Lia's DiU Interactions. Part 1: Josuke Higashikata.
Where Josuke finds out the relationship between the newest people in his life is more complicated than he expected.
Warnings: Not really? There's just a small mention of the death of Josuke's grandfather.
Note: This is one of the small one-shots I plan on writing to shape Lia's relationship with the DiU cast. It's been a while since I've written something (and even more since I've shared it here), so I'm really excited and hopeful for writing more bits like this. Enjoy! Reblogs and comments are really appreciated!

. Monday, 3:30 pm.
The choir of pens scrambling over paper was the only sound carrying through the classroom, accompanied by the faint whisper of the wind brushing against the windows.
Β γγΌγ³γ³γΌγ³γ«γΌγ³γ³γΌγ³ ~
Β The Westminster Quarters echoed through the hallways of the school, signalling that another day had finished. Students inside the classrooms began gathering their belongings, some with more eagerness than others, as they waited for the daily end-of-day announcements.
Β Announcements carried quickly: cleaning duties, reminders about projects and upcoming exams, as well as small issues concerning the school staff.
Β βPlease make sure you have all your belongings with you,β Lia's voice carried after the class leaders finished. βShould you forget something, come look for it at my desk tomorrow.β
Β She watched as the groups of teens flooded through the door, already walking between the seats in case anything was left behind. However, she stopped at a specific desk, tapping its surface a couple of times with her fingernail to draw the occupant's attention.
Β Josuke Higashikata.Β
Β Average student. Generally unproblematic, leaving aside his uniform's modifications. And yet, several teachers had reported a sudden dip in his performance.
Β And honestly, how could he not? With family problems and the βsuddenβ passing of his grandfather (because, of course, that's the public information; who knows what people would do if told that the poor man had been ripped from the inside by some sentient blob of water?), it was almost insulting for him to be expected to behave as if such an event was just another Tuesday.
βI need to talk with you. Come see me at the office once you're free, please.β She looked down at him briefly, watching as his face went through several phases of confusion and worry. βItβs not a bad thing, per se. I just want to discuss something with you.β
Β Relief quickly washed over him, yet it was clear that he was still nervous about the idea.
Not wanting to fuel his anxiety further, Lia returned to the desk, gathering her own things before exiting the classroom.Β
Β The halls of the institute had quickly gone empty, with only the students who were part of clubs remaining and hurriedly walking to their designated areas.Β
Β At the shokuinshitsu, only a couple of teachers remained, most likely taking their time grading assignments and a couple of tests. Even so, after many years, it was still impressive to Lia that a room shared by many had enough privacy to work and even hold small meetings with students.
Β She sat at her desk, waiting for Josuke to arrive, going through notes for the following week and pending assignments, scoffing as she found a sticky note with another complaint from Satoshi-sensei, the math teacher, yet again complaining about students' lack of engagement in the class.
Β Without a second thought, she crumpled the note, throwing it in the trash can under her desk with a scoff, once more annoyed that the man always ignored whatever advice was given and instead kept behaving like it was everyone's fault but his.
Β Just as she was contemplating whether to finally drop the passive-aggressive politeness and finally tell the man just how incompetent he was, the door to the shared office slid open, and Josukeβs face peeked inside.
Β βCome on now,β she raised her hand without looking towards the door, listening to the couple of footsteps growing near.
Β Her pen stilled over her notes, a small frown forming on her face.
Β βApologies, I'm afraid you'll have to wait outside; it is required for this conversation to be private.β She finally turned her chair around, noticing the way both kids seemed surprised as they stopped.
 Koichi stood beside Josuke, clearly having hoped to stick around to hear what the conversation was about. It was a common practice by the kid, or at least she could guess so by the way he constantly stayed glued to Josuke's side whenever something happened to him⦠and the way Jotaro had somehow allowed him to be around while explaining the problem with Angelo, or so Noriaki said.
Β The kids looked at each other before Hirose finally left, although not without hesitating for a couple of seconds. The door clicked shut as it slid closed, leaving them with only the few teachers who were nose-deep in their work.
