GOOD its weird not hearing it anymore i kinda missed it
you think avdol would let me get away with calling him mohammed when he gets here
[Because of course he's coming. He has to. If Kakyoin can come back from the dead, so can Avdol-- and Polnareff will give him time, right, it might take months or a whole year, but he'll come.]
If he sets you on fire again, I'm not putting you out.
[Kakyoin had stopped keeping track of the specific days when Jotaro finally showed up. (By then, it was somewhere in the range of sixty.) Kakyoin himself had arrived in early June, a little before his birthday. And today was April second, so...]
[...that put him at almost a full year of hoping in the back of his mind that he wouldn't be the only one to survive. Which...well, if people like Jonathan and Caesar had come here at various points, it wasn't a hopeless chance to wait for. If they counted Joseph on a matter of a technicality, that meant the whole group from Cairo was in the city apart from Avdol and Iggy now.]
[And oddly enough, he couldn't quite find anything pessimistic about their chances anymore.]
i mean you were under mind control i made a fire clock which was way better than writing a note in two kinds of japanese at least mine was kind of cool
was it polite like "hey if that didnt kill you i sure will soon" did you drape it over him
i still don't understand how the hell that was going to work. that's not how fire works at all, stands or otherwise.
[...seriously that was weird]
i don't remember exactly--i think it just said i was going to kill him with my name signed to it, you'd have to ask jotaro for the details. i know i handed it to him because hierophant had cut his leg knocking him over and told him he could use it as a bandage. we were in front of a bunch of girls so i couldn't exactly just kill him right there, luckily.
it meant i was going to kill him REALLY FAST and then he'd be TOO DEAD to see it hit twelve or something i don't know i half remember it it was like i was drunk i mean YOU know
[The only person who does, honestly.]
so did he do the surgery then or did he corner you later to fight
I know. Most of the time is just a complete blank space to me, and I'm pretty sure I want it to stay that way. I remember most of when I met Jotaro, though the specific details are missing in a few spaces.
I was the first one out to kill him, it wasn't like he even knew Dio sent mind-controlled assassins to begin with. And he didn't even look at the damn thing at first, believe it or not. I didn't realize I was dealing with the most obtuse human being to ever exist.
So...a few things happened, I confronted him directly, he kicked the shit out of me. The next thing I know, I'm waking up on the floor of his house getting that thing pulled out of my head, and he's looking at me like he actually gave a damn whether someone that almost killed him lived or died.
thats our jotaro all right obtuse and caring yare yare
[This is . . . kind of a dark turn to take, and maybe he shouldn't, but it isn't as if this topic is going to come up very much. So might as well bring it up, right?]
does it ever really screw you up, knowing there's a lot of shit you did that you can't really remember? i try not to think about it, but that's a hell of a long time to have no idea what i was doing.
[Three months. He'd gone back and calculated it, one night while he couldn't sleep in the desert. Three months, he was under Dio's sway, and that's an awful lot of time that wasn't spent tracking down Joseph or hunting Jotaro.
He has flashes, sometimes. Insights. Little pictures that have no beginning or end, no context, just an awful snapshot. He knows he spent some time in the mansion proper, with Dio himself; he can remember that, at least, standing dutifully in the library, waiting for instruction. He remembers blood, staining Chariot's sword, splashing over him; he remembers the pile of bodies that were the remains of Dio's meals. Beyond that, though . . . did he kill someone? Did he act as a bodyguard? Did he track down other Stand users for Dio? Maybe. It's possible.]
i emptied out my bank account i mean way beyond a plane ticket to japan and i think i might have stayed with him for a while there before japan
i think i must have too. i'm not sure how long my family was in cairo at the time.
[...He couldn't really come up with much even if he thought about it. There was an odd kneejerk sense of annoyance at the name 'Yellow Temperance' like he'd spoken to that Stand's user at some point--the same went for Terence D'Arby, but Kakyoin couldn't recall having met either of them before.]
i have no idea how i ended up transferring to tokyo. last i knew before i met jotaro i was still living in sendai, that's four hours away.
[God knows the timelines work out. But thinking that sends an unpleasant shiver down his spine, and Polnareff shakes his head, as if he might clear the thought that way.]
I think that's the worst part That we were kind of normal Nobody suspected for ages That and I'm pretty sure I mean Just the kind of shit we'd do for him you know?
[I'm pretty sure I killed for him, found food for him is not something you can just say over text.]
