[Ah. Of course. Jotaro has always been clever, figuring out things on his own. Noticing details that others would not.]
Nothing escapes you, evidently. [He teases gently.] I should have known you'd have noticed. I should... be able to heal from it, but I actually don't know why it's taking so long. I was even able to heal from Trevor's consecrated whip.
[Well. With the following confession, that makes more sense. Adrian has to pull back and look up, golden eyes wide and curious, then he can't help but laugh softly.]
Of course. Trevor.
...You reached out to him, then. [It's not accusatory, just observing.]
[He sighs, lightly bumping their foreheads together.]
You heal so fast, I knew it had to be something really bad. You wouldn't still have marks like that if it were something normal. So, I figured it had to be a vampire thing. And usually I ask you about vampire things, but I couldn't do that, so...
[He shrugs a little.]
He figured out it was something out of the hold. Then it was just...how do we fix it. Apparently you fix it with fucked-up Belmont medicine.
No, that does make sense. ...For all that I mock him and his understanding of vampires, he certainly knows how our biology certainly works. Even if it's stranger to deal with one who is half.
[He strokes down Jotaro's cheek.]
I appreciate you thinking of me. Though I am sorry to have worried you so.

[He ducks his head, pressing a kiss against Adrian's hair, and prepares himself for his own vaguely awkward confession.]
...Trevor's...going to make you some. Turns out you're the one thing he and I agree on.

[He turns his head reflexively, catching Adrian's fingertips with his mouth and kissing softly against them.]
Do you want to try some of my blood? Or would that...are you not ready for that?
no subject
...Not yet. As much as I crave you, I don't want to think about the smell of blood right now. But thank you.

[His kisses trail gradually lower, down Adrian's fingers and into the crease of his palm, always gentle, always sweet.]
I'm not going anywhere. I'll still be here when you think you can handle it.

[He sighs quietly, notably relaxing further with the affection.]
Thank you for being so patient with me, Jojo. I am incredibly fortunate to have you.
no subject
[Gently, he takes Adrian's hand in his fingers and moves it to rest against his side, turning his attention and his kisses both to Adrian's forehead.]
How about you try to get some sleep. And...I'll sing to you a little more.
no subject
Stay with me? As long as you can.
