There has been ongoing discussion of Only Friends amongst a few of us about central themes of the show and ideas Jojo seems to be exploring. We ended up in a discussion on ephemerality that led to a broader discussion on what the show is trying to say about permanency, mostly through the use of things like Boston's photography, surveillance videos, and other audio/visual means.
We also touched on the idea of voyeurism being a running theme (potentially tying back to the very public nature of queer culture in the 80's and 90's) based on the different medias being presented and the frameworks that each episode has used so far. I posited at the time that the different frameworks of each episode could be a type of voyeurism (and because we've brought up control), a type of controlled voyeurism; the voice overs, talking heads and even the Twitter posts are great for giving the audience insight into character insights, feelings and emotions but only what they want us to see.
There was also discussion in the tag about how this show feels like a throwback to sort of a late 90's aesthetic over all (I can't find this post - specifically I'm thinking of a post that mentioned OF had a very Dawson's Creek aesthetic, which hit me like a truck when I read it because YES). Given that Jojo was born in 1984, so I think this post about OF being the voice of 80's babies is right.
So, you must be asking, duh, we've already talked about this. What's your point?
All of this extremely prolific long-windedness is because I noticed something while watching the Let's Try MV from the OST as well as the BTS videos that have been released so far and I don't think anyone has mentioned it.
youtube
In the MV, shots from the show (both what appear to be canon and a smidge of BTS material) are shown like they were filmed on a mid-90's camcorder. This also happens in the in the BTS videos as well (episode 1, episode 2.)
Also, both the MV and the BTS videos have visual effects. Transitions like lens flares, static, and whatever that blippy line distortion was on VHS tapes that we fixed with the tracking buttons (if you know, you know) repeatedly show up in both.
(Please prepare yourself for some absolutely horrible screenshots; I have no skills in this area, lmao, but I wanted a couple of visuals)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(What? No, I didn't choose these three screenshots because of the colors, absolutely not. I also absolutely am not tagging @respectthepetty because of it either, nope. Don't know what you're talking about.)
But Slayerkitty, you ask, what does it mean?
It definitely shows that we're on the right track regarding this, I think, because using it in the MV and BTS materials is a very deliberate choice given the amount of photo, video, and audio focus the show has done to this point. Interestingly, you could also say the BTS videos are a type of controlled voyeurism as well, since it's a specific peek at how things were made (the view they want us to have lol).
(Also interesting but I'm not sure if it means anything or if they just thought it looked cool, but in the MV from about 2:29-2:40 and 2:52-3:10 the scenes are all "camcorder" video and the second time stamp is pretty much all BTS footage.)
(P.S. I also don't think anyone mentioned it before now, but that fluffy jacket/cardigan thing we're all obsessed with that Ray wore in episode two is what Khaotung is wearing the MV. It looks like they probably shot the episode two car scene and the MV the same day/night.)
Tagging the ephemerality squad and anyone who's posts I linked to, in case you guys have any thoughts: @waitmyturtles, @wen-kexing-apologist, @ranchthoughts, @chickenstrangers, @lurkingshan, @twig-tea, @clara-maybe-ontheroad, @distant-screaming, @shouldiusemyname
I know I forgot someone, I'm sure! Apologies if I did. I'm gonna have to make a list, lol.

It’s me back in the ask box again for another super important question:
What “cringe” fandoms would the mekadan have been into as kids. Like we know Marry was a black butler girlie but I need to know the rest. Who was deeply invested in the fnaf lore, who was cosplaying as homestuck trolls, who was shipping creepypastas. I am desperate for answers only you can provide.
EXCELENT question. i ADORE this question.
ayano is into homestuck. used to role play warrior cats. loves the marvel cinematic universe, and just any superhero comic book stuff in general. canonically into jojo.
kido's is BANDS. specifically bands considered emo back in 2013 or something. my chemical romance. blink 189. black veil brides. that was their shit. also im sorry but they were a superwholock. sorryyyyyy i also think they'd be into medical dramas like grey's anatomy and dr house LMAO
i dont think seto did or does fandoms. i think seto goes outside too much. he's the only one who has no idea what being in a fandom is like, also the least online definitely (I'll get to mary)
kano would be into youtubers/celebrities. he's so into celebrity gossip it's impossible to talk to him he knows of names youve never even heard of.
like u said mary is a black butler girlie but i guess she could like other mangas... i also think she'd watch medical dramas with kido. BUT she doesnt internet so she has no idea about any of it she just lore dumps everyone instead about any book she's reading. she finds out black butler is actually animated and forces everyone to sit down and watch it with her
momo was the one shipping creepypastas btw. i also think she's a sims girlie she's obsessed with its lore and loves making ocs in there and ends up obsessed with her own sims families (commissions haruka a bunch)
shintaro is into magical girls animes. like any of them. but i also think he'd like some popular cartoons like steven universe LOLLL he was probably furiously defending pearl online. also i think he used to make youtube poops and sparta remixes when he was like 14
haruka and takane are the fnaf lore guys especially haruka i seriously think he arrives to school one day after he stayed up all night watching fnaf lore videos and told takane all about it. they're the ones lining up for the movie rn. they also probably roleplayed undertale together in highschool. also i think takane likes analog horror which is horrible for haruka bc i think he hates horror but he's also weirdly fascinated by it so he's watching through his fingers anything takane puts on lol. they tend to share their fandoms especially in hs because haruka was furiously googling anything takane mentioned to have conversation topics with her
hiyori's obviously into idols. i think like kido she loves bands too but she's from the directioner bts stan vibes. and hibiya i LOVE to make jokes abt him being into whatever 12 year olds are into (fortnite, among us, fnaf) and seriously i do love that and i think gamer hibiya is possible with the power of him making the effort to learn to use his phone and the internet bc all his friends live far away and in the process learns abt all that. but before that he was like seto he has no idea what it feels like to be in a fandom and cannot understand hiyori's visions. he's still not SUPER online though
i loved this question. more questions like this i beg

Not-Jojo content for a hot minute! Let's talk about the Borderlands movie...
First things first, I don't know if you know this, but my nickname comes from Borderlands. Although now I only talk and draw about Jojo's, I'm still a big fan of the Borderlands games.
When I played the first game, I loved the concept about sirens, and it was back then when I started using my actual nickname (circa 2010). Then, when Borderlands 2 came out, I was obsessed with Handsome Jack. And when I say obsessed, I mean OBSESSED with huge and bold capital letters. I consider Borderlands 2 the best Borderlands game of them all, and The Pre-Sequel is a close one just because of my full Jack obsession, lol.
Keep reading for my opinion about the trailer...
I don't remember when they announced that they were making a Borderlands movie, maybe 2017-ish??? I was extremely excited, thinking that they would adapt the story of the games (back then, I think Borderlands 3 wasn't even announced, but they could have started as a trilogy...). I even fantasized about the idea of Dameon Clarke, Handsome Jack's VA in English, being Jack in the movie as well. But that dream was long gone when I read that the film would not exactly follow up the story we all know. And the wait to see something about this movie was LONG.
I finally watched the trailer when they released it, and even it's not the story I was hoping to see... I kinda like it. I didn't feel the hype I expected being a huge Borderlands fan, but I think I can still enjoy it. Some stuff from the movie feels off (like Roland's personality... he doesn't feel like Roland at all... and where are Lilith siren tattoos!?!?!?), but other stuff feels total in the style of Borderlands (people bullying Claptrap in some way is a must). The movie has its flaws, but people on Reddit keep bitching about Lilith and Tannis being too old, Roland being too short... ugh, I don't fucking care about the cast not being aesthetically perfect (but I admit that I would have liked them to). If the actors and actresses do a good job interpreting their characters and the story fits the Borderlands' universe with good humor and action, I'll consider myself lucky.
That was my impression of the trailer in English, but I'm from Spain, so the next day I watched the trailer again, but dubbed in Spanish, and... it felt way funnier! At least Tina's phrases sounded funnier for me (instead of saying "it's in my mouth!" she says "I swallowed it" lmao), and some voices suit the characters better than the original ones. Usually, it's the other way around, lol!
I think the localization will improve the movie for me, and that gives me some hope to enjoy the movie besides all the bitching on Reddit. Seriously, guys, stop complaining about people's bodies... there are other things to be criticized...
To try to introduce myself into the mood, maybe I'll do a redraw of an old Borderlands fanart... it'll be coming soon!

2, 3, 4, sips exact same questions from my last ask sure we ball
ok i’m gonna throw in 2 freebie questions 4 this one for fun, if that’s alright, apologies if it isn’t ^-^ i was just eyeing this 4 sips and thought this was a good chance.
2 . you could probably find some1 in the fandom who could ramble and rave about sips’ personality, design, vibes, etc. for DAYS. and i am no different, really. the themes of his character are being lost in the world and trying to find purpose and learning to be vulnerable and heal, which speaks to a LOT of people, as well as his personality (that is kind of infused with dingo’s humor, quirks, struggles). also the way he’s drawn, shit-eating grin and generally being a prick gets a lot of people hooked. basically, his whole design and personality pretty much, but if i had to narrow it down, i would say his special kind of defiance and general prick aura.
