely asked, raising her microphone near the hero. He seemed somewhat relieved, or more accurately, less on edge talking to the curious reporter and cameraman than he was talking to the officers.
“Of course!” The hero said with a bright smile. The news banner silently changed from ‘EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH NEW FAWCETT HERO AND LEGENDARY PARTNER’ to a blank banner. “While on patrol today, me and Raikou,” Upon being mentioned, a Raikou showed up, who was previously out of the camera’s view. The hero seemed surprised too, “Oh, hi.” He cut himself off briefly to greet his Pokémon, who simply let out a chirp at the camera. “As I was saying, me and Raikou were on patrol when those two,” Marvel pointed behind him. The camera follows where he points, ending up on the two criminals, handcuffed and inside the back of a police car. “Decided to try and rob an old lady.”
The reporter feigned a gasp, and proceeded to ask more questions, some very unrelated to the matter at hand. —“Could you tell us if you’re Kryptonian, Marvel?” and “Were there Raikou on your planet?” couldn’t have anything to do with an older lady getting saved from two robbers, after all—The TV channel’s banner now read “NEW FAWCETT HERO SAVES OLD LADY FROM ARMED ROBBERY, NEW SUPERMAN?”.
While the Pokémon watched, mesmerized by the seemingly random appearance of a legendary Pokémon — A caught one! Can you believe it? — on live TV.
The Jolteon and the Reuniclus started chattering to each other back and forth, communicating with wobbles and barks. The excited Pokémon chatter attracted Noivern’s attention a room away, who went to check it out.
Upon arrival, and seeing what all the noise was about, Noivern quickly returned to Batman, the normally quiet and composed Pokémon suddenly chirping rather loudly to get the man’s attention.
