...He feels left out sometimes. With all the Joestars around.

Fitting in is important to him.

[mylegacy]

[He's starting to see the problem. Both of them have a default he; it's just that they're not the same person. This isn't the answer to the question he was asking, but it's something he thinks he needs to know anyway.]

I used to hate your family, you know. Sometimes I still do. So I might not understand all the way, but a little bit.

He tried to help me, too.

[starmark]

Can I ask why? You don't have to tell me. I'm pretty resilient to the idea of being hated because of something like that by now, though.

[mylegacy]

Because it's Jonathan Joestar's fault my grandfather is dead.

[starmark]

He what.

What did Jonathan do?

[mylegacy]

He didn't

[Try hard enough. But no.]

My grandfather left us, to fight the masks. He went to help Jonathan, to teach him. But he had to defend him, in the end, and he died as a result. That's what happened.

[starmark]

shit

[And then, after a good-sized pause.]

he went to fight dio brando with jonathan

[mylegacy]

Yes.

[starmark]

what the fuck is this fucking

i'm sorry

i don't know why so many people have had to die for us

[mylegacy]

I didn't have to.

[starmark]

You don't have to tell me how you died. Or why.

[mylegacy]

I don't have to do anything, I'm noticing. Except be here.

[starmark]

Do you know what happened to Jonathan?

[mylegacy]

Yes. But you probably know more details.

[starmark]

Sort of. Some of them I can't go into.

But the guy who was killing my mom, and who hurt my grandpa, who I had to kill. That was Dio Brando.

[mylegacy]

I thought he was dead.

[starmark]

Everyone did.

I guess he lived a hundred years at the bottom of the ocean, but then managed to come back by freak chance.

[mylegacy]

Vaffanculo!

[starmark]

I don't know what that means but I can guess.

Why the hell would I lie about something like that.

[mylegacy]

Someone like that doesn't deserve to have freak chance on his side!

[starmark]

No shit but here we are anyway.

[mylegacy]

You killed him?

[starmark]

I punched him so hard he broke in half and died.

[mylegacy]

[. . .]

I can't really dislike you after hearing that, can I.

[starmark]

You can dislike me for any reason you want.

I just figured you'd want to know.
