Miguel looks at Josuke, who grabbed his knees in shame, looking away from the rest of the group.
"Couldn't sleep?" asked Anne, standing up.
Anne sees Josuke. "Oh."
She lays her head on Josuke's shoulder.
"You shouldn't have been so hard on him," said Anne. "You know how it feels like to get blamed harshly."
Miguel and Anne stare at a depressed Josuke who is turned away from the group, who are all asleep.
"Well... He needs this," said Miguel. "He needs to realize that he isn't alone in this world."
"Well... you of all people know how it feels like to be... alone... and... let's say... different," said Anne.
"I know," said Miguel.
Anne realizes something as she stands right back up.
"Why didn't you use Gold Experience Requiem?" asked Anne, realizing what he might have done. "When you were gonna disable Stefan's Stand... You were using the device instead..."
Miguel stayed silent.
"You didn't use Requiem to disable Stefan..." said Anne. "Because that's what you gave the Ark of the Covenant in exchange for your Soft and Wet, didn't you?"
Miguel holds his knees as well and covers his lower face.
"I blame myself, Anne. I blamed it on the kid... But in the end... I did this, Anne. I did all of this. And for what? To beat Eradicator? I did this to myself and ended up hurting Josuke and Gumball. I could've used my Stand on Stefan... But I didn't. Now, the nation hates me and they all see Stefan as some sort of god. I did this... When I started this, I wanted to be a symbol. I have a 10-year-term, Anne, and here I am acting like a complete jackass... I could've given anything else... I just had to give Gold Experience Requiem... Such a fucking dumbass... Hay Naku..."
Anne holds Miguel's hand.
"We'll get through this like how we got into this whole mess that is our lives in the first place. Together."
Miguel gives Anne a teary smile and Anne smiled sweetly.
*glitch*
Spongebob, Patrick, and Darwin are teleported inside.
Darwin growls and walks on all fours.
"We don't have Stands here, Darwin," said Anne.
"Ah..." said Darwin, sitting back down and blushing.
Darwin sees that Josuke is not talking.
Darwin steps forward and sat beside Josuke.
"Yo," said Darwin.
Josuke stayed silent.
"You okay?" smiled Darwin.
Josuke still kept silent.
"JoJo?" asked Darwin once more.
"I wanna stay silent," said Josuke.
"Can I stay silent with you?" asked Darwin.
"If you can," said Josuke.
Darwin smiles optimistically and sat with him.
Josuke sighs.
"Alright fine... I'll tell you," said Josuke.
"But I didn't-..."
"I don't have a Stand... anymore..."
