[When the broadcast begins, the young man onscreen (sporting a perfect pompadour with not a single strand of hair out of place) tucks away a comb and reclines upon the front step of one of the government houses, presumably the one he's been assigned. He seems to consider for half a second more what he's going to say, one eyebrow cocking upwards, a strong indication that there's a question brewing, while his lips pucker in a vague showing of frustration.]

Alright...

[Here we go.]

So, I'm digging all the free stuff that people seem to wanna hand out in exchange for photographs with us and whatever, and the hoverboards are really, really awesome. That said, I might actually like these new phones even better, though? They're pretty great! Slim, stylish, lightweight...pocket size. Anyway, all that's nice, but something's been bothering me and I've gotta ask...

What the actual fuck is up with these glow-in-the-dark tattoos?

[His jaw sets stubbornly, blue eyes fixating on something that lies out of view of the camera. Probably the tattoo in question.]

I mean I know what they're for, or what we're being told they're for, but like...

Shit, is this even legal?

[Actually, he's a hell of a lot more concerned with the fact that he wasn't even asked if something could be done to his body, especially as he can't fix it. Talk about invasive. Makes a guy wonder what else was done without his knowing.]

And on that note...I'm kind of curious about this whole registration deal! Anyone got a solid argument for it or against it? 'Cause right now I'm right in the middle and uh...from what I hear, that means my roommates can put me out?

What kind of asshole would do that, though?

Anyway, that's it. That's all I gotta say!

[He reaches forward as if to turn the device off but stops.]

Oh, and the name's Josuke! [Best to get it out now so he's not repeating it a hundred times later.] Josuke Higashikata!

[Click!]

A waiter?

[...maybe that means he can get Josuke free meals sometimes?]

I got stuck with hosting parties. Fancy parties. What about you?

[standsproud]

I'm supposed to work at the aquarium or something annoying like that.

[unbreaker]

Annoying? I thought you were into that kinda thing, though?

[unbreaker]

And what do you mean 'supposed to'? Haven't you ever gone?

[standsproud]

It's different when I'm being told to do it by the government. Then it's just annoying.

No I haven't.

[unbreaker]

Oh, yeah...I guess that makes sense.

...so what do you do then? To get by, I mean?

[standsproud]

...stuff. I help out.

[unbreaker]

Okay, so, touchy subject.

[He's sorry he asked.]

[standsproud]

No, just not interesting.

[unbreaker]

[Way to decide that for him, Jotaro.]

Right. Whatever, you don't gotta say.

Actually, I'd rather talk about something [someone] else when you've got the time.

[Obviously not here like this or he'd just spit it out.]

[standsproud]

...yeah, sure. Come by whenever.

wanna log it?

[unbreaker]

How's this weekend?

sure!

[standsproud]

Fine. That's no problem.

Log's up!

[unbreaker]

Alright, I'll see you then!
