↳ “ Get out of my way . ” From Jotaro !
sender : @vialaviolenza / source : prompted / status : open .
slender hands loosen around the flimsy paper of the map in their grasp ——— thin as gossamer, a whisper of a crinkle sighing through the air as the neat folds go limp without enough force to keep them erect . then , sharp violets flit from the color - coded diagram of the world around them , shifting focus from the golden star declaring ' you are here !! ' , to catch the sour image of jotaro in their increasingly narrow gaze . the issue of diminishing the unfortunate obscurity of the location mr. joestar had so hastily designated for their debriefing session evaporates in the intensifying heat of kakyoin's irritation ; admittedly , were he dealing with polnareff , he would have snapped in the vein of a popsicle stick in the hands of an overactive child . but he manages to maintain his composure for now , enough to cognize the underlying implications of jotaro's acid tongue .
he usually doesn't talk to me like that . concerning what he knows of him , jotaro had never been anything of a friendly or approachable person ——— sometimes ( oftentimes , even ) , he's unambiguously callous and rude , which should make him unlikeable & a thorn in kakyoin's side , considering he never handled the presence of people who exhibited similar behaviors with any extent of patience . however , the truth is that he's never met anyone quite like kujo jotaro ; though he's certainly encountered his fair share of mannerless bastards & faux - edgy scumfucks deep in the abyss of teen angst , kakyoin cannot rightfully view them in the same light as his friend . for all his flaws , jotaro has a pure heart ( i saw it that day he saved me , i haven't lost sight of it since ) , and though it doesn't excuse his crass tendencies , it allows kakyoin to be more understanding of them , to see through them as if he peers through the polished lens of a microscope bearing the true content of jotaro's core .
some people may feel so inclined to call that bias . given that he hadn't a single friend ( one that wasn't an extension of his own conscience , at least ) before they met , kakyoin really wouldn't concern himself with anyone else's single - sided opinion .
all of this considered , kakyoin knows the difference between standard jotaro shit - talking and something is actually wrong with him . the premier member of their coterie that tends to receive the worst of jotaro's discourtesy is his own grandfather , with whom they are currently attempting to reconnect , & at times polnareff , whose pea - sized brain could render even a saint ready to wrap their hands around his neck . figuratively or otherwise .
" oh , " kakyoin starts , mouth slanting with indignance while his arms cross over his chest , crumpling the map against his immaculately buttoned gakuran , " i see . you're so graciously telling me to move instead of just shoving me out of the way , right ?? you must be in a good mood . "
even if he can be understanding of jotaro's disposition , that doesn't equate with a willingness to put up with it .
" sorry , jojo , but i don't honor any requests made by someone who's not talking to me like a normal person , " he says , hip protruding at the perfect angle for a hand to perch upon it . " so i'll be staying right here . but if you're so eager to storm off & get lost in the middle of a foreign country , you're welcome to go ahead of me . i wish you an ounce of luck . "
a huff billows past his nares like smoke . he doesn't like this . & he knows jotaro isn't dumb enough to go off on his own when all they have for god knows how many kilometers is each other . despite himself , the pearl - handled knives of kakyoin's eyes soften into something less severe , just subtly enough to perhaps be a trick of the desert sun . " or you could stay here and tell me what's bothering you so i can try to help . it's your call , jotaro . "

↳ ❛ sorry, did you want to be alone ?? ❜
sender : @standbowed / source : prompted / status : closed .
daylight hits the heart of town at an awkward angle , offering a hint that afternoon has started to bleed into evening . kakyoin tugs at his sleeve to unveil the face of his watch , seeking exact digits to quantify the hour of day & calculating the quickly - elapsing hours remaining to advance the investigation before night falls . lavender eyes then raise toward the striking yellow sky , noting the hints of violet & cerise that slowly creep past the horizon , & he employs the stretch of calm to reflect on his findings so far . exactly how many people had nijimura keicho struck with the arrow ?? he’d gleaned his motive from okuyasu , but even he hadn’t been able to provide a complete number of those implemented in his late brother’s target practice , even if he could name quite a few , & claimed believable ignorance to just how many stand users had been created in the escapade .
how outrageous that a teenage boy could acquire such an incredible power & exploit it to this degree . nevertheless , kakyoin cannot be too surprised ; with all he’s seen & been through , this is but another bizarre event he’s found himself roped into ━━━━ except now , he’s actively chosen the chaos , & with a notable enthusiasm , given that stand research is the aspect of his job for which he feels the most passion . truthfully , this is the least taxing thing he’s meant to be investigating here .
the calling of his name extracts him from his thoughts , prompting a shift of his head toward the direction of the newly - recognizable voice . widened with surprise , cool - toned amethysts swiftly warm up at the sight of the young girl bounding to catch up with him , & kakyoin comes to a stop to accommodate her , smiling wide as they exchange greetings . they haven’t been acquainted that long , but kakyoin is positively charmed by hachi ━━━━ the bubbly , puppylike young woman exudes a kind of sweet innocence that he feels compelled to protect , & considering the monstrous depravity occupying the shadows of the town she calls home , that instinct meets intense reinforcement . like hell he’ll let her name show up on the list of victims .
