[Like. She knows. She didn't know how to stop doing it, but she knows.]
no subject
So maybe that's what I hand out to other people right back, and that doesn't mean I'm right, either.
no subject
I feel like you usually are. That's why I hate it.
no subject
[THANKS JOTARO]
I just say what I think, from the way it looks where I stand. That's all.
no subject
...Alright. Then maybe you can tell me what you think about the fact that you love Giorno and I love Giorno, but he must be somewhere between the two of us and I'm over here seeing how you're a good person, but this shit keeps happening.
no subject
So you're pissed because you think I don't think you're a good person, or something?
no subject
I'm frustrated because I can't figure it out. But then, I can get along with Abbacchio, so fuck me, maybe I'm just one of the "bad guys".
[The quotes are palpable and dripping with sarcasm. Finally she shifts so she's resting her chin in her palm instead.]
...Do you not think I'm a good person?
no subject
[Which is not actually a good point, necessarily, but this is also Jotaro we're talking about.]
Are you sure this is really something you want to hear?
no subject
Because you've been so sparing in your opinions before now?
[sigh...]
no subject
I'm not saying that to be a dick to you. I'm saying honestly, do you know anything about me that would warrant something like that?
no subject
I...know you're going to teach a baby otter to swim. That's pretty cool. [...] But no, honestly the Giorno thing is the main appeal.
[And now she's pointing at Jotaro through the screen.]
Now you answer me. If you didn't know I was talking to you mostly because of those reasons, would you be as resistant as you're being now? Like, say I was still trying and you didn't have that idea of me in your head already. Would you have such a problem with me?
no subject
[He shrugs, as best he can with an otter on his chest.]
If it makes you feel better, I'm not going out of my way to treat you differently, or anything. Is that what you thought, that I'd decided to just shit on you especially or something?
no subject
[After a moment, Izabel shakes her head.]
I don't know what I thought. You're so weird, I just... I don't get you a lot of the time. And I don't like being patient, life is short.
no subject
...Why do you think I'm friends with Giorno and Kakyoin? Any ideas?
no subject
[But that isn't her real answer, and she tugs her hat down over her eyes with a noisy sigh.]
Gonna go ahead and say it might have something to do with that whole thing where they want to do stuff for other people to make them happy and they give it their all whether they should or not, with what you just said about me.
no subject
[He closes his eyes a minute, more seemingly lost in thought than out of any desire to ignore her.]
Both of them give a damn about something bigger. Not just "about other people, instead of themselves". They believe in something. So I believe in them.
When are you going to show me that?
no subject
That's not the kind of thing that's so easy to just go "here, have this" about. Why should I feel like I have to tell you when I haven't even told Giorno explicitly because he's good at reading people like a book and you just admitted you're bad at people oh my god.
[Yep, sure had an argument with herself there and is just more frustrated for it. The hat only gets pulled down further. It's eating her.]
...Listen. I'm not impressive, or anything. Not like them.
no subject
no subject
no subject
[And that, at least, is honest, and more on the side of confused than harsh.]
Shouldn't you feel like that because you want to forge that kind of bond with someone? In the long term, isn't that the point?
no subject
[Hrmnrm.]
How do I say this, um... I worked with my boss for...I think like two of this place's years, if I'm thinking right? Shit's hard to tell sometimes. She's great, and she's my friend, but she doesn't know shit about me. Giorno's different, like, holy fuck what a mess that is, how'd I get to love this kid so damn fast, but it's still not something we just...talk about?
And then there's you, and you keep being all "be honest, be honest" and we aren't close, we don't even really like each other, so why do I feel like I should tell you things I haven't told the others, like you're...being me, I guess. Using words to get what you want. It doesn't make sense to feel like that.
no subject
I think it's probably that. What you're trying to describe. But I don't know for sure, that's just a guess.
[Hadn't Kakyoin said something like that, too? The Star suits you, as a source of hope, and the Hierophant is one who pursues hope...]
no subject
[But he's not anyone else, so yay?]
Anyway. I have something special like that. I do. It's not really anything like theirs, so maybe you'd think it's really small and dumb in comparison, but it's mine. I just -- and maybe it's silly -- I'd rather...not. Tell you. At least for right now. [Pause.] And whatever you do, don't compare this to the Stand thing right now. I already know. Except it's more...
Saying it now seems...wrong. It shouldn't just be because of this, right?
no subject
[...Hmmmm.]
Anyway, I think I've figured something out. I guess now it's just a matter of seeing if I'm right.
no subject
[She's accepted this. She's been defeated. Why are you like this?]
