Francesca looked up in surprise at the arrival of her partner, turned her head to guide her gaze to the clock of the place and it was exactly the time they had agreed, no more minute, no less. And it’s not that she was late either, she was the one who always ended up rushing to the meetings but this time she had been the first in that coffee table, had she been anxious to see him? Pressure of knowing how she was?

─“Jojo!” ─She mentioned without getting up from her seat but offering to take a seat in front of her while giving a soft smile. She had really stopped to admire how much he had changed over the years and how mature he looked, it was something that eager her in part but by the time she noticed how the older one took a seat a nervous laugh peeked from his lips looking for the menu to deliver it to him─ “Pardon me, you sure must be hungry…”

Jotaro was doing his best to keep his cool but he felt a little awkward seeing her again. He could already tell how different she looked... Far more mature now; well, he supposed both of them had changed. Back then they were just teenagers trying to figure themselves out but now they were grown adults who had been living their separate lives. He was excited to see her again but was nervous... He wasn’t sure if he’d be able to keep up a conversation, but then again maybe Cesca would be the one to carry out the whole conversation and he could just nod like the good old days.

“Hey, Cesca.” although he didn’t seem very enthusiastic he was smiling just a bit at her presence. Wow... She was really right in front of him once more. Just how long had it been? He took the empty seat in front of her and was quick to pick up the menu - anything to block him from just staring at her for awhile. “Uh, yeah... Did you decide what you wanted already?”

⨳ — SEND 💖 TO HOLD MY MUSE’S HAND; // for joseph

The sudden touch to his hand caught Joseph off guard... Whoa, who was this person?! Stranger danger... but of course Joseph played it cool. Kind of. He turned the sudden hand holding into a handshake as well.

“Ah, hello... Nice to meet you too. Is hand holding a kinda greeting you do where you’re from? Well where I’m from we shake hands.”

Everything Anasui was saying was exactly the assurance that Jolyne needed, it was exactly what she wanted from a romantic partner, that alone should have been enough to ensure her trust was given to him. Coupled with the fact that he had proven it, that he had remained steady in what he said he felt for her, so why was it still so damn hard? 

Jolyne knew that eventually she’d have to force those feelings down, let him in and let him do exactly what he said he’d do, otherwise she knew that part of her that worried that he’d leave could have won. She remained silent for a moment before she let her body move closer to him, not making eye contact for the time being. Hers pressed close to his as she let him keep her hand in his, and she could feel that worried part of her screaming at her. “I know you do– I want you to do that.. for me..” The hesitance was still clear, but it was all she could do to try and convey that she wanted to give him the chance to do exactly that. “And I wanna do it for you.”

All Anasui could do was keep hoping that Jolyne would believe him. He had no problem continuously reassuring her of these things; no matter how long it takes he would keep reminding her over and over. 

He was pleasantly surprised when he noticed Jolyne had actually moved closer to him but he knew better than to act so quickly. He had to be a little more patient with Jolyne even if his arms had been itching to just pull her in closer to him now. No - he’d have to wait. For now he gave her hand a gentle squeeze... Baby steps. “Then... Let me, Jolyne. You can trust me. I promise.” he almost sounded desperate but he had to be careful not to be too pushy either if he wanted this to work. “... You wanna do it for me, too?” now that was a surprise... he felt like his heart wanted to jump right out of his chest. “Jolyne... You... You mean that?”

you giggle at jojo talking to your computer and say id love to cuddle! you’re so warm and cozy! you push your computer aside and give jojo a big hug!

Joseph gives your computer a triumphant grin as if to show the inanimate object that he’s won this “battle” for your attention.

He’s happy when you give him a hug, he gently rubs your back... You’re just so cute and you smell nice too!

“Hehe, this is much better.”

johnnyjoestarsass​:

‘i’m pleased, dear.’ He smiles, once again going to his other room where he goes to change into proper attire. He loves it when scarlet dresses up for him- it makes him feel…special, so to speak.  he lets out a chuckle from the other room, nodding silently. ‘of course, Scarlet.. I love spending time with you- it means ever so much to hear that you do as well.’ He just smiles at that last part, continuing to get dressed.

‘i’m aware… i feel the same- I love you more than I love our country.’

Ohh~! The fact that Scarlet gets to see him smile in her direction pleases her immensely. Her husband is often such a serious man, but she feels so enamored when he seems to be more at ease around her. “Oh, Funny! You know I always love spending time with you too!” she has her hands on her cheeks now, her face is starting to feel so warm. Even after all this time he sure can make her blush so easily. 

“More than our country? Oh my, darling! You really are the sweetest you know, of course I feel the same way about you too!” 

