[Video | Gokai Galleon]
[A video feed starts, but the screen is black]
All right, this is--
[Sound cuts off, and then both that and the video cut back in to a young man in a bright red coat sitting in a chair, one leg crossed over the other at the knee; a bronze mechanical bird is perched on the chair's back. His brows are drawn down in a clear sign of annoyance.]
There. All right, this is Captain Marvelous, from the Pirate Sentai, Gokaiger. I'm kinda foggy on all the details here, but--
[He cuts off when the mechanical bird begins offering suggestions, and after shoving the bird off-screen, he turns back.]
Like I said, a little foggy on the details, but this is your only warning.
[A smile spreads over his face. It's not terribly comforting.]
If you've got treasure, good luck holding onto it.
[More shouting, ostensibly from the bird; the young man makes a series of clearly angry gestures at it before he speaks again.]
Dammit, Bird, I know.
So, my crew might be here! If you've seen 'em--Joe, Ahim, Luka, Gai, and the Doc, they're humans, they're trouble, they'll tell you they're mine if you ask--let me know so I can pick 'em up.
If you're my crew and you're sittin' around watchin' this--I've dropped anchor out behind whatever freakin' temple this is, Megatronus or whatever.
Anyway, onto important questions--there any meat around here?

And Two: Are you going to tell me about them, because that sounds like something I'd like to hear.
no subject
It wasn't that big a deal. Fought an evil empire, destroyed a reality-warping treasure, ate some curry.
Might have some stories for you, if you really want'em.
no subject
Wouldn't ask if I didn't want to hear it in the first place.

All right, lemme try and break this down. I'm a pirate, right? But I'm a Gokaiger, too. Makes me a supersoldier, gives me the Megazord, all that stuff's part'a the package. We weren't the first, though, we were the 35th. And their powers all got lost to the far corners of the universe protecting Earth from the Zangyack invadin'. I wanted those powers, so I got 'em. Usin' 'em unlocked the Greatest Treasure in the Universe, which turned out to be a bunch'a crap, so we trashed it.
Basically the six of us beat down the Zangyack, met some old guys who used to be Sentai before us, and we were flying to the Zangyack homeworld when I found myself here.
I totally want to watch this now. A+ sum-up Marvelous
Marvelous: king of understatements
Technically we were in port, but yeah. Crew was out gettin' supplies while I took a well-earned nap.
More like best statements
[That earns a chuckle.] A well-deserved nap for the treasure hunting thing or were you prepping for the beatdown?
He's just not sure what the big deal about universe saving is!
Was driving all night. Somebody's gotta keep an eye on things, and I don't trust anybody else with the steering wheel, you know?
Someone should tell him about the Hubble Deep Field
And don't you mean flying?
someone should.
Yeah, but it feels like driving, dude, there's a wheel and everything.
One day it will happen it must it is my quest
Seriously. Video tour of the ship. I'm not a flier and I'd probably cramp it up, but I gotta see the insides of this thing. [Might make more sense that way.]
good, good
Yeah, fine, gimme a sec. Bird, hold the Link.
[There's a muffled few noises, and then the camera flickers on and off a few times before it comes on for good. Marvelous gestures to the diagnostics board, then the kitchen table, then his admittedly impressive chair and the treasure box next to it, then the couch.]
Main cabin. Then we've got the bridge--c'mon, Bird.
[There's a lot of feminine grumbling about bossy Captains who can't do anything for themselves, also her name's not Bird, dammit, but it's quiet as the Link swoops through the hall and a doorway to reveal the bridge. It's dominated by a large gold-and-red helm in the style of a ship-faring pirate ship. Marvelous leans on one of the spokes of the massive wheel, doing the world's laziest Vanna White impression.]
Bridge, helm aaaaand once the Bird turns you'll be able to see outside.
no subject
[Swerve managed to make a few attempts to whistle before giving up. It's actually a pretty difficult thing to do when you don't really have lips built into your frame. He is pretty obviously impressed. Less about the splendor and more about the craftsmanship.]
And you just inherited this or whatever?
