[notpredictable]

[Okay so - there's something strange going on here. Very strange. He'd left his room to grab a few things and...well.]

Ah - Keep is a tad...busy today, isn't it?

[Hoping against hope for Minion....]

Has anyone seen a fish in a gorilla suit? If so - notify me. Immediately.

[He's going to be searching the grounds. Please bother him.]

[She's trying hard not to grin throughout this, but she's not sure how successful she's being.]

Megamind was right. You really are a damn fine minion.

[Ryn's debating making some sort of snarky comment about pinpointing the exact type of scream, when his earlier comment fully sinks in.]

Replacement? For whom?

[Audio]

[fantastic_fish]

[Minion is happy to explain the situation as part of the D-I-D orientation package.]

Miss Ritchi. She has a busy schedule and sometimes can't make the commitment to being a damsel-in-distress, but Megamind tries to accommodate her. You know how it goes... Crashing news conferences, interrupting major ceremonial dedications... But, sometimes you just can't kidnap the right girl at the right time. That's where you come in!

[A pause.]

Oh, but don't worry about playing second fiddle! Your distress is very important to us. While you are in our care, we will make sure to expose you to the highest quality terrors.

[Yup. He is a good Minion, isn't he? The best that planetary destruction could assign!]

Hold on a second!

Megamind said... I was a good Minion?

[BRB, happily puffing up to the confines of his tank.]

[Audio]

[dontfeartheme]

[...and mental note to be asking Megamind about Miss Ritchi.

But for the moment, she's just going to ignore that bit.]

Yeah? What kind of terrors can I be expecting, then? Or will that ruin the suspense?

[All right, now she's smiling. That's... slightly adorable.]

He did indeed. He said I'd be liking you, and I think he was right.

[Audio]

[fantastic_fish]

Well, I don't know what to say. That's strangely flattering and I'm not used to the damsel doing anything but screaming...

[He is going to be challenged by this prospect, swimming in circles in his tank. How does compliment accept? Processing options...

A - Threaten with a terrible death? Megamind's territory.

B - Bake cookies and write a thank you note? Possibly.

C - Bake cyanide cookies and do not include an ingredient list? ...that was a failed plot against Metro Man during the great Bake-Off of 2009.

Huh. Well, while he's thinking about that, he's going on auto-pilot regarding the D-I-D orientation.]

Yes, well. I can't go ruining the surprise, but rest assured that it will be the most depraved horrors that no mere human can comprehend.

[Minion is distracted, but if Megamind says he is a good Minion, then he will continue to act like one!]

[Audio]

[dontfeartheme]

[Resisting urge to snort in amusement.]

Ah. My apologies, obviously I need to be brushing up on appropriate damsel-in-distress behavior. It seems I have some scream practicing to do.

[Ryn votes option B. She likes cookies. As long as they've not got cyanide in them, in any case.]

Now you've got me damn curious. But I suppose that's the point, letting me sit and dread what's in store.

[Audio]

[fantastic_fish]

You'll get the hang of it in no time. All you need to do is sit tight and wait to be kidnapped and we'll take care of the rest.

Well, I'll probably tie you to the chair over the pit of alligators, but it will be 100% his scheming that prompts it. We have kind of a team effort going on, where he does most of it and I fill in the gaps. Very few gaps, but that's my job, yesiree.

[Audio]

[dontfeartheme]

Now that, I can be doing. I've not done much but sit tight since I got here.

[Although the ordered been 'get kidnapped, then sit tight,' but she's willing to switch things up.]

I'm not sure where you'll be finding any alligators here. But I've heard there's a giant monster in the lake, so perhaps that would be a good substitution?
