Idiot kid... and parents... most of my cousins in to water sports were made to wear *helmets* in addition to the life vests...

Ooo that Mitchell has sure got a lot of nerve! Megamind probably shouldn't have been screening Roxanne's calls without her knowledge, but it's most likely for the best and I'm glad he was upfront about it. At least it didn't spark off another argument.

I enjoyed the description of the summer home, as well as the fact that both of them were suddenly filled with squeamishness at the thought that it would be a shrine to Metro Man. Roxanne was very mature and forthright about her contribution to the Mitchell problem. That bastard totally deserves everything coming to him. Very good to see Roxanne and Megamind make up.

Great description of the locals, and the region they're visiting! Megamind being swept away by the delicious peanut brittle was very funny. I liked his and Roxanne's conversations about travel, and his griping about the turkeys. Good thing Roxanne was able to draw him away from his grumpiness. And yes, it's also very good they ran into such a friendly shopkeeper, one who understands something about Megamind's automatic suspicion of people's motives.

this is a...novel which deserves to be published, not a fanfic. Truly amazing. Sorry to bother you with my grammar and my mistakes, English is definitely not my native tiongue (and not even my first foreigh language)... however I do definitely appreciate good written language! Great and mature story (much better than the usual "we love us and everything is now ok"), I loved the language (yes), the plot, the characters, the setting, the dialogues and the feelings. I am reading all your stories and I have to say, ... I enjoy them all. You are really an accomplished, skilled, professional writer. Thanks for sharing.

I can't begin to describe how many times my face scrunched up at the adorable moments or how nervous or indignant I was at your amazing bad guy. Fantastic. Simply fantastic and well written to boot. I really liked the montage Wayne set up and your take on how Megamind and Roxanne met. You're literally the most awesome thing ever!

*sigh happily*
I do so /love/ Door County... and you and GAFIA will always have a special place in my heart for being the first to introduce me to it.

Really enjoying the story, but I think you misunderstood the reason Megamind mispronounces things. If you think about it, all the words he mispronounces are words that could potentially be said more than one way. I ran into the exact same problem he did with the word 'melancholy,' because it's just so freaking ambiguous. And don't even get me started on epitome and misled. Anyways, you seem to be under the impression that he just can't pronounce shit sometimes, when from my point of view it's pretty clear that he's just never heard it said right. Or in the case of Metrocity, it's a habit. Point and case, in that scene where he disguises himself as Metro Man and says it, it is clearly indicated that Megamind said it on accident, not because he can't say Metro City.
Granted, that is a broad example. The scene where he mispronounces melancholy is probably a better one.
Now that I am done haranguing you about my little pet peeve, I would like to say that you are an awesome writer, and I really like this piece. I've read a few others by you, and I am grateful that you did not sacrifice quantity to achieve the high quality you did.

Just a small error I noticed while re-reading this (this is one of my all time favourite fanfictions)
It's the Seven Layers of Heaven and Nine Circles of Hell.
Sara chapter 7 . 10/15/2013
I'm curious, it sounds to me in this chapter they had sex. Even though you didn't type that in there, it just sounds like it. Like the way Megamind said to minion "that's all I'm going to say!" Lol. In any of the chapters do they have sex? Just wondering.

TOTALLY AWESOME!

Love your writing style, nice job.
Hebi R chapter 11 . 9/2/2012
Actually, in Hebrew the word would be pronounced Eph-rah-im; Hebrew words always take the stress on the last or second to last syllable, and Roxanne's version of the word is an Anglicized pronunciation of the Hebrew. It makes perfect sense that the Scandinavian version of the name would be very different.

Re: Turkeys, the ones in the Midwest must be very different from the ones back east, because our wild turkeys are IDIOTS. To the extent (on a memorable occasion) of one making numerous attempts to walk through too-small fence bars rather than simply going around the corner (and apparently forgetting he could fly).

I have to admit, I feel sorry for that poor little rich boy, and hope his father is a better parent than his mother.

Aww. *claps*

Also, I know it's a bit late, but despite how scary the event itself was, Roxanne getting away from Mitchell was one of my favorite moments in the story. She used a defensive move she saw in a movie, of all things. There's the woman who faced down an insane superpowered stalker with no protection (or so she thought).
BiblioMatsuri chapter 25 . 8/19/2012
Minion not only bought the de-gun, he tailored a special bulletproof outfit for Megamind just in case. Fantastic fish indeed.
BiblioMatsuri chapter 23 . 8/19/2012
Okay, the Kidnapping chapter turned out to be sweet, but The Mirror Crack'd cannot be good. The next chapter title seems to be a reference to "The Lady of Shallot", and a very bad sign.
