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.

[!!!!!!!!!]

Who's been telling you things about me?

You're not going to believe I just really want pudding, are you.

I absolutely will not believe that.

That's such a random thing to like.

Since you said something about people using their words: I would've just let it be a given from the timing and circumstances, but I guess I can also just say that I tried to find that out so I'd know how to do something that'd make you happy someday.

[oh noooooooo awwwww]

That's so thoughtful. I'm going to tell your mother.

She wouldn't even be surprised.

We're making progress on the vase.

That's wonderful. I'm excited to see how it turns out.

[Still not in any way bluffing.]

Kakyoin's having some trouble with focusing on making it happen but I think he'll get it pretty soon.

Poor Kakyoin. That must be very frustrating for him.

I'm confident he'll rise to the challenge.

Mostly because I'm pretty sure he still has a crush on my mom.

Is he collecting Kujos?

[...Hmmmmmmmm.]

If he is, he's not doing a very good job at it.

50% is a pretty bad average.