Β βYou can sit if you want, Shimizu-sensei wonβt be back until the club activities are over.β She signaled to a chair on the desk adjacent to hers, watching as Josuke awkwardly sat on the chair, his hands fidgeting on his lap as he waited.
Β She scoffed lightly in amusement before clearing her throat.
Β βI donβt wish to take too much time, so Iβll go straight to the point.β Lia reached behind herself, fetching a small notebook and pen without breaking eye contact. βIt has been reported by several of your teachers that your performance in your classes has decreased severely compared to the start of the yearβ¦β
Β She noticed the way the teen grimaced to himself, aware of the obvious. To this, she let out a small sigh, taking a small look around the office before lowering her voice.
Β βListen, I know what the issue is, and I find it quite stupid for everyone to be complaining when the reason is obvious...βΒ
Β Josukeβs shoulders eased slightly, yet there was a faint glimpse of sadness in his eyes, most likely for remembering his grandfather.Β
Β βIβll try to knock some sense into the other teachersβ eh, figuratively speaking. But I want you to keep in mind that if there is anything you need to speak about, please donβt hesitate to reach out.β
Β βItβsβ¦ complicated.β The teen scratched the back of his neck, seemingly recalling the events of the past few days. Lia couldnβt help but chuckle, easing her expression to help him feel less anxious.
Β Perhaps it was cruel in a way, hellβ it was even annoying for her. But as per Jotaroβs and Noriakiβs request, her identity as a stand user had yet to be revealed to Josuke, mostly to have the upper hand in case any weirdos tried breaking havoc at Budogaoka High School.
Β βTrust me, there arenβt many things that can surprise me nowadays.β
Β He seemed to hesitate for a moment before nodding, although it was clear that he did it for the sake of getting the conversation over with.
Β βAlright then, off you go.β She leaned forward once more, cupping her mouth, βBetween you and me, this conversation was more protocol than anything. I trust youβll get back on track in no time.β
Β She shooed him playfully, watching as Josuke bowed quickly before leaving the office, finally leaving her to her pending tasks.

Β Liaβs wristwatch gave a small beep as the hour changed, finally having reached the end of her workday.
Β She stood with a heavy sigh, stacking the multiple papers and assignments inside their designated space at her desk before swinging her bag over her shoulder. She dragged herself through the school's hallways, giving polite smiles to the students leaving.
Β As the schoolβs gates came into view, Liaβs stomach rumbled, making her pout slightly.
Β βCanβt wait to see what Nori made for dinnerβ¦β she mumbled to herself, rubbing her face with her hands.
Β Yet, as she turned left towards the route she usually took to go home, she came to a halt, noticing Josuke and Koichi speaking with no other than Jotaro.
Β β...Iβm waiting for someone.βΒ
Β She barely managed to hear Jotaroβs murmuring, obviously not wanting to disclose any extra information aboutβ¦ whatever they were talking about. And yet, Josuke carried a sense of curiosity that shielded any indication of the manβs growing annoyance.
Β βOh! Is it someone important?β
Β Lia held back a chuckle as she began walking again, finally catching the trioβs attention.
Β βI had expected you two to be home by now, since youβre not part of any clubs.β She glanced briefly at the teens before turning towards Jotaro. βNot getting in trouble, I hope?β
Β βSensei!β both teens exclaimed simultaneously.
Β βWe were justβ¦ around.β Josuke chuckled nervously before noticing the shared gazes between Jotaro and Lia.Β
Β Yet, before Lia could utter a word, Josuke awkwardly placed an arm over Jotaroβs shoulder, much to the man's irritation.
Β βBy the way! Lia-sensei, Jotaro-san. Heβs, uhβ¦ a friend.β
Β βIs that so?β she scoffed playfully, lightly shaking her head. βAnyway, I believe itβs best if you go, I wouldnβt want your mothers to get worried.β
Β Koichi was quick to check his wristwatch, instantly panicking as he finally noticed the hour and how the sky was slowly darkening. And with how protective his mother was, she probably was already at the door waiting for him.Β
Β Finally, Lia turned to face Jotaro fully.
