Ϟ10th Plan -> audio/video

[notpredictable]

[The feed cuts on and Megamind’s voice booms through.]

CITIZENS OF THE KEEP.

Now that I have your attention, I would like you to feast your eyes on this.

[The video feed opens to a guitar that he's seriously pimped out.]

Now. You might just be wondering at the purpose of all this, but! I think you'll all agree that the music in this blasted place is, while quite nice, practically prehistoric.

Now. I realize there is no electricity however.

That is a sacrifice I am willing to make for something damn decent to listen to!

[pause.]

Anyone remember the chords from Stairway to Heaven?

[Sealed to Bryn]

Bryn. I have a...request, if you please. Meet me in my quarters in an hour.

Comments

[notpredictable]

To where, Bryn?

[He shakes his head and presses gloved fingertips to his temple.]

This is futile -- she's going to tell me no. Honestly -- have you looked at me lately? Would you date me?

[brynkitten]

[That...was not a question Bryn was expecting to be faced with. Would she date him? She'd never thought about it, honestly.

Until now.]

I would consider it, yes, but it's different because you and I are friends.

You and she must have connected in a way...must have had something really important in common you could share together. Or you could simply...arrange a special dinner together. That's fairly common where I'm from.

[notpredictable]

[There's a brief flicker on his face -- well. There's one question he'd pondered previously answered.

Bryn's name is immediately erased off his mental '?' list.]

I suppose I could attempt -- though I...don't cook. Minion did all the trivial things while I plotted Metrocity's downfall.

[brynkitten]

[Bryn gives him a wider smile.]

Let me be Minion then. I can cook. I can make you two a really nice dinner and have it all set up wherever you want. If I do this will you ask her?

[notpredictable]

[He's still uneasy.]

Ah...I don't know...

[brynkitten]

[She gives him a more firm look. She is resolved.]

Don't let the opportunity slip you by. You are a super-intelligent villain who has found someone who likes kissing you. You two must get along for you to even consider this. You're not allowed to back down.

[She has a vested interest in your happiness, Megamind. Carpe diem.]

I'll make the dinner and set the table. You ask her and come up with something for you two to do before or after or something.

[notpredictable]

[He will never get you, Bryn.]

I-I--

[How is he supposed to argue against this?]

I suppose I could...attempt.

[brynkitten]

[That's okay. So long as he continues to accept her, she's happy.]

You should. It would be worth it. I know it.

[So no more arguing. You wanted her advice, this was it.]

[notpredictable]

So long as you're quite certain...

[SO UNEASY.]

Do...you really think she would agree?

[brynkitten]

[It was her turn to reach out for Megamind. She took one of his hands in hers and gave it a squeeze.

Then, she gave him a very focused, intent look.]

How many times did she kiss you?

[That's answer enough, don't you think?]

[notpredictable]

Ah. Well. Once -- technically--

[...He'd done the rest.]

[brynkitten]

Yes but she wasn't pulling away all the other times was she?

[NOPE.]

[notpredictable]

That...would be a no.

[Blush.]

[brynkitten]

In my opinion, I would say that the chances of her saying "yes" are very high.

[notpredictable]

Well --

[HE straightens and forces himself to stop that damnable blushing. Time to get his bravado back -- seriously, what is his deal?]

Of course she will! How can she resist me? I'm devastatingly handsome, you know.

[brynkitten]

[It's pretty adorable on him, and Bryn responds with a wide smile. There's no hint of irony in her voice.]

She'd be a fool to resist.

[But Bryn had a good feeling about this. She doubted this woman would do that.]

[notpredictable]

[He huffs, and flicks his cape.]

Of course she would! How could she ever oppose my irresistible charm?

[brynkitten]

You see? So you have nothing to worry about. Ask her, find out what she might like to do, and go from there!

[notpredictable]

I will. I will!

[He can so do this. He's Megamind - he can do anything.

...Right!]
