222 [Before the Start of the Flood]

[He's a little beaten up, as you might be able to tell on the video.]

Disappointing news I'm afraid, my dears. Auditions will be a matter addressed after the port at the end of the month. I don't know about the rest of you, but I'll certainly feel more comfortable running lines with people after this place has gone back to normal.

I'm sure you're heartbroken, the lot of you.

The changes to the facilities don't especially agree with me, or Renate for that matter. [a bark in the background.] It leaves me feeling especially optimistic about what's to come.

Oh dear! Yes, I'm -- sorry, the CES is not very good for dog--- anything, right now. Are you alright?

[ Seriously, Marquis, did you not heed the many warnings? Megamind briefly touches his temple as the part of him that's Jude damn near craps kittens, and adds, ]

I'm mobile. Do you need a hand? I can come up for a bit if you'd like.

Just a little bruised. [None of the wild animals got him. Renate is a very good protector.] We didn't stay long. When the Admiral recommended that people make use of the changes I believed I would better benefit from seeing them firsthand than hearing about them.

The bad news is that I never seem to fare well in such environments.

Can you come down and get scanned? I'd prefer you armored in the next port! Better safe than sorry, right?

I'll come down. [And he's not going to remark on the rest. On one hand it's nice to be fussed over, after a..]

Right, I'll see you in a few minutes.

[ And he wave a hand; he's just leaving the engine room for lunch right about now, anyway, so it's no problem to take lunch in the lair instead. ]

[ No music today; he's not had time to put it on upon arriving back, so the lair is quiet except for the hum of machinery. ]

[He comes down with Renate. Part of him wonders if he should have asked but she probably needs a glance or two herself and is rather adamant about not leaving him alone. He knocks gently.]

[ Megamind handles the door himself, and clamps down on the instinct to greet the Marquis more warmly than is due-- they are not lovers, shut up Jude. ]

Come in. Hello, Renate. Come to play with Angus and Digby?

[ He's got the coffee maker running, and so the lair smells of a fresh pot. ]

Yeah. It doesn't really get me excited either, and I usually like a rough ride.

[No, Kay, don't say these things to the Marquis... Even if they're true in all contexts.]

[Already leering]

I'll bet you do.

[It takes him a second for his own words to catch up to him. Wait for it. Waaait for it.

You know what, he's just going to smile. Hi there, Marquis.]

[grin]

Well I certainly hope the enclosure has been kinder to you than to me.

To be honest, it's depressing as hell. And usually a good fight doesn't put me in that down a mood. No, that place is depressing as hell.

We could certainly use a little more mirth.

Funny thing is, I think you're right. As pissy as I get about people goofin' off around me to irritate me, it makes goin' into a situation a lot easier.
