A/N: I tried to make this one funnier. I also realize that a lot of my one shots are only loosely based around the prompts given.
I love the reviews guys! Once I get in a longer chapter, I'll address each and every one of you individually!
Spaqua Status: Bitchy Frenemies
Diamond
Bumblebee, Mas, and Menos could only stare in shock. When they'd responded to a distress call from Speedy and Aqualad from Steel's Natural History Museum, they'd expected anything but this. Bumblebee, finally finding her voice, spoke exactly what was on everyone's mind.
"What the hell?"
Before them, in the middle of the crime scene that their latest villain had just escaped was Speedy and Aqualad. The two were fighting, as was quite normal. What wasn't normal was the fact that Speedy stood there with his arms crossed and his nostrils flaring like it was nobody's business, and Aqualad was more animated, flailing his arms around and shouting out insults such as "dickwad" and "Seaweed Breath." It took a few moments for the other members of the team to realize that the two had apparently switched bodies.
Just to make sure she wasn't imagining things, Bumblebee called out, "Aqualad!"
It was Speedy who looked over, "what?"
"'oly moley!" the twins exclaimed, wearing Home Alone-esque expressions on their faces.
Bumblebee would have smiled at the twins for their branching out into the English language if she hadn't been so completely flabbergasted, "what on Earth happened to you?"
Aqua-er, Speedy sent the other boy a glare, "some chick in green attacked us and Fishstick here got in the way and let her zap us with some crystal thingy."
"I hardly see how any of this is my fault," Sp-Aqualad snapped back, "you're the one that nearly shot me with an ice arrow...again." Then, after a pause, "and it was a magical diamond, not a 'crystal thingy' oh eloquent one."
"If you weren't wearing my gorgeous face, I'd totally rearrange it right now," the archer hissed.
"Knock it off!" barked Bumblebee and the two obliged, but not without shooting each other one last glare, "the twins and I will look into this mysterious robber. In the mean time, you two are gonna go to the tower and figure ya'selves out without killing each other. Got it?"
They nodded begrudgingly.
TTTTTT
As soon as the two arrived back at the tower, they situated themselves on the large couch in the main room.
"How the hell do you deal with all this hair?" grumbled Speedy, combing his fingers through the long, dark tresses on his head trying to get all the tangles out, "hey Fishstick, c'mere."
Without warning, the archer's hands shot straight for Aqualad's waistline, "whoa! What do you think you're doing?" The boy scooted back as the other advanced on him.
"Settle down, Sushi Brain, I just need the comb in my utility belt," sighed Speedy, "plus even if I did want to do whatever your sick mind thought I was about to do, it's my body."
"Yeah, but I'm in it!" squawked Aqualad backing away further, "just tell me what pocket it's in."
Speedy rolled his eyes, "third one on your left."
As Aqualad pulled the yellow comb out of the pocket, he caught the small Speedy emblem on one of the corners. He bit his lip, choking down a laugh. He was aware that Speedy kept a comb on him at all times, but this was ridiculous, "you have a Speedy themed comb? What, does one of your trick arrows release hair gel, too?"
The other boy shot him a nasty glare and snatched the comb from his grip then went about fixing his hair, "you really oughta consider using a conditioner."
Aqualad snorted, rolling his eyes. Suddenly turning serious he asked, "do you think this is permanent?"
Speedy gave a half shrug, trying to look like he wasn't concerned, but failing by only just a little.
"Oh..." was all Aqualad could say.
"So..." said Speedy.
Awkward silence.
Speedy spoke up once more, "...is this the part where we work together to get used to each other's bodies and learn valuable lessons of what it's like to be in another person's shoes? Y'know, like Freaky Friday or some shit like that?"
Aqualad shrugged, "I guess so..."
And so they did.
In the end, when they were turned back to normal, no life lessons were learned. They still got at each other's throats about every little thing and never did get tired of the insulting nicknames they used towards each other.
The only real changes after the body switching ordeal was Speedy's new habit of flaring his nostrils when angered, Aqualad's sudden fondness of using hair conditioner, and their new aversion towards anything diamond-like.
A/N: Thus we see the return of the "personal space invading" side of Speedy's personality. I kinda thought I'd lost my lost my sense of humor what with my week from hell last week, but luckily its slowly returning back to its original strength. A special thanks to reviewer Zalaya AKA kodamatreespirit for her kind words on my dA account in regards to said week from hell. Hugs n kisses, sweets!
As for the multi-chaptered fic, I'm going with a Spaqua one, I just can't think of a good plot, though I definitely want it to be serious but with some humor added in. I dunno, any ideas?
Later baybays!
