I do not own Super Sentai, it is owned by badai, Toei, and TV Tokyo.


It was after sundown when Joe emerged from his quarters, the faint glow of a city's lights glittered beneath the ship's window. A loud crash tore him from the view, his feet hardly making any noise beneath him as he waltzed into the sitting area. There sat Marvelous, red faced with his hands occupied by a glass of gin. "Heyyyy Joe!" The Captain slurred and attempted to stand only unable to find his footing he stumbled a bit. Was he drunk? Joe wondered, his eyebrows knitted a face of wonder which was answered when Marvelous tried to speak only to giggle in his own confusion. Oh yeah he was defiantly drunk. " 'come 'ere Joe, Come and 'ave some." Joe wasn't much of a drinker which was an odd thing considering military men were know for but he didn't want to leave Marvelous to hurt himself in his drunken state. Navi whistled a tune on his perch like any old day clearly, this much have been a regular occurrence. "Alright." Joe agreed slowly and took a seat next to Marvelous, pouring himself a small helping of the alcoholic beverage. Marvelous mumbled some things to Joe which didn't make close to a lick of sense but he would nod and smile. The red clad man's brown eyes watched him with an odd sort of look and Joe knew it's meaning- he hadn't taken one sip of his drink since he sat down close to thirty minutes ago. " Eh Joe, whatcha think of it?" He meant the drink, of course so in order to be a good guest to the Captain's pity party he took a small swig, coughing after in went down his throat. It was cheap whisky, watery without a touch of humor to it but he smiled when Marvelous patted him on the back. "There you go." He chuckled, sipping his own glass (which was empty but Joe didn't tell him. He didn't want him anymore intoxicated than he already was) ans sighed, picking up the bottle. "Didja know that Basco gave me this?"

Basco?

Right, Basco ta Jolokia the rogue pirate. Former partner of Captain Marvelous and AkaRed. He knew of him, never had Joe met him. That was Sid's squad's assigned target. He shook off Sid and managed to down the rest of the whisky which wasn't any better the second time down but he didn't cough as much this time. "He stole it frommmm..." Marvelous trailed off, his eyes lidded and Joe almost thought the man had fallen asleep but by the way he was leaning over the table, arm planted and hand still grasping the glass with a firm grip that was not the case. "It's not that good but he seem ta like it." Clearly the story wasn't important enough to talk about as he'd skipped all of it. "Now that guy was a total asshole. Yep. He deserves to be hung up and shot at range." He looked a little teary eyed when his eyes opened again with a face contorted like a snarling gargoyle. "Breaking promises and breaking hearts." Joe frowned. Basco must have meant a lot to him. Marvelous rolled up the while cuffs of his dress shirt seemed to notice that his cup was empty this time. "Ehhh Joe couldya do a guy a favor and pour another round." Joe bit his lip and hopped Marvelous as drunk as he seemed. "The bottle's done." Marvelous' nose scrunched up, leaning back in his chair with a frown. "Then get another!" Joe shook his head. "I think it'd be best to get some shut-eye, don't you?" Marvelous scoffed when Joe helped him to his feet. "Naw I'm fine." He tried to convince him despite relying on Joe entirely for support. When they arrived in Marvelous' quarters Joe eased him down to his bed. The Captain was asleep before he hit the sheets.
