Blueberry Blast Strikes Again

You looked up at the menu hesitantly. Was it worth it? The name 'Blueberry Blast' was staring back at you in bold vivid cerulean lettering. Might as well try it, right? You didn't even get a sip of it last time. Typically you wouldn't visit places like this, but Vita seemed just as excited to come to the store as Jaya was the first time she showed you the shop.

For a moment you were glad Vita was ordering. It gave you more time to decide if your experience with smoothies last time was enough to deter you from the treat all together. That was until Vita looked the cashier in the eye as he ordered a carrot, orange juice, and tangerine smoothie. The cashier looked over Vita's shoulder at you to make sure the boy was being serious. You facepalmed before nodding. It was an odd quirk of your friend that you had noticed. He only ever ate orange foods, his favorite of which was carrots. He always had them on his person somehow and you never quite understood why.

"Sir... we don't keep carrots in stock here..." The cashier explained awkwardly.

"That's fine." Vita nodded. You knew what was coming next as a bag appeared in Vita's hand. "I brought my own. If you could just mix them in with my smoothie that would be fine." The cashier once again looked at you for some sort of guidance, but all you could do was shake your head and motion for her to go with it. You were planning to leave a generous tip for the trouble.

After making sure Joseph didn't want anything you wound up ordering a Blueberry Blast and paying. Vita tried arguing he'd pay for his own stuff, but you assured him a two-dollar smoothie was something you could handle.

The boardwalk was fairly occupied, given it was a Saturday you weren't all that surprised. You slowly followed behind as Vita excitedly showed Joseph around the various stores and tourist attractions. You were happy to see the two getting along, they both had an eccentric-ness that helped them bond. Vita's eyes held a sense of adventure and affinity for mischief that you noticed in Joseph's, the many years on Joseph had dulled the shine, but it was there. You could only assume the kind of trouble the man got up to in his younger days.

Eventually the three of you had to stop and rest in a shaded area. Joseph, despite his excitement to explore, was getting tired in the hot sun, and you could tell. After making sure he was all settled, you pulled Vita aside and lightly scolded him for not minding his pace when showing a very old man around on such a hot day. The boy was about to apologize when his watch started beeping.

"Oh no! I have to go!" He yelled, looking panicked. "I completely forgot to feed Harvey and Rodger before coming to meet you here this morning!" Before you could do or say anything else, Vita dramatically threw his smoothie over his shoulder and dashed away. Joseph looked over at you confused.

"Harvey and Rodger?"

"Better not to ask." You sighed, watching the boy's retreating form and taking a sip from your own smoothie. With no better option, you took a seat next to Mr. Joestar on the bench.

"Lovely weather we're having." He commented awkwardly.

"Yep." You responded absentmindedly. It was quiet for a moment before you got up the courage to say what was on your mind. "I overheard you and Jotaro talking about me the other day..." You admitted. "I didn't hear much, and I don't entirely know what it was about, but I can't help but feel like Jotaro is mad at me?"

"Jotaro.... he'll come around." Joseph sighed, leaning back on the bench to look up at the clear blue sky. "Don't worry about all that. When the time comes, I'm sure Jotaro will tell you. With everything going on, now definitely isn't the right time." You were confused by the old man's words but stayed silent and let him continue. "Maybe my grandson doesn't, but I trust you Y/n. I can put in a good word for you." The man perked up as he shifted through the pockets of his jacket. "Speaking of, I have a little something I was hoping you could help me with."

"Oh?" You looked at Joseph curiously. He eventually took out a key ring.

"I have a few things that have been sitting in a storage room at the Speedwagon foundation research center not too far from here." Joseph handed you the key ring, which you hesitantly accepted. "Whenever it's convenient, I'd appreciate you going there. I'm an old man and just can't sort through all that stuff. There's a box in the storage room labeled 1989, it should have a photo with me and Jotaro and a few other people. I've been wanting to find it for some time now, but haven't had any luck. Would you mind?"

"Not at all." You assured the man before placing the keys in your pocket. It wasn't that odd of a request, so you accepted it gladly. Just as you were about to continue with your smoothie a group of teens ran by, one of which knocked the Styrofoam cup from your hand. "Hey!" You yelled as you felt the juice splash into your shirt. "Stupid kids." You mumbled. "Could you wait here for a second?" You asked, looking over at Joseph. "I need to clean this crap off."

"I don't mind. Take your time." The man said before gazing out at the scenery by his little bench.

"Thanks." You sighed before heading to the nearest bathroom. As you walked off, you failed to notice a shadow slithering underfoot towards Joseph's bench. Whether it was luck or fate, you managed not to step on it.

You angrily murmured to yourself unintelligible curses about how you were never going to subject yourself to Blueberry Blast ever again while you wiped your shirt with a wet paper towel. After getting most of the juice off, your shirt still had a massive blue stain on it, but there wasn't much to be done. You murmured a few more curses to yourself about careless kids before heading back outside towards Mr. Joestar.

..................

"Anyways, sorry about that Mr-"You stopped mid-sentence as you gazed at the empty bench in front of you. "...Joestar?" You quickly looked around through the surrounding groups of people, but had no luck finding your missing charge. "Crap."

Jotaro was going to kill you.