“ huh ?? ” he voices , lashes fluttering in his confusion . “ now , what would make you ask me such a thing ?? did i look really busy , or something ?? ” kakyoin chuckles , brushing a curtain of crimson hair over his shoulder . “ actually , hachi - chan , you’re just the person i was hoping to see . how has figuring out your stand been going ?? have you discovered anything new ?? ”

↳ ❛ are you asking me out on a date ?? ❜ From Jotaro … 😜
sender : @vialaviolenza / source : prompted / status : closed .
many times had kakyoin envisioned his graduation ━━━━ the sense of fulfillment as one chapter reaches its end & another begins ; the glow of conviction emanating from his chest as he stands in the splendor of accomplishment among his peers , in the effulgence of his mother’s teary - eyed gaze & the rare expression of pride he has long desired from his father . & now that the day has arrived at last , he finds as much contentment in all of these things as he’d conceived these last three years , but what brings him the greatest sense of joy is one presence that had evaded his foresight until a fateful day two novembers ago .
it seems that jotaro has not left his side since then , or perhaps it is he that has been so closely adhered all this time , if it isn’t the work of some intangible force that holds them together in the same vein as what keeps the earth orbiting the sun . either way , though kakyoin knows better than to take anything for granted , the stability & security that comes with feeling him there nigh on always cannot be matched by anything else he has ever experienced . their shared moment of triumph in completing their secondary education is no different . the praise & acknowledgment & congratulatory remarks are flashes of starlight in a darkening sky , but jotaro is the silvery moon that beckons the tide of kakyoin’s mood .
after posing for an inordinate amount of photos for both of their mothers ( holly - san had kept insisting they stand closer & closer together , almost like she knows , though kakyoin cannot imagine jotaro had revealed any details of their relationship to her ━━━━ & his own mother had been no better , teasingly remarking that they’ll thank her for capturing them this way many years into the future ) , they had managed to slip away , finding a shred of privacy at the landing of the stone stairway where they’d first met . as kakyoin gazes up toward the torii - like gate framing the summit of the hill , he silently revisits that moment their eyes met , though he’d been under the influence of an external evil . he’d been no part of himself at the time , but he thinks that something in his chest sparked at the sight of jotaro , a hint from the universe that his life was going to change forever . he places a hand over his clothed core , the scar hidden beneath layers of fabric tingling in response to the intercepted touch .
jotaro’s words pull a humored smile from kakyoin , violet eyes rolling as he turns to face him . his suggestion of the two of them straying even further from the crowd to get ice cream had mostly been made in passing , considering the balmy weather & the way their uniforms ━━━━ which they are wearing for the last time ━━━━ tend to trap heat . it’s something they’ve done together before , & though they will likely do it again without the routine of heading to & from school , kakyoin is a little too sentimental to abandon the chance to do it this way one last time .
“ has it been a date for the past year ?? ” he asks , a scarlet brow arching with interest . “ you never outright said as much . but some things don’t need to be said , i suppose . ” kakyoin turns away just as his smile starts to grow , but his dimpled cheek gives him away , a soft laugh barely audible over the slight crinkle of the paper holding the flowers his parents had given him , cradled in his arms with his ribbon - tied certificate . slowly , he saunters his way up the stairs , cherry - red tresses flicked away with a strategic turn of his head as he casts a glance over his shoulder , a glimmer in his eye as he looks back at jotaro .
“ well ?? are you coming for our first date as high school graduates , or not ?? ”

↳ ❛ i thought you’d like some company . ❜ // Polnareff
sender : @redlineoffate / source : prompted / status : open .
it’s rare for kakyoin to be left alone in his hospital room . his mother is sure to stop by for at least a few hours with each new sunrise , voicing her elation that his recovery has gone smoothly overall & offering small trinkets to remind him of the comforts of home ; his handheld games , his favorite books , vhs tapes of films she thought he’d like . & when it wasn’t her by his side , it was jotaro ; kakyoin finds immense comfort in his presence , whether they’re engaged in thoughtful conversation or sitting in comfortable silence . it’s the warmth of friendship , a life - giving light he’d been certain he would never experience a mere amount months ago , only for it to find him at rock bottom & blossom through cracks in concrete & stone .
his heart aches at the thought of mr. avdol & iggy & the devastating reality that he will never see them again . though the lofty likelihood of death had not been lost on any one of them as they sought out that great evil in the heart of the desert , that awareness had not made the grave reality any easier to accept ━━━━ even more so for kakyoin , who had so narrowly managed to slip free from the clutches of his own demise . what does it mean that he survived & they didn’t ?? how can he truly cherish the second chance fate had graciously offered him , but heartlessly withheld from his beloved comrades ??
mr. joestar urged him not to think that way , the few times he’d visited . fate cannot be personified , cannot embody human attributes ━━━━ it is a phenomenon beyond the bounds of even the vastest intellects ; a faceless , nameless deity that rejects the perception of any prying eyes seeking to decipher its true nature . but when kakyoin lies on the stark white sheets of this bed , cloaked in the depth of the night & left with only his thoughts as company , he cannot help but ask these unanswerable questions . had their lives been given for his , somehow ?? is it fair that he will live the rest of his life while they remain frozen in time , at the eternal end of some tragic story ??
the late morning light spills through undrawn drapes , casting a beam of white warmth over his abdomen . he opens his eyes just as the door to his room swings on its hinge , & a half - curtained gaze doubles in width as a familiar figure crosses into the room , filling kakyoin’s vision like some kind of holy figure as daylight catches in his silvery hair .
