wiping off emporio’s tears.....
i’ve been away from tumblr for quite some time. i got caught in my work aaaaaaaaaaaaaand i’d been trying to avoid using social media in hopes of dodging stone ocean’s spoilers for the last batch (though i’ve already finished reading the manga last year).
but what can i say? i feel so bad for emporio because he’s still have the memories from the original universe while his friends don’t. imagine the trauma of living the life with your friends (or other people) who have no idea who you are and the recollection of your friendship are gone with the wind.....
yes i cried....i did.....for real. and look!!!!! i even tried wiping off emporio’s tears on the screen even if it’s laughably impossible. at least i tried, okay?
but something reminded me a few hours after i finished the last batch. i have a cousin who used to work in orlando, florida (the setting where the events of stone ocean took place). she gave me 2 mugs from starbucks several years ago as souvenirs from her trip.
and guess what?
both of the items have motifs from the series. a dolphin.......and a rocket......and palm trees too.............the recurring pieces that make up the whole picture that is stone ocean. it’s freaking crazy because i have these for several years.
it felt like araki knew what was up with me. it’s as if he knew that years from then i’ll be a hardcore jojo fan even if i wasn’t aware of the series’ existence back then.
my workmate even joked that everything was meant to be, that i’m just a late-bloomer stand user. that i’ll be watching the series years later.
it’s a shame though the mugs are just kept in a dusty corner. i’ll be cleaning them and then repurpose them as display pieces along with the jolyne and jotaro plushies i’ll be planning to buy soon.
until then........back to crying TT_____TT