[bizarrepaths]

I seriously lose track of time so much, help.

darlingyoungboyzz​:

He nods, smiling gently and chuckling when she takes his hand so quickly. ‘Ah, how convenient. I can’t wait to see you wearing it, Scarlet. I already know you’ll look stunning.’ He heads to another room, still listening though now looking at clothing he could wear. ‘I’m glad you think so. I can agree, really… I do love spending time with you. It’s a break from the stress we take each day I’m sure..’ he turns around and walks over with the lightest hint of blush on his cheeks, smiling at her compliment and kissing her back. ‘I love you too.’

“I was hoping you’d say that~ You know I’m excited to wear it for you.” Scarlet gives a playful wink of course. None of her outfits had seemed to disappoint Valentine before so she was sure that he’d enjoy what she had picked out for the occasion! “You know I love spending time with you, my darling! I always want to relieve your stress you know.” she was smiling almost mischievously to herself - perhaps her mind had been wandering. Well, it was always wandering when it came to her husband; she was always yearning to be close to him and kiss him and give him the sweet attention and affection he deserved! “Ohh~! No matter how many times you say it I never get tired of you telling me you love me!”

darlingyoungboyzz​: 

He nods, reaching out his hand to hold hers. He puts on a warm smile, looking into her eyes lovingly. ‘Always a pleasure to hear… well then, i’ll put on something fashionable.. I know much you love it when I wear fancy clothes, isn’t that right?’ He stands up, stretching lightly and closing his eyes, taking a moment to calm his nerves as he often does. When he finishes he nods, wrapping a lock of hair around his finger. ‘of course, of course.. i’m terribly sorry for not being open more often. If I had as much time as before I would spend it all with you.. I love you very much, you know.’

Scarlet’s eyes practically light up when she notices his hand reaching out to hold hers, she naturally is quite quick to take his hand and gently rub the back of his palm with her thumb. “You know me so well, my darling! I think I have a nice dress saved for this occasion as well.” she giggles softly. “That’s quite alright, my darling! It just makes the time we do get to spend together even more special. You know I treasure every moment we spend together. I love you just as much, Funny!” Don’t mind Scarlet taking this opportunity to kiss her husband on the cheek.

STARTERS TAKEN FROM POEMS I’VE WRITTEN - PART TWO

feel free to change pronouns!

’ i think the whole world is within you. ’ ’ trauma is insidious. it sticks like a shadow, like mortar; the only thing holding our disparate shards together in the shape of a person. ’ ’ what are we, if not the echoes of insults and disappointments, the ghosts of the people our parents used to be? ’ ’ what are we if not the space in the skyline where something used to stand? the afterimage of a flashbulb lit in the quiet moment before roaring tragedy? ’ ’ i watch you standing in the sunlight laughing, harsh and beautiful, something more than our parents or this nation could ever hope or deserve to behold. ’ ’ you’re the one lucky creature in this world of ashes. ’ ’ i feel myself decaying with every wasted minute. ’ ’ i think if you took my chest and split me open, you’d find soft black rot where my ambition used to be. ’ ’ if i cannot be happy, let me be free. if i cannot be free, let me be mad. ’ ’ i think of nothing but poems, and all the poems come from you. ’ ’ i’d ask to run away with you, but i never learned how to drive. ’ ’ i’d apologize for staring at you, but you captivate me as the night sky. ’ ’ when i was a child, i’d tilt my head back far enough that the only thing i could see was that stretching firmament, thinking: i might fall into those galaxies. ’ ’ you are allowed to be angry at those who hurt you—you are allowed to feel rage over what was done to you—you are allowed— ’ ‘ we burn, and our blaze tears away the veil of ignorance. ’ ‘ faith lies as charred or as changed as the city skyline. ’ ‘ we break out of rubble, claw our way to sunlight, wipe the dust from each other’s faces with hands sick of fighting and digging. ’ ‘ we will tear down their walls and build our homes atop the wreckage. ’ ’ i marvel at how you might lament a life like this. ’ ’ you may whisper to yourself: do i dare disturb the universe? and i will twine my hand in yours and say: you have—you do— ’ ’ you are a fool, perhaps. but so are all—men, women, everyone. ’ ‘ we measure our pride with watch-chains; measure our hearts with half-torn dancing-slippers worn on walks over rough streets, places they were never made to tread; measure ourselves with love-poems. ’ ‘ you are the might-have-been story of a boy grown into a man grown into the best mind of his generation. ’ ‘ you are the best mind of your generation which, coming upon the overwhelming question, turns it over like a diamond and, finding it unanswerable, sets it in a ring upon my finger. ’ ‘ perhaps it was not worth it, after all. or perhaps it is no great matter. ’ ‘ if i put my foot to the floor or take the turn just right, the horizon will swallow this ought-to-be-ghost town. ’ ‘ he prayed at the altar of machinery until the factory god gasped its dying breath. ’ ‘ i stand in the light of uncountable divinities and by them chart my westward course. ’ ‘ i was always more than the sacrificial lamb of the american dream. ’ ‘ in my memories you are gold-filigreed. ’ ‘ you became god when you breathed your first tale. ’ ‘ some things are best learned from the passenger’s seat. ’ ‘ amid the ache of beauty, and amid my wonder-love, i forgot i am a sinner. ’ ‘ i forgot that we ought to be bound for ruin, i forgot every cruel thing the world has ever flung our way, because the dawn made you holy in your sleep. ’ ‘ when i am bound for eternity, will you mourn for me? ’ ‘ i was only worth loving in your darkest hour, is that it? ’ ‘ i am a siren call, not sustenance: there is no meat left in me to feast on. ’ ‘ somewhere in me there is a living girl/boy/person, locked in the casket of my heart for safekeeping, buried beneath the silt of our solitude. it has been piled on for so long that i cannot find her/him/them when i try. i cannot even remember laying her/him/them to rest. ’ ‘ you told me you loved me and looked at me like i was holy. ’ ‘ you should have known i loved you when i asked you to take a road trip with me. ’ ‘ i love you, and because i love you i will put aside my relentless terror. ’ ‘ if i am your moon, do not take the sky from me. if i am your heart, do not take the cavity in which i beat ceaselessly, deaf and blind to all but you. ’ ‘ do not tear me from your chest while you still live in mine, so close that your breath is my breath and your words are my words. ’ ‘ who am i that you should love me? ’ ‘ i did not know with what words i spoke, what language, what voice; i knew only that i loved you, as soft and ever-present as breathing. ’ ‘ if you opened your mouth, the true name of god would spill from your lips. ’

