Blood Ties
Giorno had saved his business for the council meeting that evening for last. Everything had gone more or less now he’d expected after that.
Chilchuck had questions. While he didn’t raise an objection of any kind, he had spent the rest of the meeting watching Giorno’s face.
Zelda had questions but they were all centered around the technicalities and how she could assist.
Evandor kept it simple, as always. “Giorno has never lead anyone astray.” He said nothing more.
And Juli…she was supportive but he knew she had questions of her own. He offered to walk the scenic route with her back to her room.
“We may not see each other much over the next week.” There was an apology and a lament in there.

While Joseph was undressing, Giorno was preoccupied with filling one of the empty wicker baskets arranged on a shelf to decide on which infused oil he preferred that evening—likely something that would keep him perked up. As much as he craved a tall glass of wine, he had a long night ahead.
When he finished his selection, he set it to the side and turned to prompt Joseph to do the same—but the words quickly left his head when he got a look at him.

Giorno quickly stripped off his own shirt. He touched his own — in the exact same place, the exact same hue darkening the skin, the exact same size relative to Giorno’s smaller frame.

"What?!" Joseph slapped his cheeks in utter shock.

He didn’t look like his father, not even slightly. Even if all he had of him was a photo, his features were etched into his mind. But the visceral familiarity he shared with the person in front of him was beyond denial or doubt.
“Mister Joestar…when were you born?”

"We will have to make up for last time, then!" Joseph clapped a hand on Giorno's shoulder.
