⋆.˚♡⸝⸝ how they comfort you when grieving
─── joseph j. + jotaro k. + noriyaki k. + jean p.
c.w. mentions of death, gender neutral reader, fluffy stuff, both young and old joseph
note. this’ll be my last jjba request and post for a while cause i’m not as passionate abt it as i was a few years ago. i’m not sure when i’ll get this out but i hope you enjoy and sorry for the bad news 😞 but i really hope you enjoy and sorry for taking so long.
jotaro is usually a lot nicer to you than he is with others but not to the point where it seems like you’re getting special treatment or that he’s grown fond of you, but rather as a fellow companion if that makes sense. though when he catches wind of your recent loss of a loved one, his actions while subtle go a long way.
he’s not one for physical affection so a hug or anything more would mostly not happen, but he shows his care in the form of acts of service. helping you when ever he can in any given situation—a fight, food, silently offering to take over for you in whatever you’d been doing. small things—things that most of the team wouldn’t pick up on unless they watched his every move.
and he never babies you, not his style. especially when he views you as more than capable. he’d see babying you as a form of belittlement.
joseph is a bit more hands on than jotaro and tends to be a bit more teasing than the others but that doesn’t mean he can’t be serious when the situation calls for it. his usual teasing nature is out on the back burner when he hears of the news or sees the noticeable shift in you demeanor and body language. gently he offers a shoulder for you to lay on if ever you needed it.
not trying to overstep especially at such a time. he’d also spoil you some—a lot more noticeable to the others than with the former. making sure you’re well fed, you don’t have too much on your shoulders, and he refuses to let you fight claiming you’ve got a lot on your mind so let him handle it. you also don’t really have a choice even if you insist.
if you with old joseph, he treats you more like a daughter to him. but if you’re with young joseph—i mean you’d be treated as a friend regardless but it’s more prominent here due to the two of you most likely being around the same age. either way he’s still understanding especially having dealt with loss himself.
kakyoin feels more a bit more timid in his approach to comfort, but not too much. of course he’s not going to smother you with affections but he’s also not going to leave you feeling cold and alone. he’ll hug you when he feels the situation calls for it but most times he’ll just stay by your side in hopes that his presence comforts you in someway. and if he notices it does even just a bit, he’s more than happy.
he might also do tasks for you if he feels you need rest or a break of some kind but not to an excessive amount. he focuses a lot more on being there for you because he feels like that’s what you need most in this situation. never straying too far or always making sure you’re within at most a foot of a distance from him.
polnareff is a nice balance. yes, while sometimes i think he can be overbearing he means well. making sure you’re never left to your lonesome but giving you privacy when the moment calls for it. while also hugging you when he feels you need it most and maybe even occasionally giving you a quick forehead kiss.
he tries to take your mind off it in order to cheer you up and make you feel a bit better, but never to the point where you’d forget. and due to his perceptive nature he knows when too much is literally too much and lessens his actions for your comfort.

a/n: i am utterly in love with kakyoin! in my mind were happily married and im sleeping on him just like reader is in this <3 also not proofread sorry ily guys
kakyoin, seated criss-cross on the dusty sand of the desert, stared at the flame in front of him. it grew with each passing moment, at times standing taller than his form, before momentarily falling back down. the heat it gave off was wonderful. the desert got quite cold during the night, kakyoin thought. he then placed his palms faced towards the warmth of the flame, and basked in the prickling sensation.
the others have gone to bed, it was his turn to keep watch of the vast space. mr. joestar and polnareff were snoring soundly on one side, avdol flat on his back on the other, and jotaro was dead asleep with his hat nuzzled atop his face.
kakyoin's eyes scan over to you, it's then he realizes that you're actually awake; or, have just awaken, it seems. you're rubbing your eyes, and kakyoin can hear a small yawn find its way out your mouth.
you whip your head over to the only other source of light, besides the big, bright moon.
kakyoin waves you over with a small smile. you wave back with a tired smile of your own, before sauntering over to the space next to him. kakyoin unconsiously shuffles his position and pats down his hair, but makes no effort to move away when you finally sit.
you stretch your arms above your head and groan in fatigue. kakyoin lightly laughs at this, "what's gotten you up?"
you glance at him, before your eyes shoot back to the flames. the red-orange hue shadows your face with a warmth you couldn't feel all the way by your make-shift bed.
"just can't sleep, i guess." you whisper. suddenly, goosebumps spine across your skin and you begin rubbing your arms with the heat of your palms. "i think the dangers of this journey are really getting to my head." you chuckle, but kakyoin just frowns.
the six of you had swore a faithful promise the day you embarked on the mission to save jotaro's mother, holly. many of you were still young,—students even. kakyoin knew the dangers very well, but his resolve to help his newfound friends overpowered any doubt his mind held.
a mild wind blows a breeze towards you two, and he squints his eyes to block any flyaway sand from his view. when he opens them, you're staring straight at him and his heart thumps an extra beat.
suddenly, he remembers the conversation. "what you're feeling right now is very valid, and i completely understand your feelings. it's not easy—what we're doing."
he places a hand atops yours, which is rested on your knee. "i want you to know that i think you're incredibly strong for holding up with everything. it's very admirable, you know." then he smiles, another soft grin that seems as an invite for you to stare at his lips.
with a slight nod, you carefully intertwine your fingers with his. kakyoin's lilac eyes, turned red-violet due to the flame, widen. his whole body halts, as he watches the way each of your fingers slip perfectly between his. your soft palm feels perfect against his slightly roughed one. once you've finished, you shyly smile up at him. he mirrors you.
