Oh! I got on! Um. Hello, I'm Don Dogoier? This seems like the public network here... I'm uh. I guess I'm here to help? I'm an engineer or a mechanic or whatever. They seemed pretty excited when I brought that up.

[rustling, shuffling noise]

Uh! I'm also looking for my ship! It's the Gokai Galleon? It's red, it looks like a seafaring ship, but it's a space vessel... My friends should be on it. I hope. If they are, I'm sure they've made a scene already. If anyone has seen a group of pi- er. People... With a guy in red? If you could point me to where they are before my frozen food thaws... I'd appreciate it.

I hope they're here..... If not, could anyone tell me where I can find a fridge?

Doc?!

[Okay, man, get it under control.]

...there meat in there?

Marvelous? Is that you?

[more shuffling]

What am I saying, of course it is... Uh huh, there's meat. I even bought some beef, I was gonna make sukiyaki with Gai! He says he's got this recipe...

Okay well! Just tell me where you guys are! Actually, why don't you come pick me up, I guess there aren't any.... trains here....

Who the hell else would it be?!

[Wait, the others?]

You didn't come in with anybody?

[Of course not.]

Where are you? Temple, Rec Center, what?

Nobody else is here, hope you memorized that recipe of Gai's.

...Oh. No one? Wh-

Where are they? I'm at a temple. To Solus. I have this glyph on my arm? I didn't draw it on this time, it's actually there! I swear!

[a pause]

Where's everyone else?

No clue. I've been here a while already.

Solus, got it. You know what to look for.

[...okay, he can't let that go.]

You sure about that? Never heard of that on anyone else.

[He's glad he learned to lie with a straight face.]

A while, what's a while?

Oh no, I bet the place is a mess. You up there all alone!! Leaving garbage everywheree!!!!

[More rustling]

You're kidding! Is Solus the only one who gives a mark? Maaan... I swear if it were something I'd put on it would be something different.

I dunno, couple'a months?

Like that even matters?! It's not that bad.

[Yes it is.]

Yeah, you like stars better, don't you?

[The city's not that big, for a ship as large as the Galleon: Don will see the shadow of the ship cast over the temple's front soon enough.]

There you are. I see you.

[Don waves up at the Gokai Galleon without his customary sunny smile. He looks a little concerned, actually. Then he glares down at his Mobirates.]

That star was cool-looking and also I apologized!!

[Marvelous considers calling down with his beloved Megaphone. Instead, he hops down on a line.

When he straightens up and dusts off his coat, he smirks at Don.]

Looks like my groceries made it here fine.

That star was drawn on with Sharpie, you idiot.

[A biff to the top of the head. But a soft one, comparatively.]

[He ducks under the blow, rubbing his head.]

Hey! It was not!

[He cradles the groceries and looks down at them]

If I'm here because you wanted food....

[His gaze on Marvelous is keen, he looks up and down partly to verify that it's really him, and partly to make sure he really has been here for a while. He looks different enough that the story is true. Marvelous is pretty bad at lying to the crew, though. His lips purse in concern.]

[It said something about how long it had been, that Marvelous doesn't follow up. Yet.]

Uh-huh.

[He doesn't believe you, Don. Either way, he leans back to cross his arms over his chest.]

You makin' sure I'm still me, or what?

[He rubs his arm.]

It was makeup and I worked really hard on it!

[He sighs and goes back to sizing Marv up.]

I dunno. It's weird. I saw you this morning. You look skinnier.

[He reaches forward, almost about to tug Marvelous' sleeve, or feel his arm. But instead he just slaps his shoulder, open-palmed, and the bag of groceries almost falls. He gets his hand under it before anything falls out.]

I might drop these if I try to get them up there myself. I'll cook if you take the bag.

[Not like he wasn't going to cook anyway. Something tells him he needs to appeal a little to Marvelous' pride. Of all of them, he was the one who Don thought probably disliked being alone the most. Or else, why would the rest of them even be there?]

[He rolls his eyes, unimpressed.]

Next time just be you, you moron.

[He puffs up at the next, annoyed, but it's true. His coat's a little looser in the shoulders.]

That's what happens when the guy you took on to cook disappears.

[Marvelous didn't miss Tuck or anything, no. Hadn't missed his crew, either. Never. He reaches out to take the bag, even though he's pretty sure he's being played.]

Can't have that. You were cookin' anyway, but get goin'.

