jojo's bizarre analog adventure

[m0ralitycore]

SAME HAT- WORKING ON MY NOTES BASED ON THAT POST TOO-

...........so I blame @cyphyree completely for this because this post has begun rotting my thoughts inside out for the last several hours and I thought is I just sat down to draw some basic sketches I’d get the Vibes out but-

before you ask, yes. Yes I have impulsively started a fic draft for this

do I promise I'll finish it? No, but at the very least if I don't you'll get a VERY detailed bullet point list since my notes are currently 1.5k words and I’m not even to the specific note planning yet

[m0ralitycore]

*kicks door down*

I may have trouble juggling everything but I may as well try because this is perfect for some ideas I've had rattling around in my head- there'd be like two non- enemy OCS of mine there because I have a au I'm very attached to- (if you're interested, it's the Planetarium au, I have a snippet of Kyuuma's first encounter with Giorno on my blog, under the title The Emissary and The Ladybug. She, and a SPW agent probably there for backup would be the two ally ocs, the rest are enemies.)

but oh my god even the idea of it being the Stone of Aja that's the prize...

...also because it's an image that will not leave, the idea of one of the masquerade partygoers straight up wearing a stone mask with like. A string makes me cackle because. Hey, Chekhov's gun.

We'll see if I can do this.

-👾

I poked around some fics about Jotaro and Giorno meeting for the first time, and in a lot of them the two eventually sit down in an office to Talk. And it got me thinking, how else they could meet

Like what if there was a pretentious Venetian masquerade ball that SWF sent Jotaro to attend because, I dunno, someone found the Red Stone of Aja that Joseph lost and it's up for auction there. And Giorno as Don was also at the masquerade to meet important people.

And then everyone on the masquerade got trapped there because.... uh...... Rival Italian Stand User Mafia hijack the party to steal the treasures and take all these important/rich attendees hostage.... or something.

Also Josuke, Okuyasu, Yukako and Koichi are there. For vacation. They totally were not supposed to be at the Fancy People Party but they snuck in anyway

Also vampires. Italian Stand User Mafia Vampires.

Yeah.

(............. if anyone ever wanna take this and write it, please feel free and tag me to it lol i wanna read this now and there are so many better writers than me out there :'u )

[m0ralitycore]

I'm probably going to expand on this because my brain went "do the rest of part 3' and I am already getting ideas for nearly every single stand user there-

Yes even the usually forgotten minions. This is definitely going to need a post of its own lol-

The idea of Stands being one's soul plus Slightly Off things... things that aren't quite right, aren't quite normal... and people Without a stand don't know what is wrong with them, just that there is something wrong.

5am rambly idea; the more powerful a persons hamon is, the more they seem kind of.... off and unsettling to normal people. not in the same way a vampire would be since hamon is inherently much less threatening but its still something a normal person should not be able to do that effects their appearance/behavior in barely noticeable ways (bonus: jonathan going from kind of Weird to Very Weird after zeppeli gives him all of his hamon and even dio has fight or flight alarm bells going off in his head during his fight against jonathan)

y e s s s s s s s s s s s s ss

ough I ADORE when people are Just A Little Bit Off because of some kind of magic or another. Like. It's subtle things. Little things that you only really notice subconsciously

their breathing isn't quite right, the rhythm isn't the same as most people and yet they never seem to be out of breath no matter what

their eyes are almost unnaturally bright, they don't glow nor does the color change but it's just brighter. Almost like the reflection on the water at noon, like the colors around them are suddenly much duller, like the light is coming from them

they're always so warm even in the coldest most unforgiving weather, but at the same time they never show any signs of fever or discomfort

[m0ralitycore]

Ideas like this scratch a very specific writing itch of mine-

Extend it to stand users- like people without stands may not be able to see the stand or maybe only specific effects of stands, but they can still see the users, and they seem Just A Bit Off after awakening a stand.

Being just a little more limber. Accentuating parts of their personalities more.

Like they've almost been... Added to, from the outside.

*drags in the Crusaders as an easy set of examples* let's break down some possibilities!

Avdol always having the scent of smoke or incense around him, even when he hasn't used it in ages. It's calming. That subtle air of mystery that helped him in fortune telling, but it's just a bit easier to trust him.

