All 8 of the Joestars stood in a line on the upper deck, some unsure of what the cause of this was.

"So, Josuke and..."

"Jotaro."

"Yes, yes, my bad. Josuke and Jotaro have informed me that you all have a special spirit, called a... Stand, I think? Would you mind showing me them? If you're not comfortable, that's fine, but I'd like to know."

A few of them fidgeted, visibly uncomfortable.

"Ah, I understand! You all probably think I'm a stand user as well. I assure you, that while I do have powers of my own, they mean you no harm. I don't have a stand, like you do."

Their faces eased up at this, and Murasa breathed a silent sigh of relief.

"So, um... Jonathan, why don't you show off first?"

Jonathan lowered his head and almost whispered,

"Well... I am also... Stand-challened... But... I have something special of my own, if you so desire to see it?"

Murasa nodded eagerly, wondering what he could bring to the table, despite not being a stand user.

'Maybe he uses danmaku, like me? It'd be quite strange, but so are stands.'

Jonathan began inhaling tons of air while pursing his lips, making it sound like he was about to hock a loogie. His hands and forearms began to glow and spark, and the air was filled with a combination of sharp electric snaps and the sound a wine glass makes when you rub your finger along the rim.

"This may hurt a bit, miss. I sincerely apologize in advance." he said, firmly grasping Murasa's shoulder.

Her entire body began to buzz violently. Every inch of her,from her head to her toes, was vibrating at the speed of light. Her mouth filled with the taste of steel, and her teeth were clenched so hard that she felt that she would bite through her jaw. But, almost as soon as the feeling bowled her over, it stopped.

"Again, I sincerely apologize if I hurt you, but it was for a good reason. How do you feel?" he said in a gentle voice.

Murasa was too shocked to answer properly, but the truth was she felt amazing. Her body still tingled a little bit, but it was less holy-crap-I'm-gonna-die and more pleasantly-aggressive-massage-chair. When she finally regained control of her fine motor skills, she almost jumped for joy.

"That was so UNBELIEVABLY cool! It did hurt, like a lot, but I've never felt this nimble in my life! Or, well, not in my death, either. Do you have a name for this technique?"

His cheeks flushed strawberry red in almost an instant, and he ruffled his hair timidly.

"Some call it 'the ripple', and others prefer the term 'hamon'. I use both, but hamon is more common. Perhaps I can teach it to you sometime. You seem like you have a knack for it. Ah, but I am stealing the spotlight. Would someone else like to, 'show off'?"

Joseph stepped forward, eager to show off to foster his boisterous pride as always.

"Of course, he's not the only hamon user around, but that's not what you called us here for, is it~? Watch closely now, toots."

Purple, thorny vines creeped their way up Joseph's arms, tangling and writhing like tiny snakes, and yet, that distinct wineglass rim noise still lingered in the air.

"This is my stand, Hermit Purple. Its abilities include spirit photography, hamon augmentation, unbelievable elasticity, unmatched tensile strength, and the best grip you've ever seen."

"Spirit photography? What's that?"

"Well... It's hard to explain. I'd have to have a ¥300,000 camera. Basically, when I smash one using Hermit Purple, it takes a picture of... Whatever I'm trying to find, I guess? It used to take pictures of my arch nemesis, but he's gone now, so I have no clue what it would capture now."

"I see, I see. Since I've already seen Star Platinum and a tiny bit of Crazy Diamond, how about you go next, Giorno?"

He strode forward, pulled a bobby pin out of his hair, and held it out to her.

"Hold this for me, if you don't mind? It's important."

Murasa wondered what this had to do with his stand.

"You see, my stand, Gold Experience, is in the business of giving life. And healing, as well, but I'll let Josuke have that spotlight," he said, grabbing Murasa's hand. "I don't want to mess up your senses instead of giving life to the pin, so hold still, if you please."

A shimmering, gold plated arm extended itself from inside of Giorno's regular arm, used its pointer finger to give the hairpin a gentle tap, and fizzled into thin air. The hairpin was encased in a bubble like film, and with a tiny pop, it 'hatched' into a ladybug.

"Ah! That was... Not at all what I was expecting. But still, it's interesting to think of the potential this thing has." she said while watching the ladybug scamper about, turning her hand to give it more places to explore.

"Thank you, Captain. However, I think we should have the others just explain their stands, as we're losing daylight quite quickly."

"Ah, yes, you're right. Jolyne, Johnny, Gappy, after you go, we've gotta get this ship out to sea."

After their explanations, Murasa took a mental tally of all their abilities, hoping she could keep track of them all.

Jonathan has hamon. Joseph has hamon and Hermit Purple. Jotaro has Star Platinum. Josuke has Crazy Diamond. Giorno has Gold Experience. Jolyne has Stone Free. Johnny has Tusk. Gappy has Soft Wet. Hamon-Hermit-Star-Diamond-Experience-Stone-Tusk- Wet. Gotta remember that.

Murasa clapped her hands and flashed a smile.

"Alrighty then! Ready to set off?"

They all answered in the affirmative, and went to their stations. Murasa stood on the prow, and pointed proudly into the distance.

"Onward, crew, to find Yukari and get you home!"
