All JoJos put together!

Jonathan Joestar: Head of the Joestar progenitor pod, considered one of the largest mermen in history at a whopping 62 feet in length. His pod extends over several different oceans and includes the Stardust, Green Dolphin, Morioh and Passione sub-pods — he frequently makes trips between each of these sub-pods, generally to visit the other members of his bloodline and coddle their hatchlings. Furthermore, because Jonathan has a unique mix of Caretaker and Protector instincts, he also finds himself tailing ships and swimming around other aquatic vessels in an effort to defend or help them in their endeavors.

Joseph Joestar: As Jonathan’s grandson and the 3rd largest of his kin (54 feet), technically Joseph is lined up to take over the main Joestar bloodline once Jonathan gets too old/passes away — he has no intentions of doing this. He split off from the main Joestar pod once he became mature, and created a smaller pod with a man (mer) named Caesar for a spell. Ceasar helped Joseph in his battle against 4, nearly ancient Leviathan mers, resulting in severely broken ribs and collarbone for Ceasar while Joseph went missing for several months. When he turned back up, he was missing his right arm from the elbow down and swimming in a slightly tilted gait. After that, he co-created another pod with his own grandson, the Stardust Crusaders, and followed them around until he heard about his half Siren son at which point he joined the Morioh pod for a bit and picked up a little fry with a unique “glass flesh” mutation that he went on to name Shizuka.

Jotaro Kujo: Unique among mers for the fact that he has a color changing mutation, and he’s partially immune to Coaxing Siren Songs — they’re unsure as to exactly what caused this, but they’ve speculated that it’s a recessive gene from Holly. He’s INCREDIBLY dense with muscle and about the same size as Joseph. Travelled from Japan’s coasts to Africa’s in search for a cure for his mother’s sudden illness, eventually surrendering her to a facility in Egypt. For the month and a half that they were staying there, they were repeatedly under siege by followers (not pod, followers) of Dio, eventually resulting in a battle that left Avdol a double arm amputee, Kakyoin partially blind in both eyes, and Polnareff missing fins on his left side. In the years following, Jotaro stayed with the Stardust Crusaders off the coasts of Japan, taking care of his less able bodied podmates — he has Jolyne at some point, but both Jotaro and Joseph have to temporarily separate from them to check out Josuke in Morioh and deal with the serial murders of merfolk in vicinity. A few years later, he checks in on Giorno at Jonathan’s request along with Polnareff — Pol stays behind to help integrate Giorno with the Speedwagon Foundation and get the rest of Giorno’s new pod under control. Years later with the remaining Crusaders (and the addition of Shizuka) Jotaro helps Jolyne and her mother finish up agreements with the Green Dolphin Rehabilitation Center, the Crusaders deciding to settle down in a territory just outside of where Jolyne settles.

in the aquarium au Mer Joseph likes to leave his tank and crawl around and eventually stumbles upon the souvenir clothes gift shop. cue the tequila dress much to Mer Jonathan's bewilderment and caretaker Caesar's frustration

Suddenly, one day big red lipstick kisses appear all over Joseph's tank. They are on the side visitors and staff normally see, so everyone kinda assumes at first that it must be some kind of fan Joseph has among the visitors of that day. No one really pays it much mind so when the time to clean the outer parts of the tanks come, the cleaning staff realizes the kiss marks are not outside, but inside the tank.

Turns out, earlier that day, Caesar was tasked with helping visitors around the aquarium along with Jonathan and, when they got to Joseph's tank, guess who came out to say hi to Caesar, wearing his brand new dress and cherry red lipstick?

Caesar's face was redder than the lipstick marks, that's for sure.

josevdol, but merman x pirate AU

[edgy-fish-boy]

@nibwhipdragon i tried remaking it with my usual drawing app

No like genuinely this image is so good. The silhouette in the foreground, lighting in the background, the use of colours here is REALLY good. Joseph being all black with the purple lighting of the tail and the star draws more attention to him compared to the warm colours of the sunset and that, makes him pop out in a way that feels nice and natural. This is so good I'm gonna grind it up in a weed grinder and chuff a dart with it

For mermay: how about merman! Joseph where Y/N finds him on the beach at low tide and when he sees them he freaks out and tries to go NIGERUNDAYOOOO but he's on land and he's just flopping around 😂

Absolutely! That's hilarious, you didn't specify whether you wanted yandere or non-yandere, so I made it ambiguous. Enjoy my beautiful mermay enjoyer (you also can be handsome if you want cutie!)❤️

Beached

Joseph was often told that his attention seeking behavior would cause him trouble one day. His elders often scolded him for causing currents in the city, startling fish, and wandering too close to the surface. He'd always laugh at them and quip back something clever that made them angrier. Now he realized they might have been right.

