I

guess we could do it that way, sure

i mean if you're okay with that
lapidarius: (into the distance)

[personal profile] lapidarius 2016-09-20 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
well that does seem like the safest way to do it

i just don't

i'm not sure that's something i'm ready to handle in a fight, on top of everything else.
lapidarius: (there's a beacon in the darkness)

[personal profile] lapidarius 2016-09-20 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
i'm a little worried about that, yeah. i know i can do it under pressure, but

i don't think i'll be able to do it at all if part of me is thinking about the world as well as concentrating on this
lapidarius: (a hundred billion castaways)

[personal profile] lapidarius 2016-09-20 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
yeah. it's okay, we can figure something out.

[The question was what, if his initial plan was that far out the window.]

Maybe I can ask Giorno to turn something into a rabbit or something like that and start from there?
lapidarius: (can you help me i'm bent)

[personal profile] lapidarius 2016-09-21 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. That's right, isn't it? I'd forgotten about that--if that's the case I'd rather not risk any backlash on myself either.

How? I think it depends, kind of. Death 13 was just another Stand, so I had Hierophant run directly through its ear through the rest of its body. But a living physical person or animal is a little different; doing that could cause a lot of internal damage, so in that case I can make him semi-intangible and get under their skin.


[how does this not immediately kill people we just don't know, it's jojos]

At least I'm fairly certain that's what I did that time.

i don't know, jojo. i don't want to hurt you. and i don't want to

[...]

you don't know what it's like to not have control of what you're doing. and i don't want you to know.
lapidarius: (only hope can keep me together)

[personal profile] lapidarius 2016-09-21 01:35 am (UTC)(link)
it's not, but i don't think i


are you home right now? we shouldn't talk about this over text.

[Kakyoin didn't answer, instead coming to the library five minutes later looking a little pale and nervous.]

...We may be out of options, but I'm really not sure that's a good idea.
lapidarius: <user name="lintufriikki" site="tumblr.com"> (start bending me; it's never enough)

[personal profile] lapidarius 2016-09-23 04:21 am (UTC)(link)
I...okay. Talking, I can do that.

[He was even very good at it. Usually. So he just had to take a deep breath and outline what bothered him and why this felt like a terrible idea. Kakyoin pulled out a chair and sat down, lacing his hands together to stop from fidgeting.]

I don't want to hurt you. And I'm worried that I don't have enough control when it comes to doing this with a living, breathing person to avoid doing that.

[He glanced away for a second before looking at Jotaro directly, as steadily as he could manage.]

...I know this is stating the obvious, but having no conscious control is not a pleasant feeling and I'm glad I can't remember most of it. I'm not sure I could do that to anyone that wasn't trying to kill me, and I don't want to be the one that does it to anyone that isn't.
lapidarius: (when I look to the west)

[personal profile] lapidarius 2016-09-23 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
That's exactly it, yes.

[He didn't pull his hands back or look away, but Kakyoin was still pale and visibly unsettled despite how hard he was trying to cover it.]

You're right in saying we don't have a lot of options. But even so, that's...terrifying.
lapidarius: (there's a beacon in the darkness)

[personal profile] lapidarius 2016-09-23 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't...think it's a matter of things being different because it's you specifically. Whether it's you, or Joseph, or anyone--I don't want to hurt any of you like this.
lapidarius: (but these things can still be given)

[personal profile] lapidarius 2016-09-23 08:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I know that you wouldn't force it. It's just--this isn't easy. I don't want to do it, but...

[Kakyoin trailed off, gaze dropping to their hands as he thought this over. He really, really didn't want to do this. But...he knew that there might someday be a point where he wouldn't have a choice. There could be a time in which they fought someone they couldn't defeat any other way, and if Dio ever turned into the threat they knew him as, Kakyoin didn't know what else he had that would stand a chance against that.]

[So if he had to practice it as he'd already resolved to try, and if there was no other option...what else were they supposed to do?]

[He closed his eyes and took a slow breath, trying to resign himself to the idea or at least determine how to go about it that was the least horrifying way possible.]


...if we're really going to do this--and you have to be absolutely certain that you're okay with it--I want to set a few conditions first.
