No, thank God...
When I was typing the 'ham sandwich' scene, Jessica made a comment that if I kept on writing scenes like that people were going to start slashing J.T. and Jon ala Cloud/Sephiroth, Ranma/Ryoga, etc. (Seriously, why do people seem to think that two males not getting along is because of repressed sexual attraction, why can't they simply not like each other?), which spawned the 'NOT OTP' scene as a response.

Ah.
As for the slashy... they look hot together? That's my only answer for it.
And Cloud and Seph? Well, you know the song.
Silver and gold, silver and gold...

*Gives Touma... A Look*
Dinae listen to the radio much, do you? 98.1FM has been playing Christmas songs for the last week now.

Touma: While they're on the radio, they don't have to be in the house.
...*stops huming Rudolph and starts huming the Flintstones*

In an uncharacteristic move, Jon looked over at Justin, "Did those dumbasses just...?"
"Yeah."
"Should we...?"
"Yeah."
The Red, Pink and Dark Rangers all sat down on a nearby wall, planning to enjoy the show and stay out of the way of impending devastation.
"Cereal?" ask Jon, pulling a bag of Captain Crunch out of nowhere and taking off his helmet.
Yolanda gaped, "How do you and J.T. DO that?"
"Gift," the Dark Ranger answered, popping a handful of crunchberries in his mouth, "Cereal?"
"...Yeah," Justin shrugged, removing his own headgear.
Jon glanced over at the current melee where J.T., Daniel, Amanda and Jessica were tearing monsters apart literally with their bare hands, and he couldn't resist...
"OH! OH! Curtindolph hits his opponent with the Sweet Chin Music, and it looks like it could be lights out! Just goes to show that you don't insult a demon's mate to his face!"

While I do love these moments, I have to ask.
Is it just me, or is Jon getting oddly friendly with the bunch of us?

At the risk of a redhead's wrath by making a PRL/BTVS comparison, I kinda see Jon as a Spike type sometimes - he wants us dead, but doesn't mind enjoying our company when he's not actively trying to end our lives. (And remember, through season two he becomes more 'freelance' until he fully sides with the team in the season finale - just before everyone dies, ironically enough)...
Plus, he's seen what can happen when J.T. and Daniel are pissed (the David Incident), and knows what can happen when Amanda is, and he's smart enough to know he wants to stay as far out of it as possible. (He's a villian, not an idiot.)
Honestly, I was expecting a comment more about the wrestling thing or the unspecified Hammerspace reference, really...

"What's the worst that could happen? They kill you, save me the trouble, I save the city from Malleus and end up being the public's hero - I don't see a problem here."
"...'How sharper than a serpent's tooth'."
"Scorpion's tooth in my case, remember?"
"Scorpions don't have teeth, they're arachnids."
"Whatever. Reminds me - you still owe me a Spiritzord since YOU RIPPED MINE IN TWO!"
"That was a year ago, ye damn BRAT! Besides, you started the fight in the first place, ye bastard."
"As much as I'd enjoy you two killing each other and saving me the trouble.... SHUT UP AND HELP!"
"And just think," J.T. commented with a smirk, "You actually wanted to go out with her at one time."
"Bite me."
"Can I delegate that to my Zords?"
"Try it and I'll see to it you get the world's worst case of freezerburn."
"Ye need to find yourself a girl, mate."
"John, I am NOT the Will Turner to your Jack Sparrow."
"Or perhaps the reason you're such an arse is you've finally found someone you like in Amanda's place and she won't give you the time of day."
"SHUT UP, MAGNUS!"
"You know, I read somewhere that high blood pressure like that caused by stress can lead to sexual dysfunction, so that could be part of your problem."
"DAMN IT, I SAID 'SHUT UP!'"
"I mean, unless you've decided it's a enuch's life for you..."
"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!"
"FOR SEIJI'S SAKE, MAGNUS, STOP PICKING ON THE ASSHOLE AND MAKE YOURSELF USEFUL!"
(Note: Takes place after Jon acquires the Blizzard Force Dinozords, obviously. Probably around mid-season two.)

First, a bit of background; www.supersentai.com/database/1991_jetman/rg-gai.htmlNow, imagine him being voiced by someone using a Cajun accent (think Gambit)... --- "Well, it be simple, really - Mm-hm, I-a dead and you-a dying." Jon stared for a moment before asking the question that anyone would in his position, "If you're Japanese, why do you have a Cajun accent?" "Dem translators evil when it come to dubbing. Dat beside de point, though."