It was a simple bet really; Cesear and he were swimming around causing mischief when the topic of the surface came up. "I bet they've got some pretty hot babes on the surface. Ones with two tails instead of one." Joseph sighed dreamily, causing Cesear to scoff. "The women of the land can't compete with the women of the sea." Typical Cesear, so close minded. A smirk appeared on Joseph's face as a "brilliant" idea came to mind. "Oh Cesear, I think that I can find someone more beautiful than all the merfolk in the sea just by the beach." Cesear's kelp green eyes narrowed. "Your next words are 'You bastardo Joseph, you've got yourself a deal!'" Cesear fell for Joseph's ploy. "You bastardo Joseph, you've got yourself a deal!" Joseph shit eating grin was met with shock and anger from the other merman. "You smug sea devil, get back here!" Joseph giggled to himself as he swam from his friend.

Things were going good for Joseph no merfolk noticed Joseph and Cesear sneak towards the surface. Cesear still kept his underwater, like the bloody coward he is. No matter all Joseph has got to do is scope out the land for some hot babes! Swimming closer and ducking his head underwater when he thought someone might be coming, he eagerly spied on the beach to find... NO ONE?! What gives? It was a beautiful morning, sun rising steadily into the sky water at low tide. Low tide... "OH NO!"

You had just woken up and stretched a bit, this was a great place to vacation during the summer. Beautiful town, friendly people, and the sea. White sand for miles around and clear blue ocean water. You love the Mediterranean! Donning a swim shirt and swim trunks and covering that with a light beach cover up, you slipped on your sandals. You rode your bike through the small town that was peacefully asleep, it was pretty early in the morning. Perfect time to have the beach all to yourself. You were ready for another day of tanning, relaxing, and summer fun. You hop off your bike and walk over to the beach humming a tune that was stuck in your head. (Fav song) gets better each time you hear it. Your peace was ruined by someone screaming, oh my god is that person okay? Running to the source of the noise you found a handsome man. He had a mop of wild brown hair and eyes the color of sea glass. He was tall, tan, and muscular and had no legs. Instead, there was a beautiful green fish tail. The man Stopped his loud yelling and violently slapping his tail to look at you. The merman precedes to flop even harder.

Joseph was stuck and while he was an intelligent bastard he also was a cocky one. He wasn't paying attention to the tides and now was flopping around like a fish out of water. Well, he was one but that was beside the point. "Cesear, move your big tail and help me!" The man was met with bubbles. Oh, so that's how that is, Cesear was laughing at his misfortunes. Fake friend! Joseph was too busy cursing the blond traitor that he didn't notice a pair of footsteps quickly approaching him. A light gasp caused his head to snap over to the creator of the noise. A person who was (short/medium/tall) and had (h/l) (h/c) hair and (e/c) eyes. They were wearing baggy cloth that hid their curves from his curious gaze. He found a two tail... a hot two tail! Crap a two tail! Joseph begins flopping harder than before he needed to get out of here. He heard the two tail speak in a language he could not understand as it franticly approached him. Hell no!

Wack! the powerful green tail smacked you straight in the gut, throwing you onto some sharp seashells thoroughly knocking the wind out of you. You were trying to help but this merman just gut punched you with his tail. He frantically made clicking and chattering noises to something in the water you could not see. Another merperson? That didn't matter right now, what did was getting the merman back into the ocean before other people came. The merman looked to be made of pure muscle so there was no picking him up and approaching him from behind would get you smacked again. Maybe you could get some water over to where you are. You crept around the merman and threw your hands up in a sign of nonaggression towards the frightened brunet. the ocean was further than you thought and you didn't have a bucket to pour water on him. Frustrated you sank your feet into the wet sand causing water to fill in the hole you made in the sand. Bingo!

Joseph was confused as to why the two tail was digging a hole at this time. Is that what two tails do when stressed? He'd have to ask Speedwagon but right now he continued to observe the two tail and keep them a tail length away. Continuing to watch he saw water slowly filling the hole they made as the dug up to where Joseph would be making some sloppy aqueduct. Who knew two tails could be smart? Joseph met the desperate (e/c) that held no malice towards him. He was good at reading people and knew the land dweller was no danger to him and was even trying to help. Joseph began slowly inching towards them and the small saltwater river they were making, their hands looked tired, but they didn't stop, even as sweat began to form on their brow. Joseph felt his heart began beating faster not out of fear but something else. They didn't have to help them and yet they were trying, more than some merfolk ever did for him.

You heard a squeak and a splash coming from behind you the merman enters the watery area you made for him and was pushing you with him towards the ocean. You both landed with a plop in the warm waters of the Mediterranean, salt stinging your eyes as you had not been prepared to go swimming right now. Surfacing you gasped for air as you searched for the merman, only to see the green merman circling you like a shark. Did you just put yourself in danger? Plop the merman's head surfaced from the water a cheeky grin on his face. Face only centimeters from your own, he looked like he was going to kiss you. You blushed as you found him handsome but wasn't expecting this, squeezing your eyes shut and turning you head away from him. Nothing. You opened your eyes to look at the merman who looked at you with lips puckered and squirted salt water into your face. Gross! The mermaid disappeared before you could even yell at him for not only scaring the crap out of you but getting salt water in your mouth. You couldn't help but laugh though as the merman was very playful and you didn't mind the water. That was until you saw your shoes floating away from you.

