Part 2 of Joseph’s twin with stardust crusaders. I think it would be hilarious to see polnareff react to reader because it was his family that saved her after the battle with kars. I have no doubt polnareff would have heard stories about her from his parents or grandparents
— So, Joseph’s dear grandson found himself in jail because of an “evil spirit”? Well, here you and your brother come to save the day! Along with Joseph’s new friend.
— It’s been a long 49 years since the pillarmen’s defeat. A long 49 years since Caesar was taken from you too early… Your skill with hamon had kept you young, you wished you could say the same for Joseph though. He had gotten married to your friend, Suzie Q, and had Holly who then had Jotaro. However, we all know this. What about you? You had yet to be married, scared to get into a relationship with any after Caesar. However, you found solace in an old friend who might have had a bit of romantic interest in you. Smokey Brown, he helped calm your heart and the raging turmoil inside your mind. You hadn't want to bother Joseph with your feelings. He had a whole family to take care of and Caesar was his best friend.
— I like to think that you and Joseph had sort of similar career paths, so I kinda imagine you got into Architecture and he sold the houses and stuff you made :)
— Back to the present! Helping Jotaro out of prison! It was as you, Joseph, and Avdol thought. He had a stand. A day or two later, your niece had fallen ill. Joseph had realized this had to be the work of DIO and your heart almost stopped. Another evil you would have to go defeat? Could you ever have a break of losing loved ones? Apparently not.
— However, before you all set off and before Holly became sick, you all had gained a new companion in Kakyoin. He was the same age as Jotaro, and you were happy he got a friend. Kakyoin was very polite, he even said you didn’t look a day over 60! Well… that’s because it was true because of hamon. You thanked him for the compliment and just told him it was a long story.
— Off you all go to Egypt for a bizarre adventure! The first thing you all did was on a plane. Great idea guys!
“Joseph, this seems like a really bad idea…” you said.
“Don’t worry, it’ll be fine!” Joseph tried to assure you.
The other three looked at you quizzically, you sighed and explained.
“Joseph has been in at least 2 plane crashes in his life. Now you know why I never go on a plane with him.”
— As expected by you, this plane crashed due to Tower of Gray. You totally told Joseph that you told him so.
— One day, you were all eating at a restaurant for a break. You and Joseph were arguing on if he could read the menu or not. You said that he totally could not. Jotaro snapped at you both to stop your bickering as if he was Erina. Though the two never met, you could see the stern similarities. The reason wasn’t just because he was tired of two oldies squabbling, it was because a tourist had came to ask for help. Joseph said he could totally help the Frenchman! You retorted under your breath that you doubted it.
“C’mon, don’t you trust your older brother?” Joseph asked.
“Mr. Joestar, you’re only older than (Name) by 2 minutes,” Avdol sighed, also getting a bit tired of your childish squabbling.
The Frenchman instantly straightened his posture and pointed to you, “Does that mean you’re (Name) Joestar?!”
You looked at him, confused but nodded.
“My grandparents would tell me stories of someone with that name. My name is Jean-Pierre Polnareff.”
Your eyes went wide and you remembered in an instant. 49 years ago, after the battle with Kars, you landed off the coast of France. A kind couple with the family name of Polnareff had helped you get back on your feet! The woman has just had her son, that was probably his father.
“It’s so wonderful to meet you, Polnareff!”
He laughed, “Yes yes, it is wonderful to have met you as well. However, going against Lord DIO is something I cannot forgive, even if you are a childhood hero.”
You all jumped out of your seats, getting ready for a fight.
— Polnareff did not accept anything less than you fighting him. Avdol offered to take your place but you agreed to fight Polnareff.
You took your place outside as the hot sun beat down on your backs. The other Crusaders were behind you, ready to intervene.
You wiped the sweat from your brow, this was the perfect environment for your stand, Holding Out for a Hero. Your stand could solidify and use light to fight enemies. You took a deep breath, changing your footwork to a fighting stance and looked at Polnareff with determination.
“Sorry, kid. I hate to do this to someone from the family that saved my life,” you said and then the battle began.
