[suddenly, everyone's D-Comms are met with a VERY LOUD NOISE]

ATTENTION, DIGITAL WORLD.

I AM CAPTAIN MARVELOUS, LEADER OF THE PIRATE SENTAI GOKAIGER.

WE ARE HERE IN SEARCH OF YOUR TREASURE. PLEASE, FEEL FREE TO OFFER UP VALUABLES, MONEY, AND THE LOCATIONS OF ANCIENT HIDDEN ARTIFACTS AT YOUR LEISURE. IT WILL SAVE YOU AND US TIME IN THE FUTURE.

Marvelous, that didn't work the first time, what makes you think it'll work THIS time?! And without the others to back you up, even!

Shut up, Bird!

She's right, man! GEEZ, do you have to hold that damn Megaphone to the receiver, INSIDE THE SHIP?! I think my head's gonna be ringing for a week!

...I'm surrounded by poultry.

[ooc - Normal text = Marvelous.
Italics = Navi, his robotic parrot.
Bold = Machalcon, a car mecha-turned-Digimon, and Marv's partner.]

Hrn.

Yeah, well. Okay. Guess you've gotta good point, there.

You sure are friendly for potential competition.

Not used to that.

[sunsetsandwomen]

Competition? Perhaps.

But that's no reason to be rude. It's a lonely world if you don't have friends.

Besides, I'm rather bored being one of only two ships in the sky, of late.

[gokai_red]

Yeah, just sort of used to other people that wanna act like pirates...

...

Well, I guess that was just one guy... Hmph. Not worth worrying about anymore.

Yeah, you're right. The universe is a pretty lonely place without friends.

I'll keep what you said in mind, and look into this Vikemon guy.

[sunsetsandwomen]

There's no acting here, Captain. At least not on my end. Every member of my crew has at least a four digit bounty on their heads, minus our newbies that we picked up in port.

Sadly, a little bit of heroism goes a long way and they've yet to earn their real reputations yet. Still, they're good at what they do.

How's your crew, if you don't mind me asking? Good spirits? Good bounties?

[gokai_red]

Heh, only four digits? Guess they've got a bit of work to do yet.

Honestly, only got a bit of my crew yet. Knowing those guys, I'm sure others'll show up soon.

Bounties are pretty good. Mine was what they called an "Unlimited Reward," at least, that's what it was before we sort of demolished the entire ruling party and a good portion of the issuing Empire's fleet. They're not in much a position of issuing crap now.

[sunsetsandwomen]

Watch it, Marvelous. That's counting my cook and sailors. Not one of the souls on my boat is the sort to shy away from the sort of work we do.

I'd list mine, but it's been climbing significantly ever since I busted out of the great fortress. I can hardly keep track if it any more.

[gokai_red]

Hey, mine could've been the whole universe if someone succeeded and asked.

They didn't, and now those people can't pay up, so hey. Guess I gotta work back up, eh?

[gokai_red]

...oh, right. Almost forgot.

Since you're bein' so helpful, you wanna tell me why a giant race car turned into a pint sized bird thing?

Oh, NOW you're concerned about that.

Priorities.

[sunsetsandwomen]

Ah, so you're one of the sots who has a trusted companion turn into their partner.

Congratulations are in order, then. You've got more of the trust you'll need to survive here.

He's your new partner. Everyone who comes into this world is partnered with someone. In most cases, it's one of the natives. But sometimes, the god of this place make concessions and keeps an intact bond.

He's a digimon now. He'll fight at your side, and your bond will make him stronger. You should have a couple of new toys to go with your stuff, there's a primer on the digital world included in them.

Suffice it to say? You fight with your partner, you stay strong. You fight solo?

Someone eats you and doesn't bother collecting the bounty.

[gokai_red]

No problems there. Machalcon wouldn't have been made apart of the crew in the first place if he didn't have anything to offer.

If I can just get him to stop whining.

BUT I MISS MY WHEELS.

SUCK IT UP.
