"We woulda been inseparable" - Larry musing on his relationship w/ Magic, from a 1991 interview
Larry started to show more public appreciation/kindness towards Magic after his HIV diagnosis, this is one of my favorite instances of it. In response to being asked if he felt 'honored' that Magic wanted his retirement ceremony to be held on a day that the celtics were in town, so that Larry could be there. And Larry was there--despite being told that his back was too bad for him to make the trip to LA and that he shouldn't be taking any flights, he went anyway.

after basketball practice
[🐍] Do you do this for everyone?
[💜] Pft. No? Just you and Ace. Floyd can handle himself. Frankly, I’m surprised you’re even letting me do this.
[🐍] Frankly, I’m surprised too.
[💜] What was that?
[🐍] Nothing. You’re hearing things.
(short bonus below: basketball club being little shits)

In love with the idea of captain marvel being Billy's imaginary friend. Like, it'd be so easy. Early depictions had them as almost fully separate people sometimes, like one soul with two minds, rather than just two filters like we mostly see now.
But imagine a Billy down on his luck, hurt and hiding from police and criminals alike, daydreaming the hours away as children do, taking inspiration from all the superheroes rising to fame, making little stories to play out his dreams of saving the world with a generic action doll he found while dumpster diving once. Most of the paint's rubbed off.
Red's his favourite colour, his comfiest jumper is a bright ruby even after all the grime and washes. Gold, too, it's shiny and warmer than silver! A hero cape is a must, big and eye catching! And he can fly, of course, like superman, and in his daydreams, when he's sore and frustrated after a long day's grind, his superhero is smart enough and knows all the right words to get the bullies to stop without resorting to fighting.
His superhero fantasy is one he spends a lot of time on, the first one he goes for when struggling to sleep at night, and he can picture it so clearly. Captain marvel is big and bright and kind, strong enough to lift the boxes for the old lady up the road who's moving all by himself, fast enough to catch Jamie who fell out of the tree on Saturday and broke his leg and couldn't come to class for weeks. He appears at the entrance to alleys when Billy is cornered, he steps up behind to cover for him when he gets caught shoplifting, he sits at the bus stop with him when it's pouring rain and the right bus doesn't seem to be coming.
And then the wizard comes, or rather whisks him away, and like a magician from a fairytale breathes life into his imaginary friend until Billy feels thrice his size and a million times more invincible.
From then on, captain marvel is a real hero, just like Billy is a real boy, and as one they save the whole city, and then the whole world, and get cats down from trees and help Mrs Victoria move the last of her boxes and she gives them a pinch in the cheek and cookies for the road and sometimes it hurts but it's so much better than he imagined.

Vote for Residuum @rottmnt-residuum in the @tmntaucompetition cause uh, well the horrors are still going to happen I think, but being at the basketball tournament for a little while is better than the secret government facility. Probably. Idk One is running around with a pointy bat...
Also note I am not the creator of Residuum, merely just a fan! Sorry if that was unclear oof! I have no control over what happens to Donnie!
Also I threw in some other awesome authors and artists as easter eggs that I think are all in this competition, that seemed excited about the polls? (so many tmnt polls right now)
This is just a fun fandom experience!
I May Be Invisible But I Still Look Good by @dandylovesturtles (look I know he can't really touch the ball but I wanted to let him do something)
Totpocalypse Au by @pastadorable
Redline Au by @coffinpal and @0ddbugs (@tmntredline)
Portal Chaos by @sheltered-uno
Bloodbath au by @trubblegumm
2 Arms Left by @intotheelliwoods (I don't think 2al Leo would really shoot his flamethrower at someone maliciously but this is all in good fun so he gets to have a little stress relief as a treat)
So vote Residuum! Delay the horrors by just a little!

Larry and Magic - Temporary Teammates
Magic and Larry played together for a night in the mid-80s for a charity event in LA. Wasn't going to hit on this in the project I'm doing, but have a scribble, since I was feelin kinda down the past little while.
They played great together, but had to remember that they were rivals, of course.
