Oh I knew these posts would take a while but just writing the fight scenes took three and a half hours, the whole post took four.

"Depends are we heading to bar? I've got to blank out the crazy before it infects me." The two of you start walking down the street.
Will smirks "Sorry no can do, you can drink but rangers getting drunk on Earth, or most planets really is a bad idea, though you'll be given a chance to get drunk every so often when Carlos comes back to earth every so often."
"Why can't rangers get drunk on earth?"
"Because alcohol doesn't react well to the power, a drinking night with rangers usually results in non-sexual nudity and people getting into the fights, usually the two don't overlap though."
"Well that sounds insane."
"It usually is, but don't worry you get used to it, I've been told," you find a deserted alley for you to demorph in. "So what's your name kid."
"Sean Cooper." The two of you walk off somewhere, Will's leading.
"Well Sean, you are the new black ranger who will protect the earth right?"
"Yes."
"Well there are things that you need to know about being the black ranger."
"Such as?"
"First off," Will said, "never let Zack buy the alcohol." He followed Will up, "Never let Danny play truth or dare, don't ask Carlos about his love life, and no matter what do not ask Tommy about his time as the evil green ranger. Adam's the normal one, but don't let him drink Cuervo. He can handle some of the more expensive tequilas, but Cuervo is just mean to him."
"I have no idea who almost any of those people are, I presume Carlos is the space ranger."
"Yes, you'll meet all of them later, and proably most of the reds whenever we blacks can get ahold of the megaship to go drinking. So Sean what's your art?"
"Art?"
"You know the thing you can do that others know you for and would call an art?"
"Well I play the guitar, would that count."
Yes, now the main thing is you need to make sure that your known as a musician."
"Why? shouldn't I have my own identity."
"Well yes, but you can't stand out, you need to be the one everyone underestimates."
"Again, I ask why?"
"Because otherwise your role will be pointless, and before you ask the roll is that of the leader, when your red's not around or is acting up anyway, but otherwise you need to succeed by luck, or make it look like you do anyway."
Reaction?

I take no credit for the idea of the black rangers being this way, or some of the dialogue here, both of which are from