“ polnareff ?? ” he asks through a stolen breath , though no answer is needed . sitting up nigh on ninety - degrees , a mountain of pillows tumbling down his straightened back , kakyoin reaches out for his friend almost instinctively , the intravenous tube burrowed into his arm swinging like a loose rope . in an image that might be shocking to any who witnessed how sourly kakyoin behaved toward polnareff for the bulk of their shared journey , his true regard for him shines through , the glow of a campfire beneath the blackened desert sky ; kakyoin is smiling wide , his dimples on full display as the whites of his teeth fill the space between rosy lips .
“ nobody told me you were coming , ” he utters , voice airy with surprise & eyes alight with genuine mirth to see his friend , & to see him looking well . “ jojo said he hasn’t seen you since you went back to france . you didn’t come all the way to japan just to see me , did you ?? ”

↳ ❛ how did you get this scar ?? ❜
sender : @blueshiftting / source : prompted / status : closed .
a manicured hand lifts to trace index & middle fingers along the slightly raised skin in question , the eerie symmetry of perfectly straight lines foreign - feeling to the touch , despite the age of the injury . kakyoin recalls the incident with resonant clarity ━━━━ the way he & polnareff noisily bickered while attempting to hide from the mysterious threat , incognizant of the fact that their voices only increased their odds of being located & struck by the sightless assassin .
“ n’doul , ” comes a simple answer , kakyoin’s voice pensive , yet steady as he withdraws his hand from his face . “ i thought you would recognize his work ━━━━ dio brought him on board shortly after i left egypt , didn’t he ?? ”
when the wounds were fresh , kakyoin lamented his lack of familiarity with geb & its user ; perhaps if he had known the manner in which they operated , he wouldn’t have to wear proof of their attack for the rest of his life , at the central point of his face , no less . but he has learned to pacify that shame , & to live with the wounds that will never leave him , despite how time has healed his body . looking in the mirror is nothing of the dreadful ordeal it once had been : he is proud of what he has survived , & far from concerned about how those who could never understand may feel inclined to judge , or worse , pity .
scarred lavenders find cordelia’s face in the mild light of day . he’d been astonished to find her in morioh , though it seems a testament to the inescapable truth that stand users seem to connect & reconnect against all odds . they’d once stood on the same ground , then faced each other as enemies , & now they’ve met again , conditions of the past seemingly obsolete but unforgettable . with all the work kakyoin has tasked himself with in relation to what remains of dio ( which is far more than it should be , but as the resident ‘ expert ’ on him at spw , no other individual is better suited to bear the burden ) , he could almost laugh at the ways in which the past keeps coming back , making life seem like a never - ending circle rather than a progressing timeline .
“ i always wondered what happened to you , ” he confesses , gaze falling toward where his hands rest on the cherrywood table , light reflected in the jade polish adorning short , well - kept nails . “ i know that the d’arby brothers are still out there ━━━━ same with mariah & midler , & presumably the others who weren’t killed . but it seemed like you just disappeared when everything was said & done . ” slowly , he fixes his eyes on her once again , a curious intensity to his glare , but an open - mindedness , too . she had agreed to meet him at the hotel , after all . “ forgive me if this question is ten years too late , but what will you do now that the one you pledged your life to is only a memory ?? ”

↳ ❛ you shouldn’t be out here by yourself . ❜
sender : @perfectionistspun / source : prompted / status : open .
the familiarity of the sudden voice is the sole reason kakyoin doesn’t spring to his feet , hierophant emerging from his essence poised to deal significant damage to whoever would dare to ambush him . he’d seen a lot of her within the last day or so , more than what he’d come to know of the stiff but benevolent presence that phased in & out of their journey like a vigilant moon ━━━━ thus , he doesn’t have to question that it’s halland approaching where he rests a good distance away from the bustling souq , pardoned from the burning desert sun by a makeshift canopy beneath an abandoned bedouin tent . iggy noisily laps at a dish of clean water beside him , paying their visitor little mind as his concerns remain at the point from which they seldom go astray ; himself .
“ ms. oates , ” comes a cordial greeting , a head of scarlet hair tipping forward in an abbreviated bow as kakyoin sits with his legs folded comfortably at his side . the hand unoccupied with curling slender fingers around his newly - acquired sunglasses brushes against a crisp pant leg , halting to drape delicately against an exposed ankle . “ i know it must look as if we’re wandering about aimlessly right now , but iggy’s nose hasn’t failed us so far . he’ll take me to the others no problem . ” scarred eyes flit toward where the aforementioned dog has come to rest against his thigh , cradling his wounded leg closer to himself & emitting small whines of discomfort . kakyoin frowns . “ he just wanted to take a break from walking for a bit . i’m sure you can understand why . ”
a stretch of silence follows as he considers all that had occurred within the last few days ━━━━ the whirlwind of emotions between fearing the loss of his eyesight & practicing gratitude that , thanks to the unimaginable skill of the speedwagon doctors , he’s back on his feat & will only be left with a couple of scars . despite this stroke of fortune , kakyoin remains cognizant of the nearness of their journey’s end ; a harbinger of apprehension & the cold feeling at his core that some of them will not be returning home .