3 . i feel like his base design without the croc arm could be spiced up a liiittle bit more and given a few more ornaments, but that’s just me. the combo of open vest and harem pants just reminds me of aladdin lol. but who cares i’m not his character designer and its just a nitpick lmao
4 . same kind of genre as erina, aka obscure old anime. i’d give his a few more shonen elements and jttw inspiration, and a different artstyle kind of like jojo’s bizarre adventure (LOL) with more crosshatching and messier lines, more distinctive atmosphere, and draw sips very similarly to how he is in the series. the original series has a kind of storyboard feel, especially in the later episodes, and i think dull/greyscale backgrounds with some bright colors could make things more visually interesting. also psychological horror
bonus. kind of:
7 . same headcanons they give to ohio jack, which is making him trans, autistic, etc. i do enjoy the more realistic takes on his design, like making him look like a whole ass macaque cuz i think it’s fun. i’ve drawn sips w top surgery scars b4, and i think it’s a cool addition to his character. also, i really, really like that at least this part of the fandom acknowledges that he’s aroace and doesn’t really ship him and instead focuses on his friendships, which i think does his character more of a service than shipping him with gothi. bit fandom will fandom, and i have nothing against shipping, etc. in short, i like this little corner of the fandom :]]
18 . i already wrote about gothi and sips, so i’ll do a different one this time. i wouldn’t say admire like at all, but this one is rlly interesting to me (and if you’ve been looking @ this blog 4 a bit, i do mention this duo), which is xanu and sips (and also the existence of xips). they’re foils, and have so many parallels like in the way they were both experimented on, hold their friends in high regard and everyone else is suspicious to them, etc., but sips seems more aware? which is a rarity when he’s contrasted with other people and both of them bring out a less seen side of each other, with sips meeting an actual Bad Guy and being less murderous compared to him, and xanu being especially annoyed and irritated by sips and kind of enabling him. agh. they should never talk to each other again. sorry 4 the ramble
summary: hehe funny little guy

Dio Brando & Enrico Pucci
Now that I finished Stone Ocean I wanted to talk about this for a second (I’m an anime-only fan so idk anything past Part 6)
Dio Brando is definitely the most influential villain throughout the entire first 6 parts of Jojo’s - his actions in Part 1 were the foundation of everything that happened afterwards. BUT! The thing that I personally love about Dio as a villain is that he absolutely owns being a bitch. He knows he’s a villain and he rolls with it, it’s how he’s always been and he doesn’t try to hide it. His father was a piece of shit, and he himself was raised to be the same. Dio made the most of the villain life and honestly mad respect for that. Those types of villains are always the most fun tbh. Like this bitch’s influence remained 23 years after he died - that’s king shit right there LMAO
Then on the other side we have Pucci, the final villain to carry out Dio’s will. While I personally found Pucci to be super fucking annoying, I do think he was a really good villain. The thing about Pucci that made him so dangerous was the fact that, unlike Dio who owned his villainy, Pucci did not see himself as a villain. He was convinced right up until the end that what he was doing was for the happiness of humanity in the long run. It was like his own fucked up sense of salvation or something that was brought about through his idolisation of his boyfriend Dio. I think the reason Pucci pissed me off so much (other than how pretentious he was) is because of how convinced he was that he was doing a “good” thing. And tbh the fact that his characterisation was able to make me feel so angry or annoyed is a sign that he was a well written villain imo.
Buuuuut when all’s said and done Dio is always gonna be the superior Jojo’s villain - like the pillar men were fun, Kira was interesting, and Diavolo was A Time, but at the end of the day everything just comes back to Dio. What an icon.

(same anon as before)
AHHHHH I COMPLETELY FORGOT TO COMPLIMENT YOUR ART OMG!! it was actually the first thing that drew me to your blog, you are so talented!!! i’ve been learning to draw myself lately and your daru art really inspired me to draw more art that caters specifically to me, you make him look so handsome (//u_u//)
and daru in the jojo costume had me rolling LMAO why does he look so good in it?? stan a man with good taste!
those headcanons were so cute too, the moe moe kyun scene (and by extent daru’s entire sideplot to win yuki’s heart) was one of my favorite parts of zero and truly a perfect confession so why try to change perfection?
i wish you two all the best in your relationship (⁎⁍̴̛ ₃ ⁍̴̛⁎)!!
AAA THANK YOU SO MUCHHH!! 😭💕 I wish I had the proper words rn to properly be grateful but I'm just GDDGSFGH /pos Everytime I hear about people who are genuinely inspired by my work, I just get incredibly sappy because it feels surreal in a way 🥹 I'm so so happy I motivated you enough to try doing something like that for yourself! Especially if it's something that involves the hacker boy of all characters aaa / u \ It means so much the way I draw him caters to you btw, I am flattered
ALSO I KNOWWW he looks great in every outfit he wears! I could talk here for days about the many outfits that were canonically worn by him in the anime or even in spinoff media since he has a very vast wardrobe apparently! And tbh I'm all for it..
Very happy you enjoyed the headcanons too! And that sideplot in 0 was my favorite as well: for someone like me, it felt like immense fanservice because I was squealing the whole time AAA I could have come up with other scenarios but that one seemed the most accurate since it was already established I guess fhfhg Thank you so so much still for the sweet asks!! We both appreciate your wishes 🥺💕

Okay, college professor headcanons for JoJo’s Bizarre Adventures
Included characters: Dio (Part three, not vampire, fairly out of character, so sorry about that), Jonathan, Avdol, Joseph, Caesar, Polnareff with a little bit of Iggy, Kakyoin, Jotaro, and a bonus of Okuyasu, Josuke, and Koichi teaching a self-defense class to their peers (Not college profs)
Dio
He is part three in this btw, and he isn’t a vampire, I was thinking about the whole night class thing and deadass forgot he was a vampire
He teaches a night class
He teaches a criminal forensics class
No matter how many students he has at any given time, he knows them all by first and last name
He absolutely allows cussing in his class and takes full advantage of this rule
He will without a doubt notice attitude shifts in his students and will be fairly straightforward about it in his office after asking them to stay for a while after class or after they’re done with classes for the day to talk to them about it
He’s the cool professor
He only refers to students by their last name if he’s mad at them
He has his students skip titles and just call him Dio
He has helped students remove smell from their cars after someone left food in it and they didn’t know and it ended up rotting, or if they had stoner friends they had to pick up
It doesn’t matter if they aren’t in his class he’ll help them
He takes time out of his night/morning to help his students
He shows up about 5 or so hours before school starts and allows students who live in noisy ares to come in to sleep, he sets up pillows and everything
It doesn’t matter if he isn’t their first class he still lets them come in
Basically as far from canon Dio as you can get, just with appearance and accent, along with a few tendencies to snap at his students
He brings in meals on exam days because he knows students skip meals
Jonathan
You’ll literally never get lighter homework in any other class (Besides maybe Joseph)
He doesn’t allow cussing, he won’t report you for it. but will scold you, which normally gets anyone to stop, because no one wants to upset this man, he’s too nice to his students
He will report his students for any form of slurs, and that is the only time he will get angry unless one student is actively attacking another verbally or physically
He has stepped in front of a student in the parking lot who was being mugged and just knocked the mugger on their ass
Constantly jokingly butting heads with the criminal forensics teacher, sometimes gets heated between the two
They’re step siblings
Very few students know this
He’s a ELA (English language arts) teacher
MASSIVE golden retriever vibes, super energetic, loves his students, is the kind of man who would take one of his student’s secrets to the grave (As long as it wasn’t something like self harm or being a victim of a crime)
An absolute lumbering machine of a man, he seems imposing at first, until he breaks out into a smile and laying down the few ground rules, telling his students to feel free to talk to him about anything bugging them
Much like his brother, he brings in meals on exam days
He will fall, no if about it, it’s an inevitable thing, all of his students will see it at some point
The room normally erupts into chaos of running around and picking up his papers and freaking out about whether or not he’s okay until he looks up and is just an absolute blushing mess and he’s laughing
After the first time people still help pick up papers but it isn’t as chaotic
This man is so understanding about late work
He encouraged an enby (Born female) to get their hair cut to a mullet and made a 360 video for them to show to their barber
Absolutely would understand anything his students were going through or would at least try his best
He will hug his students if they’re having a rough time  
Can be counted on to extend due dates unreasonable amounts for large projects
Avdol
Stickler about late work
He does love his students, but for every 3 school days something is late, a point gets marked off
Unless you have good reason
Is a recreational class on astrology and other forms of psychic readings (I have no doubt that’s a class, my sister almost took a class on the history of James Bond)
He also brings in tea for his students daily
Will talk to his students if he sees them in public
Widely loved by students
Amazingly attuned with his students
Not many other details that stand out about him
Joseph
He’s that one guy that no one is really sure what he teaches
The presentations from student projects end up being the kinds that end up being iconic(?) images like the “How I lost my virginity to a mint cookie” thing, because no one knows what the presentations are supposed to be on
It’s harder to fail than it is to pass, seeing as if you forget to turn something in you have to remind him to mark it as missing, otherwise it just sits as not turned in, not as late, so it won’t affect your grade
He shows a lot of movies in class
Brought in a gaming system once and held a tourney amongst the students in all of his classes
There isn’t a single student who doesn’t like him
Caesar 
Cooking class
Lets his students eat what they cook after the taste test for grading
Is often brought flowers by his students after they inevitably find out his love for the colorful displays
Let’s be quite honest, we know Joseph is the one that exposes this
The two of them have a running joke of bringing each other jokingly “romantic” gifts as a show of their friendship
He was at first quite uncomfortable with the students bringing him flowers as it is generally quite a, romantic I could say, gesture (Funny lil’ side note, I was a weird child, apparently I thought as like, a 4 yr old I would have multiple husbands, and this guy that’s like, 7 or so years older than me was one of them, apparently planned to be the last???? I dunno lmao, but he brought me flowers because it’s now a running joke and we’re now sorta friends, anyways, he brought me flowers when I was 9, at least I think I was 9, but his girlfriend got mad???? Like hun, I'm not going to steal your man) until he started getting notes in them (Will post those in a later post)
He blushes very heavily upon receiving the flowers, any blush at all is extremely prevalent and he gets flustered and very happy upon receiving the flowers, his students have likened him to a blushing schoolboy
Has a fondness for paintings of nature, which have also been brought in as gifts by students, and they all get hung on his wall, which is always a great surprise to the students that paint them.
