Captain Marvel Adopts Superboy AU
I've been seeing more Connor and Dad Captain Marvel content and I want to add. I imagine it being Connor's first birthday and Captain Marvel wanting to throw the best birthday party ever! He talked to the Gods and got a full day in the gardens on Mount Olympus, he decorated, invited the entire Young Justice League, made the perfect cake himself, and got him a powerful artifact as his gift or maybe Conner's signature leather jacket with a lightning bolt stitched on the back! It was amazing and really fun but at the end of the day I see Captain Marvel becoming emotional about how fast Connor and everyone is growing up and crying a lot little.

need a fanfic of Bruce realizing that Jason doesn’t know how to properly do simple “traditional men’s” things (tying a tie, shaving, etc) because Jason had been dead, but now Bruce finally gets to teach him all of those father&son things

It’s crazy to see how people interpret dean and sam’s brother dynamic as “wincest”
Some people have clearly never trauma bonded with their parentified older sibling. Then you take into account the degree of trauma that they have been through and continue to go through. Their codependency stems from their childhood and current traumas, their mental states due to that, the way they grew up with their father obsessing over the importance of “family is everything,” and the deep parentification of Dean, AKA Dean having to be a CHILD while raising his little brother, and taking care of his insane father. It’s not “wincest”/incestuous in anyway, it’s called trauma, parentification and general unstable family dynamics.
I think that a lot of “wincest” shippers don’t actually see what trauma can do to a person and their dynamics, specifically the people that endured that trauma with you. Dean, who was the older one that had to in HIS WORDS “be the mother, father, and brother” of his younger brother since the age of !4! is obviously going to be extremely protective/codependant of/with Sam, both because of the parentification and the words of his father carved into his very being. As for Sam, having Dean be all those things for him, means that more than anything, Dean is it for him because Dean RAISED HIM. Which is why, for so many reasons, what John said to Dean (killing Sam), was one of the most cruel things he could have done. John if not straight out, on some level knows that Dean and Sam will forever have a different dynamic because Dean raised Sam, ergo, Dean being more of a Parent to Sam than he ever was.
That’s not to say I think Dean was a “perfect parent” to Sam when he was raising him. No one can be “perfect” especially not a teenager raising his baby brother. What it means is that Dean had to sacrifice his childhood and grow up quickly for Sam to be not only Alive, but also so that Sam could -have- a childhood. All of this while Dean was still actively growing up, enduring his father, hunting, and having to come to terms with monsters. But he couldn’t allow himself to mess up, and going back to the idea of “perfect parenting” we see that no, he in fact was never “perfect” specifically when he leaves so that he can play games, and he sees that Sam’s safety is (extremely unfairly) placed on his shoulders. All of this, yet again along side with never having a stable home, having an unreliable source of income, and having to basically learn how to be an adult at 7, was the start of their dynamic.
As for Sam, we see that he got to play on soccer teams, go to school, and exist (while still having to endure all of the nightmares that is his homelife) outside of the hunting. Whereas Dean was the one who gave him this chance. This is not to say that Sam should ever feel guilt over this, or that Dean needed to do this. This is to show just how different their sibling relationship is, due to the trauma.
Dean treats Sam like a brother many times, but underneath it (or on top) you will always see that he is a parent to him more than anything.
“Wincest” is talking about their “strange/codependant relationship” in a romantic or purely sexual manner. This in itself just shows how many people don’t understand what it means to either have a kid or be a parentified older sibling. (I personally am not a parentified older sibling, but my sister who practically raised me is) and because of MY family dynamic I can speak from experience (definitely not to Dean and Sam’s extent) of having a parentified older sibling, and how that differs from regular sibling relationships.
Ok, this was a ramble, but as a whole “wincest” is extremely disturbing to me as a whole. And I don’t know what the rules are on this specific topic, so Idk how much I should say. But I definitely don’t condone inc*st to any degree, but to each their own ig.
Alright, I have SO much more to say on this topic. But I will hold back for now, just because I am sleepy.
XOXO

You don't always have to be the hero, you know? I am sorry if there were times in your life, especially when you were younger, where you had to be the one to save the day because the adults in your life were not doing their part. You did not deserve that.
You assumed a role that was not even yours to assume. Sure, you did a great job at it, and it made you into the person you are today by giving you some admirable qualities, but assuming that role also broke you.
Taking on that responsibility made you feel like nothing was outside of your realm of care. You always feel like you need to be the one to take on what other people seem to be ignoring. In some cases, yes, that works. However, most of the time, that is something that only makes us more stressed and anxious. Especially if there are many things going on that we feel like we need to be in control of.
However, this does not mean that you need to be the villain either. It is perfectly fine and normal just to be neutral. Focusing on your life and letting the rest be. I know it's difficult after having to take the lead for so long, but you deserve to make your life what you want it to be.

