“Oh wow,” he heard a voice exclaim behind him. “That was a big one!” when Steve turned around he saw a skinny, blue skinned man standing not a few feet from him. Jack, needing to go out to do some quick shopping for the apartment, held a hand above his face as he watched as the sky rumbled and growled as if a beast possessed.
Feeling he was being watched he turned his head a little, and smiled brightly when he saw who it was. “Steve?” he asked, “Oh, wow. Steve, it’s been ages!” he said brightly, approaching the man. “Jack, remember? I know, look,” he pointed to his pencil thin Vincent Price mustache on his upper lip. “This is new but it’s me.”
“Jack?” he asked, blinking in surprise at the shorter alien. He hadn’t seen him in a long time and was surprised to see him look different. He didn’t look as shy as when they had first met.
“Well this is a coincidence,” he continued, a slight smile on his face. “Hey that’s a good look for you. Now you don’t look like Megadork. How’ve you been?”
Jack grinned slightly, folding his arms over his chest. Megadork? That was almost cute. He shrugged his shoulders slightly. “Yes well… I didn’t like being mistaken for him as often as I want. Last I checked Megamind didn’t have pierced ears too but I guess people don’t pay that much attention.”
He then smiled softer, dropping his arms by his side. “I’ve been… well. A mix of amazing and not. You’ll never guess!”