“ i’m not so worried about being attacked out here , ” he tells her , violet irises lifting to examine her solemn face . “ we’re close enough to dio for me to think that the enemy is waiting for us to walk into their trap instead of trying to prevent our approach . even so , i haven’t quite let my guard down . ” his gaze trails toward iggy once more , & then outward , toward the direction they’d been going earlier ━━━━ toward their comrades , but also toward dio .
“ all of that aside , i wanted to thank you personally , ms. oates , ” says kakyoin , eyes brightening slightly . “ the doctors mentioned that it was you that alerted them to mine & iggy’s conditions . without your help , i’d still be wasting time in that hospital . . . & god knows what would have happened to our furry friend , here . ”

↳ ❛ you gonna be a good boy for me ? ❜
sender : @wiitchtime / source : prompted / status : open .
the indelicate inquiry cuts through kakyoin’s composure , though only shallowly , evidenced solely through the halt of blinking eyes & the curious parting of sealed lips . bright lavenders then raise to survey the subject placed across from him , her unaltered air of confidence wordlessly clarifying that her utterance had been in every way intentional ; confirmation to what he’d already believed to be the case .
many bizarre things have been said to him on the job ━━━━ the unpredictable diversity of his encounters is a premier aspect of what makes field work thrilling , rival to only the adrenaline rush of combat . but her question is unsettling in a manner exceedingly specific ; similar words had once been strung together & draped over him to elicit a reaction , sailing smoothly along an imperious tone all but identical to that in which she had just addressed him , albeit a taste for carnage doesn’t seem as evident upon her tongue .
despite this , the images of his past flashing across his eyelids serve to remind him of why he is here , rather than dredging up fears long conquered . he is not the person he was when he first encountered dio , & he hasn’t been so pathetic a creature since he faced him for the final time amid the modernity of an ancient land . thus , the fact that she’d managed to sound like him intentionally or otherwise is more grating than it is distressing .
“ is that meant to be some kind of condition for you to offer information , ” kakyoin starts , quirking a roseate brow behind his glasses , “ or are you making formalities , miss ?? ” there’s a roundness to his tone that equips his curiosity with authenticity , but it exists inside the sharpness of polished intellect , wit . “ either way , as intrigued as i am by your story & your connection to dio , i resolve to behave in whatever manner i see fit . ”

⚾️ 🤸♀️ mwah mwah
miscellaneous symbol headcanons .
⚾️ ━ does your muse enjoy sports ?? do they play any , or do they simply prefer to watch ?? do they have a favorite sport ??
kakyoin is a casual sports enjoyer for sure !! it’s never been something he was especially deeply interested in ( things like art , literature / poetry , & film are his core interests ) , but his father has long been a baseball fan & despite their strained relationship , this shared interest was the one thing they could always bond over as he grew up . this considered , baseball has something of a sentimental value to him , & he upholds this into adulthood in watching & going to games with his own kids .
he never seriously played any sports , but his parents would sometimes sign him up for sports camps during his childhood in an attempt to get him to be more social . kakyoin was not particularly athletic back then , though , aside from being a decently fast runner , so this never really caught on . ( sidenote , but he hates sweating , & in addition to feeling out of place to begin with , he really wasn’t all that inspired to give an earnest effort , lol ) .
& of course we all know kakyoin likes sumo lmfao . ( EXTREME VOLUME WARNING BTW )
🤸♀️ ━ how active is your muse ?? do they exercise regularly ?? do they do things like yoga ?? what else do they do to keep fit & active ?? are they flexible ?? can they do parkour ??
given that we just discussed his lack of athleticism in childhood , allow me to redeem him a little by saying that once he’s older ( & starts actively training with his stand ) , kakyoin is in excellent shape & can achieve physical feats that most people can’t . i’ve always thought that for those who have stands that manifest as a physical , humanoid being outside of themself , if more they train & take care of their own body , it reflects in their stand in some ways , too ━━━━ in the same vein that if your stand is injured / harmed in some way , the user suffers similar or even identical inflictions . once kakyoin realizes this , it’s all the more motivation for him to ensure he’s in good physical condition .
spw agent training is also very rigorous , & kakyoin not only took it very seriously but finished top of his class . his flexibility & core strength increases significantly during this time , & he tends to maintain it by exercising on a strict schedule & doing yoga & pilates to keep his body strong & to maintain control over it . sparring is also a great way to sharpen his combat skills , but his peers rarely ever want to spar with him because he’s hard to beat , lol ━━━━ what he may lack in sheer physical strength , he makes up for in technique & strategy .
i have never imagined kak doing parkour but honestly . . . i feel like a lot of spw / combat training is just glorified parkour anyway so why not lmao . imagine the morioh kids see him do a backflip in the middle of a fight & are like kakyoin - san teach us how to do that right now ━━━━

��� send 💪 to pick up / carry my muse .
