jonathan dio sort of my stepfather sort of but i told him if he ever came near me i'd break his legs carlos acts sort of fatherish but i'm not sure because i don't really know how these things work and bruno maybe
[Three of these five are acceptable, he supposes. Jonathan definitely is, he doesn't know a thing about Carlos, and while he's somewhat annoyed at Bruno, Polnareff at least realizes it's somewhat undeserved.]
well six isn't so bad i think fathers work the way you want them to i mean theres no guide to it like oh yes he fulfills these three points therefore he's fatherlike
thats not how it works first off if someone else needs a dad they can have it love doesn't get weaker just because it spreads around second off you're allowed to have as many as you want and need
i know! but it's just i don't know it's complicated
there's famiglia and that's bruno and izabel and dio and all the people who were with me and left and then there's family and that's you and jotaro and kakyoin and mrs kujo and jonathan when he was here but i don't know if i should be part of both or in the middle? and i don't know how to be anyone's son i just don't know how to be that
[All right. Best to take each of these point by point.]
1. its complicated but thats life i think. families and friends and all of it is complicated. 2. you can be whatever you want. and i dont mean that as a blowoff, i mean: you can be as much a part of it as you want. i know some people who'd hate to be part of something they felt they weren't, like who'd hate me saying OH CALL ME PAPA because they'd think i was being stupid. which i wasn't but.
my point is you can think "i'm part of both, in both", or you can think "im in the middle", and I think everybody would be okay with it. mrs kujo is pretty great about being nice to everyone, and kakyoin--
I mean, he doesn't like his real parents at all. but that doesn't mean he doesn't have family-- he just found it in other people. in me and you and jotaro.
3. you just have to be its like i said before all you have to do is be you theres no script or guide or whatever to being somebodys son or brother or whatever you just you're there for the person, and do right by them, and thats that
[He frowns at all this before sending it out, unsure if he made his point successfully or not. After a moment:] youre somebody's son when they look out for you and you can come to them for comfort if you need it
[That actually helps. A lot, he thinks, and decides not to respond point by point because Polnareff asked him another question and he never answered it.]
it was my name before when i was born that was the name on my birth certificate first name haruno last name shiobana they changed it when we moved but i didn't understand why for a long time i liked my old name it means different things but all of them are about blooming and spring and new beginnings
um yes i think so not because i like it better i just don't want to explain to everyone kakyoin knows because i told him and jotaro found out and bruno knows but i don't know not everybody should know
[He does like it, though. He likes it the same way he likes Noriaki-- not to be used every day, no, but something to treasure, something to bring out on occasion.]
i have no idea what my name means how on earth do you know yours
i like to know what things mean giorno means morning good morning, buon giorno i used to look up flower names and meanings back when i first found out about gold experience i'd go to the library and spend hours there in the evening until they closed
no i just think it's funny and then carlos always says buon giorno giorno and that's funny too and once jotaro thought i said "tomorrow will be a better giorno" when i meant "day" he's cute
you could say that whenever you try to improve yourself TOMORROW WILL BE A BETTER GIORNO you can say and everyone will believe it jotaro is v intelligent except when he's a dumbass as you have seen re: romance
