Jotaro Kujo is content - he has a loving family and a peaceful in life in America, studying his passion. After the development of his schizophrenia, Noriaki Kakyoin could no longer say the same. A chance meeting and an art project will force both men to look inside themselves and consider what other people mean to them. --- "Loneliness sometimes gives me a quantity of creativeness - you're drinking another glass of wine and you're feeling even worse. Art doesn't work without pain; art also exists for compensating pain." - Till Lindemann --- A rewrite and near complete overhaul of my fic by the same name, originally written in late 2019-early 2020. I was not happy with it and left out major points in my AU that I wanted to include.

Over the course of their adventure, Jotaro Kujo has fallen in love with Noriaki Kakyoin. It's the most he's ever cared for anyone. It's the first time someone has gotten past the cold exterior Jotaro built around his heart. Kakyoin, too, has fallen for Jotaro-but he's too afraid to let in this other man. There's too much that keeps him afraid of being hurt. Nobody else has accepted him as a man before, and he's always been just a useful tool at best. Why would he expect any better from Jotaro? Despite how much the two care for each other, the distance between them only seems to be increasing. They must learn to open up to each other, even if it means being vulnerable.

He can't help but think Kakyoin is hiding something.

Jotaro looks up. The sea is flat, the tide low and the waves are weakly splashing onto the shore. He turns around, treading water, staring at the man by the shore. Kakyoin watches as Jotaro bobs with the waves, his gaze soft, but behind his eyes was something akin to fear, dark and gloomy. Jotaro just wanted to take his hand, and drag him in. After all, there really was nothing to be afraid of.
