And When the Sky Was Opened [open]

First, he had to hit Engineering to talk to this Billy fellow--and cross his fingers and hope for the best. This wasn't Metrocity, he hadn't saved the day here and worked for the peoples' trust, and while he'd read that Constitution about people not being punished for past crimes that didn't necessarily mean there wouldn't be attitudes of distrust and the like.

There was, of course, the option of lying about his former villainhood, but good guys weren't supposed to do that, right? And with Roxanne not remembering that he'd reformed, all he'd need was for her to mention he was a villain, and then he'd have to explain the whole thing, and then it would get all messy.

It was better people knew ahead of time. It was better that got their judging...thing out of the way ahead of time, especially if he was trying to work under them.

So off to Engineering he went. Now that he was fairly certain he didn't have anyone to intimidate, he wasn't wearing his cape or the collar, hoping to look as normal as possible.

Of course, on the way there, and afterward, he nosed around into many a place on the ship to look around, often blurting out "Incredible!" "Magnificent!" "Do you see that? That is the coolest thing I've ever seen!" and other such exclamations at the wonders he saw. The ship was a beaut, a techno-organic masterpiece!

[ooc: You can catch him poking around just about anywhere on the ship, although his jaunt to Engineering comes first chronologically. Just specify where he ran into your guy.]</font

What a strange, strange man.

Megamind liked him. What could he say? Manic eccentrics either annoyed him or endeared him to themselves. It depended on what parts of himself they reminded him of, the parts of himself he liked, or the parts he didn't.

The Doctor's curiosity and energy was something he liked.

"Unfortunately, no. Hopefully, he's in the pods. I can't imagine the ship would save just me and Roxanne and not him--aside from being my closest friend, he's incredibly capable. Good right hand man--always has been."

Minion certainly sounded incredible and not just in the a flying shark incredible. But Megamind wasn't going about it right. Right-hand man wasn't terribly accurate, was it? Right-hand fish, yes, but the Doctor suspected it'd be only arguing the semantics here. "Right-hand man/fish/whatever-you-wanted-to-call-it" would be too much of a mouthful, he suspected. Even if it had far, far more options. You could even pick and choose whatever suited you at the moment.

"So you've come here with at least one other person you knew. Know," the Doctor corrected himself. Present-tense, still alive. "Capable right-hand fish. I'll keep an eye out for him. He doesn't fly by any chance, does he?"

That would stand out. Although if Minion did happen to have flight down, the Doctor fully intended to keep his new new sonic away from him.

"Well, I suppose he could if I installed jet-boots, but currently, as it stands, no, he cannot fly," Megamind said, rubbing his chin as he considered the jet-boot option.

"He's very noticeable though. Look for a fish-bowl on top of a robot gorilla suit. Very difficult to miss."

Jet boots. The Doctor liked how Megamind thought. He certainly wasn't afraid to think outside of the box, although seeing a fish with a robot gorilla suit armed with jet boots was one of those things the Doctor simply hadn't thought of putting together. Creative and appreciative of good art like the Engineering Core. The Doctor couldn't help liking Megamind.

That beautiful blue head probably had something to do with it. It was begging to be congratulated.

The Doctor scratched the side of his cheek, thinking. "Haven't seen one of those. I'll definitely keep an eye out. What about using the omnicomms? See if you can trace his bio-signal onboard the ship. Mind like yours, I don't see it as being a problem."

"...That is a good idea!" Why didn't he think of that? "I can set mine up to alert me if he's ever on board."

Gosh, for a super-genius, he was sometimes a ditz.

He immediately took out his omnicom and started to go about doing that.
