*I’ve been wondering, when Johnny took Jesus’s corpse to Japan, did the Devil’s Palms in America disappear or did they stay? I’d assume they stayed because that would explain how the current Joestars in Part 9 and their pals have Stands*

[I always assumed that with Part 9, Stands are back to being biological. Maybe some characters got them from the Devil Palms but I mainly just thought for Dragona and Jodio is particular that they developed their Stands naturally. That's probably crazily incorrect but I don't think we've gotten an explanation yet.

Also yeah the Devil Palms defo stayed.] 

Ricardo drops Lloyd off at a nearby bar, leaving him there with a little bit of money to still be able to leave, telling him to use that money to build a stable life for himself, or don't Ricardo doesn't really care, he just wants Lloyd out of his life forever(Which is going to be ironic very soon). Nearby in the same bar sits a dark skinned man in breastplate armor, with an above average muscular build, a sword and revolver at his side along with a shield at his back. He taps the counter, which is scarier than it should be "Hello Lloyd, I didn't expect to see you here." He says in a deep voice, tinged with venom and disappointment, and a little bit of false sadness.

[Dunno what to do rn, kinda just waiting on Jobah's enemy stand user. Or I could spring one on the party now instead to give Jobah a break since he ran Lloyd? Whatever you guys think is best.

Also I realised that an AU Ringo Roadagain with Mandom could work quite well for this since 6 seconds is exactly a round of combat.]

 *We have to wait next part for that. Also 6 seconds is one turn*

[Good point. Also a turn and a round are the same length for some reason, like all turns are meant to happen simultaneously or something, but a round is 6 seconds, no matter the party size]

*I’m waiting for Jester to respond to my PM question about this guy before I proceed. Also, I need to run Myoga while we’re still in Japan so if you’re cool with it maybe you could take over control of Lloyd?*

*I mean it’s a good number given the way our time system works*

*Jobah I did reply. I'm pretty sure I did at least.*

 Lloyd curses under his breath at the bar, expecting to just waste the cash Ricardo gave him on booze, when a familiar face sits down next to him. He tries to hide his fear and says with a nervous chuckle 'Well I could say the same to you!' His mouth is dry and he suddenly wants to be back outside, though he doesn't want to run into that crew again. 'What...what brings you here?'

 He smiles, his teeth sharp and yellow *Because who would have perfect hygiene in this time period?* "Oh, I was just passing through like I usually do, I assume you don't have my cut of your wares like you're supposed to?" He takes his sword out of its sheath and places his on the counter, the blade has a bit of blood and rust on it, his crew all around the bar "How unfortunate. You know the consciences for that, Lloyd."

*Anyone?*

Quote from TheTrueJester2 >>

*Anyone?*

 [Sorry I was having dinner]

Lloyd gulps and he says 'There's...umm...there's a crew in this town, and I tried to raid them, but their psycho boatswain sunk my boat and everything in it! I don't have nothing to give ya but please don't hurt me, it ain't my fault!' He gulps and says 'They're Stand Users, the lot of them, and their captain is a some happy-go-lucky kid called Joestar. Jollini Joestar.' He swallows again, trying to make this information worth Niverde's while. 'They're looking for Whitesnake's Treasure, and my Beetles picked up on their conversation.' He doesn't want to disrespect such a fearsome pirate, but mutters 'They've got a great plan, a brilliant one even. I don't know what it is about 'em, but they've got the potential to find it y'know?' He suddenly stops as he realises he said too much and might have just upset the man, big time.

He suddenly stops as he realises he said too much and might have just upset the man, big time.

 Niverde laughs, the tension of the situation washing away as he wraps his arm around Lloyd's shoulder, his arm warm and the gesture calming "That's some good information you got me Lloyd. You say they have a Joestar? Interesting." He places the sword back in his sheath and pats Lloyd on the shoulder "I might just have to see this new crew for myself, while they're are still in town of course." He gets up from the counter and begins walking to the door to the bar "You know with all this information, I almost wanted to let you go, but that just wouldn't do now would it? If I let you go I'll have to let everyone go now wouldn't I?" He gestures to the rest of his crew, them all standing up and brandishing their weapon "Kill him, and make it hurt." He walks out of the bar as the crew closes in.

Lloyd tries to ease back into the conversation, but he's still on edge. He listens to Niverde speak, and is surprised when they mention the Joestar name. So that kid was actually a somebody? He nearly relaxes when Niverde goes to leave, but then comes his final sentence. Lloyd screams and leaps from his seat, but it's too late. Something fastens round his ankle, and he's dragged backwards into the shadows of the inn, dangling by one leg. He sees the blurry shape of a Stand, but before he can summon the Beetles, he feels his windpipe twist itself around his own neck and fasten, choking him on his own organs, and then he's dropped to the floor. A Japanese man steps forward; his face is slim with his hair is peaked up into a rough triangle shape, and he wears a jacket decorated with knots and rope, along with anchor shaped earrings dangle of his earlobes. He simply mutters 'Katamusubi, tie his spine into a pretzel.' Niverde hasn't even left the building when he hears the sickening crack, Lloyd's corpse left horribly disfigured on the ground.

[Sorry I couldn't resist, the idea for a perfect Stand struck me and I just had to jump on the opportunity! I'll post about it later]

*yoooo, I never thought about using Vocaloid music for Stand names! That's awesome! But now we HAVE to make a Brando Stando called The World is Mine*

*Nice job Shiver.*

[Ayy, thanks man, I've been wanting to use a tonne of Vocaloid songs for Stands since some of them are so sick, like Loop Spinner, Hello Builder, HERO, Young Girl A, Lost Umbrella etc. But yeah we NEED a child of Dio with World is Mine, though at this rate we're gonna end up with like 20 Brando children lmao

Also, I got a really cool idea of how I'll kill off Dio, I'll type it up along with Katamusubi's description later!]