Iggy becoming even more slippery than before. Sure he nearly got caught before, but he seems to disappear even easier. Out of the grips of people who want to catch him. Always just a little sandy. An extra bit of mischief that leads to new habits. Getting into places he shouldn't be able to, even after being taken in by the Foundation.

Joseph regains some of his hamon-gained oddness, even though it's been years since he trained properly. It's easier for him to breathe. Easier to laugh, and draw others into his amusement. He regains the ability to predict the actions of others, like he's reading them like a book, or reading their signals before they happen. He seems to know the little things that will happen. A subconscious compass, and he seems to glow just a bit more. He regains decades of internal youth in just a couple months.

Jotaro was always hard to read, but in certain moments, it feels easier. He seems stronger, almost, more quiet and yet louder when he finally lets loose. A cool air, knowledge of being safe around him once he's known long enough, and that sharp threat of danger that's accentuated by fear. At the right angle, it looks like he glints with stars. They show in cold, calculated eyes, where his hat meets his hair, in cigarette smoke.

Kakyoin's is a bit less obvious, but there's a tendency of those who speak to him to not think twice about the actual words. Accidental manipulation. His eyes seem to glint like gemstones in the right light.

Polnareff seeming almost... faster. More eager to defend and avenge. Being in the right place at the right time. If he picked up a sword, he'd use it like he had been training for years. He doesn't always get as hurt as he should. Like the damage glanced off skin-tight invisible armor that isn't always there. He's able to survive just a little longer. Get just a little further.

5am rambly idea; the more powerful a persons hamon is, the more they seem kind of.... off and unsettling to normal people. not in the same way a vampire would be since hamon is inherently much less threatening but its still something a normal person should not be able to do that effects their appearance/behavior in barely noticeable ways (bonus: jonathan going from kind of Weird to Very Weird after zeppeli gives him all of his hamon and even dio has fight or flight alarm bells going off in his head during his fight against jonathan)

The Emissary and the Ladybug

Test snippet for Kyuuma in Part Five.

( @starry-blue-echoes I have made a thing.)

There is no sound when the woman appears, in her nice suit and faintly glowing eyes.

Gold Experience screams nothing about her. She isn't dead, inorganic, something able to be changed, but she isn't a living being, either. The blue haired woman is something else. A hundred questions left unasked.

"Giorno Giovanna." He can't place her accent. She plays with a coin, held in black painted nails that almost looked like claws. One side a star, the other a heart. It's gold, but no sane place would take it.

"What do you want."

"Straight to the point." Her laugh rings in the alley. Then she finally smiles, and her teeth are too white, too perfect, too sharp.

Something buzzes in his mind. A familiarity that couldn't be explained.

"I don't want anything from you. Except perhaps a lack of violence." She spins the coin. Flips it and plucks it out of the air. Nonchalant, though she clearly already knows who he is.

"Then why are you here."

"You're starved for allies. That's not the only thing you need, but the only thing you can rationalize right now. Consider it returning a favor for someone you never met." The smile had mischief lacing it like a drug.

"I am not an enemy." Her words are smooth. They wash over the mind and curl around the heart. Yet, they're still true. Regardless of the poisonous, unnatural charisma clouding them.

"Why would you help me."

Even his mind and hands accustomed to pickpocketing couldn't pinpoint the moment she stole the photograph from his hidden wallet. The photograph of his father.

"I already told you. I'm returning a favor." The photo is handed back, and she reveals the side the coin landed on. The golden heart reflects the glint of the distant streetlight, and the light in his own eyes.

It's snatched back up before he could get a look at the words engraved in it.

"I'll see you when it's opportune, Giorno Giovanna." Red eyes almost glint pink as she turns away, walking calmly back down the alley until a corner is turned, and the woman vanishes as quickly as she came, into the night. A bit out laugh following her form until she could no longer be seen.

[m0ralitycore]

Okay I needed to look at this au and add a thing because I realized Kyuuma's stand, Pentacle Ace, would act so weird in this au.

Or I'm trying to make it somewhat balanced, her dice would look so cool by the time she made it to part 5. That's another thing, though.

So... Pentacle Ace works by essentially reading a situation, gauging whether Kyuuma would lose or gain a chance if she did something differently, and gives her the option to redo a situation.

I will say Pentacle Ace can't revert *only* dice rolls. There needs to be something extra for the ability to activate. ...but from there, she can redo the situation until the desired outcome is achieved.

