I love it when people hop on posts on fandom content and go WELL, THAT WOULDNT WORK, BECAUSE IN THE LORE— look. I have read countless stories of various methods in which the authors Get That Man Pregnant™️. Mayhaps suspend your disbelief in fake characters for ten minutes so that strangers online can have their fun. If you're only interested in enforcing 100% canon lore, your calling is in editing wiki pages.

Identity reveal shazamily fic idea:
They're fighting some big bad in a huge cave or throne room or in an air pocket miles underwater (the Rock?) and the league and shazamily are all there, every two stuck in separate areas (magic barriers? Cave ins? Enemies simply not letting them close?).
The roof is starting to collapse. Billy catches it, but with his powers divided, he's struggling. With a time limit before he falls, the battle intensifies.
Mary and her jl partner fells her opponent first, and looks across the room just in time to see him stagger under the crushing weight. She cannot reach him (in time?). They meet each others eyes. The wisdom of Solomon, or perhaps Mary batson, has an idea.
In a crash of thunder, she detransforms, in front of their enemies, and the entire justice league.
With power returned, captain marvel stands a bit straighter. The roof grows heavier. Cracks scatter across the high ceiling.
As Mary is carried to safety, the family understands what they must do.
In conjunction with the league member they were trapped with, they work to defeat their opponents, and one by one transform, each time revealing people too small, too young. The crash of thunder marks each victory. Rubble starts to fall and shake the earth as the league members pull their partners to safety, gathering together by the entrance, bandaging their wounds. All eyes are on Marvel, trapped under a great pillar of stone. (They have been working with him for years now, but each of his family has been revealed to be children. Is he, too?) Each time he raises the ceiling a little higher, and each time it grows heavier as the battles and the ticking clock destabilise the thousands of tons above.
At last, the final group win, and exhausted league members piggy back the last child hero over the rubble.
All are evacuated, but Marvel cannot move. Rapid power transfer and hours of stress have taken their toll, and he needs to transform back as well.
Finally, finally, green lantern and superman reach him, and with their help he is freed, collapsing to the side in relief. No one says a word.
With one final lightning strike, the last member of the team is revealed.
He's twelve years old.
And the league needs to take them all to safety.

i should not be allowed to buy things in bookstores. when they see me coming they should corral me toward the order pickup counter and then escort me to the door as soon as i'm done. if that had happened yesterday i would not have ended up with volume 1 of the ranma 1/2 manga translated into french, nor a 743-page dictionnaire de synonymes that i'm going to have to somehow stop myself from reading cover to cover, nor the probably sixth copy of all systems red that i've ever owned because i keep lending my copies to people and then wanting to have one on hand in the meantime for emotional support. i mean i can see how it would not be in the best interest of the bookstore to keep me from doing that, but all the same i would appreciate it.

18 + swaymark!!
oooo thank you!!
#18 - pleaser, wallows + swaymark
okay i know they are canonically obsessed with each other but. the song is in some ways about feeling like you’re failing in your relationship and being not quite as obsessed with them as they maybe are with you, and in this video of them talking about being a tandem, there is the slightest pause before swayman answers “do you miss him?” that makes me want to probe a wound. we’re not talking irl reasons of how that’s an absurd question (how do you miss him. you’re coworkers you’re seeing each other all the time) we’re talking that maybe this whole goalies-in-love thing got blown out of proportion and now swayman’s having to buy into the bit too hard. linus loves it & everyone’s asking about their bromance & how they love each other so much and the thing is—linus is safe. he’s got a wife and plausible deniability and jeremy? jeremy is gay. sure, he can crack jokes and people-please but the more people ask the more they're going to find out until maybe they find out something jeremy doesn't want them to know. and the longer this goes on, the more jeremy has to sit at linus' dinner table with linus and his beautiful wife and pretend like he isn't a little bit in love with him. and you know what? the longer it goes on and linus doesn't dial it down jeremy does stop being in love with him, because it just feels cruel, until he finally is done enough that he stops biting his tongue and ruins the moment.

do you have any tlt headcanons that you like?
Anon I have a ton of The Locked Tomb headcanons that I like but regretfully none that are mine. Whenever I think too hard about the like complex, interconnected, cross-book character and POV and worldbuilding and lore and mythology stuff in that series my brain just starts vibrating and no coherent thoughts come out lol
When Jod said mistakes don't happen to someone as careful as him? I think my brain exploded. Legitimately threw the book across the bed and started hollering.
In short: Many headcanons, none I can articulate, Harrow is definitely a resurrection beast, Ianthe has met god and is not fucking impressed, the fact that all the tumblr references are textually canon accurate/supported/explained sometimes makes me just burst into giggles
