Caesar, piccolino, there's something very, very important I need to talk to you about. Before anyone else breaks it to you the worst way possible.
hitthebeat: (are you the one with the spark)

[personal profile] hitthebeat 2016-01-24 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Don't tell me he's there-- Look, I- [ SIGHS ] -- I don't care. Trust me this is important; it's about Jojo.

[ Notson she could just about scream at you right now if it would make you listen. ]

Our Jojo, Caesar! [ Have you ever even heard her call anyone that, really. ] I— Ugh— Listen: his mother is in this city and knowing Jojo, if anyone tells him he'll tell you and I need you to know that before things escalate more than they already are.

[ Her face is as close to stoic as possible. Unfortunately current circumstances make that look... Not all that convincing, really. ]

I think I made myself clear.
hitthebeat: (I don't think so)

[ This is the worst part about having two boys to break this to. See, she can probably handle whatever Dio might think, say or do; he's a child right now. Caesar and Joseph, on the other hand, are all she knows of raising teenage boys. If she can even call it that– they raised themselves. She just wants to think she's been there for them, just a minute or two but in some way. ]

[ This is the worst. This is too complicated and she's so sorry but she's not good with emotions at all and when she falls into complete silence, it's tense and upsetting and she's upset but right now this is less about her and more about how Caesar feels, how Joseph might feel and how, really, how far is he from the truth. ]


I omitted the truth. [ Which... Isn't much better without full context, but would Caesar even stop to hear that. ] Don't you find it strange that Loggins or Messina — or even Suzie — couldn't pinpoint my origins.

Think for a second, Caesar. Knowing me, do you think I'd lie deliberately about something so crucial.
hitthebeat: (I cried 'cause you were doomed)

[personal profile] hitthebeat 2016-01-24 09:59 pm (UTC)(link)
I didn't abandon anyone!

[ There's more than just a hint of hurt in her voice but that's more than he'd probably ever get to hear from her. It's not that different from when they found him... After he. ]

[ She doesn't want to think about that. ]

[ But it still hurts to hear that, to have that accusation flung at him by someone she cares for so much and it's a blessing that she's not standing in front of him right now, because after twenty years of this, she might crack some day. ]


Think about it - think about Mario and what he did for you! He and I are no different, Caesar. I never had a choice. If I told him- if, if I did don't you think it would change everything?

[ God, she can't do this. She can't argue with this boy, she just can't. ]
hitthebeat: (the fire and the ashes of his grace)

Caesar—

[ That's that, then. There's no way she's getting to him now and that's the issue; she knows Caesar well enough to know this won't get anywhere. ]

[ It just... hurts. And if he does care to look at it another way, she'll have left him a single text message for him to think about: "Please, listen to me." ]

[ But that's it. That's where she leaves it off at. ]

oh nothing you know just figured out that BASTARD dio took my grandfathers body and survived while kakyoin was pussyfooting around trying to "TELL" me something

he had the gall enough to try and keep me in the dark until jotaro was ready to talk about it

i swear to god caesar this is just like lisa lisa all over again i am so fucking TIRED of it
nextlineis: (☆ i could witness)

[What kind of stupid question is that? Of course I do.]

[It's what Joseph thinks, but doesn't type. Caesar coming here would feel better, but it'd lend itself to further disaster. He has an even nastier temper than Joseph does and less tolerance for bullshit from Joestars and Joestar-adjacent individuals by default than Joseph does right now. And besides, Joseph might be stronger with Caesar at his side, but he has to learn to stand on his own two feet sometimes. He can't become dependent on Caesar to handle every problem, especially not problems with his family.]


no i got this im giving jotaro a chance

[But...]

but if he doesnt do the right thing

caesar i need you to tell me everything you know promise me?
nextlineis: (☆ the things that i did)

[personal profile] nextlineis 2016-02-24 10:42 pm (UTC)(link)
okay

[Joseph's still angry, but the high energy and explosive part of his anger has diminished to a point where he just feels exhausted. All he wants to do right now is go back home to Caesar's apartment and say to hell with any of this anyway. Possibly never move again, if he can help it. But he's not going to do that. He's not going to run from this because he's never run from anything before in his life and he's not about to start to now. He can't give up and just let everyone continue deciding what's best without him having any say in it.]

thanks

[There's a longer delay in Joseph's response, mostly because he's trying to think of what he'd want to eat later. But nothing is really coming to him. His mind just keeps going around in circles. He wants so much to be distracted by this, to think about food and being able to just spend the rest of the day in Caesar's apartment with Caesar, and maybe convincing Caesar just to eat on the couch instead of at the table where it's more comfortable. He tries just rereading things between him and Caesar again to try and focus on what to say, but he can't stop trying to piece together the scraps of information now that his anger has simmered into something quieter and he's ignoring Kakyoin, who's near him again by now.]

[Jotaro said it came down the bloodline, didn't he? So Dio was the one that awoke all of their Stands. Because of Jonathan's body...]

[Joseph rubs at his eye with the heel of his hand before writing back and simply admitting,]


i dont know im not sure im going to even be all that hungry later

might just go to bed
nextlineis: (★ i don't think)

[Caesar is trying so hard right now. It doesn't take a genius to see that he's trying so very hard to keep Joseph distracted, pulling his attention to anywhere but right where he is, what he's waiting for, and who he's waiting to see and listen to. In some ways, that's enough to make Joseph want to smile, but he doesn't follow through with it. He already feels a little too strung out and tired right now to manage it though. Joseph settles for the warm instead that starts somewhere in the middle of his chest spreads instead. That's nice even if it makes him feel a little more tired. It's a good sort of tired by comparison, anyway.]

you think youre that good at doing nothing already??