Polnareff
He teaches French
He brings in pastries
Very comedic
I don’t really know what else besides he's just a friend more so than a teacher to all of his students
He definitely brings in Iggy frequently, though he makes sure to keep the coffee gum accessible to himself, but not where Iggy could easily get to it
All of his students love Iggy
Iggy will curl up in students’ laps if he likes them enough
Kakyoin
He teaches a history of gaming
Tournies in his class
He’s a bruh dud, just a friend more so than he is a teacher
Doesn’t give two fucks about late work policy cause there is rarely ever any late work from his students
I dunno, his students bring him a bunch of cherry stuff lol, a mini bean bag that looks like a cherry, cherry pastries, cherries grown by the students, maraschino cherries, even a hat that looked like a cherry
Jotaro (Part 4 Jotaro)
Marine biology, duh
An absolute hardass
Half points for late work unless you have a damn good excuse
A student brought him a dolphin stuffed animal once, and Star Platinum broke out in happy tears (No stand using students) while Jotaro kept his composure, although he did crack a smile
Deadass takes students on aquarium trips I shit you not
Secretly loves all of his students
Most of his students love him
Bonus
Okuyasu, Josuke, Koichi, all canon age of part 4, not college profs
Self-defense classes
Open to any gender
Very kind but firm
Okuyasu either makes people laugh or cry or confused
Koichi normally comforts the people who end up crying
Josuke heals everyone up after sparring matches and is also a sparring partner to many
Tomoko may pop in every so often for some harassment tips to the participants

Choose Your Own Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: I "Cattivi Ragazzi" Con I Cuori Buoni
yes I speak a little italian (not well but i still know some things plus i mainly understand it cuz i speak spanish)
if you speak italian, just pretend like you dont for a sec lmao
you guys are good students for wanting to get your homework i deadass wouldve just went to the sports room to meet my homies oilakmwfeds but we’ll meet them later (possibly)
title translation: the “bad boys” with good hearts
lets get it
previous 
masterlist 
next
YOU CHOSE: GO TO THE TEACHERS!
Despite wanting to get some much needed rest, you drag your feet towards the school building to retrieve your homework from the classes you missed. You spot Rohan in the courtyard. He looks up from his sketchpad to see you staring at him, resulting in him scoffing and looking back down at the paper. You roll your eyes, making your way to your classes (with help, of course). After 45 minuets of going class to class and apologizing to your teachers and lying explaining why you missed your first day, you finally make it to your final class. 
You aren’t sure why, but you felt compelled to take Italian. After all, it is one of the languages of love, and your lonely ass could really use some loving (in the least sexual way possible cuz no). Upon opening the door, you realize the class was pretty much empty. There are no teachers or students in the room, which you deem odd considering the fact that it is currently office hours. You’re about to turn around and leave when you bump into someone behind you, causing them to drop whatever they were holding. You down to see a boy around your age picking up the now broken pieces of a flowerpot. 
“Holy shit! I’m so sorry!” You gasp, crouching down to help him clean up. You see him holding the flower that was in the pot, almost cradling it as if it were a child. Your heart squeezes at this sight. ‘ohmyfuckinggodhesadorable’. You shake your head at the thought, trying to focus on cleaning.
“Mi dispiace, avrei dovuto cercare dove stavo andando. Volevo solo mettere questo fiore vicino alla finestra in modo che potesse ottenere un po 'di luce” He chuckles, looking at you with a kind smile. 
“....huh?”
Sure, you signed up to take Italian, but you didn’t think that the people in your grade would be so advanced already! You begin to regret skipping classes today until he speaks up. “Ah! Force of habit. I’m from Italy so my go to language is Italian. I’m still getting used to having to speak English. (just pretend) My name is Giorno Giovanna and I’m a freshman. Nice to meet you!” He says, extending his hand out to you. “Y/N L/N! Nice to meet you too, Giorno!” You shake his hand. “Oh by the way... what was it you were saying before?” You asked. “I just said that I wanted to put this flower by the window so it could get some light and I wasn’t watching where I was going. Sorry about that!” He says. You continue having a friendly conversation with Giorno before you realize that office hours had ended.
“Look at the time! It’s already 6:00.” He sighs, clearly sad that the conversation had ended. You’re upset too! You enjoyed talking to Giorno. As if on cue, your stomach growled loudly, resulting in Giorno turning his attention back to you. “Are you hungry?” He asks, like it isn’t the most obvious thing in the world. “Yeah, I am. I didn’t have a chance to eat lunch.” You sigh, upset because this school is supposed to have some of the best food. “Do you want to come with me to the cafeteria to have dinner with some of my friends? I promise they’re nice.” He offers. You immediately agree, because who would decline good food?
When you arrive at the cafeteria, you realize that it’s strangely empty. You overhear some of the younger students whispering about a supposed “gang” being inside. You’re a little frightened, but you see that Giorno remains the unbothered king that he is, so your nerves are settled. You spot a group of boys sitting at a table at the far end of the room. You follow Giorno as he walks over to them. A boy who appears to be a sophomore’s face lights up when he sees Giorno walking towards them. “Giorno! Non ti ho visto tutto il giorno!” Giorno! I haven’t seen you all day! Giorno clears his throat, gesturing to you, implying that you don’t speak Italian. “Oh ok! Hi, my name is Narancia Ghirga and I’m a sophomore. Nice to meetcha!” He beams, looking up at you from his chair. You go around the table, meeting the rest of the group. There was a man who had an irrational fear of the number four named Mista, a guy who was dressed like a piece of cheese named Fugo, an emo bitch who didn’t like Giorno named Abbacchio, and a guy who somehow reminds you of your mother named Bucciarati. There was a girl that was supposed to be there too but she couldn’t make it. 
You get your food and sit back down at the table where you’re faced with a heated debate between Narancia and Fugo about the answer to a math problem that they were working on. Narancia said the answer was D, none of the above, to which Fugo tried to explain that it wasn’t a multiple choice question. You laughed along with the rest of the group before you feel a shiver go down your spine. You turn around to see a group of girls glaring at the people at your table. “Hey... I’ve been meaning to ask. What’s with this ‘gang’ that everyone is talking about?” You question, looking to Bucciarati for an answer. He sees how serious you look and pauses. You begin to expect the worst before he begins to laugh, the rest of the boys joining in.
“Y-you really believe that stuff?” Narancia asks between breaths from laughing so hard. “Y/N, we aren’t a gang! Everyone just kinda assumed we were mafioso when we arrived at this school. If you’re looking for a group of bad boys, you’re with the wrong group of people.” Fugo chuckles.”Although La Squadra could be considered a gang, pieces of shit.” Abbacchio mutters. “What was that?” You ask, turning to face Abbacchio. “Forget it. It’s not important. I’m going to the dorms to get some rest. See you guys around” He says, getting up from the table. The rest of the boys excuse themselves as well, leaving you and Giorno alone at the table.
“I had fun with you Y/N! The guys seem to really like you.” Giorno says with a smile, picking up his dishes and clearing them. “I had fun too! I hope we see each other soon!” You exclaim. “I’m going to go back to the dorms now. Do you want me to walk you there? I’m assuming you don’t know where you’re going.” He says, lightly chuckling. You giggle with him. “Yeah, I have no clue where the dorms are.” You say, slightly embarrassed. “So do you want me to take you there?”  He asks, again.
“umm....”
MAKE YOUR CHOICE!
1. GO WITH GIORNO
2. GO BY YOURSELF
COMMENT YOUR CHOICE IN THE COMMENTS! HOPE YOU ENJOYED THIS CHAPTER!
xoxo, dylan!

Due to being the most incompetent popularity sim the world has ever laid eyes on, as well as having a miserable personality, Shajar has been near aspiration failure for the entire freshman year. Now that we’re out of the dorms it seems the least I can do is fulfil her wish to throw a toga party, even though I’ve sworn off college parties since the Gunther Brittany Affair Disaster of 2017.
Tumblr media
Most of the people we invited wisely elected not to attend, but thankfully Culturally Appropriating Drama Professor is here, with whom, you guessed it..
Tumblr media
..Cyneswith has 3 bolts! Well we all knew that thanks to her disturbing grey hair turn on college would be the time that we would knock out at least 10 of the 20 simultaneous lovers she aspires to have. 
Tumblr media
Boy, that escalated quickly. Also that professor literally looks like a male Rachel Dolezal. 
Tumblr media
-Congratulations on falling in love with Ti-Ning right after he randomly made out with Gross Hippie Dude, Frances!
SHAJAR!!!
-What?! I’m just trying to make polite conversation, it’s called being a good host!
Tumblr media
EW. I can’t believe we’re gonna have to fall in love with this creep. God, Cyneswith, why couldn’t you get a different hair color turn-on??
Tumblr media
At least Cyneswith and CADP (Culturally Appropriating Drama Prof, I’m not learning his name) are singlehandedly saving this lame party’s score, because everyone else is being a giant flop:
Tumblr media
A) Gossip about Gunther from literally 30 years ago, talk about scalding hot tea. 
Tumblr media
B) Literally asleep, which is what I would do during this party as well. Relatable king Don.
-Man, I had a terrible nightmare that Cyneswith was cheating on me with Rachel Dolezal!
What nonsense! Just keep sleeping with your back turned to that window.
Tumblr media
🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
Tumblr media
C) Bullying Mickey Dosser to tears for no discernible reason. Or maybe because Shajar is into him and we’re getting a little jealous
-AS IF! Jealousy is a trait of cucks and weaklings! I just enjoy the pain of others!
Yea, and my pain most of all clearly!
Tumblr media
I had Cyneswith ask CADP out during the party so we could maximize her aspiration point earnings and the guy seriously hits us with ‘maybe we should go out again some other time’, like he has a ton of hot undergrads throwing themselves at him but he’ll see if he can make time for us. God I hate him. 
Tumblr media
We end the party while we’re ahead aka before Sophie’s bullying tanks our score, and Shajar is finally semi-content and will hopefully stfu with her whining for the time being. Good job, Cyneswith!
Tumblr media
Right after the party a sports mania appears to have overtaken the house. First we have Frances of all people intently watching football, lmao. Secondly, wanna guess who rolled the want to get fit? Wanna guess??
Tumblr media
Why Sophie you sly little vixen, I knew it! I knew somewhere deep down you were into Shajar!!
-For your information, BITCH, it’s because sports is my one true hobby!
LOL sure, sure.. I mean it actually is your one true hobby but I’m going to interpret it how it suits me.
Tumblr media
Also boy are you bad at it. 
-Not for long! I’ll keep going! I’m gonna be the very best, like no one ever was! 
Ok well you should rest a little, you don’t need to become fit the very same night you rolled the want, who cares?
-I care! I can do it! I’m so close!
Tumblr media
Yea I’m thinking I should have stopped you sooner and maybe working out for hours on end in the desert was not a great idea.
-Nonsense! Sophie Miguel knows no fatigue! Sophie Miguel knows no pain!! On an unrelated note, I’m just gonna lie down here real quick.
Tumblr media
Ok so this was the closest I’ve come to a sim legit dying this run, like it’s all fun and games now but while it was happening I was freaking out. We don’t have the Reaper phone we stole from the secret society in the UUU house anymore, Jojo took it with him when he graduated, so it was seriously looking like this was it for Sophie. 