sender : @ironleonine / source : prompted / status : selectively accepting .
it seems the sterile white of the hospital walls holds the power to warp time . each day feels infinitely longer than just twenty - four hours , & the sliver of the outside world visible from his window serves as the only constant reminder that life had not evaporated in the heat of death’s grip ; the transition from winter to spring offering a new hope . perhaps his healing brain & body are to blame for such a persistent placebo , but kakyoin’s fragility lessens each day , the capabilities he’d exhibited before the incident within his reach , & his sights set ever higher , inspired by jotaro & the others to grow as strong as this lifetime would allow . dio may be gone , but there’s no telling what else could be out there ━━━━ the sole certainty is that kakyoin will face them without fear .
charlie’s visit had been cause for astonishment , though perhaps it shouldn’t have been . the depth of their bond is clear , rather , kakyoin had not been expecting her to make the trip to japan once she’d returned to her hometown , following the conclusion of their egyptian escapade . she’d called a few times once he’d roused from the coma , & hearing her voice again provided him a sense of solace he hadn’t known he’d needed ━━━━ some fretful part of him fostered concerns as to whether or not their friendship could survive such a massive distance ( he is still not so used to having friends , after all , especially not ones who’ve accompanied him to hell & back ) , thus , he cherished the reassurance . however , in true charlie hunt fashion , she hadn’t so much as hinted to her plans to visit him in person , leaving his heart rate to spike dangerously when she’d suddenly poked her head into his room without even an hour’s notice .
even so , the reunion had been worth the heart attack . kakyoin couldn’t hide his excitement to see her again even if he’d been inspired to try , & he valued the opportunity to interact meaningfully with charlie without the constant anxiety that someone or something may be closing in on them with intent to kill . despite the fact that he’d been unresponsive & fighting for his life just over a week ago , there’s a pleasant normality about the tranquil atmosphere , & it renders him impossibly more determined to take his recovery by the reins & leave this place as soon as he can .
“ oh , look , ” starts kakyoin , raising a slender arm to gesture toward the window . “ the cherry blossoms are starting to bloom already . they’re a bit early this year . ” violet eyes shimmer with interest , that same hand shifting to swipe ruby - red tresses away from his line of sight as he leans forward in the bed . “ ah , i bet we could get a better view from the roof ━━━━ jojo sneaks me up there sometimes , ” he reveals this with a breathless giggle , gaze adhered to the burst of pink coloring the hospital campus . “ but if you don’t want to go to the trouble , i’m sure he’ll come see me after school , so no worr━━━━charlie ?! ”
prior to the chance for words of protest to fly past his lips , kakyoin feels himself being lifted from his bed , the open top of his pajamas fluttering in the sudden breeze of the motion ( he hadn’t bothered to button it entirely , wanting to allow the wound on his abdomen the chance to ‘ breathe ’ as much as it could through the careful bandaging ) . when his vision stops spinning , he realizes that he’s in charlie’s arms . bridal style .
“ what on earth do you think you’re doing ?? ” he wheezes at her , keeping his voice down so as not to alarm the staff ( or put too much strain on his body ) , but ensuring his tone is as severe as it can be at this volume . his whole face flushes , a deeper cerise than the blossoms swaying in the vernal winds & complementing the crimson waves of his hair . “ i can walk , for fuck’s sake !! put me down this instant !! i won’t break from going up the stairs . ” we’ll just have to go slowly , that’s all .

👻 - How does your muse handle feeling scared? Do they enjoy horror? Do they believe in the paranormal? What calms your muse down? Do they have any scary stories?
miscellaneous symbol headcanons .
it depends on where in his timeline we’re examining ; kak has come quite a long way from the person he was when he first encountered dio . back then , he’d never really experienced true fear like that before ━━━━ isolation aside , kakyoin lived a pretty normal life up until that point , meaning he didn’t really have much to be afraid of ( aside from like , dying alone , but that’s an existential kind of fear & it’s something he could just shove to the back of his brain when he didn’t want to think about it lol ) . so that moment when dio approached him was the first time in his life that he had ever felt genuinely scared , paralyzed with fear & unable to push it down anywhere ; completely at dio’s mercy .
& it was partially because he was feeling so many complex emotions at that time that he fell victim to the mousetrap , but i think that polarizing concoction of terror & comfort really disoriented him & made him completely vulnerable ; even more so than he already was being a despondent gay teenager who’s finally met someone that can see the part of him that no one else could .
i think it’s safe to say he didn’t really ‘ handle ’ that situation in the best way , but who can blame him ?? he had to be either 16 or newly 17 at the time , & beyond that , i don’t think anything could have prepared him to face dio for the first time , even if he wasn’t in such a dark place already .
throughout their journey to egypt , kakyoin spends a lot of time reflecting on that experience & the events that took place while he was under the influence of the fleshbud . he knew that he had to face dio again & conquer his fear of him if he ever wanted to move on with his life & reach his fullest potential ( also , he just wants revenge , & that in itself is an entire other world of motivation , alongside helping jotaro & holly ) , so any spare moment he gets to psych himself up to look dio in the face & do everything in his power to end his literal reign of terror doesn’t go to waste .
