Early Powerswap, exact time uncertain

[starmark]

hey so

i may not be home for a while

i mean i might need to stay away from people for a while so for now let's just talk like this, don't come running trying to find me or anything

...

please

i'm not trying to be a stubborn asshole i just need you to trust me that you shouldn't get near me just yet

[lapidarius]

[Well, wasn't that...concerning.]

Tell me what's wrong. Are you hurt?

I'm not running off looking for you yet, I'll trust that you can take care of yourself.

But that may well be the most worrying thing I've heard from you in a while, what's going on?

[starmark]

well

i'm at work and i tried to send star to go get something for me

but it wasn't star that answered

[lapidarius]

what

what the hell did the city do this time, what did show up?

[starmark]

um

...look remember you promised that you wouldn't come running here

i mean it don't come here I'M OKAY



but i think it's my mom's stand

[lapidarius]

jojo i want you to appreciate the fact that i am not sprinting out the front door at this exact moment

are you completely and absolutely certain you're feeling okay?

do you need me to check on holly?

[starmark]

i do appreciate it

the thing is it's responding like star would except it's not star. i mean it's doing what i tell it to. and it's all vines and shit...i keep thinking of it as being sort of like hierophant, with the tendrils and everything

it's not eating me nori it's just...here

[lapidarius]

wait

so it's just acting like a normal stand?

[starmark]

i think so

yeah

i guess maybe it's because i know how to control a stand, because of star and everything, maybe it's because of that

or maybe it's because i know star can't hurt me so for some reason this thing isn't allowed to hurt me either

[lapidarius]

it could be either of those possibilities, or any number of things at this point

her stand doesn't follow most reason that i can think of

[starmark]

that's why i don't want you near me

because who knows what it even does, or might do if someone else gets near it

i don't want to take that chance with you

[lapidarius]

i'm not going anywhere, jojo. if you say you're okay, i'm trusting you to let me know if that changes, or if you figure out what it's doing.

whatever this is, i'm sure it won't last and we may have to be prepared for that, too.

[starmark]

okay

i'll let you know how it goes then

and thanks

[lapidarius]

i can keep an eye on holly for you, if this is straightforward and not a complete scrambled mess i'll bet that's where star is

be careful. i know i don't need to say that, but i'm saying it anyway.