Tumblr media
The night came..
Tumblr media
..the night went..
Tumblr media
..the repairman came..
Tumblr media
..Sophie’s hunger need went..
Tumblr media
..the afternoon came and with it the idiot mascot who clearly can’t feel a room..
Tumblr media
..the night came AGAIN and that’s when Sophie woke up, literally a full 24 hours later. WTF. I’ve never had a sim passed out this long, I was losing my shit.
-But I’m ripped now and that’s all that matters!!!
Tumblr media
Yea you’re also about to die, your hunger need is vermillion red!!! Run to the kitchen Sophie, RUN LIKE THE WIND
Tumblr media
WE DON’T HAVE TIME FOR THIS. WE ALSO DON’T HAVE ANY FOOD READY, FML, those savages absolutely devoured the pizza. 
Tumblr media
An instant meal is thankfully enough to stave off death for a while. I have one of the other flops order a pizza and send Sophie to take a shower to drop her temperature- 
Tumblr media
-which was a horrible call because I *assumed* that when sims are suffering from heat stroke they take cold showers, but that turns out to not be the case so I make it even worse!!! The mascot of death is looming like a vulture, waiting to cheer over Sophie’s dead body. FUCK OFF
Tumblr media
The pizza finally arrives and Sophie takes one bite of a slice, leaves it on the counter, AND PASSES OUT AGAIN. At this point I have literally never wanted to cheat more my entire life.
Tumblr media
-Well I say, my good woman, it looks like Sophie has fainted and is about to die!
-Oh well, more screentime for us!
Why do you two losers have heatstroke too, you haven’t done anything all day? Wtf is this, a localized heatstroke outbreak in this house only??
Tumblr media
Finally, after what was the most this game has stressed me out in years, I get Sophie to bed, safe, sound, and mostly alive. I’m also instituting a house-wide ban on working out, it’s clearly an evil practice that causes nothing but woe. 
Tumblr media
Here, chubby heat-stroke-desert penguin agrees!

can you explain that jojo "this one sparks/does not spark joy" thing? i do not know the context but i want to
This ended up being longer than I intended to write and also has some yucky themes in it so I'm putting it under a cut, but
(edit) ALSO, I can see how that post may be seen as a “this one sparks joy because its all dudes” and “this one does not spark joy because its women” but thats absolutely not what its about- I hope no one takes it to mean that.  It’s that comic spinoff #1 is really rich in story and has returning characters we are all excited to see and #2 is a garbage porn fest lmao  
SO ok- two spinoff comics were announced and have been highly anticipated, one of which stars two characters who would NEVER be associated with each other and the entire fanbase was beside itself with excitement for what we could only imagine was gonna be the wackiest shit ever, because both of them are dumbasses- one is a teen with a heart of gold and the other is a morally questionable (but sometimes ok) cOWBOY?? who used to be one of the bad guys- but like one of the ones who you could always picture switching sides and reluctantly joining up with the good guys (and whose stand is just literally a fucking gun LMAO). So far the first chapter is absolutely AMAZING and is going into the backstories of a bunch of the supporting villain characters from part 3 and exploring their mental states after their leader was defeated and the ptsd they have from how they were extorted and controlled by him. And we are all super hyped to see these characters again and to get more content of them and explorations of their past. The art style is really solid and obviously took a lot of care, and for the most part - aside from Mariah who is known to be a female character that enjoys showing off her body, the women are drawn pretty respectfully. It might be weird to mention this out of nowhere but like- it matters when you get into the OTHER manga that came out this month... ugh I have not READ the other one but from the little bit I read about it, its a one shot about an OC artist that uses Jolyne (A PRISONER IN A PRISON?) as inspiration for her fuckin PORN art? idk man- it seems hella sus, and apparently its trashy as all get out- you can kinda tell by how they draw Jolyne on the main cover that its gonna be super creepy... the main character has a stand that controls the mood of people she draws and she gets obsessed with Jolyne and yeah you can see where this is going.... some creepy stalkery rapey shit ensues. Its literally just horrible fanmade porn that somehow got published as a real spinoff and we (the jojo fans i care to associate myself with at least LMAO) are all over here getting nauseous about what a mess it is. I haven't read it because the synopsis I saw sounded super offputting and the art style makes Jolyne look like shes 12... and just NO, no, a million times no. I made the mistake of looking into it a bit more so I would be able to answer this ask (don't feel bad, I just didn't want to trash talk something I didn't know much about) and also IM SO MAD that they had the NERVE to use Lady Gaga's song Bad Romance as the namesake for the creepy artist stand's name. What a waste bruh...
Anyway yeah- like not to say you cant read it and like- idk get your grim jollies in private but it sounds super yikes and its a mess. Another case of like, yeah I know its fiction and just for fun but hoo boy it just doesn't seem right.
this has been rai's jojo recap, have a nice day LOL

many many anons under the cut bc i didn’t want anyone to feel like i was ignoring them and i wanted to respond to u all! warning for small text too, it was so long i wanted to make it look smaller fgbnjkgkjn
Anonymous asked: NAT... you can write WHATEVER you want! It's your blog, and I hope that rude anons can learn to respect that. I used to be on your blog just for jjba content too, so when you started getting into jjk I was indifferent but eventually you dragged me into jjk so hard!! I already like bnha, so seeing you write for it only made me happier! I hope that you continue to write whatever make YOU happy:) ❤and yes, longer fics certainly doesnt mean it's better, quality over quantity
ahh i’m happy that you are here for all three!! i always feel so accomplished when someone is like ‘your constant screaming made me think about jjk <3′. all three of the fandoms are fairly popular and i tag everything v carefully so i hope people who do use the filtering find that useful!!! 
Anonymous asked: Goodness gracious. People really be out there thinking they're entitled to dictating what kind of content you should be making
i think part of it might be that i do take requests so people feel like they have like . . . a certain right to certain kinds of my content? i take requests mostly bc they keep me motivated, i like making content for ppl who cant find what they want bc i’ve Been There, but maybe people think i am a pushover? idk i am just trying to have a good time!!!
Anonymous asked: Hi. I only started following you a few days ago but please ignore that rude anon. People are so fucking entitled towards writers it's insane. I recently had someone throw a fit for "spoiling" something in my fanfic, even though the fic was about a manga-exclusive character, so what did they expect?? Overall I've really enjoyed your writing so random assholes coming to guilt you is just a shitty thing that happens. Keep going with what you wanna do.
ah gosh anon i’m sorry about that :(. i’m always super careful tagging spoilers and stuff but like, if someone clicks on a fic about say, naoya or the steel ball run boys and is mad that i spoil something they havent found out yet . . . yeah thats on them fgbnkjgfkjn
Anonymous asked: That...that anon had the nerve to say "we". The fuck?! No no no anon, YOU'RE the only one talking and you're just talking for yourself, don't you dare try and lump us other anons/followers up with you to make yourself look like you're right. We love you nat and we appreciate you. It's your blog, you're allowed to write about whoever and whatever. This brain dead anon just needs to either go read someone else if they're that salty or write their own stuff if they're that impatient.
gosh i WISH some of my mad anons would just write their own stuff honestly. idk if this anon thought they were talking for everybody but i guess they expected anons to agree with them and not be mad at them. i appreciate u anon ;_;
Anonymous asked: Just want to say that ily and you’re one of the best jojo fanfic writers in my opinion 💗 I don’t think you’re half assing jojo fics and there’s absolutely nothing wrong with you being multi fandom. A lot of jojo blogs have started posting about jjk so it’s not as if you’re the only one. I’m not sure why you get hate like this but I think it’s just because you’re one of the popular writers and that makes people bitter for whatever reason. Keep being you and posting about the things that make you happy 💕
honestly after so long writing for jojo - i’ve written well over 200 jojo reader insert fics - sometimes it feels like i’m retreading stuff, and that’s when i take a break bc i dont wanna half-ass stuff!!! i love all of my fellow jojo friends who are posting about jjk too, i appreciate them <3. 
Anonymous asked: Hey my dude, ur writing has really grown since the jojo days and its better and awesome seeing u become happier to branch off and write in different fandoms 🤌🤌 those stupid anons are just boring farts that couldnt be bothered making their own content 😤😤 is it possible to block them to ease ur mind?
hello anon!! i run a statcounter for IPs but it doesnt always work for ppl who access through the tumblr app, i don’t think; a lot of the anon hate i get i just use the ‘block’ option, but last night got to me because i’ve been getting that kind of writer a lot which is . . . a bad look for the jojo fandom who are, as a whole from the ones i’ve interacted with, lovely!!! <3
Anonymous asked: People often forget, the person behind art or writing, is just another regular fan. You deserve to be happy with what you create and we should be thankful you share your talent with us. You also have right to change your main interests, and it's very normal thing. Jojo is one of the MANY things that you write for and all you get from that is a like or share. Its not your job. It's your fun thing to do, in spare time. You haven't betrayed anybody. That person was just rude, selfish and bored.
i am just a person doing my best!!! anime fanfic is one of many interests i have and i already devote a lot of time to it honestly, i love when people tell me they’ve enjoyed something i made bc it makes it feel worthwhile but equally it gets to me a lot when people are rude because i am usually trying my hardest. 
Anonymous asked: Bro that jjba anon... the entitlement🤮 Fam, you write whatever you want to write😤 -Saturday
dfnjbkjnkgf i find most fic readers are NOT entitled at all and are just grateful but when they are . . . oof. 
Anonymous asked: It's funny how people throw "we got you popular" and they think you start apologize and cry. Your writing and passion made you gain few numbers on a follow counter, nothing more. I think I'm too old for stuff like this, we are nothing more, but +1 on a number scale. You ow us nothing, we ow you nothing. Popular... Funny word. You just write for fun of it, fake scenarios about someone's manga characters. It's not that deep. Have fun and don't listen to people like this. I knew it's not that easy, but they are really not that important as they think they are.
extremely fun fact for people who think ‘popularity’ is important to me: i would 100% rather have 10 people who regularly comment, reblog my fics with tags and interact with me than 100 people who read my fic and either leave a like or simply move on. i think this is true for the VAST MAJORITY of writers tbh. i’m glad that people think i am a ‘popular’ blog (i am not in the grand scheme of things, one of my ex-best friends used to run a kpop reader insert blog with like 30,000 followers) bc it gives me an ego boost lmao, but i really just want people to read and enjoy the stuff i write!!! 
