01; Video... sort of.

[The video feed starts with the face of a young man looking... very confused at the phone in front of him. Squinting, almost. Soon followed by a...]

HELLO?

[...He is literally yelling into the communicator, and pressing it to his cheek. Entirely unnecessary, since this is a video post... But whatever. Say hello to Joseph's cheek, fellow users of the Network. This is all you get for the rest of the video.]

There's no receiver end on this thing, how am I supposed to know where to talk into! Or who I'm talking to?

[Yeah. You're getting one of these guys again. Sorry. He's from 1938. This has been a rough journey for the technologically inept.]

Whatever! I have to go back- it's really important. I'm going to be done for in six days if I don't get to Switzerland! It's a really long story but I don't have time for another adventure, I'm already in the middle of one right now. I don't want to hear any of those excuses I've already been told! I'm being really serious here! I should have memorized Lisa Lisa's phone number...

It's a mask.

And it's not ugly!

[Video]

[trickstar]

It's really gross! Your mouth looks like it's inside out!!

[Video]

[bullysandwicher]

Don't be blasphemous! Beelzebub does amazing mask, and it's not gross!!

[Video]

[trickstar]

["Beelzebub"? "Blasphemous"? Which would imply she's using the name in a positive religious light...]

I don't know who Beelzebub is, but he's the worst artist I've ever seen if that's what his work looks like!

[Of course, he does know, but he's also trying to piss her off.]

It's not my fault you have crappy tastes and can't appreciate a good mask.

[Video]

[trickstar]

Who are you saying has crappy taste? Because I'm not the one going around wearing something stupid on my face.

[Yet...]

[Video]

[bullysandwicher]

It's because you say it's stupid that I say you have crappy taste!.

[Video]

[trickstar]

Except that someone with already crappy taste would think something that wasn't good, was! So really, you've only proven your own taste is bad!

[Meanwhile, he wears fingerless gloves with belly shirts. He literally cannot judge.]

[Video]

[bullysandwicher]

But someone with crappy taste would also think something that was good, wasn't! So that way, you also proven your own taste is bad, too!

[ RIGHT BACK AT U, BRO ]

[trickstar]

Ha ha ha ha! Yeah, my taste in clothes really does suck too! As long as we both know we have bad taste, I think I can accept that.

[Video]

[bullysandwicher]

[ nod nod ]

So we are even.

I'm Noi, by the way!

[Video]

[trickstar]

I'm Joseph Joestar. It's nice to meet you, Noi! Even if I think you're as ugly as a horse!

[Video]

[bullysandwicher]

Gee, you really are going about the mask.

[ Noi moves her hand behind her head to unzip her mask, and finally pulls it off, allowing her long white hair to fall down. ] Better?

[!!!]

[trickstar]

Woah!! ...You're really hot!!

Why would you wear that mask this whole time?!

[Video]

[bullysandwicher]

The mask gives Magic Users power and concentrates it. Though, I don't think it works here.

But it's also a sort of identity. There is no other magic user with a mask like mine.

[Video]

[trickstar]

I had a mask that was helping me concentrate my powers too. Coincidence, huh!

["QUICK, FIND ANY SIMILARITIES WITH YOU AND A CUTE GIRL" - jojos mind]

What kind of magic can you do?

[Video]

[bullysandwicher]

Really? What are your powers?

[ Noi will never notice someone hitting on her nope ]

Healing and regenerative magic. I can heal and regenerate any living or once living animal cell!

[Video]

[trickstar]

Ever heard of Hamon before?

[oh noi.......]

Woah, really?? That's pretty impressive! Maybe if I really do die of this poison, you could revive me!

[Nevermind that he screamed about never dying to poison like 5 mins ago.]

[Video]

[bullysandwicher]

No, never.

I can't revive you, just restore you, but -[ head tilt ] You were poisoned?

[Video]

[trickstar]

Well, it's pretty uncommon! It's the power of the sun.

You can't? Man, I really need some kind of answer besides what Dio's offering... Yeah, I was poisoned.

[Video]

[bullysandwicher]

Power of the sun? How does that work?

I can heal, not bring people back to life. But even if you die here, you are brought back to life, so it's not all terrible. [ yes, it is noi ] Who poisoned you?

[Video]

[trickstar]

Through breathing a certain way, if you have the right body for it.

Don't act like that!! Did the people who kidnapped us tell you that? Have you actually seen it happen, or do you just blindly believe them?? There is no escaping death without serious loss!

An ancient man called Wham, and another called Esidisi.

[Video]

[bullysandwicher]

That doesn't explain anything. What does it do?

It's a rumor at least.I'm not about to try it myself. [ of course not ] But there was revival magic in my world, so I wouldn't be so surprised it exists in this one, too.

Anyway, what did you do to them? [ Noi moves to reach for something off the camera. Which is a donut. Yes, she is eating while she talks. ]
