NO ONE'S POV:

(We see Y/N in a bar, watching tv.)

Anchor: The Seven's Queen Maeve and Homelander made another heroic save today, stopping a hijacked armored truck on the streets of Brooklyn, then staying behind for a photo op with some very lucky fans.

(Y/N): What a crock of shit.

(He finishes his drink & leaves some money on the counter.)

(Y/N): Keep the change.

Bartender: Thanks.

(He walks out of the bar & into an alleyway. After doing a quick scan around the alleyway he's in & doesn't see anyone, he says...)

(Y/N): SHAZAM!

(After changing into his superpowered self, flies into the air & away he goes

Shazam: I suppose it's a good thing that there aren't any crimes being committed while I'm on patrol, of course it's a good thing! I'm just bored and honestly cracking some skulls could cheer me up a bit.

(As he's flying, he notices some kids calling his name & waving in the hopes of getting his attention and luckily for them, it works. He lands in front of them.)

Shazam: What can I do for you kids?

Kid 1: You're really him, right?

Kid 2: Of course it's him! The Shazam!

Shazam: Just "Shazam" actually. Heh. So what can I help you two with? Need me to get a cat out of a tree? [chuckles]

Kid 1: Can we have a selfie?

Kid 2: Yeah!

Shazam: You're fans?

Kids: Yes!

Shazam: What kind of hero would I be if I said no?

(He proceeds to take numerous selfies with the kids.)

Shazam: I hope that's enough.

Kid 2: More than enough! Thanks!

Kid 1: Yeah, thanks!

Shazam: No problem.

Kid 1: Is it true that you're Homelander's brother?

Shazam: What?

Kid 2: Are you the younger or older brother?

Shazam: Sorry to burst your bubbles but no I am not Homelander's brother.

Kid 1: *sadly* Really?

Kid 2: So you have no affiliation with Homelander? Like, none at all?

Shazam: No. I'm my own man and superhero.

(With that info, the kids delete all the selfies they took with him.)

Kid 1: Thanks for nothing.

Kid 2: Homelander wannabe.