Β βArenβt you feeling sweet today? I didn't expect you to come pick me up.β she teased, smiling playfully.
Β Jotaro only grunted in response, tilting his head down to make eye contact before turning to leave, to which Lia followed. Yet, that small interaction was enough to make both kids freeze in their spots.
Β βWait, wait, wait.β Josuke's gaze switched between both adults, confusion etched all over his face. βYou know each other?!β
Β βOf course we do.β Lia turned back, tilting her head slightly. βFor quite some time, if I may add.β
Β βYou didn't say anything about it!β
Β βWell, you didn't give me the chance to say anything before you went ahead and introduced him to me, did you?βΒ
Β Lia held back the laugh threatening to leave her lips as the teen's expression turned from slight offense and confusion to embarrassment.
Β βWellβ¦ uhβ¦β Josuke scratched the back of his head, a storm of questions already forming in his mind. βCould I at least askββ
Β βNo.β Jotaro interrupted.
Β His glare was enough to have both teens freeze in place. Lia rolled her eyes in amusement, giving the pair of teens one last look.
Β βSee you tomorrow!β
Β The pair started walking home as soon as they heard the kidsβ voices fading away in the opposite direction. For a couple of minutes, the way back was enveloped with the usual silence that lingered at the end of the day. Still, Jotaro couldnβt help but notice Liaβs frown as she remained deep in thought.
Β βI can hear your thoughts from here,β He sighed, letting his gaze drift to her for a moment before focusing back on the path in front of them.
Β βI just realized that, the more I think of it, the worse this whole situation soundsβ¦β She murmured, cringing. βI mean, Iβm in a relationship with one of my high school studentβs nephew-β
Β βDonβt.β
Β βWell, donβt say it like it's my fault! Iβm not the one who messed up your family tree!βΒ

Β . April 1999.
. Budogaoka High School.
. Tuesday, 8:00 am.
The city of Morioh slowly stirred up, its streets filling with businessmen and students going about their mornings. And just like on any other day of the school year, Lia found herself arriving at Budogaoka High School, with the difference being that it was one of the occasions where she didnβt have to walk there by herself, instead being accompanied by Noriaki.
Β βSo you and Jotaro are going to be looking for that arrow guy today?β
Β βYes, hopefully we can at least find some trace of whoever has it.βΒ
Β βI seeβ¦β
Β Ever since Angelo had confessed about how he gained his stand after his βdefeatβ, both Noriaki and Jotaro had spent almost every free moment they had looking for any sort of information, hoping it could allow them to track the arrow wielder before more users could be let loose and cause harm.
Β βJust promise me that you two wonβt do anything stupid if you encounter them, alright?β
Β βPromise,β Noriaki chuckled, looking at Lia by the corner of his eye. βAt least for me, I canβt promise anything for Jo-chan.β
Β Lia rolled her eyes at the teasing tone that the nickname carried. She bumped him with her shoulder, a smile creeping to her lips as the redhead chuckled and gently bumped her back.
Β βYou remember your promise as well, donβt you?β he mused after a moment of silence.
Β βI know, I knowβ¦β Lia waved her hand dismissively in the air, looking at Noriaki. βCall you if there are any signs of a stand user and avoid confrontation unless it is necessary, as well as to avoid doing anything risky or stupid.βΒ
Β βIβm going to guess that the last part was addedββ
Β βAdded by Jotaro, yes.β She crossed her arms, frowning.
Β The pair stopped as they neared the entrance of Budogaoka, standing just far away enough from the main route to the school. Lia took a moment to watch as the groups of students gathered at the door before walking inside, briefly greeting the few who noticed her before she turned fully to Noriaki.
