[ constant paranoia has been a state of mind since he left cairo. it only got worse after she was born and he did his best to keep her out of it, but he failed on that end too. it's the curse of being a joestar that he tried to keep from her. ]
You said you got your Stand from a stone. If you opened that locket it means you got into deep trouble. I prepared it just last year just in case with your mother, but I hoped you would never need it.
Mom couldn't even be the one that gave it to me, I had to get it from some sleazy dirtbag lawyer that was in on the whole thing. Not once did they let me see her before or after, and I hate that I couldn't tell her everything was going to be alright.
[ she didn't know whether she believed if everything would be alright or not. but she was determined to change things with her own will in any case ]
Yeah, I think I got more of an idea of how bad it really was when you actually showed up to bust me out... You told me a few things, but time was running short given the situation and all.
I'd like to think that while we're here we could... just be, you know?
[ 'just be'. he doesn't think he's had an opportunity like that since he came back from egypt. always one thing or another even when he was trying his best to live a normal life. something after morioh and kira made him realize that couldn't keep steady though, and maybe that's why he isn't too surprised that his daughter doesn't seem to like him very much. ]
I still have it on me, you told me I had to keep it close on me at all times and then lectured me about how I have to also be careful about how easily you were able to lift it from me when you were picking me up off the floor after tripping.
By the way, you have shitty timing, just so you know. If it were anyone else I would've been very careful, but I didn't think I had to be on guard with you at all times.
[ at least she doesn't sound mad, just exasperated. but ah, yes, thoughtful silent jotaro moments... is it sad that she could understand these? if only he knew that his daughter really did love him, it's just that she has ~feelings~ ]
Yeah? I was thinking of going for a piercing next, considering all the solitary treatment I was getting it seems like a thing to do to pass the time.
Better you have someone else do it. You don't want infections.
[ he thought about piercings and tattoos a lot, but never went through with them. he didn't like the idea of standing still while someone needled him. maybe that proves her resilience over his? it doesn't surprise him because at the end of the day she's a joestar and he thinks the stubbornness must be genetic. ]
You're still obsessed with butterflies. Guess you haven't changed that much.
Oh, that's not really a problem... I guess I haven't showed you what Stone Free can do...
[ pulling back some, she exposes and tugs at her belly button a little bit, getting it to unravel to something stringy ]
See? I could do it with no trouble or infection--easy, right?
[ the stubbornness is definitely genetic, but for now she'll put that thing away again ]
Hell yeah, have you seen what butterflies could do to a dead body? It's savage, what's there not to be impressed about?
Anyway, I still hung onto a lot of aquatic facts that you taught me too--came in handy since I was pretty woman'd by a fish person shortly after arriving here. We had some mission to go to some casino event on the third level, something about a drug ring... There was a huge fight. Lotta fun.
