Summary
“Why are you here?” Jotaro asks quietly. It’s so direct that it makes Kakyoin pause. He had forgotten that Jotaro hated beating around the bush.
“I could ask you the same question,” Kakyoin scoffs. “I know how to board a bus and get to a hotel on my own, you patronizing-”
“When Jiji said they were sending someone else he seriously meant you?” Jotaro questions, seemingly more to himself than anyone else, considering how he hunches inward, voice so quiet it’s almost hard to hear over the waves.
Kakyoin blinks, the heat of anger pausing in his chest due to overwhelming shock at the pure audacity. Kakyoin blinks again, and the anger resumes, about 20 degrees hotter. “Excuse me?”

Part 4 AU where Kakyoin is alive but at a cost. As he figures out how to pay that cost, he tries to help wrangle the Morioh kids while also trying not to strangle Jotaro (it'd be nice if they could also learn how to communicate again too, but Kakyoin attempts to be realistic).

Summary
Kakyoin shrugs, and Jotaro rolls his eyes, even as he lets him coax his shoulders down away from his ears with small brushes of his thumb, as if telling him, Down boy, as if he’s a dog.
Do dogs feel loved like this?
The thought makes Jotaro’s breath catch in his throat. Is this love? Is that what it is? Does he want it to be?
-
Jotaro's never been around someone who makes him feel safe before, and it ironically makes him quite scared.

Summary
The boring parts of Jotaro and Kakyoin's life, and why they're the best parts, too.
OR: various prompt fills from Tumblr for a challenge I gave myself to see if I could write about the most boring/mundane activities if they were being done by Jotaro and Kakyoin. Evidently yes, yes I could.

Summary
“Do you know how to waltz, Jojo?” Kakyoin asks from under his rain-slick bangs, the strands of red unable to hide the squint of his violent eyes as his smile reaches them.
Jotaro does know how to waltz. His father was a jazz musician, his mother raised on swing music – he knows how to waltz, and swing, and even some disco moves.
“No,” Jotaro utters, and Kakyoin’s smile widens.

After Jotaro's attempt at smoking goes wrong with a sudden rainstorm, he and Kakyoin find a new way to spend the time they have at their latest hotel.

Summary
When Jotaro kisses him for the first time, in their hotel room near the Saudi Arabian desert, Kakyoin doesn’t even register it as a kiss.
Later, when Kakyoin and Jotaro are alone in the latter’s room for the first time since Kakyoin was discharged from the hospital, Jotaro cups his jaw and swoops in, and Kakyoin loses his voice.
Further on, when Kakyoin is considering putting his book away and getting ready for bed, Jotaro enters their bedroom with a soft groan, crawls into the space next to Kakyoin, and meets him halfway when Kakyoin leans in.

Summary
“Jotaro,” he says softly, and Jotaro shudders, grips the hem of his pants tightly, and looks up at Kakyoin with a watery eye.
“She said she gets to make the decisions now, and she wants her dad back. She wants me to give her her dad back,” he gasps, and Kakyoin blinks, lips parting in mild shock. Jotaro’s grip tightens, his hands shaking with the force of it, but he spits out, “if I can’t give him back, she’ll leave. But she wants him back. She- she wants-”

Summary
Jotaro hums, closing his eye again, only to shoot them open, letting out an oof when Kakyoin has Hierophant gracelessly flop him on top of Jotaro.
Kakyoin echoes the sound, grunting, and Jotaro groans. “Noriaki,” he complains breathlessly, and Kakyoin chuckles, his breath fanning across Jotaro’s collarbones, making Jotaro swallow. Kakyoin shifts and Jotaro wheezes because now his elbow is digging right underneath his sternum, and ow-
“Noriaki,” Jotaro complains again, louder, his voice husky with exhaustion, and Kakyoin chuckles again.

Summary
“You knew exactly what would happen if you pulled that stunt, I know you did, and I know that’s why you pulled it!” Polnareff says, his voice gravely and loud and hurt, and Avdol can feel the backs of his eyes burning, his chest unsure if it’s burning or frozen solid.
“... Polnareff,” Avdol croaks, “I wasn’t- I just- I wanted you s-”
“STOP- STOP TRYING TO DIE-!” Polnareff’s voice cracks, and he shudders, slumping in his seat. Avdol can only watch with wide eyes.

Summary
“It’s nothing like that,” Kakyoin spits, and Jotaro jerks his gaze to him, brows furrowed. “My scarf just got ripped by that damn bastard.”
Joseph blinks, rising from his defensive position. “Oh. Uhm. I’m sorry. I can take a look at it tomorrow if you want?”
Kakyoin scoffs quietly. “Do you just have sewing materials on hand?”
Joseph falters then. “I…hm. I actually would, but with our supplies being lost with the camels…”
Kakyoin sighs gruffly, on the edge of coming out like a growl. “Then don’t- don’t worry about it.” His voice is stiff.

After the fight with The Sun, Kakyoin bitches about his scarf being ripped, and Jotaro decides to mend it.

Summary
“It’ll be the Year of the Snake, you know. In the Chinese zodiac,” Kakyoin elaborates loosely as he shrugs off his overcoat and then crawls into his sleeping bag. Jotaro watches him halfheartedly from where he lies on his side near Avdol, the heat radiating from the man like a warm furnace. Jotaro feels like a cat in a sunbeam and blinks sleepily.
“Bah, who cares about that,” Joseph snarks as he rolls over to face away from the campfire again, nestled in his sleeping bag. “It’s all made up anyway.”
Kakyoin scoffs, glaring at the man, the orange in his eyes winking like the stars above them. “Says the man who forced us to celebrate Christmas last week.”

Summary
“So…”
Jotaro lifts a brow as he raises his head from the hotel bed, frowning at the sticky feeling of sweat that becomes noticeable on his forehead due to the motion, eyes heavy-lidded and growing heavier with irritation over how Kakyoin is tapping his foot as if he’s impatient with him.
“What?” He snaps as he starts digging in his pockets, the frayed fabric catching against the scabs forming over his knuckles, making him wince before he balls his fist around his nearly-empty cigarette carton and rips it out.
Kakyoin clicks his tongue. “Coconuts? Hello? Are you still gonna come with me?”
-
After Yellow Temperance and the debriefing that came with it, Jotaro and Kakyoin go get coconuts and try to figure each other out. The results are mixed.

Summary
Their bed is warm, early morning light pouring in from their open window in blue streams. It’s early enough to go back to sleep, and Jotaro plans on doing so. He can smell Kakyoin’s mango-scented shampoo and coconut body wash. Jotaro can’t bite back a smile, pressing even closer, moving to wrap his arms around Kakyoin, fingers pressing into the discs where his spine meets his neck.
“Jojo,” Kakyoin chuckles, “you’re so clingy.”
Jotaro grumbles, but his good mood can’t be diminished with a soft comment.

Retired 40-something-year-olds Jotaro and Kakyoin have nowhere to be this morning.

Summary
“Excuse me?”
Jotaro jumps, jerking his head up, only to feel his face grow cold and clammy as the blood drains away from it.
A young woman – probably 18 or so – stands a couple of meters away from Jotaro. She has the same red hair, a similar curl coming to rest at the side of her face. She has the same thin brows, furrowing in suspicion and confusion. She has one of his earrings, the red bead shining brightly from where it rests near her throat.
Jotaro’s breath catches. The woman’s eyes narrow slightly. Just like Kakyoin.
“Who are you?”

After ten years, closure is an option. They just need to decide if they deserve it, first.
