Megamind X Child!Reader
Sometimes all it takes is one inconceivable choice to change the course of another person's life, the way your story begins is a prime example. Metro City... it was just that, a city named after its own hero, Metro Man. You live there as well, but not in the same way regular kids do. You were all alone. Just you, your skateboard, and several cans of paint, that was really all you needed. Every day was mostly the same, living your life as a young graffiti artist on the run, but it wasn't without reason, your inspiration for everything was centered on one individual; The blue-brained super-villain that went by the name Megamind. He was your idol, your role-model, heck, your entire world. You'd give anything to have a chance at being recognized for your work. To be in his presence, even if it was just for a few moments... But unbeknownst to you, that opportunity was fast approaching, and the events to come would change your life for the better, rather than worse. -Welcome to my second X Reader! :) Happy reading!-Complete
