Esme raises an eyebrow and says 'Do I get to keep my hair or, like, nah?' She stares at him for a few seconds, looking as serious as possible, then bursts out laughing and says 'Alright dude, if your Stand is like your own little miniature Baby's First Nuclear Meltdown, then cool, but you can keep that to yourself. I'm just gonna go back to my ping-pong.' And, true to her word, she spins around and continues to ping the ball at the wall, unphased by this stranger's warning of such a deadly Stand.
“Fine by me.” He simply continues watching

She goes for a while longer and then says 'Soooo...If you ain't lying about being able to melt people or whatever, then I bet it must suck to have such a rubbish Stand. Like, you've one the cosmic lottery and got a superpower, and you now get...killing people? Like, that's it. When will you ever get to use that in day to day life? There ain't no fun or utility in that at all, it's just like...' She misses a shot and the ball goes flying off into the shadow of a tree before rolling back through the paddle of the bat, '...a bit dull, innit?'

“I count it more as molecular reconstruction. Think of it like this: What you consider a solid object is just a bunch of tightly packed molecules. My stand can weaken those bonds, causing solids to flow like liquids, and vice versa to an extent. Not too useful for day to day life, but I can do things like turning blood to a solid, which is helpful for paper cuts. Pretty common in my line of work.”

She listens and just nods, saying 'Riiiight...well that's a bit complicated. And yeah, I'm sure whatever job you do your Stand would help. No point working in a fruit farm if you've got a maggot Stand. That just wouldn't do.' She continues to play for a bit but is now getting bored. She sighs and puts the bat straight into her pocket, which should be far too big but just melts right through in a sizzle of smoke. She then muses 'My Stand's pretty cool, but it's simple too. It can just make portals out of anything black. Nothing more, nothing less. Short, sweet and most of all,' she sticks the ball in her pocket, '...simple.' Then she just starts heading off wherever her whims take her.

His left eye twitches “Not that complicated. Solids to liquids and liquids to solids. Not that hard to understand, as long as you have a higher iq than a toddler.” He takes a deep breath “I am calm. I am calm.” He follows after her “Now, who told you about stands?”

She listens and goes 'Pfft, yeah I've got a high IQ! But your Stand ain't simple buddy. You're telling me it weakens all molecular bonds, including ionic? So what, do you just like, put back the electrons, then 'weaken' them? It's all fun and games with just regular pure elements but as soon as you get into compound territory, that's when things get icky. And how much energy exactly is your Stand putting in to break through covalent bonds because trust me, it's better put elsewhere. Same goes for metal and their bonding, which makes me wonder, how does that work? Only thing I can see happening is you ending up with a bunch of delocalised electrons pinging about as plasma, a few metal isotopes and not much liquid, more just, y'know, a mess.' She doesn't elaborate on this further but just murmurs 'Seems a lot more complicated than solids to liquids....Oh, and I learnt about Stands from some guy named Josuno. Didn't elaborate much on who he was other than the fact he didn't have a house.'
[Don't come at me if any of that is wrong, I ain't a chemist and that's just what I can remember from the top of my head late at night. Besides, it fits Esme better if she gets things wrong anyway]

“No. It is quite literally just turning solids into liquids and liquids into solids, by increasing the size of the gaps between molecules. The bonds remain intact, just stretched out further, causing them to act like liquids. If I complete destroyed bonds, I would be making gases. You over complicate simple things.”

“You have a stand that can create portals through anything black, and you’re telling me it doesn’t make sense? The ball didn’t spread out or become transparent, so its molecules remain in the same position. The wall didn’t change either, so it’s not changing. You pass objects through other objects, without changing the distribution of atoms, and you want to talk to me about it not making sense?” He scoffs, before laughing “Check yourself before you wreck yourself.” He says while still laughing

Esme fake chuckles back and says 'Yeah, okay buddy, you win. See, the difference between us is that you're given a real world explanation to something that's purely magical, which I'm happy to take part in since you choose how you define your Stands powers, but when it comes to my Stand and how I define that, I accept the bizarre. There ain't no explanation for it cos it isn't explainable. We can go back and forth over how your Stand works cos you decided to determine it's power as something that can be explained, but I quantify Black Forces on a whole different scale. You're comparing something you've turned mundane to something that can only be explained as magic. So yeah, it doesn't make sense, because it doesn't need to.'

“It can be explained as something mundane. Solids to liquids, liquids to solids. And I know for a fact that it weakens objects by stretching gaps, because I’ve tested it. Steel doesn’t melt fully, it just becomes more malleable, because those super tight bonds and small gaps got bigger. It is genuinely not that hard, as long as you’re smarter than an amoeba.

His first punch completely whiffs, and though his second appears to connect, it was all but a trick of the light as two impacts strike him Attack: 16 Damage: 6 Attack: 24 Damage: 12
Both punches hit him, he then takes a deep breath. He still has his eyes closed, speaking calmly "You know, you're a strong kid. You could be someone of importance. What's your last name?"
"Joestar. Josuno Joestar."
He sighs and puts his hands in his pockets "Of course you're a Joestar. You can call me Mr. Zeppeli."
"Alright Mr. Zeppeli. You're pretty strong."
"As are you. Would you like to learn what I do?" He says grabbing a lollipop from one of the shelves and popping into his mouth, the wrapper still on.
"Yeah! It seems as strong as my stand."
“Good, looks like my fate is sealed then. Now do you know what plunge is?”

“You have a stand that can create portals through anything black, and you’re telling me it doesn’t make sense? The ball didn’t spread out or become transparent, so its molecules remain in the same position. The wall didn’t change either, so it’s not changing. You pass objects through other objects, without changing the distribution of atoms, and you want to talk to me about it not making sense?” He scoffs, before laughing “Check yourself before you wreck yourself.” He says while still laughing

Esme fake chuckles back and says 'Yeah, okay buddy, you win. See, the difference between us is that you're given a real world explanation to something that's purely magical, which I'm happy to take part in since you choose how you define your Stands powers, but when it comes to my Stand and how I define that, I accept the bizarre. There ain't no explanation for it cos it isn't explainable. We can go back and forth over how your Stand works cos you decided to determine it's power as something that can be explained, but I quantify Black Forces on a whole different scale. You're comparing something you've turned mundane to something that can only be explained as magic. So yeah, it doesn't make sense, because it doesn't need to.'

“It can be explained as something mundane. Solids to liquids, liquids to solids. And I know for a fact that it weakens objects by stretching gaps, because I’ve tested it. Steel doesn’t melt fully, it just becomes more malleable, because those super tight bonds and small gaps got bigger. It is genuinely not that hard, as long as you’re smarter than an amoeba. Which it seems that you are not.”

“Good, looks like my fate is sealed then. Now do you know what plunge is?”
“What do you mean by your fate is sealed? Plunge is that thing where you can hit the soul, right. I think I heard about it somewhere.”

“Don’t worry about it. Just a Zeppeli family thing.” He says casually “Exactly, not only that. It allows you to manipulate your own soul, of course not to the degree of stands though.”
“So that’s how you walked through the counter.”

“I would gaslight you into believing otherwise but there’s no point to that now.”
“I know what I saw anyways. So I’m guessing it’s like turning your soul inside out. Only a soul can touch a soul, so it lets you hit stands, and pass through solid objects, right?”

“That is an apt enough description. More closely it layer’s your body with your soul like a blanket over you, which allowed me to do things like walk through solid things and turn invisible.”
“Wow…”
