[The explanation doesn't make sense, and if there's one thing Johnny has learned on his journey, it's that sometimes you just don't question the how you just question what it means to the here and now. Somehow, he'd seen one of Kakyoin's memories. Something that had already happened. Either Avdol Urmed had gotten himself back home in a hurry after his camel hit that cactus patch, or time was seriously out of sync.]
Yeah?
[Whatever it was, it seems to have pained the young man and Johnny studies him for a moment, mulling the thoughts over in his mind. The Avdol in Kakyoin's memory couldn't have been that much older than when he'd seen him in the race though. A relative maybe? Brother? How common was that name in his home country? Johnny hadn't a clue.]
I think we got some things to settle up. There something you haven't told me? Cuz that sure as hell looked like Avdol and I know he got injured pretty good in the race, but he was still alive last I saw him. And there's no way he'd get all the way back home in a couple a' weeks by boat.
So I figure- you're from a different time, yeah?
[Leon and a few others had been from the future already. Johnny was already starting to fill in the blanks.]
Shit- that's why you know that Joestar, Joseph, right? The one I didn't know. He's from later on, yeah?
[A flicker of excitement lit his features. Was Joseph one of his kids maybe? Unless his father decided to start over, after screwing up two sons, well, who knew? Maybe he was jumping to conclusions, but it that was true...]
Hey, do you know what happens to me? Who wins the race, do you know?
no subject
Yeah?
