Inspired by this utterly adorable one-shot by @azulemega, here are Megamind and Minion all dressed up to crash the Metro City annual ball xD

This was SO much fun to draw xD 

I’m sorry if you pictured it differently Azulmega – especially Megamind’s outfit ^^; I just couldn’t bear to draw him not being his usual (wonderful) over-the-top self xD

OMG! Everything about this picture is perfect @astrartis! Thank you so so much! I absolutely love Megamind’s tux design. You got him spot on. This made me so happy and once again, you made my day. *hugs*💙

Friend: “…so I was thinking I’d make a cute malfunctioning android outfit to fit the theme!”
Me: “Excellent Idea Here Are Some Links To Prosthetics I Think Would Work For That Purpose.”
Friend: “…Ship. Those aren’t cute. Those are scary.”

but…. they’re cute to me…. 

Mild existential terror adds pathos and breeds sympathetic feelings.

More than just hair on this guy’s chinny chin chin

The long barbel on the chin of this dragonfish (Stomias boa) has a glowing tip that may attract prey. With its large mouth and sharp, curved teeth, the fish makes quick work of any prey that venture too close. Scaly dragonfish live at depths of 200-1,500 meters (656-4,921 feet) and grow up to 32 centimeters (12.6 inches) long.

X-ray binary (black hole devouring a star)

X-ray binaries are a class of binary stars that are luminous in X-rays. The X-rays are produced by matter falling from one component, called the donor (usually a relatively normal star), to the other component, called the accretor, which is very compact: a neutron star or black hole. The infalling matter releases gravitational potential energy, up to several tenths of its rest mass, as X-rays. (Hydrogen fusion releases only about 0.7 percent of rest mass.) The lifetime and the mass-transfer rate in an X-ray binary depends on the evolutionary status of the donor star, the mass ratio between the stellar components, and their orbital separation.

An estimated 1041 positrons escape per second from a typical low-mass X-ray binary.