Anonymous asked: I followed you a while ago for jojo and when my friends started getting into jjk i was like...eh sounds like work...but now that I see you writing for it I feel really motivated to get into it!!! I really enjoy your writing and I want to be able to read the new stuff too!
ah anon i really hope you like it!!! it’s only one season rn if u wanna watch the anime and there isn’t too much of the manga to catch up on either but it is a lot of fun and it’s nice to be in a fandom that’s like, excited about a new chapter and new plot developments every week!
Anonymous asked: Pls dont reply if u dont want to! <3 I'm not sure if this will be of any help to you or not but this is the kind of thing that often helps me and is the only way I know to try comfort others so I wanted to give it a go~
Now im not gonna say 'dont feel bad pls' bc I know that's not really useful but what I do think is useful is just discussing why that anon and many others feel the need to respond that way. As someone who follows a lot of writing blogs myself and have done for a long time, i've seen my handful of favourite writers come and go for different reasons, lose motivation for a while, gain motivation for a while, go from multi to single fandom, or single fandom to multi. Often times as a reader it can be upsetting when things change but it's also important as a reader to understand that some things aren't in anyone's control, I can't control what my favourite writers become a fan of or lose interest of, I can't control things in their personal lives that may motivate or demotivate them to write, but what I can do is support them as long as they're active, and if they move on to do things i'm no longer interested in or i'm the one that changed interests, rather than being upset that they're evolving to do other things or that they're not evolving with me, I think it's important that I still feel thankful for the works that I enjoyed while we were still on the same page and this is how I personally deal with those negative feelings. I think the anons that lash out at you probably just dont know what to do with themselves, maybe they got attached to your works while you were still only a jjba blog and now that you're evolving they're upset, while I understand how they feel, they're going the completely wrong way about it. I've learned to take these things and turn them into something positive for myself or at least something bittersweet that I can move on from but the anons that lash out at you for whatever reason probably haven't learned this yet. Maybe it's because i've moved on and changed interests a lot myself that I know how these things go for both writers and readers but those anons maybe haven't experienced this as much so they dont know what to do with themselves other than complain that you've changed and throw insults at you in an attempt to get you to revert back. None of this is because of the quality of your writing like they want you to believe, it's literally just because you've evolved and while some of your old followers might not like the new content for no reason other than it not being their cup of tea, it's definitely not regressed at all. You are pumping out a lot of content right now but every single thing i've read has just been better than the last. Things that really stand out to me is how well you get characterisation down to a T and all of your dialogue is just on point and from the pov of a reader I think those things seem the hardest to get right so I am such a huge fan of your stuff at the moment and I can tell you're really putting so much thought and care into each and every fic no matter how fast you're producing it, I think the fact that you're also proud of what you're writing at the moment really shines through as well and I just adore the passion that radiates from every completed request as well as in the responses for the subsequent thirsts resulting from these works that appear in your ask box later (I know i've sent quite a few by now~)
Just to be clear i'm not defending those anons in any way, while I can understand what they might be feeling/why they're reacting in the way they are I still believe it's just so immature to be hateful online point blank. Even during a time where I still got upset with writers if they started doing something else I still never targeted that negativity directly to the writer and sending rude or hateful comments whether on anon or not never something i'd stooped low enough to do even when I still had an immature way of thinking, however, I hope that it might make it a little easier to brush them off if we try and understand what they're really upset about, and that they're just putting the blame for their negative feelings onto the wrong thing rather than coming to terms with change themselves.
hello anon!! i appreciate the long message. i do feel bad for people who have no interest in what i’m currently producing and i get that they feel upset about it; i’ve watched a lot of fellow jojo writers move on completely or just stop posting, honestly. this kind of thing is why i was so intense about asking people if it would be better if i made a separate blog but the resounding answer seemed to be ‘i’m just vibing with whatever happens and i’ll block tags as needed’. 
i often return to works by my favourite reader-insert writers who no longer write for the fandoms i like (and i read stuff bc it sounds interesting or i trust the person who writes it), but change can be difficult and i guess at this point i’ve - whether u like me or not lmao - been a fixture in jojo reader-insert tumblr for a While so it’s probably kind of jarring. 
anyway i really appreciate you and the nice words! <3 
Anonymous asked: hi nat! I just wanted to pop in and say that regardless of what fandom you write for, the love and care you pour into your writing and into interacting with followers who care about your work as well is really obvious. you're doing this for FREE and people should appreciate what you've given us so far, since ultimately this blog should be for you, whatever that means to you at any point in time. it's ok to jump fandoms! the important thing is that you feel good about what you're producing and that it makes you happy. everyone else is just a bonus - but, seeing you on my dash certainly makes me happy : ) I hope you feel better soon!
thank you anon! i’m feeling much better and happier today. birthdays are very difficult for me (i did not think i’d be alive at eighteen, much less 25!) so this event is definitely kind of a way for me to concentrate on something else, and i’m a little bit extra sensitive atm. i appreciate you so much, thank you for the kind words!!! <3
Anonymous asked: Hello! I just wanted to say, write what YOU want and make YOUR writings as long as you'd like. 💖 To the anon who is like "We mAdE yOu FaMoUs dOnt HalF asS iT" stfu, let people do what they wanna do. If you think they half do it, write something better and longer you asshat.
this is an open invitiation to that anon to send me a link to their writing blog and i’ll hype them up i promise <3 
Anonymous asked: nat i'm so so sorry about that ask please know that your older followers don't share the same opinion :( sometimes people forget about the living, breathing person behind the screen smh. you are not a machine. you absolutely should not restrict yourself to posting about one fandom forever. yes, we're first pulled in by your amazing content, but we stay for your wonderful personality and work ethic. please just keep being you, taking up projects you feel comfy with! <333 bless u
ahh thank u anon! unfortunately i actually am a writing robot, i’m sorry u had to find out this way. my jojo chip has been removed, please send it back so i can continue to not half-ass my jojo work. fgnjkbgjkfn thank you so much angel!!! i appreciate you ;_;.
Anonymous asked: i don’t think it’s fair for other people to say shit about what you choose to write about because on tumblr and other writing platforms, writers are constantly developing how they write and the fandoms that they write for. it’s not fair for someone to criticize that “you don’t care about jjba blah blah blah” because you can enjoy new shows/manga. and like you said you’ve grown so much!! proud of you nat and im glad that ive been able to read your works (sincerely other nat)
i am STILL waiting for you to come and fight me other nat fgnjkbnf. it’s nice to be enjoying different things! i am constantly learning new things and reading new works and making new friends and improving and i think that’s important. i do care about jjba - a lot! but i can care about other things too! <3 
Anonymous asked: I may not be one of your oldest followers, but i've been here for almost 3 years. Yes, i started following u for ur jojo content, but let me tell u, ur newfound motivation and enthusiam for other fandoms was honestly contagiuos for me. And i say this as a person who finds very difficult to move from one interest to another. Jojo is great, but so are other fandoms. Please don't let some faceless scum rob u that motivation. This is ur blog and u r always free to write whatever u want.
honestly, i have been there! i am autistic and i have special interests and watching other people move on to stuff i’m not vibing with has made me sad in the past, but i want people to be happy more than anything and sometimes that means new things and change! <3 
Anonymous asked: Hi Nat! I saw that rude anon message & I just wanted to pop in & say that they're wrong. You're not betraying anyone & you should write whatever it is you want to write. I followed you for jojo & I'm not familiar with the other fandoms that you write for, but personally it makes me SO happy to see you enjoying new things! It's always good to find joy wherever you can, so keep writing what you're interested in. There a lot of ppl who want to see you happy and healthy <3
honestly the idea of it being a GRAND BETRAYAL is so funny, i am just writing anime fanfic here and thriving!!! tysm anon! <3
Anonymous asked: Those anons can piss off! They have no right to judge how long or how short your writing is. If they want longer content write it their damn selves. I think your writing has improved wonderfully and I originally followed for Jojo and I'm enjoying all the content period. I don't even watch jujutsu ( not my cup of tea personally) but I love seeing the creativity and the interactions. You write what makes you happy Nat and that's on that! You don't owe anybody anything! I know how hard writing is and when your consuming new content it's hard to make content for something else. That doesn't mean you don't like it any more your just doing something different for a while. Love you and your content and I'm enjoying the love your putting into your content whether long or short. ♥♥💕 Sending love your way!
honestly my idea of ‘short content’ is still over 1k words, i’m not good at reeling myself in! i guess it’s bc they see like, 1.5k jojo fic versus 5k jjk fic but it’s not that i didn’t enjoy the first fic, just that the point and the story came a lot quicker and so did the natural end! thank you anon, i appreciate you ;_; 
Anonymous asked: Hello! Just wanted to let your know that I think your writing is awesome, and that you should write for whoever and for whatever you want to! You dont have to stay loyal to one fandom or anything, and your followers shouldn't expect that from you! It's not like they are paying you to write, you are doing this for free, and because you enjoy it and it makes you happy! If they dont like your stuff, they dont have to follow you, they can go to other blogs that cater to their taste, and they definitely don't need to be sending you such hurtful comments, and they dont get to make you feel sad about your writing! Just because they followed you during your earlier stages of writing, doesn't mean you owe them some type of loyalty or compensation! You can write literally whatever you want as long as it makes you happy! That's what your hobby and your blog are for! I hope you know that alot of your followers love your work and think that you are an amazing writer and are down to support the work that makes you happiest! 💖💖
ahh thank you so much anon!!! i am always so bowled over by how many people are nice to me when something like this happens, i am sending you my love <3
Anonymous asked: don’t listen to them!! we love you as a writer no matter what you write, because you’re a good person and a talented writer!! you shouldn’t have to change what you write to please a bitter person, and if they only want jjba, they can go to another blog instead of bringing you down. you’re doing amazing and they should be thankful you grace us with your talents!!
to be totally honest, if i was half-assing or not vibing with content i was making i just. wouldn’t post it. like you’d be able to TELL when i was half-assing stuff just to get words out (source: i have re-read my own nanowrimo works). there are lots of great jjba blogs who could do with more followers n interaction!!! i hope they do find them and i hope they’re nice to them :(. 