— Polnareff fought valiantly and was cocky. He was actually winning for a good portion of the battle. You channeled your inner energy, it appeared in you how it does your brother. You had a random, totally crazy idea that was on Joseph’s level of ridiculous. You decided to take a gamble, a chance on this move. If it didn’t work, at least you’d get to see Caesar again.
You allowed Silver Chariot to hit your stand in the arm, setting off the equivalent of a flash bang. Amongst the confusion, you solidified light into a spike. Once the bright light dissipated, you were behind Polnareff and holding the spike to his neck.
“I really don’t feel like ending you myself, so please do the favor yourself. Keep that light, kiddo.”
You did a hair flip and walked back to the Crusaders, leaving Polnareff stunned as he held the light spike. When you walked back, you totally expected Polnareff to throw a the light spike like a javelin and hit you in the back with it.
You turned from your spot to see him about to take his own life with your light spike. Anxiety and guilt gnawed at your stomach and heart. Just as he was about to do it, you made the spike dissipate back into light and he was no longer holding it. You walked back over to him, offering your hand to help him up.
“You’re a righteous man. You don’t deserve to die like this. Join us, let us help you,” you said as you offered your hand.
— Once Jotaro removed the flesh bud like with Kakyoin, Polnareff joined you all on your journey.
— You all also gained a bit of a stowaway on your journey in a young girl named Anne. You were very protective over the young girl. After all, you two were the only women on the team! Polnareff seemed a little grumpy that it was so easy for Anne to get close to you. You assured him that you had no favorites, well, besides Joseph. That was a given though.
— Your journey was full of silly misadventures. Well, except the time Avdol died. That wasn’t very fun and silly. He wasn’t really dead, but Polnareff wasn’t allowed to know. It hurt to keep a secret from someone who admired you so much. You apologized once Avdol was back though and Polnareff couldn’t stay mad at you for long.
— Anyways! The funny and silly times!
After the Yellow Temperance Fight:
While on the train out of Singapore, the crusaders gathered around you for stories of younger Joseph. You even showed off the photograph you took of him wearing that pink dress.
Everyone except Joseph had a good laugh, and all Joseph said was, “I killed that dress!”
After, everyone gathered for the story of how you and Joseph defeated the Pillarmen. That train ride was fun. It reminded you of fun times. It was like you and your brother were young again, enjoying time with Caesar and Suzie Q. You could’ve sworn you saw Caesar smiling at you all in the corner of your eye. Though you didn’t know some of this group all too well, it that’s when you knew…
You would die for this group. You would die if it meant they all got to live longer.
A blond man in the clouds frowned for a moment before whispering, “Please don’t throw away your life like that. I would die again if it meant protecting you again…”
While Polnareff and Kakyoin were with your brother, Steely Dan made you and Jotaro come with him. You almost got so mad on Jotaro’s behalf. How dare Steely Dan be so cowardly and link his pain to your brother?!
While walking in the town, Steely Dan suddenly wrapped his arm around your waist.
You glanced at Steely Dan, masking your disgusted face with disinterest as you said, “You like cougars or something? I’m 68.”
You could’ve sworn you heard Jotaro laugh, though he quickly masked it as a cough.
You and Jotaro were one of the only people who supported Kakyoin with his “theory” of the baby being a stand user. It wasn’t very fun but you did get to tease Polnareff for finding Joseph’s baby food amazing.
— The moment you got to Egypt, back-up arrived! However, this back-up attacked Polnareff. You had to pull the back-up, Iggy, off of Polnareff. Said man was then flabbergasted when Iggy didn’t maul your face off. You treated this dog as if it were a person, which in turn made Iggy sort of respect you. You didn’t look down on him, therefore he didn’t look down on you. You’re the one who mostly carried the coffee gum too.
— Kakyoin was sadly injured, but the journey had to continue! Polnareff and Iggy were always at odds with one another. Not just for the usual reasons. It was also because of you. Polnareff was just a little jealous that Iggy liked you so much. Silly jealous boy.
— After the Boingo and Hol Horse episode, you actually got Iggy to not attack the poor kid. You almost got a new grandson that day... at least you'd like to think so. Boingo was thankful for being saved from Iggy's wrath, but not being taken into the family.
I might make a Part 3 of the fight with DIO ;)
Also, sorry this took so long! My summer has been super busy. There will be more Polnareff fun too
