[Milliways: By The lake]

[slayer_fray]

It's a fine day, and Mel is out by the lake on her rocketboard, just chilling out, running through some practice maneuvres. Mike's up to his cute little human ears in paperwork, and Mel had become a little bored with helping him make paper airplanes out of every piece of paper he doesn't understand, and sneaked out to enjoy the outdoors.

Dr. Evil has ennui.

Sighing heavily, he took it upon himself this morning to explore his lair at the end of the universe, all the while wondering, don't I have minions for this sort of thing?An unfortunate turn in the kitchen saw him locked in the freezer for an hour.

It's probably the reflection -- he just had his head waxed.

Face pinched, Dr. Evil leaps forward and waves his arms around. Obviously, this hides the giant laser behind him.

Mel twists her feet around sharply to bring herself to a halt a few feet away, and tilts her head to eye him over an imaginary pair of glasses.

"My monkey doesn't talk. Not inh actual words. Which is fine, 'cause neither did Abu. What's that?"

The last sentence is accompanied by a nod of her head to the giant thing behind him, that he's so cunningly trying to conceal.