Anonymous asked: Please don’t pay attention to that anon. People only have that confidence when they have anon turned on. Them looking through your blog despite feeling that way is peak fan behavior and speaks to how addicting your writing is. Naturally, you can’t please everyone and there will be people who are irrational and feel entitled to tell you what to do or what to write no matter what. Trust me when I say they’re a small minority and are more likely probably passing viewers rather than regulars. I check your blog about three or more times a day because I love reading not just your fics but also your takes, banter with other anons, or even random updates. Brainrot posts? LOVE TO SEE IT!!! Desk update? AMAZING!!! With that being said, don’t feel pressured to continue pushing out content for others. Write what makes you happy! You’ve been writing for JJBA for 4 years and it’s completely normal + healthy to get into new media. I’m not sure if it would mean much, but your love for JJK has gotten me excited to start it too!!
anon i really hope you enjoy it!!! sometimes these anons remember stuff i’ve posted and said better than i do tbh, i am living in their heads rent free i guess! 
Anonymous asked: I've been following you for a couple of years and honestly it would always be a joy to see when you posted. Your writing has improved and I'm very happy you're enjoying yourself ! I know it hurts hearing and seeing stuff like that but I'm happy you're here. I'm honestly blessed everytime you post. Your writing is phenomenal. I love reading it even if its characters that I dont care for. You capture their essences so well and weave an amazing tale within the prompts and whatnot. You're amazing nat!
wehh thank you so much!!! re: the improvement, i really don’t feel like it has and then i re-read something i wrote when i first started and i’m like oh my god maybe it has. did i really write about jotaro acting like that. 
Anonymous asked: Hi Nat. I recently became a follower of yours and I'm really saddened to see you get hate. You seem like a genuinely sweet person with amazing talent! I'm a writer myself and, unfortunately, get the same kind of comments. And when you get those comments, it doesn't leave you feeling motivated. People need to understand that people can and will, at times, grow out of fandoms. (1 Not just that but you're doing all of this for free. Again, I'm sorry you got such a comment. But please know that I'm proud of how far you've come. I'm proud that you're living a life that makes you happy. And no matter what fandom you may find yourself in next, I will always enjoy your writing. Take care of yourself. (2 end
HELLO NEW FOLLOWER I LOVE YOU (i get a lot more a day now than i used to and i feel guilty about not being able to look through so many blogs but i do try and follow back other writers for my fandoms!! ;_;). i’m sorry you get the same kind of comments! i’m always just happy to see people i like enjoying new things, even if i have no interest in it (hello to all of my mutuals who write for hunter x hunter and haikyuu, not interested but i’m sure you’re having a great time and i support you!!!). 
Anonymous asked: I'm sure you're getting a barrage of supportive messages now (at least I hope so) but I figured I'd add my voice, because I'm a longtime follower. Your writing is, and always has been, wonderful. I've been so happy to see you and Haz get to a place that works for you both. Idk if it's obvious for everyone, but you seem like you're emotionally in a pretty good place most of the time these days, and it makes me really happy to see that. I followed years ago for JJBA content, but I stayed because regardless of what content you put out, I find your wit delightful. And I'll stick around even if you move fandoms entirely, because whatever content or editorializing you produce is going to be worth reading, regardless of what it's for.
ahh, anon!! thank you for sticking around so long, sorry if you’re old enough to have been around the vore and jorts and spider rohan fiascos! <3 i am definitely a lot more stable than i have been and - barring the Pandemic Related Mental Health Issues - happier! i’m glad that it’s noticeable! <3
Anonymous asked: It actually makes me mad how entitled some people are. Nat, you're not a content creating machine and those who expect you to be are not worth wasting a thought on. Your love for something is not measured in word counts and for you to write every day without getting burned out in the slightest you really must have a burning passion and huge dedication to your craft. If others decide to send hate then allow me to send admiration because I can feel your love and hard work in each post you make!
i try and write every day bc it’s super good for my little ocd/autistic brain to have routines and distract itself, so i’m glad other people can enjoy them because that makes me motivated to carry on! like, i write for myself mostly bc the content i want i sometimes get find, but filling requests and writing for other people also leaves me with happy warm fuzzies too! i appreciate you!! <3 
Anonymous asked: If people only care about your writing for the jojo porn that’s on THEM, not you. Your writing was amazing when I followed about a year ago, and it’s only gotten better and will continue to get better! I think it really comes through when you enjoy what you’re writing and it adds a whole other layer of worth to it, because not only are you making free content but you LIKE that content and we can all gush about it together!!! More than just fans, I think you’ve created a community here and we don’t just stick around to read smut, I promise you that. -Reronon
i do miss having a discord community bc it was nice to talk to everyone in real time but it was hard work, i am glad that people feel like they can just come into my askbox and gush! i’m not very friendly in real life and people tend to think i am cold and stuck up so i work very hard to try and seem friendly and approachable online, which is much easier for me because i get to think and re-draft before i type! <3 
Anonymous asked: Hi Nat! I’m sure you’re getting a lot of messages like this right now but I just wanted to say for what it’s worth that, as a person who originally followed you for jjba content and hasn’t watched/read any of the other series you’re currently writing for, I’m honestly still along for the ride. This is your blog and you’re allowed to do what you want with it and put out what content you feel like writing. Sometimes??? People acquire new interests??????? Shocking! I know absolutely nothing about jjk or bnha but out of curiosity still read some of your posts about them and even though I might not Get It, I still enjoy them because I think you’re a very talented writer! Honestly, as long as you’re still writing, I’m still down to clown, and whenever you take breaks (which are important!) I’ll still be waiting for your return or supporting and respecting your decision to stay away longer. Don’t let the entitled assholes get you down. Utilize YOUR blog and YOUR space however YOU choose. Your talent and kindness speak for themselves. Love you!!! ❤️❤️❤️
anon i care about you and i am so appreciative of you and everyone for sending me such nice messages! i am running out of ways to say it but it’s true, it really does mean a lot to me ;_; <3

REPLIES TO SPENCER’S ASSUMPTIONS PART 1
Tumblr media
@ktarsims​
Ahhh, assumptions. Well, probably Spence will have some of those assumptions corrected sooner or later. Self-righteous prigs end up alienating themselves from a lot of actually good people who don’t conform to their narrow definitions of ‘righteous’. (I should know, because I used to be one to an extent in my younger days.) But they can learn and grow. 😋 Especially when they’re humbled via experience teaching them sharp lessons about how wrong they’ve been, or how narrow their perspective was.
Lovely, lovely comment that had me nodding vehemently then cackling with glee. He will definitely have them corrected if Mia, Raj and I have anything to do with it!
Tumblr media
@kscriba​
I feel like this bothered me far more than it would ever bother Mia
Mia is not bothered by being labelled a slut, but the fact that he is implying that she didn’t love Noah or cheated on Noah hurt her to the core. 
@skyburned​
I don't think I'd worry about other people's honor, well not those people anyway. They're not delicate. They're not in delicate relationships. This is about Noah, isn't it. I'm behind and cheating by reading from new backwards (sometimes I read books that way...for shame), so maybe this is an obvious thing. I still think it. BTW that kitchen is perfectly awful, as in perfectly. I'd run.
Yes, Spence is hurting about Noah, and taking it out on Mia. He does genuinely think that she cheated on him though, not that it’s any of his business, but he wants an outlet for his anger. 
That kitchen has virtually been untouched since Jojo lived there...Raj is neat and tidy, but his attitude to food is generally ‘food is fuel’ and cooking is definitely not something he can be bothered devoting much time to. 
@windermeresimblr​
This is probably the only time I agree on something Spencer says--don't strip down in front of him, Mia. He'd blow a gasket and then you'll have to Weekend-at-Bernies his misogynist carcass out of there. Not ideal.
There are not enough Weekend At Bernies references on Tumblr, lolol!!
Tumblr media
@drudragonrose​
I kind of agree. You don't want to tasked with taking out the trash as well as getting breakfast after being hungover.
Tumblr media
@ktarsims​
Hahaha. But the only person with a problem here is Spence. Mia isn’t afraid of nudity.
Spencer has a LOT of problems.
Tumblr media
@dandylion240​
Hmm I wonder if Spense would have a problem with her stripping in front of him if it were say Cookie? I have a feeling it might be depend upon his opinion of who is doing the stripping.
OMG SO TRUE! In this post, Spence talked about how he saw Naomi naked, and there was no judgment or criticism whatsoever. It definitely depends who it is!
@whyhellosims​
The contempt dripping from every word is impressive! He really just loathes the air she breathes, doesn't he?
Tumblr media
@simcatcher​
lmao go mia! go for the eyes 😈 also loool at the flying STD. careful Spence, you might get infected if she spat at you 😂
Tumblr media
@streetlightaurora​
Poor, delicate Spenser.
Tumblr media
@xldkx​
i'm cracking up at "get undressed in the fucking bathroom like a normal person" bc i am mia and there's a trail of clothes between my bed and my bathroom lol
Tumblr media
@xldkx​
listen, walkers who undress, we exist
Tumblr media
@stsciurussimblr​
Apparently not. . .
Tumblr media
@sweetnovember77​
Yikes. I kinda sorta agree with Spencer’s logic. However “It isn’t what you say but how you say it.”
Tumblr media
@sweetnovember77​
Perhaps working in a toxic environment, has Spencer bent out of shape.
Spencer pretty much is the toxic environment, lolol!
@sweetnovember77​
@xldkx You appear relatable. I think Spencer is trying to say keep your private parts, um, private when strangers/folks are in the same room😅
@xldkx​ 
@sweetnovember77 hehe this is true :-D
Tumblr media
@muses-circle​
Wow, Spencer reeeeeeally hated Mia. Does he blame her for Noah's death?
No, he doesn’t, but he definitely thinks she wasn’t good for him.
@dreamsascend​
I was thinking the same @muses-circle . I bet seeing Mia always reminded him of Noah. Maybe 1 of the reasons why he just couldn't stand Mia's presence
Tumblr media
@muses-circle​
Exactly @dreamsascend . This level of nastiness and anger doesn't come from nowhere. There has to be a reason behind it.
