Phone Post; filtered from Megamind

[Not long after Megamind's tied up the line with ranting and raving, Roxanne sneaks onto the phone herself, and makes sure he's not going to pick the call up from another point in the house.]

[That means this call is pretty low-voiced, almost whispered, as she's-- trying to keep him out of this.]

I'm sorry-- uh, for earlier. Megamind's -- having a hard time after a particularly... upsetting package in the mail. [HER FAULT. Oh the guilt.] Please-- he's harmless. Entirely. I promise. He's-- never hurt me, in all these years of insanity.

Just please-- don't bait him, don't -- don't engage him while he's like this. If he doesn't get a good challenge, he might come to his senses.

[...she can hope.]

Thanks.

He's not really a dangerous supervillain, just a big ham? What is it that sets him off, anyway?

[pluckyreporter]

He-- got some mail he wasn't expecting.

[ra_ra_razputin]

And it makes him act like a comic book villain?

[pluckyreporter]

...yes, that's an... apt description.

[ra_ra_razputin]

Is he dangerous or anything? I mean, if you don't want anybody to bug him, that's fine, but if he's actually gonna hurt somebody then we gotta do something!

[pluckyreporter]

He-- shouldn't. He might make a bit of a mess but Megamind doesn't hurt people.

[ra_ra_razputin]

Harmless, huh? You know, if you need any help keeping people away, I can be a very good distraction!

[pluckyreporter]

..I'm not sure how that'd work...