Β βI hope you have luck with the search.β
Β βHopefullyβ¦β Noriaki sighed, reaching for her hand, giving it a soft squeeze. βBe safe out there, alright?β
Β βI will,β Lia looked at him, a smile appearing on her lips as Noriaki leaned down, pressing a quick kiss on her forehead.Β
Β The way he did it, still making sure it was unnoticeable by those around, made her chuckle. After all, it was adorable for Lia that the small urge to avoid PDA lingered in the redhead after so many years.
Β βNow, now. Hurry back before someone sees you.β She teased, playfully pushing Noriakiβs shoulder. βI gotta go.β
Β Noriaki chuckled, shaking his head lightly in amusement before taking his leave. Lia watched his form retreating until she lost sight of him in the sea of upcoming students. However, as she turned to enter the school, her gaze met with no other than Josukeβs, who seemed to have been staring at her for quite some time.
Β Yet, as her hand raises in a friendly greeting, sheβs met with a glare from the teen as he storms over.
Β β...Good morning?β
Β Yet, rather than the teenβs cheerful answer she was used to, Josuke stopped a step from her, obviously upset.
Β βSensei! I didnβt think you were that kind of person!β
Β βExcuse me-?β
Β βJotaro-san even came yesterday for you! And here you are, going behind his back with no other than his friend!β His voice rose more than the tone needed at such a distance, alerting passersby. βDoes Noriaki-san even know?!βΒ
Β Oh.
Β Oh no.
Β Lia cringed at Josukeβs words, suddenly realizing the reason why he was rambling angrily at her. Sadly, she had miscalculated how the situation would be seen from an outside perspective, which justified the suspicions the teen carried.
Noticing the cluster of students slowing their walks, she sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose.
Β βEnough.β The word, which had the same tone she used in class, was successful in making Josuke stop. βFollow me, Iβm not a fan of you airing my personal life in front of the school.β
Β Thankfully, he followed along, hesitating after Liaβs change of tone and expression, but still carrying the determination to defend his nephew.
Β Once at a more secluded part near the main entrance, she stopped, turning to face Josuke completely.
Β βI understand where youβre coming from, but the situation is more complex than you think.βΒ
Β Much to her surprise, Josuke kept quiet, his arms crossed as he skeptically looked at her.
Β βHow do I even put this without complicating things?β Lia muttered, rubbing at her temples. βIβm not βgoing behind Jotaroβs backβ, heβs actually aware of itβ¦β
Β She cringed at her half-assed explanation. And to make matters worse, the awkwardness of the situation got heavier as Josukeβs confusion became evident.Β
Β βWhat?β
Β Screw it, time to bite the bullet.
Β βThe three of us are together, alright? We all know about it and agreed a few years ago. No one is cheating on anybody- and you can ask either of them if you still donβt believe my words.β
Β Josuke didnβt comment any further, but it was clear from his expression that he was trying to grasp the situation as best as he could. And if one were to pay enough attention, one could almost hear the gears working inside his mind.
Β βTogether? Likeβ¦ together?β
Β Lia exhaled in frustration, doing her best to avoid any unnecessary comments.
Β βI shouldβve let him go to Jotaro; that way, he wouldβve dealt with this instead of me.β She thought, grumbling under her breath.
Β βYes, together like that.β She raised her hand as Josuke opened his mouth, successfully cutting off his question. βBecause some relationships are like that, ok? Now, could we please end this conversation here?β
Β βOf courseβ¦β Josuke shifted in place, obviously still wanting to ask questions. Still, despite all the curiosity, he also seemed apologetic about the misunderstanding. βIβm sorry for jumping to conclusions.β
Β The tone of his voice, mixed with the way his expression dropped like a scolded toddler, made Lia feel that perhaps she couldβve taken a nicer approach to her words.Β
Β βItβs alright, I know you did it in good faith.β She awkwardly patted him on the upper arm, trying to ease the tension. βNow, please go to class. I still need to arrive at the office, and I would rather not be late.
Β Her words brought Josuke to the cruel reality: one where he still had a whole day of school left. He quickly apologised, rushing back to the entrance of the school, where Koichi had been waiting for him.