Note. This doesn't fix dice rolls. Each roll is unique to the loop, and the exact outcome. So. Theoretically she could redo a situation infinitely, but it takes one hell of a mental toll.

She's also the only one aware of the redos. The only one remembered by other parties is the last one, whether she succeeds or fails. Once a redo loop starts, she has to either end it herself, or succeed.

A caveat for the dice. She can't get nat 1s or nat 20s in this state. The longer she goes, the more she redoes, the more the available numbers start to shrink until she's stuck rolling tens or elevens. It forces her to the middle of the curve.

So it's a giveaway for her ability if she starts rolling consecutive tens and just barely passing/failing checks.

It's also a giveaway of her ability if she takes a really high roll and then a low roll pm something else because she got what she needed.

The image of her being so done with a situation that she's only aware of and she's just redoing a half hour for a couple checks because it explicitly started at that point-

"12, 9, 17, 6, 11... That works. Freaking finally."

oh are we doing fun au night? ok au where the land of jojo's bizarre universe is just like dnd for all the stats and mathy bits. Like they don't have the same races or class or magic or whatever, they all just have a page with all their stats and notable information and everyone has to roll dice for almost everything (except for this where you're so good at doing it there's virtually no way to mess it up, like ringing a doorbell or something) but anyway I just think it'd be funny that Jonathan rolls like a 19 on the killing blow for Dio but because it wasn't a perfect 20 he barely survives. Just a thought

-fanfic author anon

SJRDBNVJDBFVDFBVD THIS REMINDS ME OF AN AU I MADE FOR A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT SHOW WAY BACK WHEN

basically the way the AU went was that at birth, every single person in the world has a special set of dice. It's impossible to steal, destroy or lose them, and any attempt to do so will backfire horribly on the person who tries. The stats and modifiers you mentioned are invisible to everyone except the person they belong to, and dice rolls happen whether the person wants it to or not, but most people prefer rolling the dice themselves for some semblance of control

so some possible thoughts:

what if Jonathan did roll a Nat 20 but because of Dio's new Vampiric Modifiers he managed to just barely survive

in turn, during the Stardust fight, Jotaro then manages to just barely defeat Dio as a bit of fun irony

Joseph's That Guy who seems to be perpetually cursed with shitty rolls EXCEPT for when it actually matters and he randomly starts getting back to back Nat 20s

Pucci is arguably even more of a fanatic this time because the Dice are essentially a "physical" manifestation of Fate

[m0ralitycore]

Reblogging again because I have more ideas.

( @starry-blue-echoes I did it again)

An explanation as to what everyone is in this universe because uh. *Cranks the unreality up to 11 with the Planetarium in this universe.*

Yaretzi- Pseudo-immortal soul that relies on blood to gain a physical form other than the bound object. Their last life was an Aztec girl named Metztli Cuacuas. Their mask was discovered via Part One. The foundation is under the impression she's a ghost. She is not. She is very much not. Cooperated a lot more before the corruption. Now she's just trying to steal enough blood to make a form and leave.

Ida- She's actually a ghost. Just one that's able to possess images of herself. Such as her reflection in her sword, and the painting. Would be completely capable of interacting with mirror/ alternate world/ pocket dimension stands.

Arute Takagetsu- ...Hamon and Stand User that wasn't human to begin with. They're a personification of fate that is able to bend things in their favor. Such as getting everyone to believe she's human. She can and will bend fate to try and help, but the foundation is onto her. People are working to get her classified as an SCP.

Madoka- Okay she's actually human. Part of the foundation's Security until they found out she was part of the Planetary Line and all of her human privileges vanished. She is very unhappy about this.

Kyuuma- She's part pillar in this timeline! Confused everyone when they caught her after the raid and things started not lining up. The cover story is that she's a non-mask Vampire. Which is... partially true. It's just that it woke up her pillar genes. Then shit hit the fan once she figured out her own abilities and escaped because she wasn't in a pillarperson proof cell.

Sorasaki Umi- She's human, it's just that her stand breaks the laws of space-time, physics, and what was thought possible. Galactic Nova is powerful as hell and she just uses it to avoid the foundation and keep wi-fi working in her pocket space outside of existence while she completes her college work. Will occasionally work with people outside of the foundation to stage break ins and outs. Has been an active threat since 1991.

