Don't be gross, Jotaro.

[ EWWW. ]

I'll work on it. I have a strategy. I don't want her running into unsavory characters. [ He glances to the window... ]

Anyway, I just wanted to drop off those candlesticks. I should go find my sketchbook and... Do something in it.

[starmark]

Well, let me know how it goes.

[He pauses, then tosses Rohan a sly look.]

And have fun drawing Star Platinum.

[manuscripture]

[ He sees that sly look. Don't think he doesn't. Unwinding from his spot beside the bed, Rohan starts to pass Jotaro sloooowly, deliberately to make it across the room on his own time. ]

Star Platinum? Who said I was going to draw him?

[ All the sarcasm in the world can't properly convey being called out, man. ]

[starmark]

You're going to "do something in your sketchbook"?

[He says, imitating Rohan's inflection on those last few words even as he tracks Rohan's movement across the floor a little too intently to be purely innocent or oblivious.]

Your eyes about fell out of your head. It's the natural assumption.

[manuscripture]

[ OOOOoOo.... If he thought he was going to be frumpy before, he hasn't seen anything yet. ]

They did NOT. [ The indignant THUMP of his tail is what gives him away every time. ] Watch your assumptions or I'll make sure your eyes fall out of your head.

[ He points to his own eyes and makes a little plucking gesture with his claws. ] I'll pick them out myself.

[starmark]

You'll have to climb me like a tree snake to reach them.

[is he enjoying this? he's enjoying this.

JOTARO KUJO IS ENJOYING HIMSELF, STOP THE PRESSES]

[manuscripture]

[ GETTING TO THE DOOR IS A LOW PRIORITY BECAUSE JOTARO IS BEING RUDE. ]

You say that like I don't do it daily. It isn't a challenge.

[ Hands on hips, huff-puff, that's how we're going to act. ]

[starmark]

And yet after all that my eyes are still fine. Does that mean you daily get distracted on your way up?

[is that an attempt at game because if so it's like a 6 out of 10]

[manuscripture]

That doesn't make any sense as a response. [ That's a swing and a miss, Jotaro. ]

I get distracted by other things all the time that aren't when I'm climbing you.

[ Okay. That came out Incorrectly. ]

I'm leaving--

[starmark]

I meant you got preoccupied with — yare yare. It's not a joke if you have to explain it.

[He shakes his head, smiling faintly despite it.]

Have fun drawing whatever you're off to go draw.

[Which is absolutely, definitely, Star Platinum.]

[manuscripture]

[ The wrinkle in the bridge of Rohan's nose disappears as he puts it in the air. ]

I'll never show it to you. [ He flicks his hand in the air and starts to slither out the door. ]

Never, ever. In your dreams. [ It's definitely Star Platinum. ] Don't bother me until nightfall.
