Navi Joe processed for a second what other useless information he could tell Ephradil. He spaced out for a moment and his eyes blipped back to life as Baxter spoke of New Life.
"Hey, uh, Baxter buddy.. pal.. friendo.. ya know that New Life is already gone right? Like.. it went, zooooooom! And then it went, BOOOOOOOOM! Oh and the Life Virus has already been taken care of as well. If ya read my newsletters you would know that."
He casually reaches under his counter and places an application on it with a pen, whistling and pushing it towards Baxter's direction.
In a whisper, he says "Btw sign up now for our special offer of spending an extra 100% more zenny per month on top of the normal subscription cost. The special part of this offer is that the newsletter is almost never given out for its normal subscription cost."

Out of Character WHAT?! His stoic demeanor falters for a moment... or maybe it was just everyone else eyes malfunctioning. Yes, likely that second one. For sure. The bossman continues The Life Virus broke free but then lost immediately but then also New Life exploded?!
He glances at the application, takes the pen and scribbles furiously while gifting those present with more of his voice What is wrong with those posers!? They should have left the bug with me from the beginning! Obviously frustrated at the revelation.
Meanwhile on the page instead of filling anything in there's a crude drawing of Larion and Muigi beating up a Heel navi with chairs.

Navi Joe leaps over his counter, standing next to Baxter and placing an understanding hand on his shoulder. He looks at him as if they were best friends for centuries.
"It's okay man, it's okay. Let all the frustration out. Let it alllll out."

Ephradil simply watched the scene unfold before him, almost unsure what to feel about Baxter's response to the...Life Virus? Such a creature didn't ring any familiar bells for him, but from Baxter's reaction, it was a pretty big deal.
The idea of just leaving crossed his mind, but he suppressed it. After all, the antics of Navi Joe and this Baxter fellow amused him a bit. Maybe he would actually seek out other navis after this...
Glancing towards Baxter, Ephradil couldn't help but chuckle at the situation. together, these two were a rather hearty duo, in his eyes.
"Well, at least this Life Virus thing has been defeated, right? One less threat on the net." Ephradil said, nodding toward both of them as he attempted to shed some light on the positive results.

Out of Character FOR NOW! He exclaims in an abrupt, loud voice. Who knows when whoever beat it will use its glorious power for EVILLLL. I bet it was the "WAHH crew" of Netopia. Those tap dancing fiends. Baxter shakes his fist angrily at the accusation. clearly not amused by this rival gangs theoretical antics.

Navi Joe hops up and takes a seat on his counter, shrugging at Baxter's plight.
"If they're even smart enough to use it for evil. It takes brains to be evil, ya know?"
A ding and little window appears before Navi Joe, his white lights for eyes growing in size.
"Ooooooooo I have found out the reasoning behind the meteor shower! It appears the first ever Navi has shown up there. Actually.. speaking of that I think I remember something else going down over there."
Navi Joe falls backwards into his shack, diving through various articles. He finally picks up a story on the appearance of a large shadowy blob that was deadly to the touch.
"Pretty sure this guy was there too some point recently! That's pretty current for ya, right--uh.. I didn't catch your name?"
He gestured towards Ephradil like a telephone pole gestured to another with a power line.

'The first navi...?' Ephradil thought. Was someone trying to capture it or...? 'No idea who that is by name though...hm.'
when joe mentioned a strange blob that was deadly to even touch, Ephradil rubbed his chin in thought with his right index finger, closing his eyes momentarily as he did so. tHen, his eyes flew open as a lightbulb turned on above his head.
"AH! you mean like those Slime Gel viruses?" he asked, thinking of the blue, pudgy little viruses.
"Oh, right. forgive me for not introducing myself. I'm Ephradil, Arctic Lion of Light and Steel. Er, Metal." he said with a tinge of gusto and pride. Almost as if Baxter's intro rubbed off on him a little bit. Very minutely.

Out of Character Baxter strikes a sick pose as Ephradil introduces himself finally. Supporting the navi with all his machoman power to give his intro the biggest oomph. He also gives him a Charleston Chewtm
The first navi? Pff. What a nerd. I bet he's as weak as that last goth kid I saw. Baxter opens up his notebook and doodles down a reminder to go beat up the wahh crew for stealing the life virus. It's just a picture of him punching a dude in the face with the words 'wah'.

Ephradil accepts the Charleston ChewTM and chucks it into the air, catching it between his jaws, aiming a thumbs-up in Baxter's direction.
Proceeding to chew on the candy, Ephradil thought about what Baxter mentioned; something about a 'goth navi' he ran into not long ago?
"Hm...what was this 'goth navi' like?" the arctic beast asked. It seemed he was full of questions based on the more information he was given.

Out of Character Yknow, gothy. Baxter pretends to act all depressed and moody, but he can't because he's too dope so it just looks weird. Weird head fins, all black n yellow, terrible fashion sense. He even had a raspy voice.

"No no not like the slime gels. Like it's a straight up blob. With arms and legs. Really creepy."
Navi Joe shivers a second before tossing the article into the shed.
"Yeah that goth guy sounds pretty lame. I mean who even has head fins?? What is this, the 22nd century?? Everyone knows that NOWADAYS, ya wanna be cool? Then you be betta' be rockin' some cool socks."
Navi Joe takes off one of his boots to reveal a long sock with dinosaurs shoot laser beams from their eyes towards meteors at a disco inferno party.

Ephradil listens closely to their descriptions of the two 'mystery beings' and decides to make mental notes of them. If such force was needed against one of them, it probably applied to the 'monster' as well.
"Hm. So, Life Virus has been hunted. Fin-man and the slime monster..." the lion said to himself in thought. Joe and Baxter presented both beings as jokes, but somehow that raised his level of awareness instead of putting him at ease.
Glancing at Navi Joe's socks for a moment, he ponders for a moment, flashing a toothy grin.
"It would be pretty handy to have one of those. If you could summon a dinosaur that shoots lasers, it'd be like an ancient weapon or something. A very useful thing. Cool too."
At least that's what Ephradil thought. But it seemed they were maybe deviating a bit from the location's named purpose...or at least Ephradil felt he himself might be doing so.

Out of Character Yo I straight don't remember why I came in here. Baxters dope composure momentarily lost as the socks dopenastiness overpowers all reason and conversational topics. OH, YO, I DO. IT WAS TO FIND SOMEONE SICK E N U F TO THROW DOWN AND LISTEN TO MY BOY BELARUS' MIX TAPE. Baxter whips it out... the mix tape, that is. It's a mystery data but contained within are surely the phat beats of BELARUS.

Ephradil stares at Baxter for a moment and then poses the first question that comes to mind.
"Bela-who? Is that a famous music artist or something?" he asked curiously.
It was clear Ephradil had no idea who the person was. Nor had he met any 'composers' or music artists either in his existence. But in his mind, he wondered if anyone could afford time for such things if slime beasts and 'first navis' were roaming around.
However, the thought crossed his mind for a moment that a little music might probably help if things were somehow looking bleak. Or did they need training instead?

"I'm not much of a rapper myself BUT I am an excellent music critique so if ya'll need a judge and a beat I'm your man."
From behind the counter, Navi Joe pulls out an old looking machine with two black records, one on each side. Just what sort of junk did he keep in this shack of his?
