Tony Stark + first (on-screen) words with each avenger
Hmmm.... how about we talk about an IT/Stranger Things crossover?
OKAY HERE’S THE CONCEPT: richie tozier and mike wheeler are twins
richie is older by like three minutes and is INSUFFERABLE about it
literally any time mike tries to argue at the dinner table (bc mike LOVES to argue at the dinner table) richie tries to shut him down with “im your big brother, you have to listen to me” and mike gets PISSED because it doesn’t even make any sense!!
“BY THREE MINUTES!” “best three minutes of my life” “that’s enough, boys”
you think mike is a little shit when he teases nancy about steve harrington? richie literally has a full-on steve impression that includes a bad california surfer dude accent and a cheesy smile
somehow both boys have different groups of weird friends and nancy swears to god there’s always at least thirteen fucking middle schoolers in her basement yelling about some shit
despite having a lot in common, mike and richie try very hard to keep their friend groups separate because theyve had to share LITERALLY EVERYTHING since birth and it’s nice to have something belong to themselves for a change!
that said, you KNOW they all like sneak around on the side and hang out. bill and will byers bond over drawing, swapping colored pencils and battered notebooks. ben LOVES lucas, appreciates his pragmatic nature, and they go to the movies together like every saturday night!!
bev and max hang out and smoke cigarettes behind the school dumpsters
can u IMAGINE richie and dustin in the same room? BAD BAD BAD
anyway mike tries desperately to keep will away from richie in the fear that will is gonna like richie’s humor and charm better and want him for a best friend but then he meets eddie kaspbrak and is like “richie’s already got his own will, we good”
also richie is banned from DND night bc he kept creating bards whose only goal was to hook up with mike’s NPCs and mike got sick of his brother fake seducing him
aNYWAY so in this world, the events of It happen during the summer and then immediately that school year, stranger things season 1 happens
will byers goes missing and bill denbrough is so FUCKING scared that It is back, that it’s stolen another child and he’s like leading the fucking search party because there’s NO WAY there’s gonna be another Georgie, not on his watch
he can feel that it’s different this time. there’s no magnetic pull in his stomach, no evidence to make him believe It has stolen will, but he has to find him anyway.
(they find will’s “body” in the lake and bill cries himself to sleep that night because he FAILED AGAIN and someone else died)
meanwhile
richie is SO NOT ABOUT this eleven shit. he wakes up in the middle of the night and mike isn’t in the bottom bunk of their bunkbeds and he hears whispering from downstairs and comes upon his brother and some fucking bald girl in their blanket fort????
mike begs his brother to keep his fucking trashmouth silent for ONCE
but of course richie immediately calls bill and blabs it all bc bill always knows what to do and also they already defeated the physical manifestation of evil and fear so like what could a bunch of stuffy scientists do to them?
and bill helps mike figure out a plan and mike realizes maybe his brother’s kind of cool after all
the two groups come together to fight the demogordon and it’s fucking ELECTRIC because the lucky seven are this fucking MACHINE of love and friendship and mike is like “WHAT DID U DO ALL SUMMER RICHIE?WHY ARE YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS AN ARMY???” and richie just grins at him, shit-eating, and says “not much. hung out in a sewer while you and ur nerd crew were playing dungeons and dragons. killed a murdering clown. normal stuff.”
mike repeats this back to will later, rolling his eyes, and will laughs
the next time he sees richie he smiles a small grin and says “killed a clown in a sewer? try living in the Upside Down for three weeks and then get back to me.”
send me headcanons/prompts!

TJ: So I’ve decided it’s time I told Cyrus how I feel about him, and I was kinda hoping you guys could maybe help me-
Buffy: You hear that, people?? The time has come! Commence Operation Get These Fools Together Already!
TJ: Operation what??
Buffy: Get into your positions! Have your walkie-talkies on at all costs! And remember what we talked about: failure is not an option, because if I have to watch these dorks hopelessly pine after each other for one more day, I am going to lose my mind. Got it??
