Jonathan Joestar I'm currently in the middle of an emotional crisis about. Boys. or something. I happen to be picking you up because I need to talk to you about it as my legal contact who is also obligated to listen to me. I'll bring a laundry lsit of my complaints, starting with, "Then he tried kissing me, which is about when I realized it was a date, and I'd already shoved my fist in his face."

[ #actual life with Annie Leonhart lately ]

Keep it locked, necessary or otherwise. Also, read up on modern slang. You need it more than I do.

[fistofthejoestar]

[please stop calling him by his full name, you have this weird way of making it sound like you're scolding him with it even over text. he's totally resting his head on his propped up knees now, this is all too much.]

I didn't think this was the sort of thing people just casually propositioned strangers for!!

[HE'S NOT EVEN GOING TO TOUCH THE REST OF THAT HE'S AT THE LIMIT OF HIS ABILITY TO HANDLE REALITY AS IS]

[lyingheart]

[ At least he's not arguing it that's like winning and she is essentially lecturing him HE'S BEING LECTURED BY AN ALMOST SEVENTEEN YEAR OLD which honestly makes her... not that much younger than him, but details. ]

Now you know better. Think of it as a Jojo test. If it ever seems like a situation where Joseph thinks he'll be pleased with the attention, beware. You're probably about to get uncomfortable.

[fistofthejoestar]

[people keep forgetting that Jonathan is really not actually much of an adult until precious moments like these.]

He isn't always like that.

[forget the people having weird kinky sex in the other room, he's got to defend his family's honor!!]

[lyingheart]

No, he's not, but he is just often enough for it to serve as a warning. Besides, the last time I saw him in person he was demanding to know if I was easy, because he wouldn't stand to be drawn with someone who was.

[ young adults stick together okay okay ]

[fistofthejoestar]

'Easy'?

[is this...more slang....]

[lyingheart]

"Easy" as in "easy to persuade into a sexual liaison."

[fistofthejoestar]

[. . .]

I'm going to need you to drop me off at Mauritia Falls after we meet up.

[lyingheart]

[ Ain't even a little bit sorry. ]

That can be arranged.

By the way, I'm outside. Do you remember if the door was locked, and are they limiting themselves to the bedroom?

[fistofthejoestar]

[the only person who's going to be sorry after all this is Joseph's face]

I don't think we locked the door when we came in, no. But I'm not especially certain as to what they're doing.

[because he's desperately trying not to think about it tbh]

[lyingheart]

All right I'm coming in if you hear something breaking it's the door not me

[ THAT'S ALL HER WARNING because Annie politely walks in the unlocked door and looks around... okay. Uh. ]

Hey, I'm inside, but I have no idea where you are. Do you want me to call out?

[fistofthejoestar]

No, that won't be necessary. Once you come upstairs, just follow the...sounds of activity....

[lyingheart]

[ wow really ]

Thanks. On it.

[ and totally is up the stairs and just. blatantly. ignoring the people going at it once she finds the bedroom.

wow jonathan. WOW HOW DID YOU NOT SEE ANY OF THIS COMING??? look there's steampunk Victorian stuff everywhere it's even better than she thought (it's worse) ]

Jonathan, you can come out of the bathroom now. I'd prefer to get out of here as soon as possible, so if you don't mind...

[fistofthejoestar]

[HE'S PURE AS THE DRIVEN SNOW OK HE DIDN'T REALIZE ANY OF THIS WAS COMING AT ALL

the bathroom door opens a sliver, and half an inch of Jonathan Joestar's (very flustered) face is briefly visible as he checks to make sure the coast is clear and it's actually Annie out there.

once he verifies this he wastes no time in moving - he's out the door before it can even creak, gently pushing Annie along with a hand at her shoulders. come on girl he is ready HE IS SO READY]

After you.

[lyingheart]

[ PURE AND IGNORANT ARE NOT ALWAYS EXCLUSIONARY

Either way she lets him hustle her on out because she's got no desire to stick around so wheeeee they're back in the hall and heading downstairs again and jfc Jonathan seriously? ]

Why in the world would you have even followed them home?

[fistofthejoestar]

[IT'S NOT HIS FAULT HIS FAMILY DIDN'T EDUCATE HIM ABOUT THE DANGERS OF GOING OUT AT NIGHT ALONE]

The way they phrased things made it sound a great deal more innocuous!

[lyingheart]

[ HOW DID HE SURVIVE GROWING UP ]

You went into a stranger's house and you didn't even have a back-up plan!

[ not if he's texting annie she's just calling it like it is! ]

[fistofthejoestar]

[NOBODY KNOWS]

It's not the sort of thing you need one for!

[he'd have been fine if they'd just tried to mug him or something instead of...that.]

[lyingheart]

... Yes it is.

[fistofthejoestar]

...well, it wasn't at home.

[lyingheart]

I have a hard time believing such an innocent place could really exist. Are you sure you just didn't see what you were walking blithely past?

[ SHE THINKS THAT MAY BE THE CASE ]

Either way, the trains are this way. Unless you want to escort through the porters.

[fistofthejoestar]

I can assure you that I was perfectly aware of my surroundings.

[how else could he make friends with his mugger if he didn't know where the most dangerous part of London was?]

I think that the train may be the smarter option. It gives me a little time to collect myself.

[collect himself before punching Joseph in the face again and then actually going home. yep.]

[lyingheart]

... What are you planning to do?

[ train therapy is something very different for annie, but she's not going to bring that up. ]

[fistofthejoestar]

I just need to speak with my grandson before going home. That's all.

[DON'T WORRY IT'LL TAKE LIKE FIVE MINUTES TOPS]

[lyingheart]

[ ... she snorts. ]

As you like.

[ she will never get family that is more than a passing relationship of "good girl you executed that kick just like daddy taught you, now go on, make the world your enemy, then come back home." ]
