#this blog is my quarantine zone so I’m just gonna start posting ocs now.

More fan stands?????? Yes. I’m having a lot of fun!

These are characters for my fanpart, Starliner Express. It takes place on a one-way singles cruise from Miami to Rome. There are no stops. People start developing stands, getting into fights, and breaking things, but for some reason the captain refuses to turn the boat around!

——————————————

「Anger Management」

Stand Abilities: A stand that feeds on other peoples’ hatred for its user. The more hate it consumes, the faster and sharper its claws will become. It uses its USB tail to scrub through the internet for mean comments, but it can also plug into a person and feed off of them if they dislike Issey enough.

「Anger Management」 can also use its tail to diagnose a target’s weak points. If it plugs into a person, object, weapon, etc, its vulnerabilities will be announced by the mouth on its head. It will also make fun of its target, and is known to be quite rude.

Issey can use this ability on himself and his allies to help them identify their own weak points and areas they could improve in. He also uses 「Anger Management」 when he’s practicing singing and dancing to help him perfect his performances. It only critiques though - it can’t offer suggestions or encouragement.

User: Issey Dellavedova

Backstory: An up and coming pop star. Issey loves every aspect of his job - except the fame. As an asexual aromantic he finds the attention from his fans to be incredibly overwhelming, and has been the victim of several stalkers over the course of his short career. When he released his debut album over a year ago, he was a much friendlier person; he would spend hours after a show to talk with his fans, and was well known for being one of the kindest celebrities on the scene. Unfortunately due to the incidents mentioned above, he was forced to become colder and meaner in order to protect himself. His reputation has plummeted as a result, and people now describe him as rude, stuck-up, and dismissive.

He is on the Starliner Express because his agent forced him into a marketing deal with the Cruise Line. He’s being paid an absurd amount of money but is incredibly annoyed by the whole experience. It reminds him of his past trauma. He’s incredibly on edge. His sexuality hasn’t been made public, so despite his poor public image, his PR team has rebranded him as the industry’s bad boy bachelor. Much like Diesel, 「Anger Management」 developed after he took a glitter bomb shot handed to him by a crew member.

Issey has a true love of music. He puts everything into his creative process, and while he hates the attention he gets, he would rather die than stop performing. Despite everything, his music is still well loved.

User Namesake: Issey Miyake is a Japanese luxury fashion house. Matthew Dellavedova was a player for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Stand Namesake: Anger Management is an album by Rico Nasty: “Treat you like gum spit you out if I ain’t feeling you. I just wanna know why all these bitches so predictable. I can never be typical. Don’t come out the house unless I’m wearin’ something whimsical // From where I made it out, they lookin’ at me like a miracle. Don’t say shit you don’t mean, cause I’m literal.”

「Rapp Snitch Knishes」

Stand Abilities: It tells the target a secret - something the target really wants to know. If the target tells anyone about the secret, or even hints at it, Rapp Snitch Knishes will beat them senseless as soon as they enter an enclosed room. This room will become soundproof and inescapable from the inside. The target will not be able to leave or call for help during this period.

The stand will deactivate if anyone enters the room, Dior chooses to cancel the attack, or if the target dies. The secret it tells the target doesn’t have to be true.

User: Dr. Dior Gibson

Backstory: The ship’s head doctor. Dior’s allegiances are shrouded in mystery. Her targets include both crew and passengers, and anyone who causes too much trouble on the ship. Her emergency room is full of guests who need immediate medical attention - her small staff can’t get more than two hours of sleep at a time because people keep shuffling in. She will do anything to get the fighting to stop.

Dior is an efficient and professional woman. She only speaks to convey critical information, and uses her words extremely carefully. She is a recent veteran, and used to serve as a surgeon in the Navy’s Medical Corps. Her new job was supposed to be easy money and fun in the sun. Now there’s a bunch of super powered co-eds running around beating the shit out of each other.

Like Diesel and Issey, Dior’s stand 「Rapp Snitch Knishes」 developed after she drank a glass of glittery champagne handed to her by a crew member.

User Namesake: y’all know what Dior is. Gibson is an American Guitar Manufacturer.

Stand Namesake: Rap Snitch Knishes is a song by MF DOOM featuring Mr. Fantastic: “True, there's rules to this shit, fools dare care. Everybody wanna rule the world with tears for fear. Yeah, yeah, tell 'em tell it on the mountain hill. Running up they mouth bill, everybody doubting still // Informer, keep it up and get tested.”
