Random Set-Ups for Adoption #2
Tinder Heart
Amadeus, Sam, and Miles briefly exchanged looks before pointing at each other.
"It was him!" The three accused at the same time.
Kamala palmed her head. "Boys…Just, run me from the beginning."
"Yeah, Amadeus." Sam quickly took the opportunity to shift the blame. "Why don't you tell her how it started?"
Amadeus scowled. "Coward." He muttered.
"Well?" Kamala interjected before they started bickering again.
"I don't think it's a bad thing."
"You do realize he's going to leave at some point."
"So is a foreign student but you still see them on the market."
"By leave, I meant go back to his time."
"I got that." Amadeus huffed, lightly offended that she felt the need to clarify. "But my point still stands."
Kamala groaned. "Miles, help me out here." She pleaded him. "I'm not the only one that sees this is a bad idea, right?"
Miles was silent for a moment as he composed his thoughts before finally replying, "I do think he needs to see someone. I mean—have you really, really seen him?"
"The guy writes unsent letters to a girl that's rejected him, dated his best friend, sent him mixed signals, and then rejected him again. And again." Sam pointed out.
"Really? That's sweet."
"It's pathetic." Sam scoffed.
"It's wasting paper." Amadeus added.
"I feel bad for the guy." Miles chimed in.
"But can't you see? It's proof they're meant to be together!"
"And maybe they will be." Miles placated. "But that doesn't mean he can't see someone else before they do get together."
Kamala thought about it. "But… he wouldn't know the first thing to do dating a girl from this time. You remember his idea for a Halloween costume?"
"I think that's just how he is. A dork." Amadeus pointed out. "On the bright side, someone's bound to take pity on him."
"He's not that bad." Kamala defended before finally sighing. "Alright. But if this hurts him…"
"He'll get over it." Sam shrugged nonchalantly. "I don't get why you keep on babying him."
"Because she's a hardcore shipper." Amadeus commented.
"No." Kamala quickly denied, but the embarrassed flush on her face said otherwise. "It's because people might attack him for, you know, being Scott Summers?"
"Then we'll make sure he's safe." Miles assured.
Sam folded his arms. "I'm not babysitting him."
"Not it, either." Amadeus followed.
Kamala looked at Miles, who returned with a sheepish smile at his rhetoric shot down so quickly. "I'll help when I can?"
"You guys…" Kamala slowly shook her head. "…so, how are you setting up his profile?"
"Viv has a lot of pictures." Sam quickly pointed out. At Kamala's questioning look, he clarified, "Rather, she takes a lot of pictures of all of us."
"And his phone?"
Miles held it up. "Right here."
"I already know his password." Amadeus added with a smug grin.
"Alright." Kamala sighed. "I'll- I'll explain it to him. Just—at the first sign of things going bad…!"
"We'll be there. And we'll stop."
"Alright." Kamala repeated, more for herself. She looked outside where Scott was conversing with Viv, who had taken the role of distraction while they had their meeting.
She sighed and stretched out her hand.
"Give me the phone."
A/N: If it wasn't too obvious, the Champions decided Scott needs more experience with girls, so they signed him up for whichever dating app/site. Basically, an excuse for Tyke to be paired with someone.
I had a similar idea for Cyke, where instead of the Champions, it'd be the students making the account to keep him busy so they could avoid training.
Anyways. I was going to type up one more set-up, but it would consume more time, of which I don't have much to spare at the moment, and required me pulling up my AvX-era comics, of which I'm too lazy to do. Basically, it has Phoenix!Clops, after he acquired the entire PF, suddenly have a moment of clarity that he's losing control so, just as he's about to kill Chuckie, he uses the PF to open a rift and transport himself somewhere else before he lost it. This was originally a premise for a DC Crossover, where the DC Heroes are eventually able to subdue him. After which, a budding relationship with Diana occurs because [plot progression].
Anyways, that's it from me for now.