[Then he unceremoniously reaches into the bag and finds an apple, which he bites into. He gestures with it toward the ship.]

The bird's waitin'.

[He looks affronted as Marvelous takes the bag.]

You had someone else come in to cook? Did you let him stay in my room, too?

[He screws up his mouth and then decides to let it slide. If Marvelous had been here for as long as he was trying not to say he had, someone staying in his room is the least of his problems.]

Navi's here too? Well, that's something. At least you weren't all alone.

[He tugs at the rope to reel up towards the ship as it occurs to him that Navi and Marv all alone together was probably the worst combo of crew members possible.]

Of course I did! Yours had the least crap in it.

[Actually, Ahim's did, but he couldn't exactly give away her room, what with the frills and all that.]

Don't worry, I moved the stuff he left out.

[Or more specifically, he'd dropped Tuck's pack in the corner of his own quarters in hopes that he'd be able to return it to him eventually.]

Might've been better to be alone.

[He follows Don with minimum food loss, largely because even though he wants to dump all the carrots out, it's still food and he'd like to stretch it out a little.

Navi is waiting in the main cabin, when they finally make their way up.]

[As he goes up, he thinks about how clearly whoever Marvelous is speaking about is gone. Man... This isn't going to be good at all. Marvelous is so bad at being alone, and even worse at being alone with Navi. He comes up the stairs to the cabin, which definitely doesn't look like he left it. He tries to ignore that for the moment, but his skin practically itches with the desire to clean.]

Hey Navi. How've you been??

[Without waiting for a response, he grabs the grocery bag from Marvelous and starts setting it out to prepare a meal. He feels responsible for Marvelous' skinniness, though it clearly isn't his fault.]

I'll make something now... But... It didn't look like food was easy to find out there... Should I be rationing?

[As he sorts out the vegetables, meat, and various types of pre-made meals he had bought... This situation is something he doesn't really think can be resolved in a week or two, like their usual extra-universal problems. He's already starting to miss Joe and Ahim and Gai and even Luka. The place is so empty of their influence already.]

[Marvelous settles back in his chair, one knee crossed over the other. He looks sidelong over his shoulder at Don, keeping an eye on him in the scant seconds before Navi finds her way over the thump Don in the back of the head with her metallic talons.]

Doc! Took you long enough.

[For all her bluster, the bird only hits him once or twice before she moves to settle on Don's shoulder, if he'll let her.

Meanwhile, Marvelous considers the food predicament.]

Don't ration all of it, stuff comes into the Junk Pile all the time. Maybe keep an eye on the stuff that'll keep, though.

[Which is Marvelous for 'I kind of cleared out the pantry between drops'.]

Ah! Ow!!

[He rubs the back of his head where she gave her love-taps. He lets Navi perch on him, and then sticks his tongue out at her.]

Hey, c'mon. I'd have been here if I knew that there was a here. Did you miss cuddling with me, Navi?

[He continues to sort out the groceries, stacking boxes of curry roux and sorting the perishables by how long they'll last.]

What's the junk pile?

[He's pretty good at reading Marvelous' moods, especially when it comes to food. He sorts out the chicken legs and fresh vegetables that he's gonna use to make food right now, then he turns and crosses his arms.]

Did you eat everything in the place? Like, my seasoning and the stuff I was saving for a rainy day or a celebration, too?

[ Navi laughs at the cuddling question, but there might be some truth to it. Marvelous let her perch, but beyond that he had no time for a girl's needs. ]

Not an excuse! Crews have a job, and Marvelous can't run a whole ship by himself.

[ Marvelous sits up in his chair to scowl at her, but then Don is asking him something, and he shifts his attention. ]

I didn't eat all your stupid seasonings.

[He rubs Navi's head, anyway.]

I know, I know. I'm here now, okay!

[He gives Marvelous a seeking look and frowns.]

But you drank my cooking sherry didn't you? And that champagne that Gai bought for a special occasion.

[Then he sighs, knowing the answer before he even asks.]

And what's the junk pile? I didn't exactly see any grocery stores out there, are we eating out of a robot dump?

[That is the poker face of a guilty man, Don.]

Dunno what you're talkin' about.

[He shrugs.]

Maybe technically. Stuff falls out the tear.

[He sketches at the air with one finger.]

[Don just gives a little sigh.]

I can deal with just the mirin for now.

[He pauses at the imagery the hand gesture conveys.]

Like they said I did. Well, that's convenient. Sort of.

Of course you can.

