...Yeah? What about it...what in particular? He's a lot more outgoing lately, than he's been. Mom made him some cards for Christmas so he can try to talk and stuff, even.
It's...let me try to phrase that differently. Star's tough and can be really dangerous in a fight, I know that from experience on both sides of it. He even looks like a threat, if someone doesn't know any better. But there's a lot more to him than that--what I mean is that he's not just as straightforward as 'punch it until it stops moving'.
[So basically a giant punchy kitten.]
So he's exactly what any Stand is; a reflection of its user.
[He closed his eyes, seeming to withdraw inwardly for a fraction of a second, and in the next moment after that, strong purple arms gently circled around Kakyoin from behind.]
Y-yeah. [He was startled for just a second at the sudden appearance. but Kakyoin quickly relaxed and leaned back in much the same way as Jotaro with Hierophant.]
It's hard for me to imagine having one for my whole life. Can you imagine what it'd have been like, if I could've stopped time at three or four years old? Or worse, if Star had been putting other kids in the hospital after playground fights at recess?
[...]
I'm sure he'd be a lot different, if that were how it'd been. I think...a lot of what we did made him who he is now.
[Mmm. Good. The sight of Kakyoin laughing was always good.]
There was a guy once, whose Stand did that. Reverted you back to a younger age. He did it to me and I lost Star, because I didn't have him when I was young. The bastard...
I think I remember hearing Polnareff complain about something like that when I got back. That probably would have even given me a lot of trouble, if I think about it.
[Phantom snuggling feels so strange and yet so weirdly good. Especially when he has coils of Hierophant to sink down into like a particularly tentacle-y scarf.]

I really...think I like when you bring out Star Platinum, too.

I like seeing what other Stands in general say about their users, so of course I'd like yours.

So. What does Star say about me?

The long version?

But I guess it doesn't make enough of a difference for me to bother arguing about it.
