"I thought I'd lost Secchan forever, but the truth is always stranger than fiction... I know you aren't Secchan or have his memories, but I do care for you, Josuke. Well before all this came out. This used to be about revenge, but now I just want to be happy. In spite of it all. I just want happiness, like everyone else."

Stand Ability
"Misdirection~ When I'm showing you something, it's because I'm doing something else that I don't want you to see..."
- Alice Through The Looking Glass
Magia
The main part of Alice's ability is named Magia, due to it's magical effects on the environment and Alice's predisposition to stage magic. Acting as a state of energy the Stand generates, it can be used to reshape the world using raw Stand energy and it's odd properties, rewriting matter and causing the changes Saburo wants, such as abjuration, conjuration or transmutation via what Alice calls "spells", forms of her Magia energy with specific intended consequences. Such a direct use of the power is taxing on both of them. It can be used to directly power other things, such as giving Stands more power at the cost of Alice's own, such as when Yasuho's Guidance was enhanced by Magia from Alice Through The Looking Glass, temporarily being able to search for information from people's "souls". It can also impart mundane objects with new powers, such as a Magia Spell causing a car to be able to accelerate to 300 miles per hour due to Stand energy empowering the engine supernaturally or causing bullets fired at the user to move through time instead of space, sending them into the future but in the same location they were spatially to avoid them hitting. Saburo can force Alice's Magia levels to regenerate faster by either sleeping, entering deep meditation or eating a lot of food, needing to regain his energy levels to empower his Stand.
Artefact Generation
The second ability of Alice is Artefact Generation, being able to create mythical artefacts using raw matter she infuses with her Magia, using the object like a battery for her power. The "artefacts" she creates come from mythology, such as Mjolnir or Pandora's Box and are treated as Sub-Stands with the Bound Stand property, being a Stand Ability bound to a physical object. It's ability tends towards being whatever powers it is commonly believed to have, such as Mjolnir controlling lightning or Pandora's Box containing all the evils of the world and hope at the bottom. Alice's Magia is merely the spark that gives it power, human belief and the collective consciousness concerning the Artefact is what gives it power, being a more power-efficient use of the Stand Ability.
Illusion Manipulation
More a property of the Stand being made of segmented mirrors, Alice is able to manipulate very convincing illusions by carefully reflecting and refracting light, infusing the photons with miniscule amounts of Magia to alter or change theri wavelength, often misdirecting her real position to sneak attack opponents.

A little cool and detached to those he doesn't know and perhaps overly cautious, Saburo is an introspective individual who speaks up only when he feels he has something to contribute to the discussion. Depressive at the start of the series due to the disappearance of his boyfriend and his ongoing conflict with his biological father, the two share a mutual dislike for each other which resulted in him taking his mother's surname legally when Joubin showed no interest in being any sort of parent and tries to pretend Saburo does not exist.
Cunning and ruthless concerning the people he dubs his enemy like his father, he financially explotis Joubin and threatens to reveal himself to the rest of the Higashikata family, outing his affair with his birth mother to his wife, Mitsuba and eleven year old son Tsurugi. Despite saying he doesn't need a father, he does suffer some unhappiness with his domestic life as a result. On the other hand, Saburo idealizes his mother and always cherished the moments she would spend time with him due to her being a successful IT consultant in the nearby S-City, to the point an illusion of his mother wanting to cut off ties with him caused by a Rock Organism broke his heart and pushed him to try to commit suicide.
It was during his attempted suicide in the bathroom of a ramen stall using a razor blade to slit his wrists where he met Josefumi Kujo, who used his Stand, Soft & Wet to remove the sharpness from the blade with a soap bubble and incidentally popped it near the Rock Organism feeding Saburo these illusions of his mother, killing it. Thankful to Josefumi for saving his life, he quickly became friends with him and Yoshikage Kira, endeavouring to help them on their plan, but Kira wanting Saburo to stay out of it.
After the tsunami where his newfound friends disappeared two years after he met them, Saburo was once again reclusive and a little depressive until encountering Josuke and Yasuho Hirose. Joining the duo since he was already classmates with Yasuho in a singular class, he believed Josuke to be his former boyfriend, Josefumi Kujo suffering from retrograde amnesia, a belief that only strengthened after seeing his Stand, Soft & Wet. Naturally getting close to Josuke, he was a little saddened to learn he didn't remember him but offered his friendship to Josuke, wanting him to find out his identity a new, and that even if he isn't fully Josefumi, he hopes enough of Josefumi survived that they might fall in love again.
Fiercely protective of Josuke and naturally allying with him against his father Joubin and his machinations, he learnt some of what Kira and Josefumi were planning and their ultimate fate, deeming Tamaki Damo to be responsible for the "death" of Josefumi Kujo and intending to murder him in revenge for his suffering. Demonstrating himself to be a capable combatant with multiple strategies, his versatile ability and inventiveness with it's power allowed him to best more experienced opponents in a fight or support others in their plans. Despite taking heavy damage during their final conflict with the organization, Saburo's survival showcases tenacity in the face of extreme adversity.