darlingyoungboyzz​:

Valentine squints for a moment to look outside, smiling softly at the people walking by. He catches his reflection on the glass and admires it for a moment before remembering what he was talking about and closing his eyes for a split second then turning to face his wife again. ‘i was hoping we could spend some time together- it’s been a while, you know.’ His expression is sincere and almost comforting, with his hand resting absentmindedly on the arm of his comfortable office chair. To anyone else it wouldn’t seem that he cared too much about Scarlet, but of course she knows him well enough to see through his usually serious facial expressions. ‘just you and I, like how we used to spend our time. Remember those days, Scarlet?’

Oh, that’s exactly what she was hoping he’d say! Her heart hadn’t slowed down since she had been standing so close to him and even now she felt her heart aflutter at his suggestion. “Oh my~! Well you know I’m never opposed to spending time with you, Funny.” She’s going to use this opportunity to gaze right into his beautiful, blue eyes. Ah~ she always felt so mesmerized by him it was pretty much impossible for her to look away . “How could I forget? I always think about the times we’ve spend together! We’ve made so many memories together and I’m excited to make even more with you~ I know you’re busy but I do really cherish the time we get to spend together.”

@darlingyoungboyzz​ asked: 

Valentine sits lazily at his desk, filling out an official-looking form as usual. He’s always been rather busy, but that‘s to be expected with how important being the president is. When he isn’t working, he’s usually busy in some other way: taking a walk or a nap, mapping out places for his plans, etc etc. it’s always been rather difficult to find a free spot for him, and he’s usually aware of that. Not that he likes being away from his wife; he loves her very much and wants to spend as much time as he can with her. However he tends to fill up his schedule without thinking, and the result is hardly any time to spend with his dear wife. However, today he would try to find an open spot- he’d been preparing this for months, really: the perfect amount of free time to go on a walk or to take Scarlet shopping- or maybe a romantic dinner.

He finishes filling out the paperwork, setting his pen down with a satisfied sigh and turning around to face the room she’s in. ‘Scarlet, would you come here for a moment?’

Well now Scarlet is certainly excited! She understands her husband is busy, so she always makes sure to mark off her calendar on the days she’ll be able to spend with him. She doesn’t even need to write much except for a cute little heart mark which is enough of a statement to express her excitement for spending time with her husband. Despite being married to him for fifteen years, she was still as excited to spend time with him and felt just as, if not more, in love with him now as she did then. 

Of course when she heard him speak she was very quick to go be by his side... She wasn’t sure what was planned for the day, but it didn’t matter what they did as long as they spent time together. She could feel her heart racing with such excitement at the thought of being near her husband! 

“Yes, my darling~? What is it?”

If Anasui had one thing going for him, it was the fact that he had never lied to her. Not once had he been dishonest with his own feelings towards her, whether it be for his own gain or for some other reason. Anytime she asked for honesty, he had given it to her. She could say the same to him, but she had yet to tell him how she felt. 