Β Still, Lia couldnβt help but smile as she watched the kids leave. After all, the truth was going to come out at some point, whether they wanted it or not.
Β βAt least I can be certain that Josuke is not the kind to go around telling everyone stuff like thisβ¦ Heβs just a sweet kid that cares for his family and friends.β

Something that has always been a fun challenge is to create art that looks similar to the official pieces of the crusades (mainly Nori and Jotaro). And luckily, I got to finish this one in time for Lia's birthday (aka today).
So happy birthday to my lovely girl, may this year allow me to create more art to share here! (β *β Β΄β Οβ ο½β *β )
Heeey! So, as some people out there, I follow the headcanon of Noriaki's birthday being July 23rd, same day as the Fukuoka Tower gets lit in green lights for him.
So happy birthday my lovely boy!!
As always, a big shootout to my friend @magthemage for her help with this drawing, I'm so happy about how it came out UwU
You can call me Mape, Noise, or just anything you feel like, I don't mind! I'm an adult in her 20's, and JJBA has been a big interest of mine for a while now.
This is an Oc x Canon/OcxCC account dedicated to my Ocs' lore and their ships (I don't consider myself a selfshipper bc my characters aren't self inserts for my own comfort).
My F/Os (or more likely, the canon characters I made ships with Ocs) are mainly Kakyoin Noriaki and Kujo Jotaro, although you might see other characters around.
I'm not the best at constantly posting on here, but I try my best. Still, I love answering asks and tag games though it might take me a bit to answer.
I don't mind sharing/doubles in the slightest! In fact, I love seeing others' takes for the characters I like!
Please bear with me, it's the first time I do this. But I really want to connect with more people in the community (β ΰΉβ Β΄β β’β .Μ«β Β β β’β Β β `β ΰΉβ )
I've been wanting to post some more bits of writing, more when it comes to the behavior of the poly and some personal headcanons I have.
Big thanks to my friend @magthemage for the help with these! I don't oftenly see people do it, but talking with someone who doesn't have a character (in this case Jotaro) as F/o helps a lot to brainstorm while staying away from it becoming ooc XD
Anyway! Here they are! I don't think there's anything to tag as warning, just a bit of Jotaro's PTSD but nothing else, so dw!
Under the cut because they're kinda lengthy!
Tag list: @spookysinner45 @iceicewifey
Lemme know if you want to be added by answering this form! π
Let's put straight a fact that, sadly, a lot of people seem to forget: Intimacy is hard. Especially with characters that were written during the 80s boom of the hypermasculinity trope.
There are three distinct characteristics associated with the hypermasculine personality: the view of violence as manly, the perception of danger as exciting and sensational, and callous behavior toward women and a regard toward emotional displays as feminine.
Something quite fitting for Kujo Jotaro. And when it came to him joining Lia and Noriaki's relationship, this was a recurring issue.
Not having a healthy model that showed him the kind of affection it was normal to share with a partner since Sadao was rarely around, his personality and factors such as his PTSD after Egypt; things had a rough start.
Yet, something that we know defines Jotaro, is how he doesn't like the idea of giving up, even when it comes to something he isn't used to.
So in order to get to a healthy and understanding point in their relationship, Lia had to spend a lot of time, effort, and probably have an ulcer removed, to try to get Jotaro to a point where he's a bit more able to express his feelings without him feeling like he has failed himself.
It's not like Jotaro doesn't feel, but rather that he can't express things normally, or it would go against his core values.
βOne of the first things that Lia managed to establish was a different way to communicate. Because saying "I love you" just made Jotaro feel weak and vulnerable, Lia proposed an alternative: for him to squeeze her hand twice. Same meaning, but without forcing him into an uncomfortable position.
It was like Jotaro had seen the moon for the first time in years.
What started with him trying that just before sleep, and with Lia answering in kind, turned to him grabbing Lia's hand and squeezing over the smallest things. As a compliment to a thank you, as a random gesture, or just her being close.
It had been a long evening. With Noriaki being not only the last to arrive home, but also having returned absolutely exhausted; the usual chores shared by the trio were left in charge of Lia and Jotaro.
