Guiding Harrison to the invisible car and getting him into the back seat Megamind informed Minion, “Change of plans, we’re doing a kidnapping for information, plan one five thee two B.”

“Sir?” Minion turned his his tank, “Oh. OH?!” he stared wide eyed at Harrison before an impatient sound from Megamind had him spinning back around and hitting the gas, “The B version you said? Right you are boss.”

With the door shut and the brain bots streaming the loot back to the lair, Megamind eyed Harrison again from his seat next to the other blue man, “So your friends with a version of me?” he frowned, “Considering the confusion I’ll assume not the female version.”

Harrison marvels over the invisible car – both the technology of its titular invisibility and the meticulous leather and chrome detailing inside.  He’s never been inside Megamind’s car before, hell the only time he’d seen it was when Megamind had parked it drunk across five spots in his underground garage.  It also gives him something to do while pretending not to listen to Megamind’s conversation with his Minion.  

“No.  Well, I am friends with Girly as well,” Harrison explains by way of answering the other blue man’s questions, “but I wasn’t mistaking you for her.  The Megamind I know is a supervillain and a male one at that.  Though before we get too far into the details, I should tell you that if plan one five three two B involves Metro Man, mine is out on paternity leave.  So you’ll probably get Girly or Bruce if you dangle me over a pit of alligators or something.”   

Sitting back in the seat, he lets himself get comfortable, putting both hands behind his large blue head with a wide smirk.    

“No….” Megamind narrowed his eyes at his captive who seemed far too comfortable. It reminded him of Miss Ritchi only if she was a cocky blue flirt… so nothing like Miss Ritchi, “Interrogations don’t involve Metro Man,” he paused, “Wait, what do you mean yours has paternity leave?“

“Hands to yourself!” Megamind jerked back, green eyes flashing indignant. He was about to say more when a brain bot flew up bowging a reminder of the time. Cursing under his breath Megamind scowled and turned to Harrison, “Scott you say? This is so incredibly fascinating that you’re coming with me. Hop hop! Before the cops come because of that alarm THAT I TOTALLY KNOW YOU TRIGGERED!” he shouted over his shoulder at the clerks.

Spinning he grabbed Harrison’s shoulders and the diamond watch and gave the other blue man a light push, “You can come as you are or cubed, but either way you’re coming with me.”

Harrison chuckled.  “I’m happy to come a long if you need the company.  It’s been ages since my last evil kidnapping.”  He gives the bowging bot one more affectionate pat on the head and begins walking towards the door, before turning back to the sales clerk.  

“Do put the Bvlgari on my account, and have the Versaces giftwrapped and delivered.  Have a nice afternoon!” he added cheerfully before allowing himself to be ‘kidnapped’ by the city’s latest blue villain.

“Why ever should I have to prove anything to you?” Megamind asked belligerently. Grumpily he shooed #329 who was now upset at the lack of attention and nuzzling into Harrison’s side. Finally he rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue, “Happy now?”

When Megamind sticks out his tongue, Harrison reaches out and grabs the other man’s chin so he can take a good look.  No tongue stud and moreover, no scar from having one in for years.  He lets go as soon as he realizes it.  This is not his Megamind at all.

“I’m so sorry,” he apologizes profusely.  “Truly.  I thought you were the Megamind I knew, he’s one of my best friends.  Mistaken identities are common with the dimensional convergence, but I should have known better than to assume.  Harrison Drake-Scott,” he says, extending a hand to the other blue man in friendly greeting.  “I take it you’re a recent transplant to this Metro City?”

“Hands to yourself!” Megamind jerked back, green eyes flashing indignant. He was about to say more when a brain bot flew up bowging a reminder of the time.

“No nicknames period!” Megamind threw up his hands in exasperation, “Are you ever listening to me three-twenty-nine? Not-Daddy needs to stop petting you and don’t you even give me that look!”

Teeth gritted he focused on the other blue alien again, “Not that it’s any of your business but I’ve never pierced my tongue and and evil has many uses hard crystalline structures,” he raised his brows archingly. He’d self pierced his eyebrow and nose in his teen years but those had healed up over the years. It was just a bad idea for a career villain. 

Harrison stops petting the brainbot and gives Megamind a ‘bitch please’ look.  He understands abstractly that Megamind has an evil image to uphold, but he’s not sure why his friend would lie about something so odd and insignificant. 

“Uh I’ve seen it with my own eyes, sweetie.  And heard the x-rated oral details from your ex,” he says pointedly.  “As well as having a copy of the technical specs for his tongue stud psi blocker sitting at home.”  Harrison takes a few steps closer and his voice drops lower.  “Is this an evil image thing?  I can never tell.”

Megamind floundered mouth working silently before bursting out, “The fuck are you talking about?!” snapping his mouth shut as he realized his slip he stomped angrily he hissed lowly, “I am thoroughly blaming you for that, Suit!”

A flush had creeped into his face, half embarrassment and half anger. Fists tight as glowered at Harrison, leaning into his personal space, “I am not your sweetie and I have no idea who on this ever loving evil rock you are. I do not have an ex and what I do with who I chose to do it with is none of your business.”

