Josuke was sleeping like a rock, until someone poked him in the face. "Wake up! wake up!" It was Jolyne. "Someone is here for you! Wake up!"

Josuke slowly opened his eyes, to see a slender but tall figure next to Jolyne.

"Uhh.."

"HOLY CRAP JOLYNE LOOK OUT-" He screeched, calling out Crazy Diamond at the same time and launching it's knuckles into the silhouette's face.

"Josuke!!" An alarmed whisper came from the man. "It's Rohan.." he rubbed his cheek. "This is why I didn't want to come." He muttered to the side.

Jolyne was staring at the man in horror, looking at the bruise that was forming. "Why is it black and blue? Should I get Daddy?" She said, a small frown on her face.

"Oh don't worry, your uncle has a trick up his sleeves!" He winked at her, secretly wanting to get revenge on Rohan for scaring him like that.

"I just have to punch him again right in the same spot, and he'll be aaaaaall better." He announced proudly. "Oh and it only works if I do it."

Rohan squinted at him, then flinched "WoAH woah Josuke I'm supposed to tell y—" but he didn't get to say much due to his face being pummeled in by Crazy Diamond again.

Josuke started chuckling as Rohan angrily shot up, the bruise completely gone. "I just LOVE how I'm actually trying to help you." He pouted. "I could just leave, you know!"

Jolyne was giggling, almost rolling over in fact. "Is Jotaro-San awake?" Josuke asked Rohan, who was still rubbing his face.

"No, I snuck in here and this weird little girl just happened to be awake." He said, looking down at Jolyne.

Josuke nodded, assuming Jotaro was a deep sleeper. "So.. cut to the chase already." Josuke crossed his arms. "Why are you even here?"

Rohan's stand, Heaven's Door, appeared as he was speaking. "I'm going to write your memories back in." He said

"Koichi asked me if I could lend him a hand just this once, and I can't just let my fans down." He explained, as his stand raised its right arm, ready to crack open his face.

"Well, not in front of Jolyne okay?" Josuke said, nodding to the girl, who was now looking at them, confused.

"Fine, but make it quick, because I need to finish drawing a few panels for my manga."

Josuke rolled his eyes, earning yet another dirty look from Rohan. He turned to Jolyne and crouched down. "Me and this guy, his name is poopoo head, we are gonna do some adult stuff, okay?" He said quietly.

"Aww.. daddy says that all the time.. I can stay though I promise I won't annoy you!" She begged, her eyes wide with hope.

He flinched, not wanting to tell a little girl no, but he sighed. "If you go to bed I'll.. uhh.. take you out tomorrow, wherever you want. After school of course" he added quickly.

"Really?" She started jumping up and down.

"Yea! But you have to go to bed now." Josuke said in his best Jotaro impression.

"Okay! Good night uncle! Good night poopoo head!" She waved and ran/tip toed into Jotaro's room.

Rohan opened his mouth, as if he were going to yell at Josuke, but then he shook his head and sighed. "Okay, lets get to work."

Josuke gulped nervously, hoping Rohan wouldn't see anything too personal.

~***~

Rohan walked over to Josuke as he watched his face open into a book. "Well, I know I shouldn't really read into him but.." Rohan turned over one of the pages, and his blood ran cold.

The pages were blank, completely blank. He gulped, and took out his pen. "I'll write 'remember everything forgotten' or something like that." He said aloud, writing it down.

He called back his Stand and decided to leave while Josuke was unconscious. "Hopefully his Nephew won't find it weird he's sleeping on the floor next to his futon.

As Rohan opened the door, he heard shuffling from inside the room the little girl had gone into, and to his surprise, it was Jotaro. The taller man was looking at Rohan, with an expression of pure confusion.

"Look.. I can explain." He said unenthusiastically, not wanting to explain why he was there again.

~***~

Josuke woke up, feeling a little strange. Jotaro was making breakfast to his surprise, and Jolyne was nowhere to be found, presumably asleep. "Um.. Jotaro-San." He said in a loud but somehow hushed tone.

Jotaro looked at him, squinted, then looked back at his workspace. "Do you feel weird at all?" He said coldly.

"I do? Well I actually remember some stuff." He gulped, not really understanding why or what had happened to cause him to remember.

"Well..?" Jotaro said, in a tone that said 'just spit it out already!'

"I remember stuff about Okuyasu, and him going to spend the night a couple days ago." He said. "I regained a lot of lost memories from whenever we beat Kira to now, but nothing from the day I messed up my head."

"Weird." Jotaro said, sounding more focused on the food now.

"Well, you missed school, you were unconscious all day, that thing Rohan did to you took awhile."

'Oh yea.. Rohan helped me with this.' He thought, 'I guess I'll have to go say thanks sometime.'

"Anyways, maybe you'll remember tomorrow. Your mother is coming back soon so tomorrow is your last day with me." He informed him.

"Wait, if I missed school, then why are you making breakfast, and why is Jolyne asleep?" He asked, seriously confused.

Jotaro rolled his eyes. "First of all, it's her bed time, and second of all I can make breakfast whenever I want." He muttered, giving Josuke a plate

"I am 29 now you know."

"Haha.. oh yea.." he trailed off, now remembering why he was so nervous.

'Crap! Now I have to ask around to find out why I slipped.. I do remember having Okuyasu over.. and that damned comic book he kept asking about..'

His mind stopped for a second. "The comic book!" He howled, feeling overcome with confidence. "Maybe if I look at it I'll remember!"

He couldn't sputter much else out before he was swiftly cut off by Jotaro shushing him. "Ah.. sorry.." he said.

"By the way" Jotaro said one last thing before Josuke prepared for bed again. "Please don't do 'Adult Stuff' while I'm asleep, it really gives off red flags."

Josuke was confused, but then understood, as Jolyne probably had gone to bed and Jotaro was awake from all the ruckus. "Ah.. okay Jotako-San.. sorry." He said, red-faced.

That night went by quickly, and Josuke fell deep asleep, once again.

'Tomorrow is the day I find out what happened, even if it's small it's worth something.. right?'

He thought before a crashing wave of black washed over him, and he was out cold

So this took me forever, and it a little short, but I have a reason! I've been doing art commissions and I've been sick! Plus writers block 😭 I can never get a break from this stuff...
