[ He can feel Star Platinum's grip on his ankle, and he feels himself squirming. Joseph's deciding to hang onto the ledge with Hermit Purple and it's with a sigh that he calls out to the open window. ]
Hello grandson...
[ Joseph really doesn't want to see the expression on his face. ]
[ There's no arguments on this end when Joseph uses Hermit Purple to swing himself back in through the window, nevermind the fact that there's still a mad looking Star Platinum and Jotaro Kujo looking at him.
He lands lithely on his two feet and looks Jotaro straight in the eye.
[Rather than allowing Star Platinum to fizzle out of view, Jotaro keeps him right where he is, so yes, that's two sets of Very Angry eyes staring Joseph's way. But at least his Stand has released its grip on Joseph for now.]
Going by your impromptu sightseeing tour, I'm guessing you already know what this is about, so I'll get to the point. I have some questions for you, and you're going to answer me truthfully.
[ He answers, looking Jotaro and Star Platinum straight in the eyes. He's a man, he's not going to back down. The only reason he know what this is about is because his best friend already beat him up over this, but to have it come from Jotaro too was a different issue altogether. ]
Through a mistake! I swear I was just...! I met Tomoko and she was such a sweet girl and one thing led to another and she never told me and I never bothered to look until I turn 90 apparently!
[ Yeah Jotaro, you're not supposed to be making your grandpa squirm. Not like that's gonna change anything considering that Joseph is in deep shit. ]
A mistake. [That's... the wrong answer. Not that there's anything Joseph can say that Jotaro will consider the "right" answer. With one hand, he reaches up to grab a fistful of Joseph's collar....] Would you consider me throwing you out this window a mistake too?
[He won't do it (probably) but that isn't how he's making it sound.]
No! Not at all! I didn't even know I had a child with her until Travis told me and I saw Josuke for myself! I apparently don't even remember her until I'm in my 90s!
[ It's getting kinda hard to breathe, Jotaro. All this comes out in a rapid way, in between desperately trying to get any breath. ]
Travis Touchdown... He says he read about us a lot since we got famous! He told me about Dio's Stand and you apparently like boats and fish!
[ Something which Joseph didn't know until that very moment. He takes a breath, feeling a bit more relaxed that he can do so, but still super tense because his grandson is still not letting go of him. ]
[He should have recoiled a little at the fact that... somehow, somehow his hobbies seem to be public knowledge, but instead, there are two words that Joseph just spoke that stand out to him the most. You get three guesses and the first two don't count.]
[ Jotaro plz, your granddad is not some grunt from some two bit punk gang. But still, he has a feeling that this information isn't going to save him from being beat up. ]
[So basically exactly what they've come to understand the real Dio does. Gross.]
Good. Then I'll get back to the matter at hand.
As much as I'd like to be able to contact your wife and tell her you've been sleeping around, it doesn't look like our memories of this place remain once we leave. So the question now is what I should do with you.
[We're going to come full circle, I'm, so excited.
But here it comes, Jotaro swings his arm and... slams his fist into Joseph's.. gut..... Not hard enough to knock him off his feet, but hard enough that it still hurts.]
If I find out there have been other women, you'd better learn how to hide yourself properly.

Hello grandson...

[Sure they're nice enough words, but behind that even tone, Jotaro is Mad.]

Going by your impromptu sightseeing tour, I'm guessing you already know what this is about, so I'll get to the point. I have some questions for you, and you're going to answer me truthfully.
First: do you love your wife?
no subject
[ He answers, looking Jotaro and Star Platinum straight in the eyes. He's a man, he's not going to back down. The only reason he know what this is about is because his best friend already beat him up over this, but to have it come from Jotaro too was a different issue altogether. ]
no subject
[That isn't a question. At least, his tone doesn't imply it as such.]
Then, my second question: why does Higashikata Josuke exist?
[...That isn't how you talk about your relatives, Jotaro.]
no subject
[ Yeah Jotaro, you're not supposed to be making your grandpa squirm. Not like that's gonna change anything considering that Joseph is in deep shit. ]
no subject
[He won't do it (probably) but that isn't how he's making it sound.]
Do you still see that woman?
no subject
[ It's getting kinda hard to breathe, Jotaro. All this comes out in a rapid way, in between desperately trying to get any breath. ]
no subject
He has no idea who this Travis guy is though.]
Who is Travis?
no subject
[ Something which Joseph didn't know until that very moment. He takes a breath, feeling a bit more relaxed that he can do so, but still super tense because his grandson is still not letting go of him. ]
no subject
Dio's Stand?!
What does he know?
no subject
[ Jotaro plz, your granddad is not some grunt from some two bit punk gang. But still, he has a feeling that this information isn't going to save him from being beat up. ]
no subject
Stop time? You realise what you're saying sounds ridiculous, don't you? If you're feeding me lies to give yourself more time, I'll tell you this now.
You'll regret it later.
no subject
[ JUST GONNA BREATHE DEEPLY HERE WHILE HE HAS THE CHANCE. ]
no subject
[S...ort.. of. So he really is from a world different to theirs.]
And we're sure he isn't a threat?
no subject
[ This is what your grandfather is using Hermit Purple for, prior to the actual Dio coming here. ]
no subject
Good. Then I'll get back to the matter at hand.
As much as I'd like to be able to contact your wife and tell her you've been sleeping around, it doesn't look like our memories of this place remain once we leave. So the question now is what I should do with you.
Maybe I should make you impotent.
no subject
[ He's seen Star Platinum crush teeth made out of mineral, what chance do his poor genitals have? ]
no subject
[A beat.]
Any last words?
[It's okay Joseph, he isn't actually going to do it, but he is going to hit you, I'm so sorry, how do I atone for this...]
no subject
Oh nooooo...!
[ Joseph is preparing himself for the impact. ]
no subject
But here it comes, Jotaro swings his arm and... slams his fist into Joseph's.. gut..... Not hard enough to knock him off his feet, but hard enough that it still hurts.]
