Billy Batson Taught by Doctor Strange
[Gen]
So, you know how Mamaragan basically disappeared after giving Billy his powers, and didn't really teach the guy anything? So, I was wondering... what if someone did?
Someone, like, say... a tired sorceror dad (looking at you, Peter Parker & America Chavez), perhaps?
To summ things up, this idea was basically for a fic in which Billy Batson met Stephen Strange, and the latter taught the former how to use his newfound superpowers, and maybe even magic?
This could be done in different ways imo:
1) An AU where Billy falls into Stephen Strange's world via a portal or something shortly after gaining his powers, and they bond while Stephen is trying to find a way to send Billy back and fix the rift, resulting in Stephen taking Billy undee his wing.
2) An AU where the events of Shazam! were set in New York (not just the opening scene with Thaddeus & his crappy dad and brother) and beginning-of-first-movie canon (AKA still a surgeon) Stephen found and took in/formally adopted beginning-of-first-movie or maybe even pre-canon Billy. The events of both their movies would unfold as usual, except maybe Stephen bringing Billy to Kamar-Taj with him or something, and things would come to a head when Mamaragan gave Billy his powers, which he would then turn to Stephen to help him with (having no idea what the hell to do here.)
3. Etc.
Whichever way you decide, whether or not you use these two ideas above, is fine with me though.
