Jotaro went and sat where he had been before next to Polnareff. You could see him staring at Kakyoin… maybe he was thinking about what you said after all? Or maybe he was thinking the same thing as Polnareff…

You sat on a rock between Kakyoin and Joseph. You couldn't help but look over at Kakyoin as well… he looked so distressed right now… What was he thinking about? You didn't want to consider it… but what if he really was losing it?

Out of the corner of your eye, you saw Polnareff lean over, talking to Jotaro about something…. Were they talking about Kakyoin again…?

Kakyoin put his face in his hands, just staying there like that.

Even if he would just tell you what was wrong… you could at least try to help… the fact that he wasn't saying anything at all was the worst part…

Joseph had been mixing something at the fire for a while now, and you saw Polnareff leave Jotaro’s side to go talk to him instead.

“That smells great! What are you making?” asked Polnareff, looking down at the pot.

“Baby food.” Said Joseph, lifting it up so Polnareff could get a better look at it.

It had your interest piqued as well, you came over to get a better look, “baby food? You’re making it yourself?” you asked, brows raised, “That’s pretty impressive.”

“It’s milk, egg yolks, bananas, and bread all stewed together.” Joseph said, “I used to make all of Holly’s food when she was a baby. And when Jotaro was born, I taught Holly all the best recipes.”

“That’s amazing.” you said. Joseph didn't seem like the type to take an interest in baby stuff, but perhaps he was! He seemed like he was the kind of father who would spoil his children.

“Mh… Polnareff, want a taste?” Joseph offered, holding out the spoon for him.

Polnareff seemed unsure, but after a moment or so, he opened his mouth for it, and Joseph fed him the bite of food. He tasted it for a few seconds before his eyes widened, “It’s good!”

“Huh? Seriously?” you asked, leaning in. “Is it really that good? Let me try some!”

Joseph turned, feeding you a spoonful of the mash as well. It was good! It was mellow and sweet! “It’s really good, Joseph!” you said, “Make some for me next time!” you joked.

Polnareff took the spoon from Joseph, sneaking another bite before Joseph could protest, “Make me some too!”

“Hey now! There won’t be any left for the baby.” Joseph said, grabbing the spoon back from him before Polnareff could eat any more.

“Come on, just one more bite!” Polnareff begged, reaching for the spoon again.

“Fine fine… use your own spoon.” Joseph said, holding out the bowl so Polnareff could get another spoonful, “But that’s all you get!”

From behind you, Kakyoin yelled, “Mr. Joestar, Polnareff, (Y/N), did you see that?”

The three of you looked over, and your brow furrowed. “Huh? See what?”

“That baby isn’t normal after all! He just killed a scorpion!” Kakyoin yelled, pointing his finger at the baby, “In the blink of an eye! He stabbed it with a safety pin!”

So… The baby was a stand user then? It wouldn't be the craziest thing you’d encountered yet. You believed him.

From the corner of your eye, you saw Jotaro look up.

Joseph and Polnareff looked at each other before Joseph spoke up, “Kakyoin, hold on, what are you talking about?”

“That is not a normal baby!” said Kakyoin, looking over at the baby, “He’s not even a year old, but knew what a scorpion was? And he killed it with those tiny hands!”