Jinko- ...*head in hands*

She's a Pillar woman from a universe that no longer exists and can only interact with this universe through the mirror since the Foundation caught her. She is pissed about this and has decided to act through Kyuuma and Arute. She essentially achieved her world's version of Heaven, but not before the world was essentially destroyed. She and two others are now trapped. Except she's now double trapped by the Foundation and is actively planning murder. Is on a reality bending level and is the one behind the Planetarium line. They figured out she existed about a decade before Stardust Crusaders and trapped her just before it.

Yuuki- Anomalous in how she has been spotted multiple times and yet has apparently still been in Owl City, and in other cases, the sightings stretch back before she was born. She has yet to come across the cause but she isn't leaving that safe zone so the Foundation will have to deal with Owl City if they want to come take her.

So I just had

SUCH an angsty idea for the SCP Jotaro AU regarding Jolyne

What if Jotaro not being around wasn’t his choice. What if the SWF did some tests on Jolyne when she was born and while she seemed mostly human, they limited his contact with her because they didn’t want to risk her also becoming another SCP or for him to influence her

What if Jotaro had to fight tooth and nail to get the Foundation let him go save his daughter instead of some other agent. Heck, what if they didn’t agree and he hijacked the mission not giving a damn about the consequences

and what if….. what if when everything’s over and Pucci is killed and things become normal again because of Jotaro’s extra abilities…… Jolyne is forced to witness these consequences

she has to see her father treated as less than human, as some kind of dangerous monster who could lash out at any moment, as something incapable of thought or emotion like some kind of animal, not even being given the basic respect of calling him by his name and instead calling him by his SCP number

And she has to see her father just accept it. And its…… almost frightening, if she’s being honest. Confusing too. Barely hours prior she’d seen him spit insults and glares and beat a man nearly to death in a protective rage. He’s seemed to strong, so untouchable, nothing like the limp body she’d dragged to the submarine all those months ago and now……

Now he’s reminding her eerily of back then

He doesn’t fight as they put him in special cuffs, doesn’t so much as glare as they mistreat and insult him, if anything he goes through the motions with a practiced ease and that’s when it hits her that it’s because this is practiced he’s done this before he’s been treated like this before, treated like this enough times that he thinks it’s normal-

Maybe Jolyne tries to help him. Maybe Jotaro stops her. Maybe he explains that this is just protocol, that he’ll be put in an isolated cell on watch for a few weeks and if he’s good they’ll let him out again

She hates how much he knows about this

All I can say for certain is that in the next few days before that Jolyne is going to have a very emotional call with her grandma Holly

[m0ralitycore]

Shattered Glass Yaretzi doodle!

First try for her. I'll do a digital one when I have the time and energy.

Guilt over being a tool. After enough time passed, the Joestar family stopped seeing her as her, and instead seeing her as the mask.

(I have done so much research for her clothes I swear- it looks simple but gestures- no- also traditional hairstyle for her!)

@starry-blue-echoes Her!

[m0ralitycore]

.........so guess who just remembered the Hunger Games Simulator exists and is now probably going to spend way too long setting one up

[m0ralitycore]

(This ended up so much longer than I expected.)

Okay- I'll focus on the first four parts because that's where shit hits the fan this time.

First of all, Someone Please Help Yaretzi. This evil gentleman is trying to use the mask for evil and she can tell he's evil and lying and all of this is wrong help-

She tries to stop the mask from working on him with the patricide. Tries to stop the spikes. She is terrified of the idea of being stuck with him. Evil Jonathan reminds her of her death and Hello Trauma.

She's rescued by the end of the part by DIO temporarily, she talks to him before he vampires himself, and she... she doesn't stop it.

She doesn't like Joseph. She doesn't like Jonathan. She talked to Joseph before he was molded into what he turned into. Trying to steer him away. Ultimately it fails, and she is completely CRUSHED by this. Caesar steals the mask in an act of rebellion. She ends up with the Hamon Warriors and the Pillar Men.

...(I can't believe this of all aus is when I reveal the other aspect of Yaretzi's origin and connection to part 2.) Yaretzi's tribe is one of the places the Super Aja passed through. She met the Pillar Men. She was a child, who didn't know Hamon and cared a lot about the world around her, so she ends up at least not dead by their hands.

...then she got masked. Murdered, not turned. It's a Domino effect and her village is burned and eaten. The mask left in the rubble. So when she wakes up not in the base, with beings that are actually fighting the Joestars like Dio did, she's very, very happy to help.

