Honestly it's less about the power and more about making sure he doesn't accidentally kill/maim anyone.

Social is all well and good but we have we have what amounts to a bomb strapped to our soul and we still have yet to bother turning off the timer. We really need to get on this before it does something we will regret, uncontrolled stands ain't nothing to fuck with.

I agree with you there, even if I like the idea of checking on our friends. Jotaro is the kind of guy who really cares on the inside. But yeah, "a bomb strapped to our soul" is exactly what I'd call [Star Platinum] at this point.

Honestly it's less about the power and more about making sure he doesn't accidentally kill/maim anyone.

Yeah, I think everyone got the idea here. We have an uncontrolable, time-stopping punching machine that could at any second fuck someone up without Jotaro intending to harm anyone. Control is truely the key in this vote, even if I'm starting to think about switching sides to the social votes.

Okay, right now it's between 14/15 votes for Stand Meditation, 7 votes for the social and 3 votes for Hamon training.

Let's see if the balance will shift in another direction.

Shit's gonna go down.
Now is not the time for meditation, it's time to be there to interfere when that murderous fox bastard starts moving.

You're right, but we can't really fight him if Star Platinum is gonna interfere with our Hamon. Maybe it might stop time to defend us or just burst out for an ORAORA!, but right now we need to control our powers and then we go kill that fucking fox to death.

Still at work, so y'all have at least another seven hours before I'm good to lock it.

-[]Moka. You recall how devastated she was over the Triangle drama, and the last few times you've seen Tsukune he doesn't seem to have puncture wounds on his neck as often as you'd expect. Has she been taking proper care of herself?
It says something about our friends that the squishy one having more blood and fewer stab wounds than normal is cause for concern.
 
Update 162 - Calm before the Storm, part 1
As much as you'd like to confirm for yourself that your Newspaper friends are okay, the fact of the matter is that your Stand still acts out on its own now and then, and you need to make a priority of getting that under control.
That was not how you'd intended to discover the feeling of Mizore's.... forget it, all that's important is she took it well.
Even if someone really annoys the hell out of you and you get the urge to punch them in the face, you don't need your Stand to go and actually punch them without your meaning to.
If you didn't know better, you'd almost think she took it suspiciously well, as if pleased to take it as proof that you were interested.
Who knows how many problems that could lead to?
That's ridiculous, of course. The depths of your feelings are as plain as your face, after all.
The bottom line is this: the current situation is untenable, and you refuse to let it continue as it has been.
Good fucking grief, that was humiliating....
For a good week or so, you manage not to have to deal with any more social or personal crises. Classes are easy... homework is simple and straightforward... Moka and Kurumu seem to be able to fend off their own unwanted admirers without having to trouble you for it...
In the far distance, you can just barely hear what sounds like a command for someone to "KNOW YOUR PLACE!"
It is, truly, a golden opportunity for you to double down and focus all of your spare time on Stand meditation.
Gravity pulled unnecessary distractions away from you, granting a much greater degree of success!
Come Sunday morning, you're confident you've got the hang of it.

Or at least, good enough for everyday life, since you spent several minutes thinking of random knick knacks for your Stand to go and poach from around the campus, and you were able to suppress Star Platinum well enough that it never attempted to emerge and fetch anything.

Just as you finish mentally patting yourself on the back for your success, you hear a knocking on your door.

If it's the SPC, then part of you wants to answer the door with a strong right hook.... but you know better. Glancing through the peephole, you see....

[]Kazama, from Mechanics Club. From his grim expression, there must be a problem...
[]Professor Nekonome? What the hell could she want? Something's got her anxious....