& let me tell you how proud of him i am for doing the damn thing . he not only faced dio head on but didn’t buckle or yield in the slightest , he held his head high & he was fully prepared to put everything on the line to stop him . i know i’m totally biased , but i get actual chills thinking about how courageous he was in that scene . that moment was so liberating for him , & even if it didn’t end in the way he’d hoped ( kakyoin is not fucking dead what are you talking about ) , he had never seen or known himself clearer than he did in that moment , never felt more dignified & accomplished . the fear was gone . & he knew he could rely on his friends to take care of the rest .
after that , kakyoin is virtually fearless . of course he’s human & still feels scared from time to time , but i mean that fear will never hinder or stop him ever again . it motivates him ; it’s another thing that gets his blood pumping & reminds him of everything he’s survived . why can’t he survive this , too ??
okay i spent way too much time on the first question so let me speedrun the last four . kakyoin likes horror aesthetics but he’s generally not all that interested in actual horror films because he finds all the gore & stuff very distasteful ; he’d much rather read some horror manga that’s artfully done or read some edgar allen poe or something & conjure up the macabre in his own mind than have it played up for shock value . he just thinks it’s kind of lame . i think literally any stand user should believe in the paranormal , especially since they can see ghosts & shit . but even before all of that was apparent to him , kak definitely believed in ghosts & ‘ the other world ’ . beyond the water tower thing , he works as an agent at spw now so of course he has scary stories ━━━━ man has a near - death experience at least once a week in the height of his field career lmfao .
as for what calms him down , he actually has an unwitting habit of hierophant wrapping its tendrils around him ; usually his legs if he’s sitting down & his shoulders & arms if he’s standing . this stems from not really having anyone to turn to for comfort when he was a child ━━━━ he had his mother , in theory , but once their relationship entered its strained era , he didn’t really feel comfortable approaching her for something so vulnerable . & his dad . . . lmfao .
another thing that calms him is sketching & painting . he has a sketchbook literally filled to the brim with random stuff he’d drawn on the way to egypt ( it’s mostly jotaro lmfao but anyway ) when he felt anxious or couldn’t get his mind to settle . it’s something he carries into adulthood , too ; he’s usually not the type to carry a lot of things around but he definitely makes sure his clothes have pockets big enough to fit his lil sketchbook .

miscellaneous symbol headcanons .
💤 ━ how does your muse sleep ?? are they a light sleeper , or are they out the moment their head hits the pillow ?? do they nap ?? do they struggle to sleep due to things like insomnia , or nightmares ??
i’m ngl he kind of sleeps like shit lol . i mean , the few times we see him sleeping in canon he’s either unconscious or having a nightmare , & obviously there’s the factor that he’s on some gayass journey to fight an evil bisexual vampire that he is terrified of & that definitely wouldn’t help anyone get a good night’s rest , but i feel like it could go deeper than that . i imagine most of the other crusaders are just happy to have a few hours of peace & a warm bed when they can find it , not to mention they’re fuckin exhausted from all of the fighting & traveling , but it seems like kak in particular continues to have a hard time , whether it’s because he’s trying to psych himself up to face dio again or if he has a history of sleeping problems .
it’s hard to ever be fully comfortable in an environment where you feel as though you’re constantly being judged . i could easily see kakyoin being that angsty teen that stays up late drawing in his sketchbook or writing in his gay little journal or playing video games on mute because maybe he feels like the late night when his parents are asleep is the only time he can really be himself without consequence . but he’s an early riser , too , & has never been late to school ever in his life , so he averages a disgustingly low amount of sleep every night & has trained himself to function on that .
as an adult , kakyoin still has some troubles with sleep ( he’s a remarkably light sleeper after egypt & also has literal ptsd so , you know , not a good combination ) , but has mostly grown out of his teenage habits , aside from when he stays up late for work . but generally , through his years in the field , he’s learned the vitality of proper rest & listening to his body when it demands repose ━━━━ not to mention once jouta is born & screams the night away throughout his infancy , he vows to never take sleep for granted again lol . that being said , he’d never had an inclination toward naps before but after becoming a dad , once that baby is asleep HE is asleep . they napping together because he knows damn well the moment jouta wakes up all hell will break loose .

↳ ❛ will i see you again ?? ❜ - Giorno <3
sender : @praeteritus-memories / source : prompted / status : closed .
perched at the window of giorno’s study , violet eyes trained on the relative serenity of the world below , kakyoin’s relaxed , though still decorous posture tightens with the sudden question . they both know his investigation is nearing its end ; less than a week remains before he is expected to report back with his findings concerning the son of dio & the reconstructed passione ( one willing to cooperate with speedwagon , at that , which seemed unfathomable prior to giorno’s ascension to power ) ━━━━ & while he’s never been one to underestimate the wealth of knowledge & the potentially life - altering experiences his missions can offer , kakyoin could not have foreseen that he would grow so close to the one tethered to the former face of his nightmares by parentage .
given , he knew prior to meeting giorno in the flesh that he’s nothing like his father ; polnareff made that exceedingly clear in his memos . but even with all the praise his old friend showered on the new don , kakyoin hadn’t been prepared to love giorno this intensely ━━━━ to carve out enough space in his fortified heart to keep this precious boy safe from harm , to prove to him that the comfort & affection he’d been denied by his disgraceful parents could be offered by someone more worthy , someone who would never abandon him . that it’s not too late .