Ida time. It's roughly the same, what happened to her. Except... no Vampire Ethel. She just gets killed protecting the castle like she did. So Ida fights, and fights, and fights until she can't. Escapes with her life, and a grudge. Teams up with the group fighting Jonathan and doesn't get to avenge her sister yet.

...she stays far more in contact with the others, this time around. She gets pulled on board for the Part 2 mess. Helping in the background and relaying information on now Jonathan fights. She wants to avenge her sister.

Then she meets Yaretzi. She'll fight for the ghost in the mask, too.

Arute is a strange case here. She likely gets called in because of being a warrior only. She doesn't meet Yaretzi until then because Yaretzi didn't mask-hop because the original one was still intact. So she's fighting to save the world and push back the threats. Likely ends up helping to found the equivalent of the Speedwagon Foundation, but in opposition of the Joestars because they freaking escaped again and dammit if she doesn't make it difficult for them.

She's around until the end. Hamon extended lifespan, baby! She's gonna kill a vampire and keep teaching Hamon. Probably helps find Dio and fills him in on how things went down. She also probably helped with the stand issue for everything. Fellow Feeling time, baby! Not gonna be there for the raid because she is half the duct tape on the foundation but she's there in spirit.

Now... Madoka and Kyuuma. These two change the most.

Madoka's part of the brainwashed camp. She turned to being a hired killer after Kyuuma disappeared (was taken in by the foundation in secret).

Got a stand and roped into the Joestar Plan. I imagine her stand stays the same as the original, her soul really wasn't changed. So, she keeps Ace of Coins.

Kyuuma would have been working with the foundation since she was a young teen. Her story fundamentally changes, but the people she's around stay the same.

She sticks with the minions until the big showdown, where she's able to team up with others to save Madoka.

I imagine she ends up a vampire still, but it's Yaretzi's advice, not Dio's fault. Now, she gets sent to Morioh. Because there's a lead one of the Joestars went there and if there is, she's going to raise hell. I imagine she ends up befriending some of the group.

(also Rohan keeps trying to use Heaven's Door on her and she is having none of that. There's Foundation secrets in there, dammit!)

I dub her new stand: The Calling, after The Amazing Devil's song.

Her official assignment is to invest the crime spike, and capture the arrow. Her unofficial assignment is to a. Beat the shit out of Jotaro, and b. Keep possible allies out of harm's way.

This is not easy at all. She's going to kill someone at this rate and Kira hasn't even shown himself.

Kyuuma needs a goddamn vacation and it's only June. Arute is her phone contact and she is on speed-dial because she has the braincells.

(Now, I need Yaretzi to have gotten emotionally adopted by DIO she deserves it- reunion hell yeah- she's there in the corner telling stories.)

10. Valentine (not going to elaborate)

10. I recognize canon has made a decision, but given that it's a stupid-ass decision, I've elected to ignore it (+ what should have happened)

The fact this absolute moron was able to somehow convince Other Diego to go along with his plan?

Nah, not in my mental head canon. In my version of events Valentine just freaking yoinked him without any warning and Other Diego, genuinely having no idea what was going on or what Valentine's power was, just ends up continuing and finishing the race. Johnny would be the one to engage the ensuing fight, but mostly out of confusion and a belief that this was a trap set by Valentine (which it technically was in several ways)

maybe if you really wanna mess around with the Infinite Alternate Universes idea you could play around with the idea of Valentine specifically yoinking him from a universe where Johnny was actually the Big Bad, just to ensure it would work out

[m0ralitycore]

My motivation strikes again I'm sorry if I get annoying with my characters- but oh my god this keeps happening, the aus make me think about oc ripples and it grabs me by the throat-

I'll ask permission for the biggol breakdown but for now I will say Ida's going to find a way to pull his own mainverse moves on him with a sword. She does not know Hamon but she is very, very mad.

10. Valentine (not going to elaborate)

10. I recognize canon has made a decision, but given that it's a stupid-ass decision, I've elected to ignore it (+ what should have happened)

[m0ralitycore]

So many goddamn ideas I'm sorry but Planetarium hijacking because fuck these guys would fit in so well- not Plot Important except maybe two but *vibrations*

Status Report of Planetary Line:

Yaretzi- Mercury. Status: Contained. Still bound to the stone mask. Tests are performed to see if her existence has affected the stone mask. It has not. It works fine. Whenever she is activated she makes attempts to a. Reach Santana, or b. Reach Takagetsu Arute, who is on this list later. Or c. Escape entirely because she doesn't like this anymore. They're all mean to her. They used to not be so mean.

