Stand Name: Glad to Be Gay

Namesake: 1978 song by Tom Robinson

Type: Close Range, Stand Colony, Uncontrollable, Shared, Infectious, Temporary

Appearance: Glad to Be Gay appears as multiple spherical creatures, similar in size to a baseball with a singular eye in the middle of its bodies. The stands have three thin limbs with circular feet, although they rarely use them, as they're mostly flying around their user. Their body's colors and patterns change depending on what would be most likely to calm the user.

Destructive Power: E

Speed: E

Range: E

Durability: E

Precision: E

Developmental Potential: A

Abilities:

Stand Infection: If Glad to Be Gay's user becomes aware that another person, no matter who, is depressed or irritated in any way, and the user cares about them to a degree of wanting them to get better, the person will be infected and develop the stand themselves, regardless of whether they have a stand already. Glad to Be Gay will disappear if it is no longer useful to its user, but the user will continue to be able to infect others for a short period afterwards. Previous users of the stand can always be reïnfected.

Cheer Up: Once a user infects someone with Glad to Be Gay, the stand will manifest and assume a personality and behaviour that is most likely to help the new user gets better. The stand's bodies will constantly accompany the user and try to lift the user's mood at any opportunity they can. Glad to Be Gay is completely aware of what is bothering the user and has full access to the user's memories. The stand's presence itself doesn't affect the user's emotions in any way and it has no actual power of its own.
