“Mr. Blue would be fine. Now let’s do this before I change my mind.”
“Then let’s go.”
They get in the car, ride over, try not to make out too much, then the car pulls up in from of the Metro City Museum of Natural History. The car gets in line and as they get closer they see a long red carpet leading up the stairs and LOTS of photographers crowded around. Harrison grabs Syx’s hand just as the door opens and there is an explosion of flashbulbs and questions.
“Mr. Drake-Scott who is with you tonight?” “Where’s your husband?” “Hard for even the city’s hero to get a sitter on Saturday night?” “Trouble in paradise? Is that why you’re here with another man?” “How’s little Devin doing?” “How will Megamind Inc fair in the face of Brexit?” “Who are you wearing?”
Syx tried his hardest not to cringe into Harrison’s side. He was used to the spotlight but from a safe distance. There was a reason that he kept himself separated from the populous through the use of projectors and broadcasts. He focused on keeping his mask of confidence in place with the certainty that the only person able to see through the act was the blue man at his side.