Ida Edevane- Venus. Status: Contained in the foundation. Ghost. She's able to inhabit her sword, a painting of her, or is forced into her cell. She has grown increasingly discontent with her situation, and has been attempting to contact anyone who will listen to her. The staff worry she is losing her mind. This could have been prevented if you thought of her as a sentient being you corrupt fucks. Used to talk to Speedwagon on the regular when he was alive. Watched the corruption happen, has a detailed report ready, but has been increasingly stripped of all privileges in the name of safety.

Takagetsu Arute- Sensei- Neptune. Status: Employed by the foundation to avoid being put into a cell. Senior employee, one of the few to live and know why the place was founded at all. Willing to work with damn near anyone to remake the place. Her Stand, Hamon, and her Planetary Mark make her a Person of Interest. She straddles the line between employee and SCP. Has been trying to use this to her advantage, but after an outburst at Jotaro's treatment, has been relegated to a temporary holding cell. Will raise hell upon being given the signal and a chance.

Yoshishiki Madoka- Uranus. Status: Monitored. Is under constant surveillance by the foundation to prevent her from making contact with her line. Currently in contact with Takagetsu via a burner phone and is providing information on the down low to the surviving Crusaders. The surveillance has really only made her paranoid and pissed off.

Kao Aozora- Mars. Status: Escaped. Was brought into custody after the raid on DIO's mansion. Has been arguing for her freedom since. Five years later, she managed to gain enough strength to escape the foundation and has been on the run since. Made contact with Passione and has decided to help under the condition that she isn't brought in once the reforms happen. She was experimented on for years due to her status as a non-mask Vampire and never wants to relive that.

Sorasaki Umi- Jupiter. Status: Uncontainable. Their stand prevents staff and agents from tracking them down, let alone taking them into custody. A lead was temporarily brought up when it was found they were taking online college classes, but has ultimately been dropped when no useful information was found.

Sorasaki Jinko- Saturn. Status: Partially contained. Held in an anomalous mirror in high security, she has been unable to cross over into reality since 1985. Her true form is Uncontainable. The bandage solution will have to do. Has made repeated escape attempts via reality warping, but none have been successful.

Hajimu Yuuki- Terra. Status: Free. There have been no successful attempts in gaining access to the anomalous center of Owl City.

So I just had

SUCH an angsty idea for the SCP Jotaro AU regarding Jolyne

What if Jotaro not being around wasn’t his choice. What if the SWF did some tests on Jolyne when she was born and while she seemed mostly human, they limited his contact with her because they didn’t want to risk her also becoming another SCP or for him to influence her

All I can say for certain is that in the next few days before that Jolyne is going to have a very emotional call with her grandma Holly

[m0ralitycore]

Two cents. DO BOTH.

Silly Sort Of An AU(?) idea

So you know how Time Fuckery Stands technically affect everything? What if Star and by extent Jotaro had been more….. attuned, let’s say, with Stand Time Fuckery. Not just The World’s time stop, but also stuff like Bites The Dust and King Crimson. Any and all Time Manipulation Stands being used Jotaro is aware of. It doesn’t mean he can do anything, but he’s aware that something’s not right

For example, on the way over to Egypt Jotaro would just have these inexplicable moments where everything would just. Stop. He couldn’t move, could speak, couldn’t even breath, but he was aware

And maybe after a while..... Jotaro starts learning how to move during those moments where everything stops. It's a slow process, but every time he can move for a pinch longer. What starts as only blinks becomes finger twitches which becomes short movements, more and more and more until he can move through the frozen moments like it's normal. Sometimes everything stops at inopportune moments, like in the middle of conversations, but other times it can be useful, like in the middle of a Stand Fight

Then even after Egypt, sometimes there will be moments where everything..... jumps. He can't do much to prepare or figure out how to stop it, but he notices when nobody else does and it drives him up a wall

and then when he goes to Morioh he has this sense of...... offness. Deja vu. Like everything in the last hour was incredibly familiar but he couldn't quite remember when

Needed to write a blurb because this au grabbed me by the throat.

He's only more aware of it once he knows what Star Platinum is. It happens first on the plane. Stuck with his eyes closed, when the silence hits.

