#should i make this a series where i talk about yandere physiques

[princelylove]

A young Joseph's physique is intended for running, jumping, and pulling heavy objects.

As he matures, he gets a little heavier, and therefore a bit slower. Nothing pisses him off more than thinking of his glory days when he could chase his darling as much as he pleased- literally.

He's a chaser emotionally, sure, but he's better at it physically. It's a bit unfair, Joseph was lazy with his hamon training, but excels in most athletics. He's well rounded, so he could've done a lot with his body back then, but didn't.

He just couldn't be assed to help out most of the time, and why would he? Whatever anybody else is doing has nothing to do with him, why's it his responsibility to help out just 'cause he's more athletically inclined? Jeeeez.

He's gotten a bit more empathetic in his 'old' age- but not by a lot. Joseph's still very obsession-oriented. He'd do anything you wanted. He'll carry your bags, move your sofa up five flights of stairs, run to the other side of the city to buy you something you need right this instant and don't have time to retrieve yourself- anything's fair game. His body's yours! As long as, you know. You give yourself entirely to Joseph and don't complain about how touchy and needy he is.

It's such a shame that time in his life has passed. He's not the young, energetic man he used to be. He gets tired after a few rounds of chase when he could previously do dozens, he groans at the idea of getting up after he's already sat down, he's an old man. An old man that just can't keep his hands off of you, even if you swat him away.

Joseph loves to make himself physically younger with hamon- it's kinda cheating, but it also kinda isn't. He can chase you around without pulling something this way! Hey, come on, it's a joke, he isn't THAT old. He can chase you just fine when he's older! Joseph's just a bit hung up on how easy it was when he was younger when he could just jump over whatever desk you knocked over to get in his way.

Now that he can't just clear whatever poor furniture you decided needed to die, Joseph is forced to use his brain, which is a thousand times less fun for both parties. Joseph doesn't wanna thiiiink, he wants to chase! He wants to catch! He wants to see his darling underneath him on the ground, whining and kicking and screaming and possibly crying- but that's off topic. He doesn't want to have to figure out what to do to get his prey, he wants his darling to get worn out and "admit" they want to stop playing and just cuddle already.

He's always thought of himself as pretty smart, so it kind of drives him up the wall when he can't find his darling. No, he's not using Hermit Purple just yet. It's not fun if he knows exactly where you are from the beginning! It's fun when he gets the satisfaction of finding you allll by himself, when he can pull you out by your ankles and pretend he's going to punish you.... oh, I'm kidding. He's absolutely going to punish you for trying to pull a fast one on him. Hide and seek is only fun when both parties are aware they're playing.

There are circumstances where Joseph will use Hermit Purple from the beginning. He's not stupid, he can tell when you're genuinely trying to escape and aren't just running from him. If you manage to get out of his sight, and Joseph has finally calmed down from the panic of not seeing you right next to him first thing in the morning, all you can really do is pray you look good while you're running.

Joseph's punishments are pretty bad. He's fine with breaking your legs because he can afford any and all medical care you'll need after he snaps them. Most of his punishments are physical and directly hinder your chances of escaping.

With Joseph, if you don't escape the first time you try, any attempts after just become more and more futile.

He's still got morals though. He isn't a spouse-beater. He won't give you a shiner or any visible bruises. He just knows that sometimes, spanking works best. You know, spanking as in breaking something, or actually spanking. If whatever you did isn't that bad, you'll get away with only thirty spanks or so. If you almost got out... pray you get a nice nurse this time, and not Suzi Q wearing a nurse costume.
