Ambassador to Douchebags
AN: First off I want to thank FlopsyTheStingyDingo (love your username BTWs) and beulah2013 for your wonderful reviews and suggestions. You guys keep me writing. Flopsy, I totally agree Darcy and Cyclops would not get along, but this popped into my head when I read you review. I hope you get a laugh out of it.
When you have super-geniuses and superheroes of two different groups with different methods and opinions, egos are going to clash. As it inevitably did when the X-Men and Avengers met during a battle. They did not play well together, at all. Steve, Natasha, Storm, and surprisingly Wolverine tried to keep the peace, but Tony and Cyclops clashed. For once Tony was not to blame, and he was not letting them forget it. No, Cyclops was to blame. Apparently, he was condescending and didn't think the Avengers should be taken serious. He outright told them they were in the way, and he wasn't going to let them jeopardize their mission. Darcy was both shocked and pleased when Coulson recommended she be ambassador to the X-Men to resolve the issue.
Darcy was understandably furious about the slight against her Avengers, and had charged her Taser the night before her first official meeting with the X-Men. She was anxious to use it on a certain optically challenged mutant, and was at the mansion early the next morning. The first time she was ever early for anything. Storm, whom she would later decide was most awesome of all, met her at the front doors to escort her to Professor Xavier's office. They chatted amicably about nothing important along the way, but paused before going into the office when they caught the end of the discussion going on within.
"We don't need an ambassador or liaison for the Avengers. There is no way we will ever be working with them again, and shouldn't have crossed paths with them in the first place. It's simple, they stay where they belong and we'll get along fine." That had to be Cyclops, the douchiest superhero on the planet. Darcy suddenly understood why some of the X-Students had jumped ship and joined the Brotherhood.
"There will be instances, Scott; where you will need to work with the Avengers, and you will show Miss Lewis respect when she arrives, as well as the Avengers should you meet again."
"Speaking of this Miss Lewis' arrival, she's late. What a first impression." There was smug condescension in his voice. Storm took this as their cure to enter, and Darcy went gooey at the anger she saw on Storm's face on her behalf. Yeah, Storm was awesome, shame her team leader was a jackass.
"Actually, Scott, she was early. We merely didn't want to interrupt your very important discussion." Darcy wished she knew how to make sarcasm sound scolding, and garner the same reaction. Scott looked embarrassed and chastised, which unfortunately made him react like a child. He looked down his nose at Darcy and spoke words that made her whole world come crashing down around her.
"You're the best they could do?" Cyclops, Scott "Douchcanoe" Summers, was her freaking soulmate? Oh hell no.
"I demand a do over!"
That folks is the story of how Darcy made Cyclops pass out on their first meeting, without ever having to use her Taser.
AN2: I'm so sorry. I couldn't help it. Please review. I've got Falcon, Ben Grimm, Spider-Man, JARVIS, and Johnny Storm in the works for this. Then I will be ending this soulmate drabble series with a Wolverine bonus continuation drabble. Then I will be working on a multi-chapter fic. I welcome your suggestions on that.