@dreamsascend​
@muses-circle true. I agree!
The truth has now been revealed...and @muses-circle​ you were very much on the money when you said Spencer is taking his grief out on Mia. Thank you both as always for reading and for your awesome comments!💖
@shhhushhh​
"Crusty underpants"?!?! 😂😂😂 How are you coming up with things like this?!? I'm so envious!!! 👏👏👏 Also I don't know if it's psychic twins strike again or just me being obsessed with zodiac behaviour, but both Michael and Mia are Gemini and both has absolutely no shame or even self-awareness when it comes to nudity. It's absolutely amazing!!
I hate to admit this, but my one of my bffs and I back in the day always used to refer to each other as ‘Crusty’ lolol...maybe it’s a (very gross) Aussie thing! And yeah that IS amazing! They don’t do it for shock value or to offend or titillate, they just have absolutely no self-awareness.
@simcatcher​
(I just LOVE the parallels btw Simba and Mia. another ship that's never meant to sail, but hey ahaha @shhhushhh)
Ermmmm... I think @shhhushhh knows exactly how I feel about Michael and will not be offended when I say OVER MY DEAD BODY lololol!!
Tumblr media
@alittledaylight​
Ever heard of leaving the room? 🙄
Tumblr media
@skyburned​
Just perfect writing. Just absolutely perfect. You capture both of them right down to the bone. Dignity can be a valuable asset but it wouldn't hang right on Mia. Heavy cloth and all.
Oh my gosh, I’m blushing to the roots of my hair! Thank you so much for the amazing compliment! And yes, Mia is definitely a free spirit ;=) Dignity does not look good on her!
Tumblr media
@mysimsloveaffair​
"Put your crusty fucking underpants back on and get undressed in the fucking bathroom like a normal person." This had me cracking up...OMG!
LOL! I’m quite surprised Mia was even wearing underpants tbh!

uhm sis (or bro or whatever u prefer i just call everyone sis) pls reblog more fics like i need some good ones and pieces was hella good
Ahhh i’m really glad you like Pieces!!! It deserves more love for sure and the feels are only going to get better I can promise you that hoho \o/ (and I’m good with both sis/bro, I don’t mind either or it’s cool)
So far I’ve been blindly going through the AO3 tags for jojo fics so I’m not sure if my fic recs would entirely appeal to you … but if you’re interested you could definitely take a look at some of these faves! (Do mind the fics’ tags if you’re sensitive to certain tropes) Most of these are going to be heavily skewed towards part 4 and 7 (absolutely no one is surprised), but there’s other parts under the cut too!
Part 2
see you again by efthemia (6k oneshot with background Part 7 ship) - A Caejose reincarnation fic! This is set in a modern day au where Joseph and Caesar meet in another life … by crashing vehicles into each other lol
Can You Ever Go Home Again? by alexclusive (4k oneshot, contains Part 4 spoilers but is mostly centred around Part 2 and 3 characters) - I don’t want to spoil too much for this fic so I’m just going to copy paste the fic’s original summary here: “A few months after his adventure in Morioh, Jotaro goes on another personal errand at the request of his grandfather, and ends up discovering yet another lingering ghost.” A lowkey fix-it with feels!
Part 3
Torture Me by Xyloto (nsfw 2k oneshot) - The SDC gang walks in on jotakak inappropriately using their stands lmaooo enough said
Young Flame by greenteafiend (nsfw 7k multichaptered) - More Jotakak! Takes place during the Devil-Yellow Temperance part of SDC where Jotaro and Kak share that hotel room in Singapore lol
Kiss With A Fist by nevermordor (nsfw 6k oneshot) - Tempers and egos flare between Jotaro and Kakyoin as they make the long tenuous journey to Egypt – Fistfights inevitably happen. I really like how much of a cold hardass bastard Kakyoin gets in this lol
time after time by dimolto (11k oneshot) - TIME LOOP TIME LOOP TIME LOOP!!!! God time loops are one of my favourite tropes of all time, I don’t think I could get sick of it. SDC canon compliant (kinda) – Jotaro is the only person that’s aware of the loop and has to work his way out of it somehow. It’s jotakak too!! Highly rec this fic
Part 4
No place where we can’t go by tjesje (4k oneshot) - Josuyasu! Two dudes slowly fall in love over the course of their summer break. OP really nails the friendship between Josuke and Okuyasu – the banter flows so easily you can’t help but get caught up in how close and in sync they are with each other. Also, the summer vibes are super strong in this fic! Always a big plus with duwang content lmao
electric word life by Fluffifullness (8k oneshot) - More Josuyasu mutual pining + confessions, suuuuper sappy and sweet with some light post DiU angst.
Just Let Me Know, How Do You Feel? by hushroom (6k multichaptered) - Post DiU – Set during their college years, Okuyasu meets up with Josuke for the first time in a while, and they work towards overcoming emotional distance caused by the strain of long distance relationships and misunderstandings. Aged up Josuyasu content is always such a treat and this one doesn’t let down!
Bosozoku Boys by VulpesVulpes (nsfw 4k oneshot) - Takes place a few years after DiU. One night during a sleepover Josuke accidentally stumbles upon a porn mag under Oku’s bed – midnight confessions and feels ensue. This fic always has a soft spot in my heart just because of how vulnerable Josuke gets, argh my heart it aches
Crashing Waves by chamomilekai (7k multichaptered) - Post DiU – Josuke and Okuyasu deal with the lingering effects from the final Kira fight. It’s a slow burn romance with heavy feels where both bros find comfort and support in each other, very delicious part 4 h/c sob x10000
Part 5
the passenger by havisham (nsfw 5k oneshot, contains Part 6 endgame spoilers) - A Brugio fix-it …. of sorts. Ten years after Vento Aureo ends, mob boss Giorno somehow finds himself sent back in time with the opportunity to save Bruno and the others. I really like how desperate and jaded Giorno is in trying to save everyone, and how despite everything things still don’t go entirely the way he wants them to …
DIOmestic by writers_haven (4k oneshot) - Yep, it’s modern au mudad lmao. Some JonaDio here and there but the focus is mostly on Dio+Gio father-son fluff. It’s stupidly cute and there are little nods to canon material that I love to bits, like Hamon being reimagined as a fancy form of new age yoga ahahaha
Part 7
Riches and Wonders by etymology playground (8k oneshot) - A lighthearted gyjo fic that takes place during canon events – Two weeks after Sugar Mountain, Johnny and Gyro spend some R&R at a stand-powered onsen lmao. This was one of the first few fics I read right after finishing part 7, and it really helped to soothe the post SBR pain … not that I’m completely over it yet but then again would anyone ever be lol
Laundry by Petronia (2k oneshot) - Another lighthearted canon gyjo fic with lowkey ust lol – Johnny and Gyro take time between travels to do laundry. Idk, there’s something about gyjo domestic downtime that’s so comforting sob
i’ll see your face again by queenieofaces (2k oneshot, Part 7 endgame spoilers) - Oh boy this one … It’s a reincarnation au where Gyro experiences deja vu and misplaced memories from Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency during the events of SBR. 10/10 lots of feels bc reincarnation aus pair so incredibly well with gyjo gosh
nowhere to go; I’m already inside by librisdedita (31k multichaptered, major Part 7 spoilers all around) - A canon compliant gyjo fic – Johnny’s perspective on life is especially bleak in this one. OP tore my heart asunder by the end of this fic but oh man I wouldn’t have it any other way lmao
Cowboys Ain’t Easy To Love by jotarosgirl17 (36k multichaptered, Part 7 spoilers) - A series of interconnected slowburn gyjo canon compliant fics, suuuper heavy on angst and period-typical homophobia and internalised homophobia. Very good for a cry … or ten lmao
see you when the sun sets east by mourn (nsfw 2k oneshot) - Two cowboys sit five feet apart from each other not talking about their repressed feelings yeehaw. Jokes aside this is a quick but intimately tender glimpse into the beginning of Johnny and Gyro’s relationship
Spin This! by polyphenols (17k multichaptered) - A modern day office au where Diego works at a new tech startup named Steel Ball Run. Honestly, I don’t think I could ever properly articulate how much I love this fic – It’s full of sooo many nods and easter eggs to all the bizarre eccentricities that happen in part 7′s canon, and I think nearly every major/minor character gets featured one way or another, if not all (everyone works in the same horrifyingly open air office space after all). The witty banter and dialogue between characters are so snappy and succinct you can’t help but smile or laugh while reading along. Diego in particular stars as the long suffering Straight Man and audience surrogate into the madness that is SBR, with a lowkey crush on HP that slowly builds as the fic progresses (there’s background gyjo too!). While there’s more of a central focus on Part 7 at first, characters from other parts also make an appearance and gradually become more involved as well. I can’t rec this fic enough!!!
Diamond Ball Run by polyphenols (15k multichaptered, Part 7 endgame spoilers) - A gyjo fix-it of sorts … Johnny takes up Funny Valentine’s offer and asks for an Alternate Universe Gyro. The fic is mostly told from Alt Gyro’s perspective in the later half, and argh this makes my heart ache in so many ways I didn’t know were possible god help me –
happy new year, johnny by 3kanite (7k oneshot, Part 7 endgame spoilers) - Aaaah I just read this one today lmao – The fic is written from Johnny’s POV over the course of several new year celebrations – pre-race and during SBR canon. It really nails Johnny’s characterisations and personality shifts down nicely and makes the last year spent with Gyro that much more bittersweet and heartbreaking oh why won’t these part 7 feels stop coming for me
desperado by 3kanite (35k multichaptered) - Features missing scenes that take place during the events of SBR – Admittedly I’ve only read the first two chapters so far and haven’t fully processed things yet but I’m already so caught up in these pre-slash gyjo feels that I can’t help but rec this one catch me crying behind Owson’s @ 3am bc it’s just that good urgh I need an adult Could possibly be nsfw but I haven’t gotten that far in yet obvs
Aaaand that’s about it for now! Hopefully some of these interested you haha. Go show these wonderful OPs some love because they deserve it!!!

