Summary: Even from the very beginning Fairy Tail has been unprofessional….

Pairings: Mavis/Yury/Warrod/Precht friendship.

Author's Note: Thank you all so very much for giving me over NINETY NINE HUNDRED reviews!

It was Fairy Tail's official first ever job and Mavis was bubbling with excitement. Their first job….ever, as an official guild. She was already plotting what they could do with the money and fantasying all the thrills and adventure this one sole job could generate.

Yuri also seemed to be buzzing with excitement as he had not been able to keep still all morning, constantly jiggling one leg, or drumming his fingers against something, or looking around eagerly like a child.

Warrod was smiling pleasantly at everyone and everything, obviously just as excited though far more subdued about it, and Precht seemed less grumpy than usual as they made their way to the town hall for their meeting.

"Greetings, Fairy Tail!" a man cried out cheerfully when he spotted them. "I am so glad you were able to make it. We have heard so much about you and your dealings in Magnolia. We are ever so hopeful you can do us a similar service."

"Of course," Mavis replied, "we are honoured that you have requested our skills. I am Mavis, this here is Yury, Warrod, and Precht."

"An honour to meet you all," the man bowed slightly, "I'm the town mayor, Mr Meacock."

There was a moment of silence at this declaration and Mavis bit down, hard, on her lips as she felt a giggle bubble up in her throat.

Meacock?!

"Now that's not very nice," Yury chided the mayor lightly, "I'm sure you're a perfectly nice person. There's no need to call yourself a dick."

Mavis snorted and then quickly, much to her horror, found herself unable to stop giggling.

The mayor's eyes bugged out slightly in surprise at that. "I beg your pardon?!" he cried out indignantly.

"Hey," Yury shrugged, unbothered, "you're the one that called yourself a dick. Not me."

The mayor (for Mavis couldn't say his name, even in her head, without wanting to wet herself laughing. She was currently wringing her hands and biting her lip painfully to prevent anymore giggles escaping) puffed up with indignation as his face turned red. "I did no such thing!" he huffed out.

"Sure you did," Yury grinned. "You said me a cock, terrible grammar by the way," he added in his best teacher's voice.

"Meacock!" the mayor yelled. "It's Meacock! I said Meacock!"

"See you did it again!" Yury cried out, "That's not a very nice thing to say about yourself at all!"

At this point Mavis lost all self-restraint and collapsed onto the ground as she rolled about, giggling hysterically, till she felt tears of joy and mirth roll down her cheeks.

"It's my name!" the mayor bellowed. "MEACOCK! It's not something to laugh about or mock or make stupid jokes. I have had enough of this! If you can't act professionally then we don't want you! I don't care what heroics you did in Magnolia it's not worth this indignation. Now get out my town!"

"See," Yury hissed through gritted teeth, which looked misleadingly like his usual grin, "now you're living up to your name. You're definitely a cock."

"GET OUT!"

And with that, Fairy Tail's official, first ever, job ended on an all-time low as they were all kicked out of the town hall. Mavis, still a boneless bag of giggling mess, had to be carried out by an exasperated Precht. "Why did we let them come out on this job with us?" he grumbled to Warrod.

"Because," Warrod explained patiently, "they literally make up half of our guild right now."

"….we're screwed"
