Conner sprawled out on the couch, scowling at his cell phone as if he expected to be able to intimidate it into ringing. He still hadn't seen or heard back from Lana, which was starting to worry him; trying to convince himself that he was being paranoid was kind of difficult.

In an attempt to distract himself from worrying into a panic, he turned on the TV and started flipping through channels until -- wait, what?!? "No freaking way, he muttered, and turned the volume up just in time to hear . . .

"Coming up right after this, don't miss the hourlong world premiere of Relic Hunters Adventure Squad, the brand new series based on the true adventures of the Overdrive Power Rangers!"

"Hi there, what, excuse me?!?" sputtered Conner, sitting bolt upright and staring at the TV. "Overdrive, what? Who are these guys?" From the tone of his voice, you'd think he thought they were imposters or something.

"Yeah, he was going to be camping out right here for the next hour and a half, because this he had to see.

[OOC: Yes, Power Rangers Operation Overdrive premieres tonight, so I just couldn't help myself. Relic Hunters Adventure Squad is gonna be the meta for both OO and Boukenger; thanks to

blessed_twice and

untouchableskin for helping me come up with meta character names. The top thread is for certain people who know who they are, but otherwise wide open, as common rooms are!]

"That it did." Tori nodded.

She also stared at the television. "Dude, low blow. How do they do that?" Tori was bewildered beyond belief.

"He just wishes he was me," Conner grumbled. "Aww, Lily's a tech geek. It's like, if Willow was a Power Ranger!"

"That he does." Tori smiled reassuringly. She then laughed. "Oh wow, it is!"

"Yeah, and genetic resequencing? At least I got a cool piece of jewelry out of that experience," Conner added. "They just get to stand in a shimmery force field for a little while. But dude. Those uniforms are kinda sweet."

"I wonder... will they always have their abilities since the resquencing?" That was something to think about. "You did, that's true. It's a very nice bracelet." Tori nodded, with a small smile. She studied the uniforms. "They are pretty cool looking. I wouldn't mind having one."

"Me neither," Conner said enviously. "I didn't have to wear one, but wow, if I could have one like that? I'd totally wear it. Ooooh, their weapons are cool."

"I did, but you knew that all ready." Tori replied. She actually had it here with her, underneath her bed. "Me too. Oh, I like the pink ranger's weapon." No one could go wrong with a water weapon.

"You would," Conner snickered. "Dude, if my Tyrannostaff had a cool blade like that, I'd . . . I don't know what I would've done. And . . ."

He watched O'Reilly pull off a really sick crashing move with his lance. "Aw, man. I never got any super sweet moves like that."

Tori stuck her tongue out at Conner. Why yes, she was being mature. "Oh, if Shane saw that, I think he might be a bit jealous."

Tori raised an eyebrow. "The yellow ranger has drive claws?" They just looked... funny. They might be useful but, it was just weird.

"Yeah, well." Conner shrugged. "Didn't you have, like, a megaphone?"

"It was called a sonic fin." Tori nodded. "But it was pretty much a megaphone, yeah."

"My point exactly -- see, they might look goofy, but check her out digging a hole in solid rock!"

"Yeah, it's actually pretty cool how they can do that." Tori admitted, with a smile.

"Goofy but useful." Conner nodded in satisfaction. "That's pretty much perfectly in Ranger tradition."

Tori also nodded, in agreement. "So, it seems."

"Well, it's good to know I may not have to be ashamed of these guys. Whoever the real ones are."

"Always, always a good thing." Tori smirked. She suddenly gaped at the television. "Okay, since when can Kahn ninja streak? Because that's what it looks like he's doing..." Yeah, she knew he was jumping but that's what it entailed.

[OOC: Okay, if I added that part, to show where we are in the episode? If not, I can erase it.]

"Yeah, but not quite as cool as yours," Conner replied. "He's got this . . . bouncy orange tiger sort of vibe going for him."

[OOC: Totally, totally fine!]

"Definitely not. I totally win." Tori agreed, with a smirk. "Yeah, he does. I mean, it's a neat power."

[OOC: And I guess I'm off to post Tori's return from alien napping!! Whee!]

"It totally is. And I think I'm jealous that they get cooler enemies. Check out those ice guys, they're cooler than Triptoids any day. Even though I think the lizards are, like, Tyrannodrones' second cousins or something," Conner said. "I wonder what kind of power O'Reilly's gonna get?"

[OOC: Woo! Want me to have Conner happen upon her?]

"I'm joining you in that jealously. They are way cooler than kelzacks." Tori shook her head in disbelief. "I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they are related somehow." She admitted. "Hrm, I guess we'll have to wait and see." She really didn't have any idea.

[OOC: Sure!!]
