Brave 2

[juicy_hamburger]

Well, mun, color me surprised that Pink and Blue got sucked in by the new guys. Then again, that doesn't really affect the way I operate. Oh, well. I don't suppose this improves my chances of getting a date with Pink... Still, there are plenty of other women out there.

...

Oh, and about the enemy commanders... They're insane. They're all insane. I'm beginning to think everyone except for me and Green are insane.

I wouldn't count on your sanity sticking around for very long. You're a Ranger. We're all crazy by definition.

[juicy_hamburger]

[Ranger? Is this man a Kyoryuger, too? Ian should probably fill him in on the situation, then.]

No. You don't understand. We fought a monster with fly-swatters for hands. Then, when he was beaten, a woman made entirely out of hearts and some sort of doll-person used a watering can to make it giant.

I don't feel comfortable fighting against a bunch of weirdos.

[courageofawolf]

So I probably shouldn't tell you that everything you just said is actually an entirely normal experience for people in our line of work.

[juicy_hamburger]

No, no... The giant part? I understand that. I've got nor problem with giant monsters. Everything else is just too insane.

[courageofawolf]

Like I said, all of it is normal. Just thank whatever being or non-being you may or may not worship that a pizza monster hasn't tried to bake you into a giant pizza yet. Because that's actually happened.

[juicy_hamburger]

[Well. He guesses that's less weird than a doll-child with socks for arms and wallet coming out of him.]

... Great. Now I'm expecting for that to happen.

[blueondeck]

You'll get use to it, newbie.

[juicy_hamburger]

[Oh. Great. You're one of those space-pirates. Ian's probably going to have to be respectful here.]

I'm not entirely sure I want to get used to this sort of thing. Were your enemies this... odd?

[blueondeck]

[Probably. Escalating into a fight would not be good for you]

Our enemies were smarter and somewhat more effective. Odd still happened a lot though.

[juicy_hamburger]

I have no idea how smart they might be. But, if that Red guy turns out to be our leader...

They'll be geniuses in comparison.

[blueondeck]

In my experiences, the stupid reds are the most effective. You might be lucky to have him.

[juicy_hamburger]

I somehow doubt that.

He doesn't care about keeping his identity secret. What's worse is Pink and Blue have followed his lead.

I'll fight with him, but I'm not letting him or anyone else know who I am when I'm not on-duty.

[blueondeck]

. . . Why would you be keeping your identity a secret?

[juicy_hamburger]

... It's complicated.

[blueondeck]

...

Are you sure you're cut out for our line of work?

[juicy_hamburger]

If I wasn't, I'd have quit a month ago.
