Princess of the boardroom
It seemed that lately, all Diana did was go meetings. Steve Trevor claimed that they were "essential". Diana failed to see point in them. How was she learning anything about Man's World by listening to a bunch of old men argue about budget problems? That wasn't what Diana had in mind when she became her peoples' ambassador. And she barely saw the President anymore.
She started outside the window. There were people clamoring to get a look at the princess from a magical island that no one had ever seen nor heard of. And normally, she was happy to stand for photos with young girls who said they wanted to be like her when they grew up, before Steve would usher her into the car and off to their next meeting. She liked those people.
She did not like the protesters. The group of people that seemed to follow her everywhere, and stood out in front of buildings with signs and yelled nasty things at her. They said that she was a terrible influence, that she dressed trashy, and that she would instill violence in young girls. There were some that said that Diana would turn them into lesbians, which was ridiculous. Diana had never been interested in women, as the ones she'd grown up with were her sisters in arms.
They'd even made a name for her, both the people that loved her and the ones that hated her. They were calling her "Wonder Woman". Diana didn't know why they'd chosen to make a name for her, but she liked it.
Even though she didn't see what was so wonderful about sitting in meetings all day.
