[It's a very, very good thing that Giorno doesn't know about his younger years. If this was a face-to-face conversation, he'd be the one opening his mouth to object, only to realize that shit, in a way, he does that too.
Here, he'll tackle that in a different way.
God, he's so young.]
If you are able, try to put off worrying long enough to get some rest. I've kept you up long enough, and after today, we both deserve that if nothing else. Can you promise me that?
[People don't ask him to make promises. Not promises like this one, to take care of himself. It seems like something family would say, but Jonathan is too good to be his family, so - a friend, maybe.]
[Maybe he can turn off his mind long enough to sleep, and that can be good enough.]
[And it is good, even if he can't possibly know what kind of emotional storm has been brewing inside of the don. For now, it just means that a young man will be able to close his eyes tonight, and that's all he can ask.
