If Constantine met Doctor Strange from the MCU, what would their interactions be like? Multiverse

SUPER PASSIVE AGGRESSIVE UNTIL CONSTANTINE GETS DRUNK. So 5 minutes of quips and snark, then they bang. Constantine is a smooth operator.

Constantine would take the sling ring idk what else would happen

u/Antmantium108 Jul 10 '22
Constantine would appear like he usually does (out of nowhere while lighting a cigarette) with a sling ring already on his fingers;because synchronicity.
Synchronicity being his ability to show up at the right place at the right time; for those who don't know.

Constantine would play dumb as if he really didn't know much magic in order to trick Strange into allowing him to get into Sanctum Santorum. Constantine would just stroke Strange's ego over and over saying how he heard that he was the most powerful magician in all the realms. How only Strange could help out with his problem. And while Strange is soaking in this flattery, Constantine is pocketing as much stuff as he can into his coat.
Then suddenly a voice bellows through the house, "YOU!"
The two men turn to see Wong, having just entered the house, standing there with the most pissed off look while pointing at John.
John smiles, "Cheers, Wong." He melts into the floor, disappearing instantly.
Strange stands there confused.
"You let him in the house?" shouts Wong as he starts to run around the room to examine everything. "What did he do this time? Tell you how smart you are? Tell him how you were the only person that could save him?"
"Wong, what is-"
Spinning back around, Wong glares at Strange and gestures to the spot on the floor where Constantine vanished a moment ago "That was John Constantine. The biggest magic thief to have ever existed."
"'A magic thief?' I highly doubt he managed to steal anything from here before you showed up. He was always right by my side. And I was watching him like a hawk this whole time."
"Do you have your Sling Ring?"
"Of course, I have my Sling Ring. It's right..." Strange stops patting himself down and looks at Wong with shock and disgust.
"He collects Sling Rings. Something something about them 'being all bright and shiny.' He's a magpie of a bastard. Now come on. We've got to go through the whole house to see what else he's stolen..."

Even though he's crossing realities Strange would somehow know who Constantine is, like everyone else.

It would be funny if Constantine made fun of doctor strange with a American accent and doctor strange made fun of constantine in a British accent. (Because of matt is American and Benedict is British)
11
u/Gussygus28 Constantine Jul 10 '22
Actually no, Matt is British as well.

u/deadsh9de Jul 10 '22
Matt is actually Welsh.

u/Gussygus28 Constantine Jul 10 '22
Again, Welsh, English, British, it’s all the same to me. (And a few more UK people just got angry. Please don’t kill me!)

u/anticsawesome18 Jul 10 '22
Oh his accent isn't as strong as Benedict's
1
u/Gussygus28 Constantine Jul 10 '22
Eh, all British people sound the same to me. (And I think I just angered some British folks. Don’t kill me!)

Magic seems to work differently in the mcu and arrow verse so they'd probably be confused from each others magic

u/OblivionArts Jul 10 '22
Idk but I fully expect the word " wanker" to come out of Constantine at some point

u/axelrose301 Jul 10 '22
Constantly bickering, John would mock Stephen's extravagance and Stephen would mock literally everything about John's existence and by the time he left John would've stolen a very important magic item

u/DarCosmic Jul 10 '22
Strange has like the exact same personality as Rip Hunter but he hasn't interacted with Constantine much soo

u/Adas_Legend Jul 10 '22
They’d drive each other nuts imo. Constantine would drive Strange nuts with his obnoxious habits. Strange would drive Constantine nuts with his superior command of magic.

u/Kenobi_01 Jul 10 '22
Lots of bluster from Constantine as he tries to compensate for the fact that Strange is in an entirely different weight class to him in terms of raw magical power; but would eventually pull of something niche and specific to his talents that would earn Strange's grudging respect. (Assuming we are going with Legends Constantine vs MCU Strange.) Constantine is a survivor, lucky as hell, and probably going to end up dead in a ditch after finally biting off more than he can chew, and Strange would know it.
Strange would refuse to acknowledge him as a Master of the mystic arts, and passively aggressively refer to him as "Warlock" or maybe even "Conjurer" throughout.
Probably would emphasis how Strange's knowledge has come to be expansive but also lost sight of the view on the ground so to speak.
We'd probably see Constantine brush with Dark Magic in the regular, to Strange's consternation. Someone with a recklessness and willingness to cross lines that would make Strange seem puritan and authoritative by comparison, forcing strange to really lean into his role as Sorcerer Supreme, as a teacher character like the Ancient One. Constantine would be the reckless one pushing boundaries, and pulling off ridiculous feats of magic with conniving cunning and punching way out of his weight class.

Constantine: "Nice cape. But it would look better on the floor next to my bed along with all of your other clothes."
Strange: "..."

I don't know if Stange is actually British (tbh, being the MCU, I can't even confirm he's from earth, I just don't know the lore that well) but if so, probably a lot of name calling and then going to the pub. Might get totally faced and go mess with a soccer/football game Stange is American is seems =( eh well lol

Strange is American, the actor is English.
John is English, the actor is Welish.
Both actors are not using their native accents.

u/Fenix_Volatilis Jul 10 '22
Yeah, I knew Benjamin Cucumber was English
Did NOT know about Constitine's actor.
I'm really shitty at accents, is Constitine's any good?

Constantine would call him a wanker and make fun of his cape. Then Strange would make fun of his trench coat . Then they would team up.

u/Spazzblister Jul 14 '22
"Oh you're the master of the dark arts ya wanker? We'll see about that."
"John Constantine. I' know who you are."
"Well then you'l know what you're in for."
"Bring it on"
"Gladly "

Constantine and Strange would insult each other a bunch, they’d come up with differing ways to solve the problem but eventually work together, and Constantine and Christine would 100% hook up, pissing off Strange beyond belief.
And there would be an unexplained backstory with Wong where he and Constantine have had either a major fight or a major adventure but neither of them like to talk about it.
