{9th Deathray} Abandoned [In Person]

[Megamind found the letter in the rubble which was all he had left from Roxanne. His eyes were red from hiding his fears and his tears. He hasn't slept at all for three days and after reading the letter, he collapses. Now he knows what happened. He curls up under the structure that he wasn't finished with yet and draws his knees up to his chest. It was the hardest thing for him to endure.]

Emma, we can stop looking for Roxanne. I know where she is.

[The blame he placed on himself for the ship really didn't help matters. He was feeling terrible and it showed. Eventually, he falls asleep, clutching the letter tightly in his hands.]

[Oh. There wasn't much doubt as to who was meant with 'she'. Roxanne Ritchi. The only 'she' Ryuutaro had ever heard Megamind talk about... No. The only thing in general (besides science) that Megamind had every truly talked about to him. Or at least it felt like that.
If she had left this place, that explained everything about Megamind's current state of mind.

Ryuutaro felt the urge to just smile and say something about it being fate, but he stopped himself. Not even he was that cruel. Instead he offered a more harmless comment.]

Being sad is natural, but always remind yourself... This isn't a goodbye forever. You'll see her again.

That's what she said.

[He looks up and wipes his eyes. He still hadn't looked at Ryuutaro just yet simply because he wasn't exactly feeling himself and he wanted people to remember him as strong and not broken.]

Y-you really think so?

[He wanted to believe it himself. He wanted to work toward that goal but something didn't make sense to him. How is that she was able to leave when the portal was just a plan?]

The Author...wrote her out. This is a twisted place.

I do. [He sounded confident,even though he wasn't entirely sure. But there was no need to say that.]

And... yes, it is twisted. But there has to be a deeper meaning behind it.

[Something opened up deep within him that he hasn't been able to tap before. It was like his eyes were opened for the first time in years from a lifelong coma. He slowly stands up and looks at the ship then back at his surroundings. His brow knitted, his hands clinched into tight fists.]

This...isn't real. It can't be. I don't feel anything.

[It was numbing at the same time it was surreal. His head was swimming with all sorts of possibilities.]

[Not real? Either Megamind just had a really good realization or he was plainly going a bit crazy from the pain.
Ryuutaro was pretty sure that this was real. Especially after getting out of that starship with all of his injuries...]

I'm not sure what you mean by 'not real'. Until now I was under the impression that you thought it was reality as much a the next person does.

[He also got up, disliking to be down on the ground when the person he talked to was standing, therefore higher]

[His brow softens and looks at Ryuutaro. His shoulders relax visibly. There was something that needed to be explained on his part.]

I'm sorry. That's not what I meant. What's around us physically is real. What's not real is the fact that implications and assumptions of death and the perception thereof. She's alive...I know she is...she's simply not here which means my reality has shifted.

[Ryuutaro tilted his head, pointing his fan at Megamind slightly. It was not an energetic gesture this time, more of a movement that was done lost in though.]

I never was under the impression that those who left 'died'. If they did, it'd have to mean that by coming here we also died in our worlds. I consider it... unlikely.

[He nods his head. His thoughts are a little lost in the fact that Roxanne is gone now and he can't think properly. Welcome to the stages of grief, Megamind. You're in denial.]

Well, yes, that's true too. I'm feeling numb because she's not here. She...oh it's hard to explain. I guess I should have paid closer attention to what she was telling me from the beginning.

[Ryuutaro was reaching his limits at listening to emotional rambling. Yeah, already. Nobody ever said these limits were very hard to reach.
He took a step forward, pointing his closed fan at Megamind's mouth to make him shut up]

I absolutly understand that this is hard for you. You love her. And isn't that the reason you should pull yourself together now and be a man that is worthy of hers? [The last part was spoken pretty harshly while the first was said in his usual sweet tone.]

[His eyes widened and now he was the one that had to listen. Ryuutaro was right and the tone woke him up. How could he have let himself go this far down? It was time to do something about it than wallow.]

Y-yes...

[Ryuutaro smiled a sweet faked smile and then opened the fan]

Wonderful. I have faith in your ability to deal with this.

[Being jarred into reality again, he looked around and started to get to work again, this time, he wasn't going to speak on the matter any further. He needed the distraction.]

[Ryuutaro was perfectly fine with it, he wasn't up for being social anyway. He walked away and sat down again, though he remained within sight]

[He pulls out his De-Gun and uses the De-coupage setting which really does nothing more than to make something ugly look pretty. He smirks, looks over his shoulder at Ryuutaro and fires at the structure.]

Ha! Man, I do good work.
