Kon El: That cannot be. Why would I be the last? What do men know? Because they have seen no Kryptonians for a while does not mean that we have all vanished! We do not vanish! There has never been a time without Kryptonians. We live forever. We are as old as the sky, old as the moon. We can be hunted, trapped; we can even be killed if we leave our homes, but we do not vanish! ...Am I truly the last?
‧₊˚✧ 𓃗 ✧˚₊‧
Kon El: I can never regret. I can feel sorrow, but it's not the same thing.
Billy Batson: Where will you go now?
Kon El: I am looking for others like me. Have you seen them, magician.
Billy Batson: No, I've never seen anyone like you. Not while I was awake, anyway.
Kon El: A person told me of a Red Bull, who pushed all the other Kryptonians to the ends of the earth. And Klarion spoke of a King Jack Drake. So I'm going where they are, to learn whatever they know.
Billy Batson: Take me with you, for lucks, for laughs, for the unknown.
Kon El: You may come with me if you like, though I wish you'd asked for some other reward for having freed me.
Billy Batson: Well, I thought about it, but you could never have granted my true wish.
Kon El: No. I cannot turn you into something you are not. I cannot turn you into a true magician.
Billy Batson: That's all right, don't worry about it.

Bart Allen (to Billy Batson): What have you done?
(Holds up the head of a human boy. A mark that looks like a star is on his forehead.)
Bart Allen: What have you done? What have you done!?
Billy Batson: The Red Bull came for a Kryptonian, so he had to become something else. The magic chose the shape, not I. I am a bearer! I am a dwelling! I am a messenger!
Bart Allen: You are an idiot! Do you hear me? You lost him! You trapped him in a human body! He'll go mad!
(Conner begins to stir. He wakes up, and tries to stand.)
Billy Batson: I can change him back. Don't worry about it. I-I can change him back.
Conner: What have you done to me?
Billy Batson: (to the Conner) You see, I couldn't think of anything else I could do to save you.
Conner: What have you done to me? I'm a Kryptonian! I'm a Kryptonian!
Conner: I wish you had let the Red Bull take me. I wish you had left me to the harpy! I can feel this body dying all around me!

King Jack Drake: Who is he!?
Billy Batson: Oh, your majesty, the Sir Conner is my brother-
King Jack Drake: I want to know who he is!
Prince Tim: Father, what difference does it make? He's here!
King Jack Drake (looks at Tim): For once, you are right. He is here. They are all here. And whether they mean my doom or not, I will look at them for while. You may come and go as you please. My secrets guard themselves. Will yours do the same? (Walks off)
Prince Tim (to Conner): Say, I know where there's some cloth, fine satin. We could make a tunic.
‧₊˚✧ 𓃗 ✧˚₊‧
Conner: Bart? ...Who am I? Why am I here? What is it that I am seeking in this strange place, day after day? I-I knew a moment ago, but I-I have forgotten.
Bart Allen: The Kryptonians. If you are not the last...
Conner: Once, I can't remember, I was long ago, Someone strange, I was innocent and wise, And full of pain. Now that I'm a man, Everything is strange.
Conner: I must go to him. I must face the Bull again and discover what he has done with them, before I forget myself forever. But I don't know where to find him. And I'm lonely.
‧₊˚✧ 𓃗 ✧˚₊‧
(Conner, in his nightgown, comes down the other side of the steps, a mad and frightened look in his eyes.)
Prince Tim: Good evening, Sir Conner.
Conner: Who are you?
Prince Tim: I'm Tim. Don't you know me? I'm Tim.
Conner: Tim. Prince Tim.
Prince Tim: You were dreaming, Sir.
Conner: Well, I'm always dreaming, even when I'm awake. It is never finished. I-I will not trouble you, my lord prince. (He begins to walk away hurriedly.)
Prince Tim: Trouble me! Please, trouble me! I would court you with more grace if I knew how. I wish you wanted something.
Conner: Drown out my dreams. Keep me from remembering - whatever wants me to remember it.
‧₊˚✧ 𓃗 ✧˚₊‧
Billy Batson: There's no choice. We have to go on.
Conner: (to Tim) Don't let him change me. The Red Bull has no care for human beings. Tim, we may walk out past him and get away.
Billy Batson: If we do that, all the Kryptonians in the world will remain prisoner forever except one, and he will grow old and die.
Conner: (to Tim) Everything dies. I want to die when you die. I'm no Kryptonian, no alien creature! I'm human, and I love you. Don't let him! Tim, I can not be with you when I am a Kryptonian.
‧₊˚✧ 𓃗 ✧˚₊‧
Kon El (voice only) I remember you. I remember.
(Tim sees him fly away from them.)
(Scene: A forest. Billy and Bart are with Tim.)
Prince Tim: I will miss you. I never had any friends before. (Hugs each one.)
Billy Batson: We will come back.
Prince Tim: I wish I could see him just once more, to - to tell him all that's in my heart. He will never know what I really meant to say.
Billy Batson: He will remember your heart when men are fairy tales in books written by rabbits. Of all Kryptonians, he is the only one who knows what regret is - and love.
(Tim gets on his horse and rides away.)
‧₊˚✧ 𓃗 ✧˚₊‧
Kon El: You are a true wizard now, as you always wished. Does it make you happy?
Billy Batson: Well, men don't always know when they're happy, but I-I think so. And you?
Kon El: I am a little afraid to go home. I have been mortal, and some part of me is mortal yet. I am no longer like the others; for no Kryptonian was ever born who could regret. But now I do. I regret.
Billy Batson: I am sorry, I have done you evil and I cannot undo it.
Kon El: No. Kryptonians are in the world again. No sorrow will live in me as long as that joy - save one, and I thank you for that part too. Farewell, good magician. I will try to go home.