Unlike their usual routine, this time there was a heavyβalthough not uncomfortableβ silence between the pair.
Still, as efficient as always, anything left to clean and put away in the kitchen was soon finished.
Lazily, the couple walked towards their respective bedrooms (Kujo having one of his own to avoid stepping over his boundaries and keeping the steady process of him feeling more comfortable). However, as Lia finished bidding him goodnight with a yawn, she felt herself being stopped by a bigger hand grabbing onto hers.
βJojo?β She looked up at him, her head tilted in confusion as she noticed how he tried to avoid her gaze.
Yet, before she could call out to him again, she felt his hand gently squeezing hers twice.
Being the first time he had used this way of showing affection, she couldn't stop her mouth from opening slightly in surprise.
Barely catching sight of blush on his face due to the lack of light, her face softened.
She squeezed his hand in return with a soft smile directed to the man, finally letting go and allowing each other to retreat to their rooms for the night.
βWhile Jotaro was incapable of outwardly expressing his affection with words, Lia noticed that he normally roamed towards silent actions, kind of expecting her to understand them.
Examples of this were when she normally complained that her children were being absolute brats and making the class more difficult to handle, Jotaro would just reply "γγγ£γ" (got it) and stop communication, only for Lia to arrive home with Jotaro having actually gone out of his way to purchase food from a local mom-and-pop shop on the way home.
While he normally doesn't expect to be thanked for it, every time Lia does, he simply turns around, pulls his cap down and mutter an "...γγ", busying himself with anything else available nearby just so Lia doesn't catch him making a silly smile.
βWe know that due to his PTSD, Jotaro has a hard time sleeping almost every night. He normally tosses and turns, and sometimes hits things in his sleep, another reason he normally waits for Lia and Noriaki to be asleep for him to move to his room.
But sometimes Lia finds him sitting in the middle of the night on the balcony, cigarette in hand, trying to calm his nerves.
And being aware of his silent nature, and how easily it is for him to instantly return to his shell; she simply sits next to him, waiting for him to show any sign of him wanting a physical interaction like touching her hand or thanking her for being there.
That's when she knows she can try to physically reassure him, with little things like caressing his back, leaning against him or even let him rest his head on her thighs, something he absolutely adores doing, but is ashamed to do when Nori is awake and around... or when anyone else can see him.
And if her touch doesn't feel enough, she'll even goof around a bit, just like the few times they actually talked in the past while alone. Not as annoying as she used to be, but still enough as to get his mind distracted from whatever is troubling him those nights.
January was never an easy month.
Despite bad memories being left in the past, the seasonal drop in mood always brought back a bad taste in everyone's mouth.
A taste of bile and blood.
Being well accustomed to the weight at her sides during the night, it wasn't strange for Lia to be woken up as soon as her mind noticed the empty spot on the bed.
It was a routine event at this point. The memories of that night affected Jotaro more than often to anyone. Because, while Noriaki had also been in a pretty bad situation that almost cost his life, the difference was that the redhead actually knew how to reach out for help. And after many years of therapy, he was able to ground himself better.
For Jotaro, on the other hand, it was as if any progress he had made through the years suddenly disappeared. He hid himself away from others, resorting to smoking, although it was a habit he had been trying to quit.
And having gone through the same situation quite a couple of times before, Lia knew exactly where to find him.
Quickly going to grab some water from the kitchen, she went to the balcony, finding Kujo seated on the floor of the balcony, lazily dangling a cigarette between his fingers as his leg anxiously bounced up and down.
Frowning as her gaze landed on him, she knocked softly on the door frame, letting him know about her arrival without startling him.
With the dim light that the moon provided him, she barely caught a glimpse of him looking at her by the corner of his eye. This, accompanied by the motion of his leg stopping, was enough to let her know that he was aware of her presence at his side.
In slow movements, she sat down at his side, leaving enough space between their bodies to avoid touching him before he felt comfortable and calm enough. She placed the glass in the space between them, a small smile forming on her lips as she saw him take it, slowly taking a sip from it before placing it back down.