Joseph swam down to a smirking blond with a big goofy grin on his face. "Well Joseph, did you see a land babe?" Cesear mocked him but Joseph was in too good of a mood to pout. He was so close to you, he could have kissed you! However, kissing was sacred in mermaid culture only to be done with mates. He blushed at the thought of you being his mate. You could swim with him, he could introduce you to Cesear, and he could show you his home! His giddy thoughts were interrupted by the sour taste that came to his mouth when he thought of introducing you to Cesear or any other merfolk. He didn't want to do that, you were too precious for them. With that decided he planned hen he would meet his own little two leg again with Cesear chasing after him.

Sorry if it sucks, I kinda rushed towards the end because I didn't know if you wanted yandere or not, so this was more fluffy. Please feel free to request more this mermay.

Caejose, but Merman AU.

Fisherman! Caesar: "What in the world is this giant fish in my boat?!..."

Merman! Joseph: "NIGERUNDAYOOOOOO!!!" *frantic flopping around on the deck and getting nowhere*

I actually had a blast doing this one 🥰

[jei-rifni]

a little early for mermay but: merman! Joseph

he's tryna go "NIGERUNDAYO!" but he's on land and he's just flopping around like a Magikarp

He’s trying ok, he’ll figure it out

[zippers-flowers-and-wine]

What would Joseph and Jonathan be like in the mer AU? I imagine Merman Jonathan would either have blue and gold scales as a more "generic" fish mer, or if he's a specific sea creature I imagine whale shark would fit him so well because big gentle giant spotted with starry markings 💙

For Merman Joseph I'm picturing more of a green and yellow tail sort of like his scarf, but the tips of his fins are spiky and purple like his stand Hermit Purple 💜

Ooooooh! Okay, one: I’m SO glad you caught on to what I’m trying to do with the mers by combining their human outfits and their stands in their tails!

I think Jonathan would be MASSIVE! Like, big enough to have a decently sized sailboat ride his wake the same way dolphins ride the wakes of massive oil tankers. I found out that, apparently, Jonathan’s body activated a stand after Dio’s possession of it — called “The Passion”, it was basically a slightly suped up version of Hermit Purple. With that being said, Jonathan’s main mer-body would probably be a dark black-blue at the main body with brilliant golden lines and silver speckles down the central part of his sides — his fins are long and tendril-like, and electric purple, his sail is VERY tall and he has a split fluke like Ariel from The Little Mermaid. He’s able to emit brief electric pulses, though if he takes deep breaths and really focuses, he can emit a much, MUCH larger electric current.

All Joestars (except for Giorno) have split fins.

Joseph isn’t quite as big as Jonathan — Jotaro is actually just a small bit bigger than Jonathan, but only via muscle mass — but he is fairly big. Main colour is dark green, with bright yellow striation, speckled through with lighter green and yellow spattered throughout. His fins are also tendriled like Jonathan’s, though, unlike Jonathan, Joseph has short electric purple spines hidden within his bright yellow fins. His tail only has pelvic fins, his sail and his fluke in terms of fins (most mers have other fins on their arms, human spine and even anal fins).

I’ll draw this at some point, art block be willing.

merman joseph losing his hand like in canon except here jonathan and speedwagon are around to help care for him while he recovers at the aquarium

I went digging through all my pending asks and found the ask I just mentioned earlier! I knew I wasn't imagining things, and also sorry for the insane wait anon!! I'm slowly getting to the bunch of months old asks I still have piled in my inbox!

All that aside, and also as mentioned in the other ask about this topic, YES!!! I really like the idea of Joseph losing his hand as a result of saving others. The idea of his dads taking care of him and nursing him back to health is just so good!

Jonathan and Speedwagon would definitely be the doting dads. The "don't move a single finger, please, you're in recovery" type, basically. They would definitely not go move an inch away from their "little Jo" if they could help it, but then again, the aquarium and all the sea life living there depends on them for the biggest part. When their duties with the aquarium make it impossible for them to stay, Suzi gladly comes in to help!

I don't think she's been mentioned in the AU yet, but I think it would be nice if she was around too. In this case, helping Joseph and cheering him up and looking after him when his dads are unable to. Also, lets not forget that Caesar is around in this AU as well, so he probably takes care of Joseph too at times (begrudgingly, because for some reason -aka Joseph being a little shit- Jojo seems to get all whiny whenever he's around lol).

[ghosttrea-archived]

omg your caejose mermay comic 🥺❤ and cae is sooo BIG 🥺 imagine the opposite tho, what if cae was a human and joseph was a very smol merman 😂

I can't help but think that a small merman!joseph would be a menace to the local fishermen.

Also I'm so so sorry for not responding for so long 🙇 I'm not sure if a disgruntled fisher!Caesar was what you were looking for but I hope you enjoy this anon

[edgy-fish-boy]
