[VIDEO] [SIGNAL SCRAMBLED]

[megamind]

[This comes in unclear. Where-ever it is, it's not a recognizable temple that anyone else has been in... so far. Very dimly lit, with tarps harvested from the recent appearnce of the Home Depot covering thigs in dirty gray, blazingly bright orange, and ever popular crap-ass fall colors. ]

[ Megamind is in a jury-rigged chair, turning tools over in his hands. He tilts his head, looking a little bemused at the camera. ]

My, we've gotten some new warm bodies -- and some new rubaht bodies [ he will never not mangle the word robot, apparently ] and so far, no more monsters. Very good, that. But I keep hearing about this gathering and that gathering and... honestly. I think some of you are missing the point.

Aren't we supposed to be creating something fantastic? Something marvelous out of a whole new world? And you guys barely have a farm going for the little organics over there! [ ...says a little blue organic. Well, he might have something sustaining him, so far. THe needs of one are much smaller than the many. ] I hear about venues and farms, but... then it keeps interrupting with gathering here and there to socialize. I guess some people need the shoulders of giants and all... [ This is Megamind, subtly mocking the very idea of working with someone. ]

Ah well. I guess none of you are quite what the giant rubaht godlings ordered! Carry on then with your meaningless little frivolities!

[ And with that he's off the screen. Megamind hasn't been a dick to a stranger in weeks, so, you know, had to get that out of his system. ]

Megamind Dude, you sound kinda cranky. What's the deal? Anythin' I can do to help?

I dunno much 'bout farming, but I'm working on a recreational center, personally. Kind of a go-to place for fun an' food.

[megamind]

Cranky? Why would I be cranky? [ ...hello, Megamind you just blabbed to everybody, basically. ] I mean, you're all focusing on your little joys and human needs. Or, uh. Your... social... needs.

I just don't have any!

[inferiordude]

You mean, you don't wanna be around people? Why not?

VIDEO;

[megamind]

Because most of them possess inferior minds?

VIDEO;

[inferiordude]

You really think that? That's a bummer.

But even if you feel that way, I'm sure there's other stuff you can like about them, even if you don't feel like they're as smart as you.

[megamind]

You can see my head, right? The brain is big for a reason. I know, my rocking rubaht, that I'm smarter then most people.

Probably anybody here, that's for certain. [sigh.]

Like what? I mean at least you have good taste in music, so that's... something.

[inferiordude]

I just kinda thought you had a big head... [Scratches his faceplate awkwardly. Maybe it was just a design quirk, he didn't know.]

Heh, well, I appreciate that! But you know, lots of people have good aspects to them. Maybe a common interest, or you like the way they paint, or when they play games with you. It's good that yer so smart an' I'm glad yer real confident, Megamind, but that doesn't mean you gotta cut yerself off from dudes.

If we're going to be here for a while, it makes sense to get secure first before starting anything major, right?

[Video]

[megamind]

I don't know what parties have to do with being secure!

[Video]

[deusexraf]

That, I can't explain.

[Video]

[megamind]

I'll have you know I'm totally secure! Right where I'm at! [...sort of.]

[Video]

[deusexraf]

And...where are you?

[Video]

[megamind]

Not with you saps, that's for sure!

[video]

[herodecoded]

Your skull is as loaded as your ego, the result of years of accumulated hot air, no doubt.

[video]

[megamind]

Oh, shut up Hamlet.

[video]

[herodecoded]

Enough of your games, Prospero. What have you done that is so astounding!?

[video]

[megamind]

[ Megamind's brows shoot up; well, then! That's... high praise. Prospero's an awesome... hero. Sigh. Well, he'll run with it. ]

[ He recovers, shifting in his chair, before he gestures, spreading his fingers as if offering a hint, though he gives nothing. ]

In time, in time, the rabble will know.

[video]

[herodecoded]

[He snorts derisively.]

Much like the exiled sorcerer, you bide your time, idling your hours in frivolities.

[video]

[megamind]

Frivolities!? No! That's exactly what I avoid! I work, sweat and toil.

Not that you know anything about sweat. Or toil, probably.

[raceme]

I am curious now WHAT sort of fantastic thing would you create instead of first taking care of the basic needs?

[megamind]

It doesn't concern you, law bot.

[OH YEAH HE KNOWS WHO YOU ARE LAW BOT.]

[raceme]

The correct term is Elite Agent.

[OH YEAH WELL IT WASN'T A SECRET.]

[megamind]

Law bot.

[raceme]

I am ^supposed to be offended or...? Because I'm not I've been called way more offensive things than that.

[megamind]

I don't care if you're offended or not!
