Of Knights and Aliens and Prompts

Jealous Maggie 2 (Sanvers)

Alex heads to the meeting room, deciding to just head there early so she can figure out what to say. She closes the door quietly behind her and sigh softly in the mainly empty room. She purses her lips and starts to pace, trying to think of how she could talk to this Siobhan.

It doesn't feel like it's too much later when there's a knock at the door, but when Alex looks at the time, over an hour has passed.

A voice filters through the door. "Sir Alex? I have a Siobhan Smythe here to see you."

There's a different voice that Alex hears as whoever it is huffs, sounding unhappy with something.

"Come in," Alex says in her best put-together voice. She's an agent of the DEO, this should be no sweat.

The door opens as the guard holds it open for this Siobhan. The woman that stands before Alex has what looks like white or gray hair with streaks of a dark brown or black. Her eyes are a light green, almost blending in with the whites of her eyes. Her overall aesthetic is definitely cool, but honestly the eyes are kind of creepy. She has makeup on, like she's trying to impress everyone she comes across. If Alex didn't already love Maggie, she would probably be intrigued by this Siobhan.

There's a smile that's really more of a smirk playing on Siobhan's lips as she steps into the room, ignoring the guard completely as her attention focuses solely on Alex. Her hips sway exaggeratedly as she walks like she's trying to draw Alex's attention to them. The guard closes the door behind her, giving a respectful nod to Alex as it shuts. Alex makes sure to give him a nod back before turning to Siobhan, who's a lot closer than she had realized. Her training means she does not flinch or automatically step away from her.

Siobhan extends her hand in the limited space between them with that cocky grin and Alex takes it after a pause. They shake hands and Alex can feel the strength behind Siobhan's grip.

"Sir Alex Danvers," Siobhan practically purrs. "It's wonderful to meet you."

"It's nice to meet you too," Alex says, trying to sound as formal as she can. She lets go of Siobhan and sits down at the table. "My mom said you had something you wanted to talk about? Something you wanted to talk about with me specifically?"

"Yes, there is." Siobhan doesn't look put off by Alex's response as she sits in the chair closest to Alex. "It's not business so much as pleasure."

Alex does her best to seem confused as she leans back in her chair. "Alright. What can I help you with?"

"Well, I don't know if you've heard of me. I'm not a princess, and I'm certainly not a knight. I know a lot about you, Sir Alex Danvers, and I've wanted to meet you for some time now." There's some honesty in her voice but Alex can tell she's also trying to butter her up. "I was hoping to get to know you better. You know, in person." She gives a little shrug that's somewhat charming as she gives Alex a warmer smile.

"You came all this way for that?" Alex asks. "I have to admit, that's kind of flattering. You seem like a busy person."

"Never too busy for a new... connection." There's an eyebrow raise and a semi-seductive look aimed at Alex at the end of that sentence that makes Alex more uncomfortable than anything, as Maggie's in the forefront of her mind.

Alex shifts, letting her discomfort leak into her movements. She can tell that Siobhan's the kind of woman who's good at reading people, but Alex has been trained for years in the art of deception. She's good too. Just... not with Maggie, because she's a "Disaster Lesbian." Alex lets Siobhan study her curiously, taking her in as Alex just sits.

"I want to be honest with you, Sir Alex. I have heard a lot about you, and I'm intrigued. I want to know more about you." Siobhan leans forward. "And if things go well... perhaps we can be more than friendly."

Alex lets even more of her discomfort leak into her posture. "I have a fiancee."

Siobhan's eyes squint slightly, slightly unfocused, as she processes this. She leans back and gives Alex a smile, but this one's a lot less cocky. "Your mother didn't tell me about that. Maybe that's why she was so insistent that I wouldn't be able to sweep you off your feet." She lets out a breath. "I apologize, I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable. He's very lucky."

Alex smiles softly, thinking about her soon-to-be-wife. "Nah. I'm the lucky one. She's amazing." 

Alex feels a dull pang of satisfaction when she sees Siobhan's eyebrows raise. "She, huh? Tell me about her."

Alex smiles. Maybe Siobhan and her could be friends.

It's later in the day when Alex comes and finds Maggie on the training field, practicing her movements. Maggie hangs up the practice swords and meets Alex halfway, hugging her tightly and lifting and spinning her for a moment. Alex is laughing softly into Maggie's hair as she's being set down. Alex pulls back and gives Maggie a soft smile. 

"How'd it go?" Maggie asks, her eyebrows scrunching with worry.

"It was fine. I told her about you and she was very respectful and backed off. I think I actually made a friend in her." Alex says. "She said she definitely wants to meet you sometime."

"I'd like that. Maybe tomorrow?" 

"Sure!  Then maybe you won't be as jealous." Alex gives her fiancee a wink as Maggie sputters, her cheeks darkening.

"I'm-I'm not jealous!" Maggie continues under her breath. "Anymore..."

"You're cute, babe." Alex kisses her cheek gently.

Maggie sighs, feeling the heat in her cheeks. "If you'd like, I can channel this into something more... productive. Like you."

Alex's chuckles cut off as her pale face turns pink. "Like what?"

"I can take you back to our room and remind you who your fiancee is." Maggie says with a wink.
