you know those posts where cap’s seen as a dad figure? what if one of the reasons why the other superheroes think that way is because when league members bring up there kids or need cap to cover for them when their kids need them cap is just super understanding, empathetic and gets oddly proud of them for being with there for their kids
the actual reason why he’s like that is because billy just really values those things as an orphan and is proud to work with such great people
Whenever someone mentions or even breathes the implication of Cap being mistaken as a dad or seen as a father figure, I lose my marbles, because, oh cheese and crackers, I just can't express enough how much I adore this headcanon! I'm doin' a little happy dance :D
Billy Batson is someone who has always yearned and wished to be a part of a family again since his experience was cut short due to tragedy and made sour thanks to his uncle Ebeneezer being crusty dusty, so it's easy to see him respecting those who appreciate the family they have. He had to grow up and mature far faster than any kid his age, and compared to most adults, Billy is actually more mature and responsible than they are, unfortunately. It's reasonable to see that this would be reflected in Captain Marvel; someone who's immature at times, but ultimately a good-natured person with a golden heart and good intentions, who others can depend on anytime and anywhere (much to the sacrifice of his personal life).
Billy has been in enough foster homes at a young age to know the difference between a good parent and a rotten one, so seeing members of the league prioritize their family members and kids would make him really happy. He's the type to take on any shift or mission in the place of another member if they had something important to do with their family. What you said about him being very proud and empathetic towards parents in the league made me realize that Billy would have loved to have parents like them had his own not perished. In a way, he's not just proud of them, but a little bit envious.
This also brings up another headcanon of mine, where Captain Marvel is the unofficial designated babysitter of the league when emergencies come up. Because despite not knowing who he is/his secret identity, people trust him enough to let him know theirs. Like, it all starts with the Captain in the watchtower break room drinking apple juice, and is suddenly bombarded with a group of children or sidekicks being thrown at him by the other heroes, saying that the Captain was in charge while they were away before teleporting away.
All these kids and teenagers that he suddenly has to help look after, and while Captain Marvel is calm on the outside, Billy Batson is freaking out on the inside. Some of those kids are older than he is, and there's some hilarity to it. Shenanigans ensue in the Captain Marvel: Adventures in Babysitting day, but it all turns out okay in the end. As a kid, Billy would know how to talk to them and keep them busy with fun/educational stuff. Might even teach them a thing or two about good morals, manners, archeology, or ancient magic stuff.
I imagine some of those kids would want to be babysat by him again, and Billy would welcome it (with warning ahead of time). Captain Marvel is just someone people like being around with his good dad vibes. Some of them even ask if he has kids of his own, but are met with an empty room immediately as the man zooms off whenever people ask him questions about family.
Gosh I went rambling again, but I loved this ask!

if 9&10 were "dont wander off", and 11&12 were "the doctor lies", 13s rule #1 is "dont question me"
"have we not had a good time together" shes pointing yaz to the rule that yaz very well knows is there: we can travel if you dont ask me any difficult questions. yaz knows this is the rule - "because you ask too many questions", "this team structure isnt flat" - but she also was the one to invite the doctor into her home so im pretty sure she also knows shes not gonna kicked out that easily. she has some leeway. which she has been using between revolution and flux, which is why the doctor reminds her of the rules
i dont think she'd kick her out though. she wouldnt. i think it's just that the more you break the rule, the more unpleasant she becomes to be around, and eventually youre gonna walk out on your own. she doesnt want you to, she'd rather you stay and dont ask questions. but if youre gonna try to ask questions anyway, i think thats whats gonna happen
and yaz must think so too. because she does back off. because she doesnt want that to happen either. and it does anyway

my hc is that nubbins secretly likes listening to spanish songs/music
i love this!! and im not overly familiar with spanish music so i even did research for this one lmfao
i love drawing him just chillin 😭❤ maybe its one of the VERY few things that can keep him still?? at least for a couple minutes lol
i think one of his faves would be duo dinamico, since they seem incredibly popular and also i like to think maybe the duo reminds him of himself and chop top:) (song is Perdóname by Dúo Dinámico)

[Oscar paused on the landing; head tilted as he listened to a hushed voice emanating from the attic. Everyone was fast asleep by now and he was pretty sure he’d fixed the window up there, so it definitely wasn’t the wind]
[Courtney would kill him if he spotted anything spooky without her, though he didn’t fancy waking her up at 3AM, especially not after promising to go to bed early…]
Robin: Sometimes I think maybe she doesn’t like me.
Clementine: Oh.. sweetheart, I’m positively sure she adores you!
Robin: Yeah, but-…
Clementine: But! Love can be quite contrary.
Robin: What does that mea-…
Oscar: Robin?
[Robin froze, he’d been far too distracted to notice his father heading upstairs]
Oscar: Who’re you talking to?
Robin: Uhm…
Clementine: Don’t worry, he can’t see me.
Robin: Myself?
[Robin rose to his feet and forced a smile, hoping his father would believe him]
Oscar: Did you have to do it here?
[Robin shrugged, unsure how to explain himself without mentioning Clementine]
Oscar: Did you think about how you were gonna get back downstairs?
Robin: Nu-uh…
[Oscar sighed, he couldn’t blame Robin for being curious, but the ladders to the attic were dilapidated beyond repair.. he doubted this’d be the last time Robin snuck off on an adventure, he’d have to replace them soon]
Oscar: I don’t want you coming up here on your own, okay? Those ladders are dangerous.
Robin: Okay.
Oscar: C’mon, it’s late as fudge! You’re as bad as your semi-old man…
[rain pattering]
…
Oscar: You gonna stay put? I’ll get some rope if I have to…
Robin: [giggles] I’ll stay.
Oscar: You promise?
Robin: Uh-huh!
Oscar: We don’t make promises we can’t keep, remember?
Robin: I know-.. I promise, papa.

Honestly Rayla is equally 100% ride or die for Callum too.
That's so true I almost mentioned it in that post. They're so ridiculously feral for each other it's hilarious to watch. Callum's the legitimate "we ride AND die together" whereas Rayla is the "I will ride and die FOR you" sort of deal yknow?
Could be literally any situation, no matter how dangerous, and she's already decided she will die here. Does it ensure Callum lives? Then batter-up buckeroo we're going in swords blazing! Everyone cheer and clap for her human or she'll blow this whole place up. Kinda person who says "even if you hate me I'd still lose everything if it meant you were okay". She thinks they're in a tragic love story where she's always at risk of losing him but that's okay as long as it keeps him safe and happy like y'know Viren parallels, she'd risk losing her very self for him over and over. Except Callum would wait until the end of the world itself, and even beyond, and she wouldn't even have to ask.
The difference between them, really, is that Rayla will die for Callum on any given day. Callum will kill for Rayla on any given day. Something something matching sets