Andi, Jonah, Marty and Amber, in disguises: Got it!
Buffy: Great! Now go MAKE LOVE HAPPEN!!
TJ: Wha-
TJ: I just wanted your help asking him out …
this single scene in it 1990 saved my whole ass life
Miles Singing Sunflower
all of the losers except stan are super excited for halloween
they go all out and like decorate everywhere and carve pumpkins and all that stuff
and on halloween they all have great, meticulously planned costumes (except stan)
they’ve planned for weeks to go trick or treating that night and then have a sleepover at richie’s house and watch horror movies all night
so when they all get to school the losers all see stan and are frankly a little disappointed because he looks completely normal
richie and bill in particular keep bothering stan about why he’s not wearing a costume or anything
and then at lunch stan just pulls up his pant leg and shows them the pumpkin socks he’s wearing and is like “boo, motherfuckers, now shut up and let me eat my lunch”
richie is delighted and ruffles stan’s hair ofc
and they all go trick or treating after school
richie gives eddie all of his candy and then steals candy from everyone else because he still wanted some
and then they all watch scary movies and cuddle up together on the couch
eddie falls asleep on richie’s shoulder after the first two or three movies
bev laughs at bill when he jumps at all the scares and ben watches her in admiration
stan and mike’s fingers lace together not long after the first movie starts & every time stan jumps mike squeezes his hand in reassurance
eventually they all fall asleep together & it’s all perfect and wonderful and there’s candy everywhere
I like to call this one “he doesnt even know”
the #1 reason Richie would be Flynn Ryder in a Tangled au is the narration at the beginning where he goes “this is a story about the day I died- just kidding, it’s not actually about me at all” and you can’t change my mind
appreciate my humor
So as someone who's just gotten into DC recently (I really like the whole batfamily dynamic the most) where do you think is best to start with the comics and where could I get them online you think? I'm in the UK so I cant access that DC website that has the whole comic library sadly it sucks.
I…Um. Oh. Haha. Tough question, first of all, I have no idea how you can access them online. I get them every month (and in France we unfortunately don’t have a third of what is actually published so I also get a lot of things via specific comics book stores). I buy the physical copies, I’m not a fan of digital things. But I’m sure there’s a lot of websites and you can probably find them with a quick google search ! I’m sorry I can’t help you on that front. I’m sure though some people reading that post can help for that !
As to..Starting with the Batfam…it’s kinda up to you to decide which origin story you prefer…I always have a little trouble to give advice on where to start, because there’s many different beginnings haha. But here’s me trying :
1938 to 1986 : the golden age followed by the silver age (”pre-crisis”)1986-2011 : the modern age (”post-crisis” or sometimes “pre-flashpoint”)2011-2016: the new 52 (”post-flashpoint”)2016 (june)-ongoing: Rebirth, which it is an event that revives the modern age heroes (while keeping the few good things about new52…haha makes me actually miss New 52 at times. I remember how I was like “oh this isn’t very good” and then got my hopes up with the beginning of Rebirth only for it to become WORST than New 52 haha…)
1986 : Crisis on infinite earths (my favorite)2011 : Flashpoint (I like it)2016 : Rebirth (also known as “the-one-we-do-not-talk-about”. I hate a lot of things about it, if not everything. BUT the beginning was good, it just went downhill at some point for some reasons…
Each era can be read seperatly. And it’s kinda up to you to decide what you prefer and what you want to forget and pretend it’s not part of canon (Ric who ?).

PS : Anyone, feel free to add things that you think are important to learn about the characters or the World :). This is just a quick list I wrote before work, and of things coming to my mind, so I’m probably missing important stuffs without noticing it !
PPS : important to say when I put “origin”, it implies “one of the origin”, just thé ones I chose because it’s usually the most liked (not particularly by me) and acceptéd (again, not particularly by me haha).
