#except like... GIR. he just doesn't have the personality for a ship to work for me

[shoechoe]

im not particularly into romantic ships !! (but i like contributing 2 ask games) sooo hmm... whats ur favorite canon friendship or dynamic ? or one u'd like to see in jjba?

Don't worry- I like this ask too.

I wouldn't say I have one canon (non-romantic) character dynamic in particular that I would consider my favorite, but I can list a few of them in no particular order:

-Polnareff and Abdul (I also think the ship is pretty cute)

-Diavolo and Doppio (I find this one the most fun to think & talk about for obvious reasons)

-Trish and Bruno

-Yasuho and Josuke (8) (this one was sort of implied-romantic, but I'll count it)

-Josuke (4) and Okuyasu

-Jolyne, Foo Fighters & Hermes

I also really would've liked to see what an interaction between Doppio and Trish would've looked like- both of them were criminally underused and it's a shame.

I get very excited about character dynamics, but I don't really care much for romantic ships myself either. When I say I "like" a ship, most of the time what I mean by that is if a mutual or friend is into it, I'll nod and give a thumbs up from the sidelines or maybe think "oh, that's kind of cute, sure". The only times I get the "shippy" feelings that I assume are the main appeal of shipping is if I care about one or preferably both characters very, very much, which just doesn't happen often. (Also, I get kind of irrationally territorial about characters I care about to that level, so I'd probably only trust ship art from me and a few people lol.)

The Book v2 chapter 5

-Jea seems to be completely drawn into her comic-

Jenifer: She'll be like that until she's done with it.

Jenifer: We might as well leave her be.

-she walks out of the room-

Chris turns into a pup and runs off

*follows jenifer*

-Mr. Kon pulls into the driveway-

Chris waits at the door

-he opens the door-

Chris just stays

-not noticing Chris, he steps over him-

He whimpers

*whispers to Jenifer* oh shit that’s your dad. i’ll be in the attic *teleports to attic*

Mr. Kon: oh sorry gir-- Boy, forgot Jea brought you home.

Chris jumps on him

-Jenifer walks in-

"Hey dad."

Mr. Kon: Hey Jenny. Where's your sister?

Jenifer: She's in her room reading.

Mr. Kon: Okay.

Chris follows mr. Kon

-he goes to his room-

Chris doesn't go in

Mr. Kon: I'm pretty worn out so I'm gonna take a nap. Wake me up in 30 minutes.

Jenifer: Okay.

-he closes his door down goes to sleep-

-Jenifer sits on the couch and turns o the tv-

-30 min later, Jea comes out of her room-

-She crawls out of her room groaning-

Jenifer: What's wrong?

Jea: That book was so boring. I need something to interest me.

Jea: When was the last time you spoke with Leah?

Jenifer: THAT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!

Jea: As your TWIN sister, your love life is 65% my business.

Jenifer: Your logic is invalid

Jenifer: Also, keep your voice down before someone hears you -she points to the roof and to Chris-

Chris was sleeping at the door

Jea: Sorry.

-she scoots back into her room-

Jenifer: Oh yeah, dad. HEY DAD, WAKE UP!

-Mr. Kon literally rolls out of bed and falls onto the floor-

Mr. Kon: Ow. Thanks Jenny!

-he takes a while to change into a casual outfit then steps outside-

He steps on chris who was sleeping

Mr. Kon: Sorry about that boy!

-he picks him up-

He yawns

-he pets the spot he stepped on-

Mr. Kon: Jenny, I'm gonna be back pretty late. I'll leave you girls some money to order some food.

He licks mr. Kon's face

-Mr. Kon holds Chris away from his face-

He whines

Mr. Kon: No licking the face.

Mr. Kon: You're adorable but no.

-he puts him down-

Jenifer: Where are you headed?

He stands on his hind legs

Mr. Kon: Oh I'm just going out to hang with a.. Friend.

Jea [in her room]: My shipping senses are tingling.

-she peeks her head out her room door- "Who's the girl?"

Chris didn't want him to go

-Mr. Kon heads out the door-

Jea: Aw, he didn't answer my question.

Jea: Where'd that Jeff guy go?

-Jenifer takes a broom then beats on the roof-

*jeff hears the beating and teleports down to jea's room* Wuzzup? i was up there forever

Jea: AH! OUT!!!

fine. jeez. *walks out into the hallway*

Chris whimpers

Jenifer: I swear you pop in there while she's changing, I'm gonna kill you.

Jenifer: What's wrong Chris?

"I didn't want him to leave..."

Jenifer: Now you're free to speak or return to your human form. And Jeff doesn't have to camp out in the roof.

*sarcastically says* damn. i liked it up there. all the heat and mold.

Chris laughs

Jenifer: By the way, how well could you hear us from up there?

all i heard was that knocking

-she sighs with relief-

and i heard someone yell

Jenifer: Oh yeah, that was me waking up my dad.

ah

-there's a knock at the door-

should i hide?

-there's a voice from outside-

"that won't be necessary."

*shocked* what the fuck?

-Jenifer grabs a bat then creeps up to the door and opens it-

Man in lab coat and bow tie: Here's Johnny!

