yes it is

You realize all of that's ridiculous, don't you? There's no currency here yet, and Mrs Erina Jonathan's your great-great-grandmother probably DOES know how to make chocolate from scratch, and anyway what's the point if it's not even making it from scratch. Besides, I know plenty of girls who would much rather buy things than make them. Trish would stab you in the eye if you tried to get her to do any kind of homemaking thing.

[starmark]

The more I hear about Trish the more I feel like she's my kind of person.

I think the point is just to be able to say "I worked really hard on this". Like that's a measure of their love or something.

[digiorno]

And then on the other side you just buy things? That's not fair either. Why not just give the other person what you think they want?

Also yes, Trish is perfect. She could destroy you. And everyone. Ever.

[starmark]

You buy things threefold. So if someone gave me 1000 yen chocolate, I'd be obligated to get them something worth 3000 yen a month later.

I mean I know there are no price tags on homemade chocolate but you approximate, I guess. I don't know because I've never returned anybody's choco wishes before. I usually give away the stuff I get.

What's her Stand?

[digiorno]

There are so many rules for this and I think you should just not follow any of them.

Spice Girl. She downed a plane with it once. But she doesn't even need it to destroy people, she can just do it by talking.

[starmark]

You don't really think about all the rules when it's what you grew up being used to. Like how you don't think having a nativity scene the size of a small city in your front yard is weird at Christmas.

...She's never allowed to meet my grandfather. Ever.

[digiorno]

No, I still think the giant nativity scene is weird. I think most rules are very weird. Except for the rules about respecting people, those are important, but you don't have to buy people three times as much respect as they make for you or . . . whatever.

You just try to tell her she can't do anything, Jotaro.

[starmark]

Yeah that analogy kind of went weird places didn't it.

WE DON'T NEED MORE PEOPLE WHO CRASH PLANES AROUND HERE

[digiorno]

A little bit. I stand by it anyway.

But there aren't even any planes.

[starmark]

...

You know it makes it really hard to complain when you answer all of my complaints with reasonable logic.

[digiorno]

I'm sorry, am I ruining your fun?

[starmark]

Asshole.

I'm pretty sure there's a guy here with a crush on my grandpa.

[digiorno]

. . . I don't have a reasonable solution to that.

[starmark]

I know. It's okay, you don't have to have one. I'm just kind of thinking about it, and typing it out makes it more real somehow.

[digiorno]

Your family is insane. And this is ME saying that.

[starmark]

Mio fratello la mafia don è il più normale di tutti noi.

[digiorno]

Sono un modello di comportamento in questi tempi difficili.

[starmark]

Sarei perso senza di te.

[digiorno]

È così vero.

Are you worried? I think I'm going to start enforcing a policy wherein you can only worry about maximum three things at once.

[starmark]

It's kind of complicated.

The baseline answer is no, I'm not worried. The longer answer is that...the reason I'm not worried is because I know enough about the situation to know that there is no right answer? And I'm not going to take sides on who I think should get shafted and who shouldn't, so I mostly try not to think about it too much, which is why there's no worrying going on.

[digiorno]

I think that's a good answer. A little sad, but the right choice for you.

[starmark]

I'm getting better about that lately, huh?

[digiorno]

Yes. You're getting better about lots of things.

[starmark]

And how've you been doing lately? Still okay?

[digiorno]

I feel better with people to take care of.
