Now THIS is actually 'we'll talk about that later' without trying to give a bullshit reason/hoping she buys it. And it expresses gratitude for her concern without dismissing it.

So anyone that thinks there's merit to putting it off just a bit (though I argue otherwise), should vote for this instead of the 'excuse' vote with a sub-vote.


Bonus for Jotaro patting Aunt Moka on the head being hilarious and cute.

Votes are still open, but know that I am likely to count certain different votes together regardless of whether they include the invisitext segment or not.

I suspect the newspaper drama votes (invisitext or not) are counted together, but the 'just worried about Tsukune' vanilla votes are separate from the ones with the sub-vote. Even though the sub-vote doesn't actually change all that much from the main vote (trying to make excuses/bullshit), it's at least trying to from the view of those that voted for it.

I wouldn't mind 'head pat' winning, to be honest. That actually has Jotaro acknowledge Moka's concern (and thanks her for it!), but defers it until later. No vagueness or excuses about it.

If 'newspaper drama' does have a comfortable lead in the meantime (relative to the 'worried about Tsukune' choices)...I'm tempted to switch.

On the other hand, I feel like Moka head pats are Jospeh's exclusive right. Not that anyone knows that yet...

Honestly, my biggest problem with "head pat" is that it doesn't really feel like something Jotaro would do to me, even factoring in how he's diverged in this story. He's not exactly the affectionate, touchy-feely type; he's the stoic, punch-assholes'-teeth-out-the-backs-of-their-skulls type.

That's what makes it funnier.

I imagine that Jotaro would be doing this head pat in a stoic, visibly emotionless fashion. He thinks he's being reassuring (he'll probably even internally congratulate himself on emoting more than usual) but to most outside observers he's as stone-faced and intimidating as ever. Moka probably knows him enough to see it for what it is, that Jotaro-senpai is expressing gratitude and means what he says...even if she still considers Jotaro to be intimidating by default.

Which makes it funnier and cuter, of course.

That's basically the idea. Imagine Mount Rushmore Face patting a cute girl's head, if Mount Rushmore had a face that looked like it wants to punch people.
 
Dealing with a bunch of assorted IRL crap, so you all will probably have another day or two to change your votes and/or try to convince other people to.
 
Oh, what the hell.

[x]You've had to deal with a lot of Newspaper drama and other crap, looking back.

it does kinda feel like a lot has been happening in such a short timespan huh?
If it hasn't actually, I'd probably need to do a reread.

[X]You're just worried about Tsukune. He's the only guy friend you've got, after all.
-[X]Hint that there're other things bothering you you'd like to vent about, but they can wait until you know Tsukune's safe.
 
Need a tiebreaker.
