"None of you came home last night!!" A thick, French accent is the first to speak.

"We were all very worried and came looking for you, and we find you beating a man within an inch of his life." A more mature, deep voice is next.

"Then YOU tell US that you performed an investigation without our knowing and fought a succubus all by yourselves!?" A thick Italian accent follows.

"You could of been killed!! You were lucky that you had a spell to protect all of you!" An eloquent sounding voice speaks.

"All of you stay sitting right there. What do you have to say for yourselves?" A deep, gruff voice is the last to come.

"Ehh...well....bweeh~?" Kazuno tries to settle the situation, which earns a response from the Italian. "Being cute won't get you out of this one."

"Well?" The eloquent voice speaks once more.

"Well, first off, why are you and Jotaro-chan in school uniforms? Aren't you both college students now? Are you going as highschool students for Halloween?" "Shanna, hush...."

"Pardon me, Shanna-chan, but you know well why I still wear this uniform sometimes, it helps give me a sense of belonging in case you've forgotten, and JoJo just thinks he looks cool in that." "Wh-!? ....So what if I do?"

The group before the girls are their husbands and fiances. Oh dear. They're all in trouble.

"Jotaro," Shanna drops the honorific she'd sometimes refer to him by, "You KNOW that all of us together were MORE than enough to handle this on our own. You know I'M more than enough! Is it because we're girls!?"

"Wh- no, what the fuck? Of course not, that's not what I said!"

"Then WHAT is it then!? Don't you trust me!?"

"IT'S NOT ABOUT TRUST!!" He fires back. "I almost lost you back in Egypt!! I almost lost you BEFORE Egypt!! You want me to be fucking honest? Everyone almost died against that bastard Dio, some of us before him, our lives were threatened on that trip every single day, yours and mine were threatened three months before the trip! I'm... only gonna say this once dammit... I'm scared of losing you, ok? ...When I'm not there when you're doing something dangerous, my world gets turned upside down."

"....The same goes with me for you, Rose. I can't bare the thought of losing my future with you. We almost did, back in Cairo... I should of died that night. But I didn't. You should of been honest about why you were going to that party. I was terrified something had happened to you and your sister when neither of you ever came home..."

"Nori..." Rose's eyebrows upturn. "I'm sorry... you're right, I should of been honest in the first place. I just wanted to handle this alone with the other girls."

"You both are so busy now and do your own dangerous work, we just didn't want to get you both involved in anything more dangerous. But... I guess the least we could of done was tell you both when to expect us back, and what exactly we were doing, in case something bad DID happen and we needed back up." Shanna sighs. "I'm...sorry too."

Jotaro and Kakyoin share a glance between eachother before they motion for their fiancees to get up. "As long as you understand, just please, don't do that again... neither of us want to lose you two." "Mm." Jotaro nods in agreement, averting his eyes off to the side. "Let's just go home for now. You can update us about the full story on the way."

"What about you, cara? Do you have any idea how worried I was!? When I didn't hear from you, I tried to contact your sister, and she didn't answer! I tried to contact the other three girls and THEY didn't answer, and when the other men here called me asking where their girls were... could you imagine the panic I felt!? What were you thinking!"

Kazuno's eyebrows upturn as she responds to her husband. "Caesar, I... ...... I'm so sorry, love, really.. I just couldn't let you know we were heading into danger, you've already been through so much in your life at this point, and I knew if you knew, you'd try coming, too. I thought I could just let you enjoy some time with the kids at home... I never thought it would end up lasting through till the morning."

Caesar exhales out his nose and closes his eyes in thought for a moment before reopening them. He knew this reply was genuine and... honestly, as upset as he was that she didn't tell him the truth, he's just glad that she's ok. "Kazuno, I... realize I'm up there in age. My hamon won't keep me young forever. But... the same goes for you. One day you'll get yourself killed with this rashness. I..." The blonde sighs. "Just... please... I really appreciate you thinking of me, but be honest with me, ok? I'll always come running to protect you, if you end up in danger. We spent this many years together... and I still want to spend many more together. I never want to lose that with you. Let's go home, tesoro, our kids have been worried sick about you as well."

"Mon amour." Polnareff begins, looking clearly upset, but doing his best to hold back a bit. He truthfully already has an idea why Kikumi did what she did. He's done the same. Gone out to try and settle things without the others knowing. But he also knows... what that almost cost him before. "You...why weren't you just honest with me about what you were doing? You investigated something dangerous AND got into a fight with a succubus! I was worried sick about you!! If I'd known, I could of at least come to help you look or....or protect you!! I.... I'm your knight!! ....Right? You...I....we...GRRH!" His voice raises in frustration as he has trouble conveying his feelings. "I...! I could of lost you!! You never came home, and when I contacted the other guys and found out that their women never came home either, I....! I thought the worst happened!!!"

"Mn..." The elf whimpered, her ears downturning with guilt. "Y-Yes, but... if you were with us when we hadn't yet figured out that we were dealing with a succubus, she'd potentially have gone and picked you off, too, like the other missing people..." Kikumi looked up at him, seeing his frustration wasn't phased by the response. "Mn... I'm fine, m-mon ami." She refused to looked him in the eye, her cheeks ever so slightly pink.

While Polnareff was still frustrated with his wife, he knew she was being honest with what she was saying right now. Plus, it was hard to stay upset with her, especially with that look on her face. Reaching a hand out, he helps her up. "Just... please be honest with me next time you go out. I'm always only a phone call away from rescuing you. I couldn't protect my sister but... I can still protect you. Tell me about everything on the way back home..."

Last was Avdol, staring down at his own darling. He sighs before speaking. "I'm not particularly fond of having to scold you, my dear. But what you did was dangerous. It's not that I doubt your own strength and courage, or the other girls for that matter. But something could always happen. It could be something that you only have a split second to react to." He raises his arms up, revealing the prosthetics. "It happened to me. I should of died.... but instead I got lucky and only lost my arms. What if something like that were to happen, Kazeko? I had no idea what was going on with all of you. I couldn't protect you... if I was there, I could of incinerated that creature. Why were you insistent on going without telling me anything?"

"That's... that's exactly why... I couldn't live with myself if I let you put yourself on the line one more time... Egypt was almost the last... and... I'm not going to let that happen again-! ... I'm sorry, but... I want to protect you, too..." Kazeko stared up at her beloved, eyes shining, tears threatening to spill.

Avdol's facial features warm, and he offers her a hand to help her up. "That's... what all of you girls wanted to do, isn't it? You wanted to protect all of us from being in harm's way again... thank you. This trait is one of the many reasons why I fell in love with you. But... a relationship is of equal standing. You can protect me... but let me protect you, too. Tell me the full truth next time, ok? I don't... ever want to lose you, either."

The couples all leave, having reconciled with one another, and boy, do the men have alot to be caught up on.

Avdol: *he laughs warmly, her breath brushing over his neck* ... now what’s this about all of a sudden?

Kazeko: W-well... this is your last Christmas present... ... I know I’m not usually this forward, but-

She’s quickly cut off by a soft, pillowy kiss on the lips.

Avdol: ... I love it, ya qamar. ... it’s a little selfish, but can I make a request of my present?

Kazeko: *blushing like a furnace, she nods, her confidence faltering*

Avdol: *he pulls her closer and whispers something in her ear. whatever it was, it made her blush even worse*

Thank you so, so so SO much for this Christmas surprise @strawberry-metal!!! I told you I’d get self indulgent :///p