“ oh , giogio . of course you will , ” he answers , raising himself from the windowsill & whirling ’round to face giorno , looking untouchable behind his gilded & lacquered desk , despite the vulnerable nature of his question . then , he looks closer , & kakyoin sees it ; the unsurety in his eyes , the concern that the bond they’ve cultivated during his stay will evaporate the moment kakyoin is no longer a stone’s throw away . the heart - shaped smile that curves pinkish lips is mild & attentive , & paired with the softness of his eyes , it extends a reassuring promise .
“ even if it won’t be the easiest thing to arrange , i’ll make sure to visit you whenever i can , ” kakyoin vows , sure steps carrying him closer to where giorno is seated . “ that’s an effort i’m more than willing to make . & in the time we’re apart , there are plenty of ways we can keep in touch ━━━━ i know it’s not the same as me physically being here , but it’s still worth a lot . ” daintily , he leans on the desk’s edge , a bit of melancholy seeping into his otherwise optimistic countenance . “ i would be quite sad if i didn’t get to hear about what you’re up to . ”
a few beats elapse in pensive silence prior to kakyoin reaching out with a delicate hand , placing it atop giorno’s head of golden hair ( extra - careful not to disturb its immaculate style ; he understands exactly how important that is ) . he smiles wider , effulgence beaming in his eyes & warmth wreathing the laughter that spills from his throat . “ you have to tell me about everything , okay ?? even if you think it’s boring . it won’t be to me . ”

↳ ❛ how about a kiss before i go ?? ❜ - Jotaro <3
sender : @praeteritus-memories / source : prompted / status : open .
it’s nothing of a rarity for jotaro to initiate displays of affection ━━━━ he’d always had a tendency to rely more on actions than words , given his eloquence tends to falter where matters of the heart are concerned . & considering the ways in which they’ve always just clicked naturally , kakyoin isn’t often of the expectation that jotaro will put his desires into words , even if he’s made a lot of progress since their relationship began ( & perhaps kakyoin finds a fair amount of fun in encouraging it , showering his beloved in loving remarks & watching with fluttering heart as he gives his best , adorably flustered efforts to reply ) .
but even after so many years of intimate companionship , jotaro still manages to surprise him . the request sees kakyoin freezing for half a second as they linger in the doorway ; obviously he was not going to allow his fiancé to depart without a sweet send off , especially on a day like today , but the fact that jotaro is outright asking for it is delightfully unexpected ━━━━ to the extent that a soft cerise tints the shells of kakyoin’s ears & stains his cheeks the same , all while an airy giggle thrums at the base of his throat .
“ as if i was actually going to let you leave without one , ” he says , blush - pink lips pulled into a wide , dimpled grin as slender fingers tug with a gentle firmness at the lapel of jotaro’s jacket . the gesture lessens the distance between their faces until the tips of their noses touch . “ but i’m glad you asked , baby . ”
with that , kakyoin closes the distance , pressing inward as their mouths slot together with familiar ease . there’s that white - hot spark that never goes away , even with a kiss as considerably chaste as this , & despite his intentions to keep it short & sweet , kakyoin’s arms raise to drape over jotaro’s shoulders , slanting deeper into him to indulge in his addictive taste so that it lingers on his tongue long after he’s gone . managing to seize his self control in a nick of time , he pulls away , uttering a breathless ‘ okay ’ as he separates , looking up at jotaro with starry eyes .
“ i don’t want to make you late , ” kakyoin giggles again , a playful mischief warbling in his voice . “ you have to go hand in the best thesis ever written & give the most incredible presentation about sea stars anyone has ever seen . ” his hands raise from jotaro’s shoulders to brush against his face , the warm pads of kakyoin’s thumbs gliding over his cheekbones . “ so go kick ass !! i’ll be right here to celebrate however you want when you get back . ”

↳ ❛ do you mind if i smoke ?? ❜ ( charlie 🦁 )
sender : @ironleonine / source : prompted / status : closed .
there’s a rare stretch of peace beneath the singaporean sun . since they’d arrived , they’d met a string of endless conflict ━━━━ & though it is to be expected , considering the implications of this journey , to say it had become exasperating wouldn’t suffice in capturing even a fraction of the breadth of kakyoin’s annoyance . thus , he is thankful to have some time to breathe a little easier than he had the last few days , even if he knows better than to get too comfortable . the crisp , clean breeze tousling his hair & the sunshine glittering over the sea could almost convince him to relinquish his worries for a while , however . though they are due to leave in a few hours , the amenities of this hotel have been the best of any place they’ve sought a warm bed thus far , & the spectacular view tops that list with ease . if he may never be allowed a chance to visit singapore again , he’d like to seize even a fleeting moment to appreciate all that it offers .
charlie’s arrival hadn’t been expected for a number of reasons ; it is still the early morning hours , & the rest of their group are likely taking the opportunity to catch up on rest evaded ━━━━ but beyond that , kakyoin had made his way down to the lobby & out the main entrance to a more obscure sliver of hotel grounds . then again , he is aware that he’s not hard to spot ; very few people around here could be found boasting a head of flaming red hair & an emerald green gakuran .