"Let's be careful," Adam said, looking at the mass of wardrones and hardshells in front of them.
"But let's get it done," J.T. finished, "He doesn't just look like Grandpa, he talks like him too... Unleash that within, Dragon Spirit!"
"Phoenix Spirit!"
"Magick Spirit!"
"Demon Spirit!"
"Warrior Spirit!"
"Siren Spirit!"
"Cybertron!"
Adam Steele looked around at the other heroes, "Just say it already."
"You look like a pair of three-D glasses!" Amanda said, breaking into laughter.
(Short version: Both Tommy Oliver and Adam Steele were played by Jason Frank, hence the 'looks and sounds like him' comment
Long version: The gag, in case anyone was wondering, was that after Power Rangers's success, Saban had planned to release a show called "Cybertron" about a young man named Adam Steele whose father had disappeared after an attack by the villian Grimlord's wardrones, but had left his son in the care of Tao, Adam's martial arts instructor, and left behind the Cybertron - a robotic battlesuit that, once a human's brainwaves were combined with the cybertechnic power of the Cybertron's Cyber Crystal power source, would allow the user {Adam} to become Cybertron to fight Grimlord and his wardrones... and search for the final fate of his father.
In the pilot-and-only episode, Adam Steele was played by Jason David Frank {Also worth noting that the "Go, Green Ranger, Go" theme was the "Cybertron" theme with new lyrics), who would instead go on to play Tommy in Power Rangers when trademark disputes sunk Cybertron {Hasbro owned the trademark on 'Cybertron', being that it was the home planet of the Transformers} and it was instead remade into VR Troopers {and the main character was played by someone else and named Ryan instead of Adam}
Worth noting is that Cybertron was actually closer to it's material sources - the 'Metal Hero' series Metalder - than VR Troopers was to Metalder or Spielban, the second source added when they added the characters of J.B. and Kaitlyn to the mix.)

"You're crazy!"
"As a Time Lord!"
"That's no comfort, Magnus, I WATCH that show!"
"Think of it this way, Danny; At least I don't have a TARDIS! ...Yet!"
"Yet! Yet? You do not need a TARDIS! You're bad enough as it is! No! No TARDIS for you!"
"...I think Amanda just spoke using your mouth."

"An interesting gathering of acquaintances you now have, Zack."
"Man, I'll say. I've never had to deal with people that actually had to sign an agreement not to sneak around and sing Disney songs on each others' dates."
"I'm sorry?"
"It's a long story. It started with J.T. and Jessica singing 'Can You Feel the Love Tonight' from behind the bushes while Amanda was on a date with Daniel, then they got revenge by singing 'Kiss The Girl' while J.T. was out with Jessica, it just got worse from there until they called a truce."
Billy paused for several seconds with his bag over his shoulder before he spoke, "I believe that as long as they refrain from any 'Little Mermaid' jokes, everything will remain copacetic."
"Sure thing, Sebastian," Zack said, then shrugged at his old friend's dirty look, "What can I say? They've rubbed off on me."

"John, I don't know if you realize this, but your shirt is a... how can I put this? It's that lightish-red color, what's it called? Oh, yeah - Pink, your shirt is pink!"
"Peach, not pink."
"Whatever, you're still wearing a shirt in chick colors."
"Do me a favor and die, would ye?"
"Even if I did, I wouldn't be caught dead wearing a pink shirt."
"You know what? I hate you."

"What the hell are you doing here?"
Jon gave a half-shrug, then took another bite of his candy bar, "Bored."
---
"Keep your devil-worshipping ways away from the innocents of this city!"
J.T. and Jon both rolled their eyes as the Black Ranger spoke, "I don't worship the devil - I just play poker with him."
Jon chuckled.
"You may laugh now, sinners, but when you stand before the throne, I doubt God will be laughing."
"He will when he sees your haircut," Jon muttered.
The woman stormed out of the store in a huff, leaving the two opposing Rangers alone.
"Nice one with the haircut comment."
"And people wonder why I'm agnostic," Jon shook his head, "Why would God want anything to do with people like THAT?"
"Would you like that highway two lanes or four?"
"Feh, yeah..."
Several minutes passed before Jon paused in the process of opening another candy bar, "Wait, didn't Amanda already deal with that bigot once?"
"Yeah. She shows up again, I'm calling the cops for trespassing and harassment."
"'Local Store Accuses Christian Citizen of Crimes Based on Religion', sounds like a nice headline."
"'Ey, they want to cause trouble, bring it on - I gotta Spiritzord and it's got BIG feet... and you're gonna have to pay for those."
"Try taking it out of my hide next time we fight."
"I refer you to the words of a little green guy."
(Obviously after 'Gone Clerkin'', since that was when Amanda faced off against Overly-Religious Bigoted Church Lady.)

"You keep this up, you'll die laughing."
"Hey, that's one of my top five ways to die, along with 'killed by the last bullet of the last battle of the last war' and 'heart attack caused by making love to Jessica, preferably at age five-hundred'."
"What's the other two?"
"Oh, 'Insanely overpowered fireballs' and 'White Chocolate Death'."
"...You scare me sometimes."
"Only sometimes?"
"I'm starting to get used to it."