[He has faith in your cooking abilities, see?]

Sort of. No sayin' what you'll come up with, but it's not like anybody's starvin'.

[He gathers up one of the piles of groceries in his arms.]

Well, I guess we'll have to see about that later. This should last us for a while, anyway. Since there's just two of us....

[His voice is just a touch hollow, but he hurries along to put things away in the kitchen.]

So... What's the deal here? I mean, I got the speech about... The whole brave new world and all the riches we could gain by helping it along or whatever. But I mean. What are we doing?

[It's not for Marvelous' ego that he asks. It's not like he's Captain in name only, so Don very naturally defers to him. Polarity and alignment and minor differences in moral outlook notwithstanding, he'd follow Marvelous wherever they had to go.]

[Just the two of them was infinitely better than just him, in Marvelous's opinion.]

That a challenge?

[He hums, thinking.]

I'm not much for building.

[He's also not much for admitting he doesn't really know what he's doing.]

I've been--teaching, a little. Killing monsters.

[Well, Don is not much of an idiot, at least not when it comes to picking apart when his Captain is trying to hide something. He can tell that Marvelous is relatively directionless, because that "Pirates take what they want" "Let's make a show of it" attitude seems to be lacking immensely. He puts away that nugget of knowledge for the moment and presses on.]

All that and you still had time to make this place a pigsty!

[He fusses aloud as he socks away all of the groceries, making sure to use some of his less common vegetable hiding spots. He picks out a practically mummified daikon from one of the more obscure ones, and tucks a new one away in it.]

Well, at least I'm here now.

[He comes back out of the kitchen, wiping his hands, and then he pulls a rag out of the pocket of his apron, still hanging on the hook where he left it, and wraps it around his head.]

All right, stay out of my way, Marvelous!

[And he begins his cathartic quick-cleaning, complaining all the way]

[It takes a lot for Hinata to actually be seen. But this is a human--the voice lacks the metallic ring of the other kind, and he sounds like he might be lost and friendly. Not scary like so many of these robots.]

Dongoier-san? You have a ship here?

Yeah! I'm with Marvelous... I guess he's been here a while? And it's, uh, it's Dogoier... ha ha..

Hey, you okay? You need help?

There's someone named Marvelous?

[She just arrived in the midst of a robopede invasion. She hasn't had a chance to meet, well, anyone.]

Oh. S-sorry. I'll remember next time!

I'm fine, thank you. I just am [Scared. Lonely.] C-curious.

Oh, did you just get here too? Yeah, Captain Marvelous is uh... My captain. The captain of the ship. I'm like... the... I guess the mechanic.

[There's a note of sympathy in his voice]

It's all right! Uh. I don't really know what it's all gonna be like... I've probably got to get a briefing or something. What's your name, though?

[Okay, the idea of a ship traveling through space rather than by sea catches her interest.]

I cannot say I have seen a ship here, seafaring or otherwise.

[His voice sounds kind of concerned]

Oh, well. It's big and red and it flies. I guess you'll probably see it sometime soon? Did you just get here too?

So it is hard to miss...

Not really. I have here a little over a month.

O...h...

[Something about her voice makes him nervous.]

Uh. Well, hey... Wave if you see us?

[Just ... to make sure ...]

You don't know a guy who goes by the name "Hellhound" do you?

Uh... No? Why?

He wears red and is Japanese. But luckily, if you don't know him, then I won't have to kick your ass. So don't worry about it.

Oh, well... Marvelous isn't Japanese and neither am I. We're from space. So, hopefully that's even further from people whose asses you'd have to kick?

It sounds like you're in the clear, but we'll see, kiddo.

[He's hoping pretty fervently that this woman doesn't have anything against pirates.]

Oh... Good. Okay. Ha ha. Cool. I'll try to stay on your good side, ma'am.

[No, not at the moment at least.]

You might survive here after all, kid.

Welcome aboard, Mister Dogoier. Enjoy your culture shock. Not all of us are robots, however, so there's that, I guess.

... Can't say I've found me a 'fridge yet. Please tell me if you do. Though I wouldn't recommend goin' out lookin' anytime soon.

[He's amused at how well you're taking all this, haha.]

Hey, hi. I'm pretty good with culture shock, ha ha. I mean, you kind of have to be when you're a... space traveler type. I mean the last time I was stuck in a weird alternate dimension it was pretty much full of robots, so at least there's that.

It was more old west than prehistory, though. The robots here are a little scarier?
