I loved it, I felt the need to squeeze my brain power and capacity and try to write at least a little-

Barry was really excited for the League meeting this time! (which is a rare thing)
It turns out that this time, they would be getting a new member! A considerably new hero from Fawcette City, named Captain Marvel!
He's heard some stories about the new guy, and seriously bro, the whole of Fawcette seems to love him, that should be more than enough of an indication that the man is nice
So Barry tried to get there a bit more early and not be late this time, just a little bit.
The speedster happily sat down in his chair next to Hal and greeted him, then trying to be patient as he waited for the trinity and the rookie to arrive for the meeting to begin.
It took a little while, but soon Batman, Superman, and Wonder Woman arrived with who Barry assumed was Captain Marvel, if he had to guess with that red suit and the fact that Fawcette's new hero was affectionately nicknamed as Big Red Cheese.
Batman: I would like to introduce everyone to Captain Marvel, the new hero who emerged from Fawcette and the newest member of the Justice League.
The said hero waved a little shyly to everyone in the room but with a big and shining smile on a small two-seconds delay as if he was checking his cue at the moment.
Superman: We hope everyone on the team can give a great welcome to Marvel as a new coworker and friend!
The big blue scout says with his usual encouraging smile.
Wonder Woman: We also expect everyone to understand and include Marvel, given to his certain... condition.
The Amazon added, looking at everyone in the room analytically.
Green Lantern: And what condition exactly would that be?
Hal questioned what Barry and probably the others were curious to know.
Batman: Captain Marvel unfortunately suffers from deafness, so I will be providing a sign language course for everyone in the League, in addition to being able to communicate with Marvel, it is also a step towards expanding the members' communication skills, that would be useful in case interacting with deaf civilians is necessary. *The dark knight clicked on his tablet and sent the said course to everyone.*
Batman: Attendance at the course for least twice a week is mandatory.
He added in a firm tone.
Meanwhile, Marvel was standing behind the trinity, shifting his weight from one foot to the other, still with a beaming smile on his face as the situation was explained.
Is it weird that Barry finds the deaf electrolux refrigerator grown ass man's behavior kinda cutie potatie?
—————
After the meeting ended, the speedster made a point of going to Marvel.
Flash: Hey man! *He called, momentarily forgetting about the other's deafness and half a second later remembering and then touching his shoulder to get his attention.*
Marvel: *He jumped slightly in fright and turned around to see a slightly embarrassed but also excited Flash.*
He smiled at Barry and waved at him before pulling out a little notebook from god knows where.
Hello! You are the Flash, right? It's nice to meet you!
Barry nodded and left in a second to go to his room and get a notebook himself.
Yes I am! And you are Captain Marvel, i have heard a lot of things about ya, it's to nice meet you too buddy! :)
Really? Cool, I wish it wasn't anything weird! I would like to not cause a bad first impression :D
Naahh, just nice stuff, the people from your city genuinely loves you, huh?
I think you could say that, I always try my best to help anyone who needs, so be loved by those people is kinda nice and makes my heart warm ^^
Yeap, the guy is nice, and kinda cute, It's like interacting with a big, condensed, radiant sunshine ball.
Cool! You really are quite a hero, huh? I'd would love to be your friend.
Marvel froze for a second, before his eyes widened and his smile grew brighter and brighter (if that's possible)
Yes yes!! I would love to be your friend too! You have no idea! :DD
The writing was a bit messy from Marvel's hustle and bustle, but it was still quite readable and got the message across well.
Soon the sprinter found himself wasting a few more sheets of paper and pen ink on more conversation.
Something tells he his future self might thank him for this.
When Billy came to the Rock of Eternity he was so confused and oh so excited
The idea of getting super powers and helping people? A dream come true
The wizard told him to prepare himself and called the lightining
It was loud and scary, the crackling, booming sound echoed trough the throne room, filling every little nook and cranny with its presence
And thus, Billy Batsons word came silent
And Captain Marvel awoke
Justice league had the newbie from Fawcett on their radar for a while now, he seems good at what he does and seems genuinely nice
They eventually decided that it's time to finally recruit him
They land on the roof of a tall building where Captain Marvel, as the people called him, was hovering on, drawing something in a notebook
Superman: hello, you're Captian Marvel, right?
The Captian didn't answer him, didn't even acknowledge him, just kept drawing. Rude
Bruce: Captian Marvel
Still nothing
Wonder Woman: I kindly ask you to at least look at us when we're talking to you
When she placed her hand on his shoulder he flinched and turned around frightenent
Like he didn't notice they've been there for some time now
Superman: ah finally, we'd like to talk to you about- huh?
Captian Marvel was motioning him to stop, he opened his notebook on a fresh page and started scribbling something and showed them when he was done
I'm deaf, sorry
Oh
Oh
That explains why he didn't hear them earlier
Batman started signing to him but was met with frantic shaking head
So he took out a notebook
How long have you been deaf?
Since always
The how come you don't know sign language? Don't people who are born deaf learn it early on to talk with people?
I never really had anyone to teach me or talk to
Well that was, sad
Are you interested in joining the Justice League?
As soon as Captian Marvel readed the note he started shaking his head and smiling as brightly as a sun
Well then it's decided
On the next meeting Batman assigned mandatory sign language lessons
