“Ah, that makes sense-” Roxanne stopped mid sentence as Harrison, her eyes sliding over to the blue man. God, he sounded so much like Megamind right then. Especially when they were in mid-banter and he’d call her temptress. But the way Harrison said it, he had to be flirting with her… flirting… 

Something clicked in the back of her head, her face going blank, “Oh my god. He was flirting with me.”

Harrison had hoped his flirting would get a reaction, though this reaction certainly wasn’t what he had in mind.  It doesn’t take a mega mind to figure out who ‘he’ was.  He laughed and shook his head.

“I’m assuming you mean your Megamind. I don’t know him personally, but that sounds about right.  I certainly don’t blame him.  You’re beautiful, smart, creative, and witty.  I’m happily married, but that’s everything I would look for in a mate,” he replied, unable to wipe the bemused grin from his face.  “If your Megamind didn’t have a crush on you, I would be shocked.”

Roxanne had gotten used to having both compliments and insults hurled at her over her looks during her time as a reporter. She’d gotten used to letting both just slide off of her for the most part. The only opinions she took seriously were those of Wayne, Minion, and Megamind. She found herself accepting Harrison’s compliments at face value and thus she wasn’t sure how to react. Half between humble, embarrassed, and still in shock.

“Mate? That’s an odd way to put it,” he’d said earlier that there was a Megamind that was married to a Roxanne. Now it was more than just a thought. A what if. Her Megamind was attracted to her. The way Harrison spoke of it made it sound like, “Megamind and Roxanne are a common couple?” her voice had a distant quality, she felt disconnected as her brain fought to process and analyze every kidnapping through this new light. Face drawn, she denied her dark fantasies, “Well it’s not like I would ever date a villain. He has to know he doesn’t have a chance.” 

All that he’d believed for so long that she’d been dating Wayne. All the better that he was having a thing with Wayne now. It was… better this way. Even if she’d lost both of them from the looks of it so far.