She cared for him, maybe even had feelings that went deeper than that. Perhaps she should just abandon the fear she held that she wouldn’t be enough: that eventually he would see her for who she was, who she truly was, someone whos own father didn’t even want her, and who gave her mother hell anytime she acted out to get her fathers attention. That she was a clinger, that once she got into relationships, she moved fast, and it’s why her previous relationships had failed. As much as she wanted to deny it, once Jolyne admitted her feelings for someone, and if those feelings were returned, she truly did act like someone that’s been in a relationship with them for years. Sure, Anasui was open about how he felt, but would that be a turn off in the end for him? She barely noticed when he grabbed her by the hand, and as she looked up at him, as she returned his gaze, she couldn’t help the tiniest tinge of pink that dusted her cheeks. Swallowing back her nerves, she didn’t make any attempt at moving away. An almost humorless chuckle escaped, “Even if I get too clingy? If I rely on your affection too much?”

Anasui was a bit surprised at her words... He honestly thought that Jolyne could never be clingy to him. There’s no way he’d ever consider her being ‘too clingy’ at all; in fact he’d prefer it. He’d prefer Jolyne to cling to him and reassure him that she only belonged to him. 

His heart had been beating so quickly now though - he was wondering if this meant that maybe there had been hope for him. Sure, maybe Anasui’s feelings for Jolyne were a bit intense but it didn’t make them any less true. He knew that Jolyne had been hurt before, but he never wanted to break Jolyne’s heart ever! He never wanted to see her cry or cause her any pain; the thought of others making her feel like that made him so angry. If he could hurt them for hurting her Anasui would, but he also didn’t want to scare her away either. He had to try to not scare her off if he wanted Jolyne to see how serious he really was about her. 

“Jolyne... You could never get too clingy to me. You know I want to give you all the affection in the world. I’ll never get tired of showing you how much I love you.”

@leftsidebonfire​ asked: 

Life for Jocasta hadn't really been an easy one. She hadn't been particularly powerful, smart, or fast, in any case. Not that she could see, anyway. She did have her own special charms and quirks that made her good in her own way, but when competing with masterminds like Caesar and Joseph, it was hard to see small victories.

She didn't like a lot of attention, but yet she still managed to get it. Joseph, typical loudmouth handsome prankster, seemed to enjoy getting her flustered, even though she kept her head down most of the time. Even when they were both confined to the same metal prison of the mouth, even still, he could do better than her. He could win any sparring match easily, because the truth remained that she simply wasn't fast enough to counter him.

As she was feeling down and terrible one day, she could feel the sting of tears at her eyes, and her breathing quickened. Though, as she strayed from her proper breathing, she felt her throat restrict, and the endless cycle seemed to begin. Suffocating made her cry, and crying made her suffocate. She barely had enough time to shove herself in a broom closet before anyone could find her. She just hoped she had ducked away before Joseph rounded the corner to catch her.

Both Joseph and Caesar had taken interest in Jocasta lately... It had pretty much become a competition now to see who could capture her affection first. Joseph found it unfair that Caesar was even trying when he was usually the one who had been surrounded by a bunch of other people who seemed to have crushes on him while for Joseph he didn’t tend to get as much attention.

This was just fine with him as he didn’t really like having too much attention anyway ( well... sort of). He didn’t seem to mind having Jocasta’s attention though, she was just just so fun to tease... Her reactions were always just so damn cute. Joseph had noticed she wasn’t feeling well and decided to follow her to see where she had been heading...

He was doing his best to be quiet, although maybe his tall stature had given him away at some point as he tried to sneak behind Jocasta... Had she been crying? Joseph wanted to get a closer look... he decided to knock on the broom closet. 

“Hey, hey... Is anyone home?”

fairytalewritten​:

“Tch…”, Ungalo was used to being ditched, so he didn’t quite understand why that seemed so unlikely to this weirdo. Wasn’t it common for women to just not show up?? Or was that just a common thing to happen to him? Not that he’d be surprised - Ungalo wasn’t exactly a sight for sore eyes in the first place, and his personality only added to the fact that most females found him revolting.

“Well, smartass, whaddya say happened then, huh? Did the big bad wolf eat her?”

Perhaps it was about time for Ungalo to stop making fairytale references, before Anasui figured anything out… but admittedly, he simply wasn’t smart enough to put two and two together.

“Where do you suggest we start lookin’?”

Once again Anasui was quickly pulled back into his thoughts now pondering where Jolyne could’ve gone. There was absolutely no way she ditched him ( although that was possibly what had actually happened). He had to come up with another reason - any other reason but this. There was no way at all that she would ditch him ( well, of course there were plenty of reasons as to why she would ditch him, but Anasui was going to ignore that fact). 

“What are you talking about?! This shit ain’t little red riding hood! But... Maybe... She did have a run in an enemy stand user and they took her...” 

The thought of someone taking away his precious Jolyne would be too much to bear! He needed to hurry and get her back... He wouldn’t let anyone take him from her ( ... Except for the fact that he already did. Maybe.) 

“Let’s head this way first!” 

He was really going into this blind, there didn’t seem to be any traces of which direction to go next at all.
