Hi. I Offer Something That Can Actually Be Replied To If So Inclined. - Tumblr Posts

While judgement was the furthest thing from Kakyoin's mind in a situation like this, he'd be lying if he said it wasn't a little bit unnerving to see Jotaro in such a way. It felt somewhat out of place in the dim quiet; all the moreso given the man in question, and how unusual it was. Just the same, he was duly empathetic, given all that he knew the other had endured. As the saying went, there but for the grace of God go I.

He'd never quite been able to stomach leaving people at the mercy of their nightmares, but waking Jotaro was somewhat of a delicate matter. It wasn't that he didn't trust him— on the contrary, he trusted the man to do precisely what his nature dictated, and if by any chance, that hazy realm between dream and wakefulness told him for even a moment that Kakyoin was an enemy...

But his trepidation swiftly evaporated once his companion startled awake, and he had to shove the pangs of concern deeper down inside his chest. If it were him, anyhow, he wouldn't take kindly to feeling as though he were pitied, regardless of how far from the truth he knew it to be. He politely lowered his gaze as Jotaro collected himself, considering checking the time for a brief moment.

He decided he'd rather not know.

Kakyoin shook his head at Jotaro's question. ❝No, you didn't. I was already awake,❞ he answered softly. It was only somewhat true, but there was no reason to burden the other with details or complaints. After a moment of consideration towards his wording, he returned a question of his own.

❝I was going to find myself something suitable to drink. Would you like me to bring you something, too..?❞

Despite himself, a slight frown worked its way onto his face. As an excuse to give Jotaro space if desired, as well as to show concern, it should have been a decent enough thing to say. Strategic, certainly, but genuine. He simply wasn't confident in it, unsure of what had so shaken the other in the first place.

GASP!

Jotaro shot straight up being pulled out of his nightmare to the world of the living. Being held within the grasps of a nightmare was normally not an issue, as the Joestar was normally able to shake it off and move on. Breath coming out in heavy pants of air, sweat covering his entire being, trembles rolling throughout - all signs pointing to the fact that this time around had been a little more difficult than the last couple of times. After some few moments his breath had finally calmed as he got a grip on his barrings, Star having been at his side at the ready until both stand and user realized who had been the one to woke the Joestar from his slumber.

Kakyoin.

"Where--" A grimace appeared upon his features briefly at how..weak his voice had sounded, a hand raised to soothe out dark curls for a moment needing to regain some sort of semblance of calm. Fuck. How long had he been keeping the redhead up? A shaky breath was taken as his focus returned to his companion, "Did I wake you?"