in no universe, would he dare release your hold. instead, in this very moment, kakyoin squeezes your palm. time passes, and you two spend it all whispering hushed words.
you and kakyoin could always talk about anything. there was never a moment where either of you felt awkward, or uncomfortable with one another. he was happy, as were you. through all this, never once did either of you let go of the other's hand. the flame however, was beginning to die. its sparks disintegrating into the cool air.
after what feels like hours, kakyoin notices your eyes droop in the slightest, and your body begins to go slump every now and then. he chuckles, and pulls a strand hair away from your face. he whispers, "try to catch some shut-eye hm? the sun is about to rise and i can tell your body needs it." he laughs.
you snuggle closer to his large stature, which freezes before relaxing again. he swears, he'll never get use to being this close to you. you hum against his arm, "only if you get some with me, you've been up longer than i have."
kakyoin blinks—he has been up longest. he gazes ahead the sky, the sun was just barely peeking through the horizon. he should be safe to sleep for an hour or so, right?
a tug on his arm makes him look down. it's you, who tiredly looks up at him. you tug again: another silent invitation for him to sleep.
kakyoin smiles down at you once more, before he wraps his arm around your figure and carefully pulls you closer to him. you sigh happily, and lean onto him a little more. the warmth that radiated off his body was more than enough to replace the absence of a blanket.
"sleep well, i'll be here when you wake up." he murmurs, but all he gets in return are quiet snores and a soft hold on his arm.
a/n: nana's been watching a lot of jojo and nana loves jotaro very very much. this takes place in stardust crusaders, but there're no spoilers. not proofread LOL im writing this before bed so imma go to sleep now sweet dreams my loves <3
cw: underage smoking from jotaro + reader smokes too!
cascading gently are the waves of the pitch black ocean, and a salty breeze brushes past you. the sun has fallen, and above you stood an army of shapeless clouds, each with a unique figure of its own. with no concrete indication of time, you could only depend on intuition; right now, it seemed to be nearing one am. another breeze flows by, and you shiver.
"what are you doing still up?" a deep voice calls from the shadows of the bunks below, and you make out jotaro's figure emerge from the darkness. his hat is still on, never failing to hide most of his features. however under the piercing moon and its pale light, jotaro's azure eyes seem brighter than ever, and you find yourself turning away towards the ocean to miss his gaze.
you shrug, "couldn't sleep." jotaro walks forward next to you, leans his back against the railing, and tips his hat a little lower. you mirror him, but opt to lean forward over the railings. nearly retracting your arms from the sheer coldness, you lodge yourself and stay put, "i could say the same to you, the others all passed out?" he nods, and pulls out a cigarette.
flicking his lighter's flame ablaze, jotaro ignites the cigarette and takes a long, well-needed drag. the smoke enters his body like second nature and leaves his body like first.
you stare at the smoke as it fades into the air, meeting up with the clouds hovering over you two. jotaro takes another drag, he can feel your gaze but keeps his eyes forward. when's the last time you had a smoke? you wondered.
without thinking you extend a palm to jotaro, a silent gesture that didn't take jotaro long to comprehend. his eyes widen only the slightest bit, before he exhales and fetches another stick for you. you thank him with a nod, and place it between your lips. glancing up, you see jotaro with his lighter ignited once more, waiting for you to move in closer.
you do as he waits, inching forward and closer to jotaro's body. a warmth engulfs you and you have a feeling its not just from the tiny flame. a burst in your chest aches and you focus on getting the flame to catch the tip of your cigarette.
but, as you give your cigarette a second or two to light, your eyes wander and submerge themselves into the blue abyss of jotaro's. they're always so captivating, a serene blue that eases your senses without fail. they feel fresh, he feels fresh, like a wake-up call you never want to end. its then you decide that you could look into jotaro's eyes forever.
the flame suddenly goes out, and you realize your cigarette's been lit. you don't move back to your previous position, instead you stay close to jotaro, and even move in a little more. the gap between you two edges together, until you feel his arm against yours.
the silence deepens, a comfortable kind ensuing between the two of you. you inhale and exhale the smoke that fills your lungs. jotaro continues the same. it's just you and him, enjoying a smoke in the middle of the night; no one to bother and no one to be bothered. time goes by, and jotaro's cig becomes a stub. he puts it out with a grind of his heel, then instead of returning to the bunks like you assumed he would—jotaro gets comfortable against the railing once more, and waits.
jotaro would wait for as long as he could, if it meant more time would be spent with you.
Headcanons of Kakyoin telling his s/o that he was really lonely before meeting the crusaders and he is scared of experiencing loneliness again. And then his s/o hugs him and says "you're not alone anymore", "you're important to me", "I'll be by your side".
What would be his reaction?
(I wanna see my cherry boy with happy tears)
KAKYOIN REACTING TO S/O PROMISING TO STAY WITH HIM
￫ He’d tear up a bit but he wouldn’t try to hide it. Just to know that you won’t leave his side means so much to him and is enough to bring him comfort if he does cry.
￫ If he happens to speak after you’ve said that, his voice is cracking and he’s smiling a lot. He’s most likely telling you how grateful he is to have you and that at times he thinks you’re out of his league.
￫ Please hug him, or kiss him, or something cause he’s being overwhelmed with all these emotions that he doesn’t know what to do with any of them.