Someone pressed pause on the universe, and he's the only one who can hear the quiet. He can't move. Can't do as much as open his eyes, twitch a finger, or summon Star.

As soon as it happens, it's done. Like nothing happened. The hum of the plane resumes and he opens his eyes. Suddenly aware of the possibility of a stand.

He's right, it's just not what froze everything. The fly goes down. Then the plane.

The freezing keeps happening. A gap in the world only he's aware of. Frozen in place. Like everyone, everything else. Eventually he moves his eyes during the moments. It takes so much, so much more than he wanted to admit, to do one simple action like blinking, but he manages.

It gets more frequent when they get closer to Egypt. To killing DIO.

He's able to twitch his fingers now. Blink. Take in his surroundings in the in-between of seconds.

When he's finally there, he can hear the ticking. The incessant ticking of a clock coming from the mansion. He finds the source when the sun goes down. It's coming from 「The World」.

It also comes from Star Platinum, much quieter. Only aware of it in the absence of the other broken clock. He can move. He can fight.

He's won. The price far too steep.

The clock he's able to pause ticking into infinity.

Silly Sort Of An AU(?) idea

So you know how Time Fuckery Stands technically affect everything? What if Star and by extent Jotaro had been more….. attuned, let’s say, with Stand Time Fuckery. Not just The World’s time stop, but also stuff like Bites The Dust and King Crimson. Any and all Time Manipulation Stands being used Jotaro is aware of. It doesn’t mean he can do anything, but he’s aware that something’s not right

For example, on the way over to Egypt Jotaro would just have these inexplicable moments where everything would just. Stop. He couldn’t move, could speak, couldn’t even breath, but he was aware

And maybe after a while..... Jotaro starts learning how to move during those moments where everything stops. It's a slow process, but every time he can move for a pinch longer. What starts as only blinks becomes finger twitches which becomes short movements, more and more and more until he can move through the frozen moments like it's normal. Sometimes everything stops at inopportune moments, like in the middle of conversations, but other times it can be useful, like in the middle of a Stand Fight

Then even after Egypt, sometimes there will be moments where everything..... jumps. He can't do much to prepare or figure out how to stop it, but he notices when nobody else does and it drives him up a wall

and then when he goes to Morioh he has this sense of...... offness. Deja vu. Like everything in the last hour was incredibly familiar but he couldn't quite remember when

(well you got the rambling in another ask lol)

I'm calling the au Lunar Eclipse for the hell of it-

Extra angst-

Jonathan talking to her when doing research. Telling stories about her brief life. He's fascinated. It feeds his passion.

Yaretzi being unable to stop Dio because the vampire transformation superceded her manifestation, and she wakes up next to the broken window. Watching Dio tear through the police. She fades when the fire starts. Goes back to her slumber in the mask.

Then wakes up when Dio starts gathering minions. She doesn't manifest. She hides.

She wakes up for the last time in that era when the mask is found in the castle.

Jonathan talks to her before Speedwagon breaks the mask. She says hello. She says goodbye. Wishes them luck. Some part of her knows they won't meet again.

I have remembered that Jonathan is canonically interested in archeology and I love that.

However. I'm looking at why he has that interest and I have ideas. It's because of his mom, and the Stone Mask. It's attributed to an Aztec tribe in canon, since this was pre-pillar men existence.

I have... One oc that fits the time period bill. Yaretzi, or the only name she can remember, a very botched Stone Mask sacrifice because of the simple fact that she was a kid, and her brain wasn't developed enough yet. She was about twelve. (I'd go on a tangent as to why this works but tldr brain stabbing doesn't work on underdeveloped brains.)

Instead of becoming a vampire, she just died. Because of the extra traumatic death (ritual sacrifice that goes against literally all of her religious learnings, being ripped away from her mother, and being twelve), she ends up possessing the mask. What's important is that if there was blood recently, she can make a form for herself and run with the mask.

... I'm thinking, for both angst and humor, it was the mask that Mary Joestar eventually buys. She gets discovered after the first fight between Jonathan and Dio. She grabs the mask and runs, to get it away from the two very clearly enemies.

She uh, doesn't get far.

I am giving Jonathan another reason to be interested in archeology by force.

OOOOOOOOOO Y E S S S SS S S S S S

also I am. Extremely curious in what you mean by “brain stabbing doesn't work on underdeveloped brains” would you mind elaborating