The pair spent a few minutes in silence, bashing in the soft sounds of the night. Yet, Lia couldnβt help but to scrunch her nose as the smoke from his cigarette reached her and tickled her throat, threatening to make her cough.
Noticing this, the raven frowned, letting out a tired sigh as he put out the lit cigarette.
βYou didnβt have to do that, yβknow?β Lia frowned at him, removing a hand that she unconsciously had moved to cover her nose and mouth.
βYou donβt like itβ
She let out a sigh, hugging her legs against her chest and resting her head on her knees before directing her gaze towards him.
βItβs true that I donβt like itβ¦ and that I wish you used a healthier alternative to calm down. But I canβt force you to stop doing it.β
Jotaro raised a brow at her, incredulous of what she had said after she spent so many times reprimanding him for the smell of tobacco and the smoke.
βYou still bitch about itβ He said, his tone having a hint of playfulness rather than annoyance.
βIt's not bitching, it's giving you advice!β she frowned as she heard him scoff lightly. βI mean it!β
She turned in place, her body fully facing him as she sat cross legged at his side.
βIt's as if one day I arrived and told you and Nori that I'm gonna drop everything to become, I don't knowβ¦ an idol. You cannot forbid me from doing it, but you can give me advice about how bad of an idea that is.β
He looked at Lia for a few seconds, his brow still raised as he processed her words, before letting out a sigh as he crossed his arms, looking back to the city.
βYeah, because you suck at singingβ
Lia could only frown at his words, a small pout forming on her lips as she glared at him.
βI'm going to take that as you understanding my point rather than trying to mock meβ
She turned back to her original sitting position, lightly and playfully bumping into him as she leaned against his arm.
Still, a small smile formed on her lips as she heard the faintest chuckle coming from him, noticing how he seemed more relaxed than when she arrived.
She looked up at him for a moment, making Jotaro look down at her as he felt Lia's gaze on him, a questioning look on his face.
βWeβre not going anywhere, and you're not going to end up alone. Please keep that in mind.β
Just as Lia finished speaking, she noticed a glimpse of something in his eyes. A mix of surprise and something elseβ¦
Yet, before she could even mention it, her sight went black, and soon enough she noticed his cap somehow on her head, blocking her view.
βWhen did you even-?β
βShut upβ
Ah, that tone. For someone random, it would sound like the same monotonous tone he always had, but she could easily distinguish the light embarrassment it hid under.
She couldn't help but to chuckle, shaking her head in amusement as she leaned further into him, deciding to give him some peace of mind and keep quiet, at least for that night.
She would make sure of teasing him enough once the next day arrived, though.
My semester is finally over so hopefully I'll be able to post a few things I've been working on.
I noticed a few of my mutuals using Google forms to keep a list of mutuals that want to be tagged on posts, as well as which kind of posts, so I decided to give it a try since I kind of forgot who told me once that they wanted to be tagged (β Β΄β Β β .β Β β .Μ«β Β β .β Β β `β )
Just a small list for me to keep on check the people who want to be tagged in my posts! I've seen a few mutuals do this so I figured it woul
Feel free to answer the form if you're interested, and thank you if you are, I really appreciate the support and interest!
First drawing of the trio together!! And I gotta say I'm really proud and happy of it turned out. Big kudos to my friend @magthemage for her guidance with this project, and for helping me not give up in the middle of it like it usually happens lol.
I was supposed to finish and post this in time for the hana matsuri, but I mistook the dates, thanks Google :c
A lot has happened as of late in my life, but I won't bore you with that. Just know that I'm back, and I hope I can bring more things here!

An alternative path. When everything is lost, there's only one highway to hell.
One of the best and most elaborated drawings I've ever done! I couldn't leave my girl without something for her birthday, so happy birthday Lia my beloved! π
Also, kudos to the wonderful @magthemage for her help during the process of drawing this, I doubt it would've turned out so good without her guidance!
