Pathways (Dio AUs)

Pathway 2 : Turned Tables

Pathway Scenario:  Instead of placing the mask on himself or Jojo, Dio mistakenly has placed the mask on you and now must face the consequences of what he has created.

      You were a nurse brought into the manor to take care Mister Joestar as his illness had not gotten better.

      The work was very light and felt more as if you were taking care of a child. Most of it was making him soup and being there for him in the middle of the night when he woke up in pain.

      The work was a bit out of your field as you were a midwife but most of your in the manor consisted of natural remedies. Same as a midwife. You cultivated the herbs and made the medicines. You even made your home in the manor.

      It was already five o clock and the sun would soon set. Now was the time to bring up soup as well as tea to the master of the home. Of course all the ingredients from the garden all your own.

      As you walked up the stairs you were met with another one of the masters of the home.

      "Let me talk that tray up for you.", Master Dio offered you. You politely shook your head at the offer.

      "I must go up myself in case Master Joestar requires anything else and as well make sure he at least drinks all the tea if not the soup. Thank you however Master Dio.", you continued your accession up the stairs. You heard footsteps following.

      "You realize you may simply call me Mister Dio or just Dio. You're about my age plus with a rank in medicine you're not less than me.", he said walking beside you.

     You laughed at his attempt of being laid back. "I still am meant to be of service. I am employed under you."

      "Well if that's the case...", there was a pause as Dio thought of what to say next. "I require you make me soup as I too feel quite ill.", he finished. You turned to him to be met with a smug look upon his face.

      "Please list me your symptoms.", you stated.

      "I am light headed and quite a bit nauseous.", Dio crossed his arms as if he had in some way outsmarted you.

      "You appear dehydrated. You need water not soup. Go drink water and lie down.", you dismissed him as you reached the room door.

      "Please nurse y/n, I truly believe I am dying.", Dio looked at you with begging eyes. All you could do was give a little chuckle and roll your eyes.

      "Well aren't you impassioned over soup. I'll be down in an hour. Wait for me in the kitchen then.", you gave in.

      "Thank you for caring.", Dio said with a self-satisfied look. You scoffed at his "gratitude" despite him opening the room door for you.

      You walked in and gave Master Joestar his meal and tidied up his living area.

      "Oh Miss Y/n you do not need to clean. That is not your job. Just sit down and relax as I enjoy the meal you made for me.", he said with a wave of his hand as to dismiss your cleaning.

      "I'm aware Master Joestar, I just wish to make you as comfortable as possible.", you gave a smile as you continued folding up a blanket.

      "You are such a kind soul. I shall miss you when I am no longer ill.", Master Joestar smiled back and went back to eating his soup.

      After he finished it up he soon fell asleep and you were able to get the dishes and head back downstairs to wash them.

      The second you turned into the kitchen Dio had already been in there waiting for you.
