“No,” Minion replies, swimming from side to side to give the impression of shaking his head.   “Unless…..”  The fish frowned.   “Are you sure you’re okay, Sir?” he fussed at his charge.  ”Because after a big battle you need to rest and heal up so Mykaal is going to have to curb his desire for mating until you’re back at full strength.”

[He cringes at Minion’s blunt naivety, but answers softly.] I’ll be fine, Minion, and… yes. I will let him know that it’s not a good idea right now. [Oh god, one day he’ll REALLY need to explain to the poor fish about the whole thing. Maybe. Maybe never.]

“Okay.   Just be sure to rest and drink plenty of fluids Sir,” the fish said, still looking worried but patting Megamind’s shoulder protectively instead of insisting that he not go.   “Give Mykaal Sir my best.”

[Megamind puts his blue hand on Minion’s robotic one patting his shoulder, giving him a reassuring smile.] I can. But if you need us, you know to just let Mykaal’s brainbots know you need us back, alright?

Minion nods.  ”Of course Sir.  Oh and can you leave your watch on tonight?  In case I need to check in?” he asked, his little fishy eyes still full of worry.  It had been him and Megamind by themselves for so long, he still wasn’t used to having to share him yet even though he knew Mykaal Sir would take excellent care of his beloved Sir.  

[He gives a sympathetic nod, understanding.] Of course, Minion. And you can reach me at any time you need to. [He pauses, then adds with a small smile,] Always.

Minion nodded and lowered the baby hoglet back into her habitat next to her mother as carefully as possible.   Spike reguarded his large metallic hands with suspicion and immediately began sniffing and cleaning her baby once it was returned.   However once Minion’s hands were out of the habitat, it was clear that neither hedgehog was any worse for wear.   

“Goodbye Princess hedgehog,” the fish said with a friendly wave.  ”Daddy Minion will come back to see you again very soon.”   Then he looked over at Megamind with a bright smile.   

[He smiles back, glad to see Minion so happy.] You make me a list of what you need stolen for her eventual cage, and we’ll make it happen! Mykaal will need supplies soon too, I’m sure. [He waves a hand with that, grinning.] Speaking of, I should probably let him know I’m alright and free. Unless you need anything?

“Does she need to go back to her now?” Minion asked with a frightened look on his face.   He reached out with his arms, offering Megamind the baby hoglet.  ”I don’t want her to get separation anxiety!”

[Okay, that makes him laugh. Gently, of course. Instead of taking the hoglet he twists slightly to gesture to the cage he’s leaning against, and the other hoglets in the hidey hut with Spike.] Probably, but you should do it. I don’t want her getting too used to me…!

“Would you like that Princess?” Minion cooed at the hedgehog.  ”Yes, Daddy and Daddy Minion will make you hedgehog floaties and you and I will go for a swim together!”  

The fish was practically pressing her up against his glass dome, causing the little creature to ball up.  Perhaps it would take a little time to get the small animal used to him.  He looks up at his Sir with a big toothy grin.  ”Thank you Sir.”

[He giggles lightly, giving Minion a big beaming smile.] Yes yes, just remember she needs to stay with Spike for a while longer and all should be fine! [Leaning against the habitat is helping take the pressure off of his sore limbs, even if its temporary.]

“Maybe I can teach her to swim,” Minion said happily as he reached out very gently to caress her quilled back with one metallic finger.   “Do you think that I could teach her Sir?” he asked hopefully.   

Assuming she will float, I suppose anything is possible…! [He leans back, resting his weight on the hedgehog habitat’s protective wall.] Maybe we need to make her mini-floaties!

“Would you like that Princess?” Minion cooed at the hedgehog.  ”Yes, Daddy and Daddy Minion will make you hedgehog floaties and you and I will go for a swim together!”

Minion is oblivious to Megamind’s discomfort as he marvels at the little hoglet in his hand.   It seems so very small for such large hands and he may have to ask his Sir for smaller ones in the future.   He lets the tiny creature smell him and then looks up at Megamind.  

“Sir, do hedgehogs like water?”

Uhhh. [He stops to think, brows lowering as his eyes dart away.] …I’m not sure…? I’ve bathed Spike in the sink pretty painlessly, but other than that, I don’t know.