Captain Marvel Adopts Superboy AU
TW: Angst and a little violence
Imagine an angst fanfiction where the Justice League is put into an impossible situation where Superboy has to die in order to save the whole universe. Everyone is arguing about the ethics and what they should do. Dad Captain Marvel™ is absolutely against sacrificing Superboy or anyone but Superman thinks it's a necessary evil to save everything in the universe!
Superman talking to the league: All of creation is about to be wiped from the world! Do you know how many lives wouldn't have happened, how many people wouldn't have lived!
Superman: Connor isn't more important than the whole universe!
Captain Marvel furious turning Superman around and sucker punching him in the face:
HE IS TO ME!!!
Imagine the Young Justice League finds out about Captain Marvel being able to eat anything and they decide to test it out with a bunch of different things. At first it starts off pretty tame with screws and bolts but then it slowly escalates to more extreme things like lava and bleach. Eventually after he ate a number of dangerous things with no effect on him they started to veer more towards extreme flavors and sensations.
First they buy the most spicy pepper The Carolina Reaper and of course Captain Marvel, happy to hang out with his friends, eats it without hesitation. His face slightly flushes, his eyes water a little, and he has a small cough, but generally he's fine. One day one of the YJL members is scrolling through tiktok and sees a drink called Battery Acid, which is a energy drink mixed with a LOT of sour candy, they immediately grab everyone to buy everything they need and make the drink. The moment Captain Marvel steps through the zeta-tube they shove the drink in his face and tell him to drink it and Billy with zero survival instinct does. The moment the drink touches his tongue his brain shuts down and an error message appears (⊙ _ ⊙). He comes back to himself and downs the entire thing in one go. (He might be addicted now)
I love the idea of Billy and Cap being autistic! I think they would have trouble with eye contact, take things too literally, have almost zero social skills (exaggerated by being homeless and not in school), as well as vocal and movement stimming. Like Rosa or Victor asking Billy to "wash the pan in the sink" which is exactly what he does. He washes the pans but they actually wanted him to do all the dishes, Billy is just so confused!
Or Captain Marvel going to a Justice League meeting and needing to talk with Batman who is also autistic but he has hyper eye contact making it very awkward. A stressed Captain Marvel thinks he's in serious trouble and Batman is over analyzing which makes him think Cap is hiding something. (he is but Batman doesn't need to know that)
This is a rant about "The Boys" comics parody version of Billy Batson/Shazam!
TW: Ranting, swearing, "The Boys" comics, and mention of S/A
You guys know about "The Boys" comics and how they did a side story of a fake Billy Batson where they made him a r*pist. WHAT THE FUCK!!!! You're telling me they made a kid into one of the most disgusting kinds of people in the world when he could have an incredibly unique perspective of the universe in "The Boys"!
I know the comics are meant to show the evil side of superheroes but that can be done in infinitely better ways! Like showing how Vought would react to a potentially powerful child supe, showing how the people closest to supes change in response to the powers, showing how complex figuring out new powers are (especially as a child), showing how power can turn the most innocent people in society evil, showing how others might seek to control or manipulate the child, showing how the child may unintentionally cause harm to themselves or others due to a lack of understanding of the consequences, showing him idealizing superheroes and finding out the truth in his adult form, showing ect…
Literally anything else would have been better but the writers decided they wanted a cheap shocking side story! If they do add Billy into the tv show then they better change the story or not add him at all because I will not stand for this bullshit!
Evil Billy AU
Imagine if Captain Marvel couldn't turn evil but Billy could, kind of like a Jekyll and Hyde situation. I don't think Captain Marvel could ever actually physically kill anyone, even if he wanted to. The power of Shazam is given to people pure of heart and then changes them to be their ideal selves. Black Adam became a warrior fighting for freedom, the wizard Shazam became an immortal protector of magic, and Billy became an powerful heroic version of his father.
Black Adam became a killer after losing his son but the reason why he's so easily made that change was because he was a warrior in the first place! Captain Marvel on the other hand is formed from the idea of a parental figure and a protector. So even if he did hit someone with all his powers I think subconsciously something would stop him from going too far. However the same does not apply to Billy himself, so while everyone's worried about Captain Marvel turning evil but they should really be worried about Billy.
