creampuffwarden:

                        She sighed for the tenth time that day alone – hands clasped behind her back as she made her round around the prison grounds. It was standard during certain times in the day, however, the noise level was slightly above average today, echoing off the walls and requiring a few guards to lower it down.

                That was not the cause of her sighing, however. Months had gone without word of her child and she was torn between diving into her car and driving out to see them or simply staying put and waiting for them to come to her.

                “Warden! You might wanna come see this!” Officer Velazquez was suddenly in front of her – catching her while she mused a little bit.

               Her feet were carrying her forward before he finished the last syllable, feet clicking along the linoleum floor with rapid taps of succession. Whatever had the officer in such a frenzy deserved her attention.

               Until she saw where she was being led to – heart hammering within her ribcage as she took sight of the special dome-like cell structure. The one meant to house them.

              Her steps slowed first, a much gentler tap until she stood in front of the circular window that usually housed them – her hand raising to rest along the cool glass. Cheeks rosy, her blue eyes peered inside the structure to get of glimpse of them, widening when she caught sight of whom was inside.

              …Blue…? Had they returned?

               “Ma’am?”

               The voice broke her away, made her remember where she was and the duty she had to do. Her only sense of comfort was that Blue was not one to intentionally hurt anyone – but they could still be hurt. And she feared the day they would come to her in a gurney bag.

               She cleared her throat, stood straight once more and gave a nod toward the officer. He could stand guard all he wanted. Then she turned her attention back to Megamind.

              “…Back again I see,” she said in her most warden-like voice, eyes steel despite the turmoil within. “What landed you in here this time?”

Megamind curled up in his chair, resting his head on his knees. He sighed wondering if Warden would come and see him today. All they ever seemed to do was argue. He longed for the days when his daddy would hold him and make everything right… but they couldn’t have that anymore… it wasn’t part of the life he chose and Warden would never understand.

He heard the viewport open, perking up at the sound though he tried not to let it show. Taking a deep breath he put on a dismissive face and tried to pretend like nothing whatsoever was wrong. Everything according to plan.

That only lasted until Warden spoke. The words were right, but the voice wasn’t. He blinked. The fuck? He tipped his head and blinking looked bewildered at the woman before him. She could have been Warden’s sister but she certainly wasn’t Daddy. 

He opened his mouth and nothing came out, finally shaking his head he managed, “Where’s Warden?”
