. . . I worked for the Speedwagon Foundation. They sent him to meet me and Lisa Lisa, and he found me in a restaurant with a girl and yelled at me. He was very loud. Then we fought for a while. Too long. It was stupid.

[starmark]

...wait

did he fight you like i fought you

[mylegacy]

Not exactly. But close enough.

[starmark]

Shit.

I didn't know anything about that.

[mylegacy]

I didn't think you did, Jotaro.

[starmark]

I sort of wish I'd asked him more things about stuff like that.

I never bothered because he's so good at pissing me off, I never wanted to deal with it long enough to listen.

[mylegacy]

I don't understand. Stuff like what?

[starmark]

People he met. Things he did. What his life was like just as some guy, and not as my stupid idiot grandpa.

[mylegacy]

I didn't really know him for very long.

[starmark]

I guess I'm sort of biased. I only knew Kakyoin for fifty days.

It seemed like much longer than that.

[mylegacy]

Maybe. I don't know. Maybe it matters more if it's someone important. Even if it's not so long.

[starmark]

He was really important to you. Right?

[mylegacy]

Yes.

[mfmfmfmmfmfmfmfmdfm]

He was my best friend.

[starmark]

Okay.

...Maybe this will sound weird. But if you need to fight again, tell me? Let it be me, rather than someone else.

[mylegacy]

She won't like that.

[starmark]

I know she won't.

But I think she'd like it less if she found out that I knew there was something I could do to help, and hadn't done it.

[mylegacy]

But does she understand that it will help?

[starmark]

She could. Maybe not the "why", but at least that it would help.

[mylegacy]

I don't want her to be upset.

I'm not saying no. It's just important.

[starmark]

It'd probably help if we started with not beating the shit out of each other right in front of her.

There are places around where no one would bother us.

[mylegacy]

So sneaking around.

What does it do? Your Stand thing.

[starmark]

[...Oh. Um. Hmmm.]

It punches really hard.

But it also protects me. On its own. I was holding him back when we were fighting because he didn't understand why I wasn't using him.

[mylegacy]

Why didn't you? If you just wanted me to go away.

[starmark]

I guess because I didn't want you to go away.

Lay off my mom, sure, but. A lot of what you did reminded me of stuff I used to do. The way I used to feel.

[mylegacy]

Like what?
