Brainstorming

[J. T./Jessica]

Not gonna ask what I'm planning?

[Enigma!]

Sigh. "What are you planning, J.T.?"

[J. T./Jessica]

"Literati Powers gone, yes.... But that doesn't mean I'm Power-less: It's Morphin' Time: DRAGONZORD!"
(Also a further explanation of why Dragonzord responds to J.T.... And don't worry, as far as I know he only uses the Green Power Coin this one time.)

[Enigma!]

I kinda figured. J.T.'s getting kinda over-Powered if you ask me (But I find that to be the problem with most of the Leading Rangers...)

[J. T./Jessica]

Eh...
Technically, ALL of us are over-powered...

[Enigma!]

You moreso than the rest of us.

[J. T./Jessica]

Well, the Dragon Coin is a one-time thing, basically it had just enough power left in it for one morph, the rest had been drained out by the Green Candle when it was draining Tommy's coin's power.

Brainstorming for PRL ## - "Gone Clerkin'"

Dante - J.T.
Randal - Amanda
Veronica - Starr (you'll get it later...)
Caitlyn - Jessica (What? I'm a Dante/Caitlyn fan.)
Jay - John
Silent Bob - Will

Let's see....

There's a scene where J.T. can't find the ladder to adjust the thermostat, so he climbs the shelves, falls, mutters "Does anybody know how to use the Force?"
Amanda comes over, "I'm going to kill you." and drags him off while he's singing "Show me the way to go home, I'm tired and I wanna go to bed, I fell down bout a minute ago and I think I broke my head..."

Then there's the infamous (and long awaited) scene with Amanda (Wiccan Clerk) and Overly-Religious Church-Bigot Lady.

J.T. and Amanda end up being the only ones available to battle the Puckmaster (hockey-based monster) and J.T. steps on a church.
"You stepped on a church."
"Oh, like I'm not already going to hell?"
"You probably knocked over the casket."

[J. T./Jessica]

"What? What do you mean Justin can't make it? Get Yolanda. I just closed last night, Z... Two. I swear to God and the Power Grid that if you're not there by two you're dead."

[J. T./Jessica]

Let's see... Switch the Gum Rep's anti-smoking campaign with Amanda vs. OVCB Lady...Probably have to move Amanda/Randal's arrival up some...

John and Silent Will (heh) show up with assorted others for a D&D session.

J.T.: Sometimes, I really hate all the trouble that comes with working here...

Customer: HEY, It's not like it's a demanding job.I'd like to get paid to sit on my ass and watch TV. The other day I walked in here and the kid behind the counter was sleeping.

J.T.: I'm sure they weren't sleeping.

Customer: You calling me a liar?

J.T.: No; they was probably just resting their eyes. (Yes, because you are, arse.)

Customer: What the hell is that? Resting their eyes! It's not like you're the damn Power Rangers! THEY actually do something for this city.

J.T.: Actually, we are. This is just what we do when we're not saving the city.

Customer: Smart-ass, you'll never be anything but a clerk with that attitude. (Slams down his purchases on the counter.) I'm a member, number's sixteen-eighty-two, name's Schmidtburg, and make it quick!

(Customre makes purchase and walks out, leaving his card on the counter.)

J.T.: Not anymore, you're not, cochon. (Cuts up card and drops remains in the trash.

Amanda walks in, twenty minutes late, Suichi-"Just got laid"-Look on her face. - this takes place some time AFTER the previous 'quoted' scene...

J.T.: "You're late."

Amanda: "Thought I was working with Justin today."

J.T.: "Called out. I got called in."

Amanda: "That sucks."

J.T.: "Some guy just came in refusing to pay late fees. He said the store was closed for two hours yesterday - Two hours that we were fighting monsters, I should note since there's no humans in the store. I tore up his membership."

Amanda: "Shocking abuse of authority."

J.T.: "I'm a firm believer in the philosophy of a ruling class, especially since I rule. And I've got the Evil Overlord List to prove it, too."

Customer: "Is this any good?"
J.T.: "I don't know, I don't watch movies."
Customer: "You work in a movie store!"
J.T.: "That doesn't mean I get to watch movies - and technically this is a media store, not a movie store."
Customer: "Taking an attitude with the customers! I am NEVER shopping here again!"
Amanda: "That's fine with us, ma'am."

Of course, there's GOTTA be scenes with "Do you have anything new in?" and "Do you have that movie with that guy who was in that movie that came out last year?"...

"By the way, Jessica, you do anything that'll break his heart again and I'll have to kill you."

Jessica looked at Amanda for a moment, "You're being protective of him? Of the guy that owns more weapons than the Scenic City Police Department? Have I stepped into the Twilight Zone?"

"Territoriality. He was mine first."

Jessica stared again, then finally responded the way she thought J.T. would, "Aw, the big sister act is so CUTE, Amanda."

"I hate you both."

Fight scene involving Black Ranger and Dreamweaver on the roof...?

[J. T./Jessica]

Opinions, anyone?

[Enigma!]

The "Big sister" part was very funny, I thought.

[J. T./Jessica]

Amanda thinks the "Fine with us, Ma'am" line is too polite... Will need to change that in the story.

Things to add:

Batting at decorations

Customers who don't watch their kids

"Vultures"

We need some kind of anti-yaoi protestor outside

Tom Cruise fangirls, SCREAMING Tom Cruise fangirls, along with a line about talking to Z about letting one of his movies in the store.

Someone using a cell phone while checking out.

And of course, someone dumb enough to read the sign and tell us they're gonna shoplift and an angry customer who tries to lean over the counter and intimidate Amanda. (Including a scene where 'Mike' of the SCPD shows up to take custody of the two criminals)

Signs in Highway 2:
"If you plan to shoplift, please let us know. - Thanks."
"No unattended children."
"'Anything else?' includes coupons. No coupons will be accepted after total is given."

"Nothing, just felt like saying it."

J.T.: "You're late."

Amanda: "Thought I was training the new guy today."

J.T.: "Z changed his mind about starting him today. I got called in."

Amanda: "That sucks."

J.T.: "Some guy just came in refusing to pay late fees. He said the store was closed for two hours yesterday - Two hours that we were fighting monsters, I should note since there's no humans in the store. I tore up his membership."

Amanda: "People like you always say that like it's gonna make us want to bend over backwards for you... For your information, we don't give a damn if you're not shopping here anymore, we don't get paid on commission, we get paid the same if we have one customer or one hundred customers. Have a nice day at whatever store whose clerks you make miserable from now on, Ma'am."

Of course, there's GOTTA be scenes with "Do you have anything new in?" and "Do you have that movie with that guy who was in that movie that came out last year?"...

[J. T./Jessica]

Somewhere I've GOT to get in this line...

"Wonder if anyone else has days like this..."
"Probably. I'd be willing to bet that some poor guys in New Jersey or someplace have to go through this on a daily basis."
