I wasn't . . .

[MOVING ON.]

So what if you, like, attacked a woman? But not actually attacked, just fake-attacked, so I could fake-defeat you-- then she'd be really grateful to me, and that's how I get my next paramour!

[starmark]

Hmmmmmmmmmm. I don't like animals who attack women.

[But it doesn't seem like that's a "no", so much as just a general statement; evidently he's voicing his thoughts aloud as he considers this.]

But you said it's not really attacking. And. Women expect wolves to be dangerous, anyway, don't they? That one threw pepper in my eyes and all I did was look at her.

[Grump grump grump.]

Which woman is it? Did you pick out a good one?

[silvercrusader]

[Ah yes, the Pepper Incident. The source of much whining and pawing for quite a while. Polnareff remembers well.]

I dunno yet! I figure we could stake out the streets for a while. Lots of women come and go.

[He's really not picky; he'll find someone good looking enough soon.]

I wanted to make sure you were on board first.

[starmark]

You're going to have to be much quieter if we're going to have a stakeout.

[... :|a ]

And you can owe me a steak. Out.

[Hee hee.]

[silvercrusader]

Hah.

[Good one.]

Yeah, all right! Raw or cooked?

[Important distinctions to make, and he nods towards . . . a random direction, actually, he has no idea which way is home.]

Come on, let's get started! Oye, and you can tell me more about scents and shit-- what the hell do I smell like, aside from yours?

[starmark]

[You know what's funny? He doesn't need to walk over and make a show of getting in a few good sniffs around Polnareff's neck and shoulders. But he's going to do it anyway, because it's funny, and also because it will leave a little more of him on his brrrrrrrro. Just in case.]

Like metal and oil. Smoke. Leather. ...Magic.

[Mmm, magic.]

You've been playing with that baby I gave you.

[jotaro he's like sixteen now]

[silvercrusader]

Haruno-o-o-o--

[Any and all discomfort Jotaro's sniffing had induced is instantly gone. Polnareff coos out the name, smiling at nothing at all.]

Not just a baby anymore-- although he's always going to be my baby. But he's seventeen! He's practically an adult.

[starmark]

He grew up fast. Sometimes he comes into the woods and runs around in patterns. He draws pictures with his scent for me.

[What a cutie.]

Does he have to approve of your lady?

[silvercrusader]

[Of course he does. Because Haruno is clever, and pure, and so, so perfect.]

He will! I mean, yes, he does, but he's not going to be joining us.

[Some things a son shouldn't have to witness his father doing, and that includes flirting. If any lady gets beyond the quickie stage, Haruno will have to approve-- but that's for far later.]

Isn't he the best?

[starmark]

He's pretty good.

[Eighty-five points!]

...Hey. Have you seen that red-hooded human around?

1/2

[silvercrusader]

The delivery boy with the good legs?

[Yes, obviously.]

Yeah, wh--

[silvercrusader]

[WAIT.]

Why?

[starmark]

Stop. Stop looking at me like that, I'll bite you.

[HE SUPER WON'T, LOOK AT THIS TSUN. IT IS THE MOST OBVIOUS TSUN TO EVER TSUN.]

[silvercrusader]

Jotaro! I'm just looking at you!

[With the biggest shit-eating grin to ever grace man.]

Do you know what he smells like?

[starmark]

Y— no shit I do! Do you think I don't smell people who trespass in my woods?

[silvercrusader]

[IT MEANS SOMETHING-- actually, no, it doesn't, because Jotaro definitely does smell everyone. But! He's looking all flustered, so it counts as a win.]

So why were you asking about him, then?

[starmark]

[oh, the flustered train isn't stopping anytime soon. he's just getting more and moreso with every passing second.]

Because he trespasses! In my woods! I should eat him.

[silvercrusader]

Well, something with your mouth, anyway.

[starmark]

I'll something with my mouth you.

[silvercrusader]

Oooh, Jotaro~

[He even makes a kissy face at him. Love you, bro.]

I notice you haven't eaten him, despite the fact he keeps trespassing.

[starmark]

...Because. I have to teach him a lesson. I can't just eat him or he won't know what he's doing wrong.

[bruh he'd be dead though]

So he has to learn to stay out first.

[silvercrusader]

Ahh. Terribly clever, that. And in the meantime, you can get to know him-- as you escort him out of the woods. Terribly clever.

[starmark]

What? No. Shut up!

[silvercrusader]

Try and get him to walk in front of you in the summer, I bet he'll take his cloak off again. What a view!

[He's playing the most dangerous game, winding Jotaro up like this, but it's far too tempting for him to stop.]

[starmark]

...The hell do you mean again?!

[UH-OH. IS THAT JEALOUSY. THAT MAY BE JEALOUSY.]
