Do you have any headcanons for the MMPR team?
The biggest thing here is that in shows pre-gay marraige, it was REALLY standard to queercode. I don't know if you've ever seen Xena: Warrior Princess, but it's a chaotic, insane love story between two women...that never once has either one say they're in love. And frequently has the femme girl marry or date a guy, and tossed in a 'comic relief' male character SOLELY to 'prove' it was straight (and make the audience homicidal).
Really, half my generation complaining about saying 'unalive' is just that it's so *unsubtle*. We put DRAMA into OUR anti-censorship coding...and walked uphill to school both ways in the snow...
So if you go look at MMPR with that understanding?
This is a queer polycule with power exchange kinks. Mininum. And I don't know if it was on purpose, but if you want gender or power relationship primers, go watch Power Rangers in the Saban era. (Disney killed an impressive amount of it until RPM. After that it's very hit-and-miss.)
It's not official canon, but the entire season of Time Force places the insanely butch Jen in the role of heroic vengeance on the lines of a Viking saga husband; the difference between domanatrix Astronema and the innocent Karone is a huge emotional driver in Space...
And MMPR really only worked because the team is in love. Romantic? Platonic? Agape? Yes and more. We can read The Letter arc not as a real breakup, but as Tommy, Kim, and Kat playing at being 'normal' to outsiders so Kat could join them. Jason is a young bear, and his donning of biker leather is a completion of his nature. Billy and Trini intertwine themselves, and they move power between each other so fluidly that when Trini leaves, Billy has to almost reinvent himself--but he has no sexuality with her (or other girls, and Yost is a damn saint to not tell Saban to fuck themselves on a daily basis).
So...not headcanon. But not canon. Just the reading of someone a bit older, who learned a different kind of doublespeak. Saying 'unalive' was always clever to me--it was worrying only when no one stopped.