Minion crouched to study the little hoglet with a bright smile.   “She’s so cute!”   He reached out gently with his large metallic hands and took the tiny creature from his Sir.   “Don’t be afraid.   I’m going to be your new Daddy!” he said proudly to the little spiked animal.   

[The tiny hoglet rolls up a little but slowly relaxes as she sniffs his large metallic hands, eventually looking up at his moving fishy form and sniffing at the air.]

[Megamind watches and smiles, trying very hard to ignore how sore he actually was. He’d be fine, but he didn’t want to make Minion worry.]

Minion happily followed his boss to the hedgehog room, musing on names along the way.   “Depending on which one it is, we could go with Princess.   Or maybe Amelia….”

[He snickers at the name choices, not at all surprised at Minion’s not-so-evil taste in names. Arriving to the hedgehog room, he hurries over to Spike’s cage and takes a moment to look over the four babies before picking one of them up, turning to Minion with the tiny spiky hoglet in his cupped blue hands. He smiles wide as he shows his friend, offering her to him.] You want to pick them up from underneath if you can. They’ll startle otherwise. [And raise their quills, not that they would be an issue with a metal suit.]

Minion’s eyes lit up as he placed the last bandaid on Megamind’s arm.   “Really Sir?   A hedgehog of my very own?” he asked excitedly.   “Oh that would be lovely.   Then we would have all girls in the Lair.   Can I choose a name for it and everything?” he asked with wide exuberant eyes.   

[He smiles wide, nodding.] Yes~! Name her whatever you like~! [He tugs Minion’s robotic arm, even if he technically weighs way too much to pull along.] Here, follow, I’ll show her to you…!

“He appeared quite ruffled, Sir,” Minion agreed.   He was applying the gel in thin layers just like Mykaal-Sir had taught him.   Even though the bandaids were unnecessary for the healing gel to work it’s magic, he knew that they always made Megamind smile.   “And the hedgebots were adorable!  I even brought out Spike and the babies and held them up to the screen so they could see,” Minion said proudly.

[His eyes light up at that, beaming.] Did you? Ohh, my little hoglets are already learning the ways of evil~! It warms my black little heart~. [He wipes a fake tear, then nudges Minion’s suit with sudden realization.] Oh, say, Mykaal picked out on of them to keep, and it just so happens to be another female like Spike! And there is one other female left, so… You know, if you’d like one… [He bites his lower lip anxiously, hoping Minion will agree to keep it. Letting go of the other two babies will already be hard enough!]

Minion is used to dealing with Megamind’s wiggles and he finishes cleaning his wounds just as the pack returns with one container of healing salve and a box of evil bandaids.  

“It was heart stopping Sir!   A brilliant diversion!  He certainly makes for an entertaining hostage.  Very different than the dynamic with Miss Ritchi,” the fish chirped as he started to rub small amounts of gel into the scratches on Megamind’s head and face with his large robotic fingers.  

[He nods enthusiastically, even if Minion is trying to work on him.] Yes~ [He rubs his sore hands together, grinning to himself.] And that certainly ruffled Metro Man’s heroic feathers. Just as planned~!

“Disgustingly horrifying, Sir,” Minion said proudly.   He instructed the brainbots to bring the healing gel from Mykaal Sir as well as some bandaids.  Most of the pack of bots bounded off on that errand and Minion hoped the supplies would arrive only minimally chewed.   

“My favorite part was the quill missiles, Sir.   An excellent twist and beautiful presentation,” the fish said as he continued to gently wipe clean the cuts on Megamind’s giant blue head.   “Some of your best work to date.”

I know~! [He beams, wiggling in place and inevitably making Minion’s attempts at taking care of his injuries that much more difficult.] And when I threw Harrison into the air?

“Oh!  Oh, I’m so sorry Sir!” Minion fussed as he set the smaller man down.   “Oh, you’re all scraped up!” he noticed for the first time.  

“I swear, Metro Man is so careless sometimes,” the fish tutted as he got a damp clean towel to wash the scratches.   “I was trying to keep the brainbots deployed at the scene and I saw the whole thing on the moniters!   That man is a menace.  He really should be more careful.”

I know, right? [He huffs back, straightening out what was left of his outfit after being set down. He lets Minion clean the scrapes, standing still as he does.] Completely careless~! Ooh, tell me, tell me, what was your favorite part? [He bounces a little with that, excitedly.] Did I look bad?
