12th great power stolen - what's up with this father's day

A: Outside 1250 Williams, early morning. OPEN

No, I don't-- [ Argh! Why was his so called kids looking at him with those friggin' puppyeyes and why were they trying to cling? ] I don't want to go to dinner with your mom, now let me go, damnit.

B: Around Mayfield. OPEN.

[ After having snuck out of the house after his "children" and "wife" tried to coax him into something called "fathers day", Basco wasn't the most pleased. Sure, if they had been normal and not drones - it was still weird to watch their faces and think that they didn't actually have those personalities, and then it had been quite some time - then it would have been alright. As it was now, he's a bit irritated at everything in general. ]

C: Olney's Tavern, later afternoon. OPEN

[ He's all but collapsed against the bar, and has buried his fae against his arms. So.. tiresome... Not only had he run into his "kids" when they were out playing, but he'd also run into his "wife". And they all requested him to go on a dinner in the evening. Drones just didn't listen did they? Augh! ]

D: Phone, evening. OPEN

...I don't think I like this "fathers day" thing.. I really preferred the zombies.

((( ~~I have a terrible deja vú about B for some reason...~~ Either way, Basco's not!family seem to not be affected into doing anything the father want them to... He's quite pissed at me for that but no matter no matter~ )))

[Marvelous saunters in, still in a bit of a funk due to supreme Daddy/Mentor issues. He sees Basco, but could not give less of a crap right now about history. Right now...he needs a stiff drink.]

Oi, if you're workin here...gimmie something strong.

[ Basco look up when he hears that voice. ]

Hello, Mabe-chan.

[ He straightens up, and grab a glass. ]

Are you as entertained by this day as I am?

Depends on your definition of 'entertained'.

[Which from Basco, at least to Marvelous, could mean anything.]

Brings up a ton of memories I ain't feeling up to dealing with right now.

What do you think?

[ Oh really now. ]

Hmm... Well, I guess it would.

Considering today...probably the exact opposite. Well...that and the disgruntled look on your face when I came in.

For more reason than you might think.

[Not everything is AkaRed-related after all.]

Yeah, today's a pain in the ass.

Since I don't know all you've been up to, that's understandable.

[ What is this unusual way of understanding today,he's not really used to it, but he don't feel like messing around too much right now. ]

Cheers to that.

It's more what other people were up to, rather than me. And...that's all long in the past. LONG. Before the Akaki Pirates long.

[Daddy issues seeping through...]

Stuff you haven't told me about, then.

[ And he had thought that he knew more about Marvelous than Marvelous knew about him, but possibly, they knew about the same amount. ]

There wasn't a lot to tell, in all honesty. You would've gotten bored.

Oh never, not when it's about Mabe-chan.

Looking for more to hang in front of me?

[He will give a small grin. Without Basco's constant interference and douchery, he's getting comfortable around him again. Probably one of the more dangerous states of mind to be in, but Marvelous doesn't care at the moment.

Still, if given the chance, he'd still beat him to a pulp. But, again, not feeling it now.]

So, I didn't tell you about my parents then?

If you think I am. [ He shrugs. that's not really what he's after. ]

[ He's started to feel that it's much easier to talk like they did before Basco betraying Marvelous and AkaRed happened. It feels surprisingly good, or maybe it's not that surprising, he's missed talking normally to Marvelous. ]

No, you didn't.

[ Not that Basco has ever told Marvelous about his parents or anything either.. ]

I'm joking.

[He'll sigh and take a drink.]

Before Zangyack razed our planet, it was just my mother and I. The old man had some super-important job that I can't quite remember what it was. Mom was pretty proud of him, so I never thought about it too much.

[ Basco give a small smile at that comment, then lean his face against his palm as he listens. This interests him a bit too much, perhaps, but already he can hear how different Marvelous' family was from his own. ]

Because of that though...he was never around.

[Another growly sigh and another shot.]

Bird Planet managed to fight off Zangyack in the end...but there was nothing left for me there. That's why I left. I had to go find Pops. Tell him Mom was missing.

[He never did find her body.]

Ended up getting pretty sidetracked. Zangyack had to be stopped, no matter what.

I should go back someday. After I grab a hold of my dream.

I gotta say becoming a Red Pirate and a Gokaiger is getting more than a little sidetracked. You found him yet? [ Leaving someone like Mabe-chan all alone in the world... Though Basco had pretty much done the same, but worse, in one way... ]

I'd say. I guess revenge had a stronger pull on me than I'd thought.

Nah. Without any real knowledge of what that job is, and the fact that I can barely make out his face in my mind...

Was he a diplomat? Or a cop or something? Aggghh!

[He'll scratch at his head before downing another shot.]

I he was a cop, isn't that a bit.. not that good? I mean, he'd probably arrest you before you had the time to introduce yourself, unless he recognise you.

Eh...I've dealt with cops before. Even got shackled to one of the bigwigs of SPD and came out ok. They've even wiped us off their wanted list.

But honestly...what cop organization in their right mind would knowingly take criminal announcements from Zangyack seriously?

[Read: ALL of them!]

Of course you have, I've dealt with them too. But that makes me jealous; wiped from the SPD's list, that's a rare thing. ou must've done something really nice, huh.

[ He smirks. ]

About any. Especially if it's pirates we're talking about.

Well...they are part Super Sentai. I think that may've had something to do with it.

Strange how many of them there are, isn't it?

So that's why you got off easily.

Probably more than you know. [ Probably more than Basco knew, too. He's seen Zangyack's collection of wanted posters, though. ]

Well...I guess helping Kruger out was a plus too.

I'm surprised we haven't run into the Galactic Union Police at this point. They seem to be everywhere.

Mabe-chan sure is lucky.

[ Huh? Marvelous hadn't met them yet? ] They seem to be more interested in other things right now. From what I've heard.

[Nope. He's still mired in the previous year. No Space Sheriffs for him.]

Well, that saves us some trouble.

[ Hmm, maybe he should tell him? Or maybe not? He'll ponder that in silence for a while, thne shrug it off. oh well, it's not like it concerns him anymore. ]

Just you wait, Mabe-chan dear.

And what's that supposed to mean?

[Inquisitive frowning usually saved for Navi has begun.]

Who knows~

[ You sure are helping him to get into a better mood, Mabe-chan. But the frown won't help you getting any answer. ]

Whatever.

[Another slog.]

Where'd you find the actually good stuff? This place ain't exactly pleasing to the palette.

There's a liquor store in town, didn't you know? Though they're not that good either. I just mix and match and see what I get. [ As he's done a lot with food. ]
