Man and Machine. Man and Monke. Man and Man. Which of these sounds wrong?

The blast was majestic, to say the least. The three attacks converged into one point and blew away 10 of Hercules' lives along with a 40-meter radius of ground that was scorching hot from the blast.
In the middle of it, Hercules stood tall, but he had already lost 10 lives and with only 2 more, and against opponents of this strength, victory was almost out of sight.
"Return Berserker!" Illya's voice rang in his ears as he jumped back and caught her then with a big leap tried to escape.
"Oh, and before I forget." Jouichirou did a thumbs-up motion.
"Killer Queen has already touched the bullet inside your stomach," Jouichirou then brought his thumb downwards and,
*Click*
*BOOM*
With a clicking sound inside Hercules, his stomach suddenly expanded as he burped and farted at the same time.
"100% Maximum! No Chill!" Rin threw jewels at Hercules, trapping him in place using her magecraft.
"I am the boner of my sword," Archer shot another Caladbolg before running to his Master's side, who was being protected by Shirou from the blast from Caladbolg.
"Are you okay Rin?!" Shirou asked.
"No!" Rin said dusting her clothes.
"Well, we can always ge-" Shirou didn't get to finish his sentence before he threw up blood and collapsed on the ground.
"...Hey, sleepyhead get up... this isn't funny ok..." having received no response Rin leaned down and checked Shirou's condition.
"Oh! Come on are you serious. Uh!! Now I can't let you die because you saved me from some dust and I'm now emotionally attached to you... Haa!" Rin signed as she took out a red jewel.
"10 years of mana lovingly stored in a one-of-a-kind jewel my father gave me before he went off to die, now being used to save a STUPID HIGH JUMP KID!"
The jewel fell to the ground as Shirou's internal injuries healed.

"Are you sure you're ok?" Shirou asked with uncertainty looking at Jouichirou stitching his arm back, the same arm that Hercules had bitten off, Jouichirou had the Numbers and Sheer Heart Attack retrieve it before the explosion.
"Tis but a scratch," Jouichirou answered.
"A scratch?! Your entire arm below the biceps is off!" Shirou said.
"Focus on cooking Shirou,"
"Ya focus on cooking Shirou," Archer said mockingly.
"Ya focus on cooking Shirou because Paimon is hungry!" Paimon said.
"Fine but are you gonna tell me how cooking with the ingredients you provided is gonna fix that arm of yours," Shirou asked.
"Pearl Jam, this Stand has the ability to cure any diseases by mixing into the food that the target consumes, the more delicious the food the better the effect,"
(A/N: Disease means any abnormality in the body that is not only caused by bacteria or virus but by mental and physical damage as well.)
"And that can fix your arm,"
"Well yes, but actually... no. You see it can regenerate an organ that has been infected but regrowing an arm is questionable, so by reattaching my arm, Pearl Jam can heal it up since it is considered a disease,"
"I see... Wait you just said regenerate, What does that mean?" Rin asked.
"Well, you see Pearl Jam works by first destroying the disease, then it regenerates the destroyed part, which is good as new... pun intended by the way,
"It can even be used for combat,"
"Like how?" Saber asked.
"Remember the time after Hercules bit off my arm and started bleeding and spewing brain matter from his ears?"
"Ya, it was gross like a rose."
"... Not the best rhyming but anyways, you see right before Hercules bit off my arm I infused my blood with Pearl Jam, and here is a little quiz for you what is common between all Berserker."
"Uh!... Anger issues..." Rin said as she realized something and looked at Jouichirou in disbelief.
"Ding! Dong! You see all berserkers have this thing called Mad enhancement which allows them to give up their mental humanity for power and when my blood went inside his tummy Pearl jam took effect and destroyed Hercules' brain but since it is a class skill Berserker went back to normal after dying and resurrecting,"
"Wait right there my Master's homosexual brother, you mean to say that it was all your plan," said Saber.
"Yes,"
"Getting your arm bitten off was your plan,"
"Yes Yes,"
"Even the part where Berserker farted out smoke."
"Yes Yes Yes Yes... YES!"
"... You son of a b*tch you crazy and cool!"
While their talk was going on, Rin in the corner of the room was mumbling, "Baeber is being corrupted, Baeber is being corrupted, Baeber is being corrupted," looking at the dark aura around her everyone decided to keep their distance.

"It's ready!" Shirou gave the signal as Paimon hurried over to the table and without bothering about anything or anyone or any kind of manners, "Itadakimasu!" she started eating.
"So good~"
Jouichirou was in the bathroom with a bowl as Rin stared at him about to eat. She wanted to see how the process worked.
Jouichirou gulped down the soup in one go and three seconds later the effect started as the part where Jouichirou's arm was joined crumbled and regenerated at a quick pace and left a mess of blood, flesh, skin, and bones.
He checked his arm and found it good as the old one, and cleaned up the mess before joining the others at the grand dinner.
He took out a can of beer and poked a hole in its bottom part, he put the hole in his mouth and then opened the can.
The beer flowed into his mouth as he drank it all in one go.
"Ahh!!"
The others were staring at him looking at his bizarre ways.
"What?" he asked.
"... Can you not be weird while doing anything in your life?" Everyone except Archer and Shirou asked.
"...No"
"Why?"
"Cause why not?"
"Just why?"
"Because as a proper Jojo and a proper Stand user doing poses and bizarre stuff is mandatory."
"..."
"I feel like I should give up on my plan of becoming a Stand user and stick to pipes," said Shirou.
