Because unless you're turning into my granddad, you didn't know I was thinking about whales.

Your grandfather is psychic?

His Stand is. That might be the reason why he can do that stupid trick he does, too.

He knows what you're going to say before you say it. I hate it when he does that.

Is that why you don't talk much? So he can't predict what you're going to say?

. . . . . . . . .

[Yes, this sassy asshole really did just send a series of ellipses for the sake of affirming the point.]

[You are so great. You are his favorite. God, he is so incredibly--]

Ti voglio bene, Jotaro.

...Daisuki da yo, right?

That's right.

[He is moderately surprised. Kakyoin were you wrong . . .]

Did you know that, or did you have to look it up?

I didn't know for sure until just now. Educated guess.

Not asking questions about things you don't know tends to lead to stupid and unnecessary misunderstandings.

WAS there a misunderstanding?

There was. It might be resolved now.

How would you know, if it was? Hypothetically.

That's a good question. Maybe I never would, since I keep befriending people who don't know how to communicate using their words like adults.

There are a few ways of saying ti amo without words.

You're a good friend, you know.

[Oh.]

[And just like that, it's okay. It still - it hurts, in the way that it hurts when someone digs their fingers into a healing wound, but it's not agonizing anymore. Because he was right, and because it's going to be okay, and because - he fucked up and people died, but there is still happiness. That's something he has to believe in.]

[He's surprised to find that he's crying a little bit and has to take a moment to stop and wipe his eyes before he responds.]

I really want you to be happy.

I really want to be.

[For a minute after he sends it, he just kind of looks at the words, unsure if that was a good thing to say — conversationally, at least. Maybe that was too self-centered. Self-centered, but weirdly, soul-baringly true.]

Are you worried about me?

No, not really. I think you're a lot smarter than people give you credit for, and you're well on your way to figuring out what you're doing.

Sometimes I think I get impatient and I want things to happen at my pace, the way I want them to, because I'm so used to having control, and I worry about time running out. But it's because I want to help. I'm just not always nice about helping.

Like the world's most hard-ass fairy godmother.

[Now he's laughing?? What are his emotions doing.]

Something like that.

Do you want to tell me why you're up this late?

It's OK if you don't. But I don't think you were thinking about whales.

I had a difficult day. So I can't sleep. And I want to go out, but I don't want to wake Mista, and Bruno is busy.

[Which isn't really an answer, but. Like he said. Jotaro isn't stupid.]

[... :|a ]

I can come do my best Mista impression for you on one condition.

What's that?

You have to bribe me with chocolate pudding.