Harrison frowns and rubs his goatee thoughtfully.  Slowly he cocks his head and studies the man in front of him.  It’s absolutely Megamind, he has no doubt about it.  But that doesn’t mean much here in Metro City.  It could be a magic anon or this Megamind could be an entirely different person from the spastic blue alien he knows and loves.  The truth is…. even for someone of his superior intelligence…. he can’t tell.  But he certainly is grumpy, even more so than usual for the Megamind he knows and loves.  

“Well if you’re not my Megamind,” he drawls, still watching the other blue man very carefully.  “Then prove it.  Stick out your tongue.”  He raises an eyebrow in challenge.  

“Why ever should I have to prove anything to you?” Megamind asked baligerantly. Grumpily he shooed #329 who was now upset at the lack of attention and nuzzling into Harrison’s side. Finally he rolled his eyes and stuck out his tongue, “Happy now?”

Megamind faltered at that, a deep from settling on his face. The fuck did he just get called? That was new and certainly not welcome.

“Excuse me! I will deal with you momentarily,” Megamind pointed at the strange double. He did not know how to deal with that. The man’s presence was already throwing him off his groove. 

Pointing to the store clerk he demanded, “Paaaaalease don’t pretend this is your first robbery, jewels in the bags. and ah ah, they bite,” he playfully warned someone who’d attempted to stop a brain bot from digging through a cabinet.

Letting his bots go about the work of gathering the loot, Megamind turned his attention to the blue man, “One I’m not your pet, two don’t tell me your Megamind I’ve already had enough of that, three!” he turned glaring at the brain bot, “That is not your daddy!”

Harrison snorted as Megamind summarily dismissed him.  He wasn’t surprised however that it turned out to be a jewelry heist – while part of him would enjoy a good kidnapping, Wayne and Megamind had worked out a limited truce for Devins first few months.  No new parent needs the extra stress of abduction or robotic unicorns.  While Megamind bossed around the clerks, Harrison continued to pet the playful brainbot.  

“Whose a good boy for Other Daddy?” Harrison cooed, scritching the top of it’s plasma ball, careful to avoid the saw blade mounted on top.  “Yes you are!”  

He looked up at Megamind, watching the other man with a smirk as he ticked off the numbers theatrically.  “So no nicknames during evil business, check,” he says with a casual and comfortable laugh.  “I gotta say, I didn’t think this kind of jewelry was your thing.  I doubt they sell tongue studs here.”

“No nicknames period!” Megamind threw up his hands in exasperation, “Are you ever listening to me three-twenty-nine? Not-Daddy needs to stop petting you and don’t you even give me that look!”

The door to the shop banged open, smoke billowing inside as laser lights flashed. From speakers held by Brain Bots Trespassing started playing and blared throughout the shop. with a swagger and a shimmy Megamind strutted into the jewelry, de-gun already in hand. As “wait till ya get a load of me!” was sang he grinned wickedly a the staff, “Please, do try and behave yourselves, soft headed sheeple. Keep your hands away from any hidden buttons and we can all have just a lovely time!”

A small crowd of brain bots filed in behind him, snapping their jaws and looking threatening. One stopped in front of Harrison and bowged inquisitively.

As soon as he saw the smoke and lasers, a splitting grin spread across Harrison’s face.  He claps along with the song in obvious delight, happy to see his friend after another one of Megamind’s self-imposed periods of solitude.  The staff of the jewelry store doesn’t share his joy, immediately cowering at the sight of the city’s supervillain emerging from the smoke.  Harrison pays them not attention.  The brainbot that hovers in front of him reminds him of 10091, the bot Megamind gave him.  So he reaches out for the plasma dome without the slightest fear of the bear-trap jaws.  He gives it a few good natured pats then looks up at Megamind.  

“Long time no see, pet,” Harrison says through a fearless smirk.  “Evil plans afoot I assume?”

Megamind faltered at that, a deep frown settling on his face. The fuck did he just get called? That was new and certainly not welcome.

“Excuse me! I will deal with you momentarily,” Megamind pointed at the strange double. He did not know how to deal with that. The man’s presence was already throwing him off his groove.

Harrison perused the selection of high end watches with idle curiosity.  He certainly did not need a new watch, and in fact, Wayne would probably roll his eyes at anything he brought home.  He could just hear Wayne’s tone as his mate pointed out that he had a cabinet full of watches.  But after six weeks of being a stay-at-home dad, the blue man felt like he deserved something special and sparkly.  Or several sparkly things as it were.  

In fact the entire day was a bit of a treat.  Wayne had taken Devin to play with Six and Alice’s daughter, and while Harrison could have tagged along, he was relishing having some time all to himself.  He loved his son beyond words, but he already felt like he’d changed enough diapers for a lifetime.  Now he was seated and sipping sparkling water as the staff brought him dozens of designer watches to peruse on velvet trays. 

He couldn’t decide between a pair of Versace watches, so he decided to get them both.  Perhaps one would be a gift for Sheldon once he made up his mind.   When nothing had caught his eye after a half an hour, he considered leaving with just the Versaces.  But then he saw a Bvlgari watch so obscenely crusted in diamonds that no price was listed and instantly his hands went to the soft leather of the strap so he could try it on hi slender blue wrist.
