[ He’s already making it pretty damn bizarre anyway lbr ]
The drawers, you say? [ That piques his interest as his gaze zeroes in on them—look, the more you tell him no the more he’ll want to do the thing anyway. Sorry, Vietnam…
Still, he can afford to be…sneaky about it. By getting riiiiight into her personal space. ]
If I were hiding something interesting and wanted to show it to the strapping young visitor I’ve got in my bedroom, then maybe I should be bringing it out myself, hmm?
[ Maybe she’ll get the innuendo this time?? Maybe???? ]
That’s…! [ Bullshit, he wants to say, but thankfully doesn’t. Is she…playing with him, maybe? It’s a possibility, although she does look for all the world like she genuinely doesn’t know.
With a huff, he straightens himself, leaving her some room to breathe for now, as he ponders how he’s gonna break it to her gently, and in a way that may not earn him a well-deserved slap to the face.
Maybe she is just playing hard to get… ]
You know, stuff like those… [ Think of a good euphemism or something dammit Joseph Joestar— ] …Like those horns! Yes! You know, stuff that makes a really…bold statement.
[ He has to think about this for a moment, before continuing: ] Like, really bold! So bold and scandalous that you wouldn’t show it to anyone else!!
He's getting really animated about this as well? What exactly is she missing?! Did he want to see...
...wait.
But she shows everything this?
She reaches towards one of her closets. Normally, she wouldn't put this here, but considering that it's a Bold Statement and scandalous in that she would probably not wear it again...]
But I thought I had you all figured out!! [ NO??? And look, it’s not a huge boner just yet and who even cares anymore SOMEONE PLEASE PUT THEM OUT OF THEIR MISERY… ]
[ …Is he still alive? Has she decided to spare him after all??? ]
Ha! [ That was an oddly triumphant-sounding ha, for a guy who knows fuckall what he’s doing. Apparently throwing shit to the wall and seeing what sticks can only get him so far. ]
Neither am I! [ Just shoot him. ] We’ve got that much in common!
[ NOTE TO SELF TO FEED HER LOTS FROM NOW ON…if she’ll even let him in here after this… ]
That’s…precisely it! [ He’ll even gesture dramatically at it—hopefully that’ll distract her for a bit while he tries to bullshit his way out of this one. ]
It’s a challenge! [ Um??? ] You—You look like the kind of girl who likes a good challenge, don’t you? That robot you’re hiding gave you away!!!
[ LOOK THIS IS THE BEST EXPLANATION HE’S GOT RIGHT NOW ]

Also why is he going up to her when he should be looking for things?
OH, that is why. Because he wants her to take it out and show him! Well, that's not a problem at all, she's just--]
I-I'm not sure what you find interesting, I must confess...
[THAT'S WHY. Also this means she didn't get it.]

This...?

MAYBE THAT’S THE REAL REASON HE’S ATTRACTED TO HER????But Joseph congratulates himself as she makes a beeline for the closet, outright leering as she opens the door, and… ]

For…For… [ Holding his hands up and backing away now please don’t kill him— ] Look, can’t we just talk about this?
[ DON'T GO LISA LISA ON HIM PLS ]
no subject
W-what are we talking about?
[She'll let him talk before she BEATS HIM UP but he better make it a good one.]
no subject
Like…for example, uh… [ Thinking quickly, he babbles— ] …Like robots! Robots are awesome, yeah…
[ He has no idea who TOPIO is, tbh and his mind is drawing a blank as to how to continue already… ]
no subject
R-robots are awesome.
[ . . . ]
I'm not very good at building them, however.
[That's a science that's beyond her, leave it to America and the humans.]

Ah, well, I do like a challenge, you are right... [AT LEAST HE GUESSED SOMETHING CORRECTLY.] But the robot is a gift!
[oh.]
no subject
And, uh, ha—I was trying to figure out what to get you all along! But you sly vixen, clearly you were onto me from the very beginning!
no subject
...A-ah, I suppose I was onto you! [ABOUT WHAT.] S-so...have you figured out what to get me?
no subject
I—I mean, let it be a surprise, baby. Anyway, the gift can come after we’ve known each other a little better, right?
[ Nailed it. ]
no subject
GUESS THAT WORKED.]
How should we get to know each other better then? Should I take you out?
[...Unintentionally asking Joseph out on a date? SURE DID.]