Jolly Johnny: God I love that movie.

damn that’s creepy as fuck.

Jea: AH IT'S THE GUY FROM THE COMIC!

Chris attacks him "GO AWAY"

-Jea puts on a tin foil hat-

Jolly Johnny: You know that doesn't work right?

"who are you?"

Jolly Johnny: Name's Jolly Johnny nice to meet ya, Jeff!

Chris jumps at him and scratches him

how the hell do you know who i am?

Jea: He's the psychotic psychic from my book!

ah got it

nice to meet ya psychotic psychic jolly johnny.

-Chris scratched an illusion-

Jolly Johnny: Calm down your "dog" or I'll have him kill himself.

ok don’t do that. i actually kinda like him

yo chris calm down

He growls and leaves to another room

Jolly Johnny: Wanna see a cool trick?

depends on what the trick is.

-Jolly Johnny mind controls Jeff to teleport a soda into his hands-

Jolly Johnny: Thanks.

*jeff not realizing he did this* whoah. you can teleport things to you?

Jolly Johnny: Yeah, let's go with that.

that’s awesome

Jea: How are you real!?

Jolly Johnny: That comic book you have was given to you by someone with A LOT of power. It's sort of a window into my life.

Jea: So the other characters are..

Jolly J: Yeap.

Jea: How come no one else can..

Jolly J: The person who gave it to you favors you.

so what are you doing here?

Jolly Johnny: I came here to meet y'all. You're crazy enough to drop people from roofs, Chris has the potential to kick ass but acts like a pussy, and Jea caught the eye of SIB.

Jea: SIB?

Jolly Johnny: The guy who gave you that book.

Chris barks at him

Jenifer: Wow, so I'm the only normal one here? -she shrugs-

yeah. that was hilarious and that idiotic normie deserved it.

Jolly Johnny: You people interest me but... I feel myself growing bored of you.

damn. harsh...

-Jea has a worried look-

ima go get food. *teleports away and then teleports back with ice cream in hand*

Jolly Johnny: Don't worry Jea. If I toyed with you, I'd likely get killed off.

*mouth full of ice cream* damn jea. what can you do?

Jolly Johnny: Oh no, not her. I'd be killed off by SIB. He's one of the only people who can actually kill me.

oh

Jolly Johnny: He's over powered even for my taste.

well this dude sounds awesome *plops down on the couch*

so when do we get to meet SIB?

*stuffs mouth with ice cream*

Jolly Johnny: I literally know everything except that.

i doubt you know everything

Jolly Johnny: Their is a universe with beings who's power is to know everything except the future and I read their minds.

oh damn. fine. what’s my birthday?

Jolly Johnny: June 4th 2058.

holy shit

that’s creepy

Jolly Johnny: Even if I didn't read their minds, I'd know that from your mind.

true

well how’d you know i dropped someone off a roof. did you get that from reading my mind?

Jolly Johnny: I got that from Blake Taio. The art teacher.

oh that teacher who came up to the roof.

Jolly Johnny: Yep. He's on my list of minds I'm constantly reading.

whys he so special?

Jolly Johnny: I can't see ghosts, he can. I read his mind, I see ghosts.

Jolly Johnny: He's one of the original seven Divine Guardians.

Jolly Johnny: Oh you don't know what that is. Poor poor uneducated boy.

that’s awesome... and one of the what?

Jolly Johnny: The first seven Divine Guardians are the first Ultra Beings in each universe.

oh ok

Jolly Johnny: a Divine Guardian doesn't just have abilities though. When they die, they reincarnate.

are you one of those?

Jolly Johnny: Yes but I am not one of the original seven.

Jolly Johnny: I am the Guardian of minds.

Jolly Johnny: Your universe doesn't have a Guardian of Minds.

Jenifer: How do these "Divine Guardians" get their abilities?

Jolly Johnny: I'd tell ya but SIB wants that classified.

*sarcastically* can i be one? *chuckles*

Jolly Johnny: Possibly but at the moment, you're not strong enough. I became a guardian because I'm the strongest telepathy from my universe. And even then, it's a bit more complicated than that.

Jolly Johnny: There are 13 Divine Guardians in this universe and 14 from mine.

wow. i was joking, but i didn’t think you would say it’s possible

Jolly Johnny: The originals were born as Divine Guardians. All divine guardians that came after were born Ultra Beings and later became Divine Guardians.

-he yawns- "I've never been this bored before. I've been playing story teller for much too long."

Jolly Johnny: Jea, take a nap.

-she falls asleep-

Jolly Johnny: Time to have some fun. -he gains a creepy smile-

-Jolly Johnny turns and looks at Chris-

Jolly Johnny: Lets see what you've got mutt. -he tales out a knife and brainwashes him into returning to his human form-

aww cmon don’t hurt chris. he’s one of the few people i like.

Jolly Johnny: I don't plan to kill him. Just roughen him up a bit. That is, unless he decides to "man" up and fights back.

*thinks a bit about that soda thing* wait... how did you teleport something if you’re just a psychic?

Jolly j: The same way I just turned your dog into a human. By manipulating his powers

Jolly j: in other words, you gave it to me unintentionally

wait... i did that?

-something red appears in Jeff's hands-