Good
Bye.
I will miss you, friend
But I know it’s for the best
And I let you go
With all the bittersweet goodness
I can give you.
I loved- love- you like my sister.
But it’s time for goodbye.
So go, best friend.
I’m sorry it wasn’t meant to last
But I’m glad we had some time and
I hope it’s more good than bye.

Listen: A Poem About Growing Up To Fast
Listen
I was just a kid
That day at the park
When it was dark
My head hurt
It reeled
My feelings were seeled
But now they are open
The things I saw
The things I did
The scars left on me
My mind
The things I come to find
I wasn't supposed to see that
I wasn't supposed to see that
I wasn't supposed to do that
I wasn't supposed to do that
I was just a kid

Having a traumatic childhood really freaking sucks, you spend all your time in survival mode and you don't actually learn who You are or what you're doing, you spend all your time as a kid being an adult essentially, and then when you're an adult you realize how sad it was that you never got to be a kid. It sucks!

Im no peter pan
"what if i fall, oh but darling what if you fly" they say.
But what if i just want to stay?
What if right now, right here is where i want to be?
I know the world wont stop spinning for me.
I don't want to fall even less to fly, cant i just stay on the edge, for now?
Growing up is really scarring me somehow.
But im no peter pan,
I can't stop what already began.
I don't want it to stop,
I do wanna grow up.
I just want to pause for a while and look around,
Maybe then I'll be ready to grow up, and not feel so drowned.
But ive never been to Neverland and, i am no lost boy,
Im just a kid who grew up too fast, trying to find some joy.

My idea as to who the 6 main characters from digital circus were before they got taken to the circus. AU thingy
Part 2
Ragatha
I headcanon Ragatha as the eldest daughter of a single mom. When Ragatha was 7, her mom had quintuplets. Being a single mom in a run-down and conservative area, her mom freaked out. Ragatha had to help out with her siblings at every opportunity. Family stopped by to help now and again, but she still needed to help. Ragatha grew up very fast and started putting others' needs before her own. One day, she found the headset for real cheap and decided to buy herself something. One 'selfish' act wouldn't hurt... right?

Jason went from being a lil lanky boy to a super buff man to what practically felt like overnight for him and there’s just no way that missing such an important stage of physical development didn’t negatively impact his body image. like imagine you’re just a kid and suddenly waking up feeling too big for your own body??
in desperate need of an angsty fanfic that explores Jason’s body image issues because of the Lazarus Pit!! and bonus points if there’s a happy ending with Bruce hugging Jason and telling him “he’ll never be too big to be his son” (im delusional)

have you ever had the experience of always being your mother's emotional support? do you want me to tell you how it feels?
--------------
- "i grew up faster than other kids; i didn't need a stupid stuffed toy..! [...] please look at me! please mama,"
- people always ask me how i got so good at comforting hugs. i've had practice.
- and she turned me into a therapist, "for her," she said. well, she got her venting space. and i got cheated out of my childhood.
- she calls me "her bitch (/aff)". i'm just the only one who put in effort to listen, to understand, and i deal with that decision every day.
- "a fifteen year old shouldn't be this wise," she says. like she wasn't one of the reasons why i am.
- i remember the day i realized how the world actually worked. i was about six and three quarters, i believe. i was watching Go Diego Go, eating animal crackers that tasted odd, on a tray/plate. i remember looking at the TV, placed on our white, wooden entertainment center, when it dawned on me. everything we have, it all costs something. whatever we do, we have to pay for it. nothing is truly for free. i knew in that moment, i had to pay my parents back for raising me and my siblings. to pay them, i needed a job. to get a good job, i had to go to school, preferably college. i had to know my plan as soon as possible, to get started as soon as possible. it hit me like a gaping hole in my chest; this dread and overwhelming sense of despair. why?

It’s not really that i still feel like a 12-14yo, it’s just that i already had to be 18 as a kid
I was so advanced that actually/finally reaching the age i had to act like make me feel like i didn’t age, because i already acted like an adult as a preteen
I’m not an age regressor, I’m a Tall Child
