[The warm hand on his stomach is nice, and he lets Jotaro touch him as he'd like. It's nice-- good to be wanted.]

Of course you hit him. [There's no judgment in his voice whatsoever.] He was saying things that upset you and you can be quite protective of those you care about. Frankly, I was more surprised by the notion that you two didn't fight at first.

[Adrian lays his head onto Jotaro's chest for a moment, closing his eyes and listening to his heartbeat. It's comforting to him, the beat of his life.]

Do you know what's interesting? I've actually known you for much longer than I've known him or Sypha. We knew each other for a few days at best.

You've had more time to know me, Jojo. So you do truly know me better than him.
