Who:Okuyasu Nijimura and Josuke Higashikata
Broadcast: Open, Video
Action: SS Bloodsport
When: RIGHT NOW!!

[The video starts out with a very… distraught looking japanese school boy, who… actually looks kind of like a punk. Face marks, dollar signs on his chest, the words BILLION and MILLION on his sleeves…

Yeah. He looks like the kid of guy you don't want to meet in a dark alley. But that is all looks- because right now he looks like he's in near tears. To his right is another school boy about the same age as he is, his face only really showing up on the edge of the screen, but the pompadour on his head is taking up a lot of space on the feed above both of them.]]

They have vanilla!

Dude-

They have chocolate!

Hey-

They have spicy chili!

Man, chill-

Where is the strawberry flavor?! How am I supposed to deal with this, every morning, having only chocolate ice cream?! How am I supposed to start off the New Year this miserable??

[OKAY RELAX PAL, the other schoolboy moves closer to grab his shoulders, giving him a few shakes.]

Hey, c'mon! Don't freak! I'm sure they have strawberry somewhere. We'll...we'll just ask, alright? Chill out.

[So...he looks directly into the camera.]

Hey, yo, so...little help on the strawberry front? We can like....work something out, cuz we're new so we don't got any cash or nothin'.

Bobbleheads.

( She demonstrates by tapping her finger on the head of the ostrich. It does what it's meant to do: bobbles. )

I get that, but...

...that's it? They ain't cursed or somethin'? You just don't want them lyin' around?

Cursed? No, no, nothing like that! A former shipmate of mine had a preoccupation with them. I hate to have any go to waste but... they're literally everywhere. I'm all bobbled out.

( Joshua's only legacy right here right now, though she smiles again, a little amused at this ridiculous situation. )

So helping you means you helping me re-home a few of these at the same time. Hey, if you want more than twelve, you're free to have... ( she glances over her shoulder, looking offscreen ) ... as many as you never probably wanted.

Hey, if there's really nothin' wrong with 'em, we'll take as many as you need, alright? It's not like I care.

My friend can take care of them for both of us.

( See, with how things have been talked about, she's some percent sure you both know magic of some sort so its like??? okay sweet. )

In what manner, if you don't mind me asking?

( SWEET SHE'LL BEAM THEM ALL OVER )

[STAND USERS DON'T GIVE AWAY THEIR SECRETS...unfortunately...]

...don't worry about it. He just can.

He's an expert at making problems, uh, disappear.

[Sounding a little like the gangster you look like, Josuke.]

( You're not a dark mage too are you... Okuyasu... and Josuke.................

Ella narrows her eyes... but she wants those bobbleheads gone. It's not like there are things she can't, or won't, talk about. If their magical gifts are among those for them, that's all right. She ends up sounding amused again. )

You realize that sounds vaguely threatening?

Crap, uh, not what I meant.

L-look, you're not a problem or anything, so you're not in danger.

...I mean that we're not a danger to you! Or anyone! We're like, the good guys! And we can do...stuff. But we can't talk about it. It's kind of an unwritten rule.

( She looks a little confused... then outright laughs. Hey, calm down, she's not making accusations. )

Then I can hardly make you talk about that stuff, can I? I'm not part of the unwritten rule club. Anyway, I was only teasing! The bobbleheads are yours to get rid of as you please. You're doing me the bigger favor, after all.

Geez, right, right. Sorry; this is just a lot to take in all at once. I should lighten up.

How are we gonna get 'em though? Do we gotta...dock or something?
