[no lawns in space? HERESY]

[near mirroring you with looking around, to confirm that this is actually my house and we haven't both been dumped somewhere new]

...yeah. Yeah, it is.

[worried frown at you, why the hell are you here]

Are you all right?

[blueondeck]

[It's to spite you.]

Confused.

[It was the most accurate answer for the moment, coming to grips this is no longer his bed in The Pirate House.]

[yellowlion]

[I'll blame Yuusuke]

That makes two of us. Not that I'm not happy to see you, but what the hell?

[quite matter of fact, not angry, just looking around waiting for some kind of attack]

[blueondeck]

I can't say I'm not use to being randomly thrown in beds I didn't fall asleep by the sadistic desires of a higher power with a bad sense of humor, but I wasn't expecting to wake up ... here.

[yawning a little and finally looking up at you]

[yellowlion]

[this would be a sympathetic grin]

You do lead an interesting life.

[bouncing out of bed to check the window, under the bed, the door, can't find anything suspicious]

[blueondeck]

[Sitting up and watching you check around]

It's not by choice, I can assure you.

[And then upon a little further thought]

Maybe it's actually a punishment. [Like in school when they call your parents to pick you up because your being insufferable.]

[yellowlion]

[okay, can't see anything, I'll plonk myself back down on the bed next to you]

[...under the covers again, though I'm sitting, and obviously I'm not going to do anything with you like *that*, but it's cold]

[blinks]

It's punishment to end up in bed with me?

[blueondeck]

[You are embarrassing me]

Like when parents are called to handle a bratty child.

[yellowlion]

[dads do that]

[sudden laugh]

Ah. I see. What've you been doing, Joe?

[blueondeck]

Not much. Unintentionally befriending the worse possible person I could. "Befriending" is a strong word, maybe more "tolerating more than I should be".

[yellowlion]

[frowns]

What do you mean? Aren't you still fighting Zangyack?

[blueondeck]

Kind of, with a small forced break between it. We nearly have all of the powers, but ...

[Kind of looking away now. This is hard to admit]

The man known as Basco, I've talked to him a lot lately.

[yellowlion]

...

Really.

He went after friends of mine.

[blueondeck]

[I can't even be surprised]

He did? Who ... why?

[Still not exactly surprised, more aggravated that he's still a douchebag.]

[yellowlion]

For their grand powers. Maskman. A couple others.

[shakes head, to bring self back]

So I can see why you're having difficulties. Tell me what's happening?

[blueondeck]

With what's been happening now, We've somehow ended up with Basco's memories only being before he betrayed Marvelous. At first I was watching for safety purposes.

[yellowlion]

Oh. Oh, that's big.

You're trying to reach him?

[blueondeck]

Marvelous would rather he was dead. Point blank. I don't blame him.

[yellowlion]

I can understand that perspective.

You don't agree?

[blueondeck]

In his memories, he hasn't betrayed Marvelous yet. He gets more annoyed at Marvelous' hate of him than anything else.

[yellowlion]

[exhales]

Maybe you can save him.

[blueondeck]

... Do you really think something like that is possible?

[yellowlion]

[lifts a shoulder, lets it drop]

Time theory says no. Basco has to do what he's done to my friends. To other teams. To you.

[pause, because I am quite, quite sure he's hurt you at various times]

But it sounds like where you are tosses time theory out the window. And if there's any chance...

[blueondeck]

In that place you can receive memories of what happens in your future. A way of moving forward or something. Eventually he'll become that person. It wont matter what I do.

[sighs slowly] He will become that person, and I will hate him again.

[yellowlion]

[hand on your shoulder, worried about you]

Sounds like you have a bizarre variation of our problem.

And Joe. What you do always matters.