I love your blog so much, you're really out here doing god's work lmao. If Gucci with you, could you write a scenario with part 2 Joseph where reader's just had a rough day, so she comes home really sad and tired and he's just like "Not on my watch!" and just distracts her to cheer her up? Idk I just feel like that Joseph would be the CEO Of cheering his s/o up
[alright, I apologize it took THIS long, I am happy to write for the chaotic Jojo lmao. I hope it is alright and you’ll enjoy it! Thank you for such Gucci comment of yours, your vibes are too strong for my poor heart - Arni]
Relax
“I am home…” you called weakly as your boyfriend emerged from the kitchen. Noticing your exhausted state, he was about to ask you about your day, but you quickly cut him off, feeling the annoyance and disappointment in today’s today.
“Don’t ask, it was an awful day and I am glad it’s over” you grunted “Sorry, Jojo, I am just in a bad mood, shit’s stupid and life is annoying” you then gentle added, reassuring the man that it wasn’t his fault and you were just too dead for today.
“Say no more, babe!” Joseph suddenly proclaimed, helping you undress then taking you into his arms, carrying you towards the coach “let your amazing boyfriend help you on this harsh day! Do you want me to prepare a bath for you?” he then asked looking at you sighing at the softness of the couch as your neck was slowly but surely killing you.
“Sure” you answered.
“I’ll be quick” Jojo answered, kissing your forehead then going to the bathroom. You could hear Joseph managing something there, presumably different bottles. After a while you felt a pleasant aroma filling the room as Joseph added different oils to your bath, hoping it’ll help you relax more. You were ready to stand and go grab spare clothes however, Jojo emerged from the bathroom, quickly stopping you.
“No,no. You go relax in the bathtub while I will take care of everything” he kissed your cheek, then going to find you clean clothes as you entered the bathroom, feeling the warmth and pleasant smell hit you. Sighing tiredly, you undressed, letting yourself lie down in the bathtub as your stiff muscles finally started to relax after this mess of a day. Letting your worries disappear you concentrated on the feeling of warm water surrounding you. You felt like you might asleep any given moment due to how relaxed bath made you feel.
You heard a soft knock as your boyfriend’s voice could be heard on the other side of the door
“You alright there? I got you clean clothes. Should I leave them outside or may I enter?~” the last part of the sentence was in the usual Joseph’s cheekiness as the man couldn’t waste an opportunity to be smooth with you.
“You may” came the answer as your soft laugh filled the small room,
“There ya go” Joseph said, putting the fresh clean clothes near the sink, then retreating but not before lingering behind the half-closed door, eyeing you “Do you want tea or cocoa? I am making us food now so might as well pull the water to boil” Jojo asked, half of his torso appearing from the door.
“Tea would be nice” you answered
“Alright~ Don’t fall asleep on me here. Not when the best chef is in the kitchen” he winked before closing the door after himself.
As the water got colder with time and you felt your muscles relax, you were reading to leave the bath, feeling quite pleasant. After drying you hair and putting on fresh clothes, you excited the room, however, you weren’t expecting to be met with such a sight before you.
Pillows and blankets were scattered around the big coach as a teapot was placed on the table together with the multitude of different snacks and sweets. Before you could comment on such delightful scene before you, Jojo came in holding two plates what seems to be filled with home-made pasta. Feeling the pleasant smell enter your nose, your stomach couldn’t help but to growl oin anticipation.
“I am happy to see that you are ready to try the best pasta in your life” Joseph said excitedly as he put two plates on the table, eager to show off his cooking skills. However, as if remembering something, Joseph ran off in search of a particular thing “Ah, come sit, babe, I forgot one small detail”
As you sat down on the coach and looked at all the delicious looking food and snacks, you couldn’t help but to get emotional due to such sign of affection and support from your loving boyfriend.
“Found it!” Jojo entered the room again, now with a lit candle in his hand. Putting it carefully on the table, he sat next to you, wrapping his strong arms around your form “why such face, my love?” he asked as you couldn’t help but to tear up a bit.
“I just…I am so thankful, Jojo. Thank you for being there for me and doing all…..this” you pointed around yourself to the intimate atmosphere that surrounded you two. Dimmed lights together with delicious food and a loving partner by your side.
“It’s really nothing. I am happy if not flattered that you liked what I organized here but of course, it’s be we are talking about” Joseph commented while bringing you closer to his chest, cheeky smile complimenting his handsome features. He then continued in a gentle tone as you returned the hug
“I am sorry you had such a harsh day but I will make sure that it will end perfectly.”
“You always do” you commented, then teasing the brunette “I hope the chef didn’t poison my food~” as you remembered many failed attempts at some point in your relationship.
“Well….” He thought for a second “you try first”
“Jojo!”

phosie + coming out to the family pretty please ❤️
{Read on AO3}
Thank you for your request! As we don't know anything about Pen's family and I don't know about Hope's (lmao I will eventually watch the Originals), this is just to Lizzie and Alaric. I hope you enjoy!
Tumblr media
"Are you sure about this?" Hope asked, holding her hands gently. "We can wait, if you want to." 
Penelope stood beside her, one arm looped around Hope's waist. She nodded in agreement. "There's no rush, JoJo."
Josie knew they wouldn't mind if she stepped back. Her girlfriends would support her through thick and thin, it was entirely her decision. And whatever she chose would be completely fine with them. 
But Josie wanted to do this. 
Sure, she was afraid but she also knew this was the right decision. For her and for them. She'd been putting it off for too long and today, she wouldn't let fear win. 
Josie smiled and nodded. "I know. I do want to tell them. I'm just nervous." 
Her dad loved her and so did Lizzie; she was certain of that. But that didn't stop the tiny voice of fear that maybe they wouldn't accept her. That maybe they'd reject her and turn away, her deepest fear. She loved with her heart and didn't want it broken. 
Hope squeezed her hands in reassurance. "I get it. Just remember, we're here too. We'll support you no matter what happens." 
"We love you, JoJo," Penelope smiled. 
Her heart did that tiny skip-beat. She would never get tired of hearing that. Were they moving too fast? Perhaps, but it felt right. She did love them—they loved her.  Lying had never done her any good and she wanted nothing more than to be with both of them. 
"Okay." Josie took a deep breath. "Wait in my room for me?" 
They nodded. 
This required a family gathering. Lizzie would already be there so she just needed to find her dad. And she knew where he'd be. He was always working, especially since the recent threat of Malivore was threatening the school. Exactly what he was working on, she never knew. But she knew he'd be in his office. 
Josie opened the door and sure enough, there he was. Head down, even with the sky darkening to black outside. She never knew when and if he actually slept. A thought for another day. 
"Dad?" 
"Hey, Josie," Alaric looked up from his desk, a weary smile spreading across his face. "Um, can I help you?" 
Josie nodded. "We… we need to talk. Can you come to my room?" 
Alaric was out of his seat immediately, work forgotten. "Of course. Are you hurt? In trouble?" 
Josie shook her head. "Nothing like that. It's not bad, I promise. Just… come. Lizzie's already there." 
He looked like he wanted to question  her more but closed his mouth and nodded. Waiting, trusting that what she said was true. Josie led the way back. The silence was nerve-wracking but lasted only a few minutes. 
Hope and Penelope were sitting on her bed, noticeably not touching. Usually, Penelope at least was all over her but it seemed they were trying to be good for what was too happen. Josie suppressed a chuckle. Lizzie was on her bed, eyes narrowed at them. 
"-you doing-?" She stopped when she saw her. "Oh, Josie, thank God. These two came in and won't leave." 
"I asked them to be here." 
Lizzie noticed their dad with her and her eyes narrowed even more. "What's going on?" 
Josie closed the door and turned back. In this very room, almost all the people she cared deeply about. It was missing a few friends and her mom but for now, this was the step she was going to take. She took a deep breath. "So I've been deciding whether to tell you or not. But I am going to." 
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw movement as Hope and Penelope rose. 
"You know I'm pan," she said. "But I…" she hesitated. 
"Does it maybe have something to do with these two?" her dad asked, nodding towards her girlfriends. 
Josie nodded. 
"I'm dating Hope and Penelope." 
For a few seconds there was stunned silence. And then-
"Both of them?" Lizzie asked. 
"Yes." 
A hand pressed against hers before slipping between her fingers. And then on her other side. Hope and Penelope giving their silent support. 
"Well, I-..." Lizzie trailed off, as she tried to figure out her words. "I support you, of course, but these two? Why am I not surprised?" Her eyes narrowed. "I knew you two were too fond of Josie." 
"Lizzie." 
Lizzie shrugged. "Just letting them know." She smiled. "I am a little protective. Hope, Penelope, take good care of her." 
Penelope gave her a mock salute. "Naturally." 
No matter how sharp she was, Lizzie only wanted the best for her. In her own way, she expressed it. Josie was glad. She'd really grown. 
"Dad?" 
Alaric smiled. "What do you want me to say? I love you and want you to be happy. So as long as you're happy, I… it's fine with me." 
Why had she even been nervous about telling them? Of course, dating two people instead of the usual one was something that most people weren't used to but they were her family. And they loved her. 
Josie squeezed their hands and they squeezed back. She couldn't help the tiny giddy feeling that bubbled in her chest. Like a drug letting her bloom, she smiled. 
"I will, of course, be a little stricter on curfew knowing this." 
"Dad!" 
"Boyfriends or girlfriends, your studies come first." He was smiling though. 
A brush of a whisper along her ear and then Hope murmured "Don't worry. We'll find a way around it." 
A shiver of the promise ran down her spine and Josie awkwardly cleared her throat. "Yes! Um, well… that's it, I guess." 
"Thank you for telling us," Alaric said gently. "I'm glad you were able to come to us." 
Her family had never made her feel like she couldn't trust them. They fought as families did but never pushing her too far. 
As her dad left, Josie flopped down on her bed. 
"Well, I think that went well." Penelope flopped down next to her. "How you feeling?" 
"Good " 
Hope lay down next to them, crossing her hands under her chin. "What about our friends?" 
"We can tell them tomorrow or someday after." Something for another day. For now, she was content just to lie with them and be happy. 
"Am I going to have to deal with twice the sappiness now?" Lizzie groaned from her bed. "It was bad enough with Penelope but Hope too?" 
Hope grinned and cuddled to Josie. "Sorry, Lizzie, but you'll have to deal with it." 
Lizzie rolled her eyes but it was done in good humour. Her family accepted her, always had and she hoped always would. One of the reasons she loved them so much.