“ oh , no , ” he answers cordially , crimson lashes sweeping over violet eyes as he blinks , an air of surprise lingering in his expression . “ if i haven’t suffered much from secondhand smoke from my father or jotaro , i doubt you could do any harm . it doesn’t bother me . ”
it occurs to kakyoin in the scintilla of awkwardness that blooms between them that he hasn’t spent much time alone with charlie . she’s something of an enigmatic character ; cool & collected one moment & raging the next ( which kakyoin can relate to , even if he’s well - versed in keeping his rage internal . . . most of the time ) , & he has no reason to show her anything but respect based on how she’s been since their voyage began . but he’s curious about why she’d sought him out ━━━━ perhaps she’s too bored to be alone , or wishes to discuss some specific matter with him . as dawnlight climbs higher in the sky , spilling pearlescence over the cerulean waves gently swaying in view , his gaze turns toward her again , watching absentmindedly as a puff of fire ignites the end of her cigarette .
“ i’m guessing you didn’t sleep well , either , ” says kakyoin , a flatness to his tone that robs it of inquisitiveness . “ you don’t strike me as an early bird ━━━━ not this early , at least . ”

↳ @mageshot wrote : ❝ there was no place for me to return to . this was the only place i could go . ❞
prompted / closed .
humans are so infuriatingly delicate . ’twas the reason for which his mother so thoughtfully warned him about entwining himself too intimately with a member of the species , why she had dedicated what likely totals to hours detailing all she knew of their nature before her son was set to venture out & coexist with the peculiar species under the advice of the elders pertaining to his quest to achieve his final tail . & though he makes a point to listen carefully to his mother whenever she bestows glimmers of wisdom unto him , kakyoin would be untruthful were he to claim that , in that moment , he felt as though the content of her adjuration concerned him much at all ; he’d never be close enough to a human for their innate fragility to render him fearful of anything , right ??
foxfire crackles at the hearth of a lantern , casting a calming aureate glow against the angry red of the wound . kakyoin has not uttered a single word to lyric since he found them dragging themself through his mother’s garden , their trousers blotched with crumbling cakes of dirt aggregated with blood ——— not an inquiry toward their well - being , not a question regarding the events that had instigated their state of injury ; he only silently , forcefully , took them by the wrist & dragged them into his mother’s tea room . thankfully , the matriarch is fast asleep in her chamber , & despite her heightened senses , once she falls into deep enough a slumber , she could likely lie at rest during a tsunami .
he does not doubt that lyric senses his ire : he is doing very little to conceal it . perhaps he should handle the wound he is treating a bit more delicately instead of practically yanking his friends arm to & fro , but he cannot so much as hope to keep his choler at bay any more than he already is in not berating them with every morsel of his fiery spirit . both parties had been silent up to this point ; lyric starts to say something before kakyoin can shoot them a glare sharp enough to slice their tongue to ribbons , the other appearing to have taken advantage of a moment wherein the yokai pointed his face away from them to locate the roll of bandages . they are answered at first by only a miffed breath as the fox spirit begins to sheathe the sterilized bite - wound in clean , pristine ivory .
“ as if that makes this any better , ” he finally utters , voice a brandished knife . “ i’ve told you not to come here unless i’m there to escort you . you may think you’re too smart , too discerning , too willful to fall victim to the charms of my kind , but the reality is that no human is . not without the help of something other than . ” the ethereal lineaments of the kitsune’s face harden with frustration , an expression that looks almost unnatural to a creature so renowned for its serene beauty . even so , his heart is far from hardened . he feels for lyric’s predicament , aches to have encountered them a stride away from death’s doorstep . that is why he is so angry .
wetness threatens to gather in the ducts of his eyes , but he remains steadfast in blinking it away . he cannot direct his fury toward his fellow kitsune , for she only sought to behave in a way demanded by her nature . verily , he cannot truthfully pin it to lyric , either , for they said it themself : they had nowhere else to go . thus , he can only be angry with himself ; he should have known better than to think that lyric wouldn’t come back when the winds of their travels had changed course ——— he should have been more vigilant , should have taken it upon himself to meet them upon their return , whatever it took . the guilt coils at his core , & he lowers his head against the mangled muscle of their arm , the red waves of his hair cascading down the bone - white bandage as if he is bleeding onto it .
“ what do you suppose i might have done if you weren’t able to escape to me in time ?? ” he questions , the tight suspension of hot tears causing his sockets to ache . “ your flesh , your bone , your soul devoured without a trace ——— leaving me to discover the horrors of your final moments , which occurred within walking distance of where i was wandering my mother’s garden at night . i would bear that grief into every new millennium . ” the grip of clawed hands on the tanned skin of their arm tightens ; enough to break skin , but leaving blood undrawn .
“ if ever there is a next time you find yourself alone at the torii separating our world & yours , call for me as loud as you can . i will come to you , i swear it . ”
