[And it's his way of just having too soft of a heart in some ways, too fucking tender, because he can't get over his own mistakes even after he's long since been forgiven. And that's fine and all, but some people deserve to be alive more than Leone Abbacchio.]
Ask whatever you want. [She's sharing, so why not?] But damn, fifteen years. [DAMN JILL you age well?!] You two seem pretty close. Hard not to be after so long. You miss him?
[He shrugs.] I don't know if you'll be able to see the ability, but yeah. I've got your back.
Don't get what it is with people thinking others enjoy dealing with things like this and not just... moving on, you know? It's being stuck like this, in limbo. How can you move on if you can't move on?
[ It's not directed at anyone or aggressive. Rhetoric but not. Thought made solid and real when vocalized. Jill doesn't know much about Leone's past, but she knows he's been affected much like she has. That he has regrets. ]
I mean I'd like to know more about you, but where the hell do you start other than the way normal people do? You know, that way where it doesn't scratch the surface, even. [ But she smiles to herself, head ducked as she stares into her glass. ] Only got a few living friends and he's always been the most important. I guess people outside our circle would probably say we're co-dependent or our relationship is unhealthy, but when you work more than you don't and rarely even get to go home... our lives are our work.
[ She dodges the question but answers it all at once. It's crystal clear even if she thinks she's sly. ]
Know that I've got yours, too. Wasn't joking about being able to crush a skull or break a neck with my thighs you know.
You're preaching to the choir. It's not exactly a choice.
[For all that he hates and blames himself, he's at least come to terms that he should try to move on, even if he has no idea how to even accomplish that.]
Fuck, you can't even ask me that. I've known only weirdos as my best friends. Jumping into the middle of shit is like the only way to start I've noticed. [But that smile helps, and he definitely can tell how important Chris is as a topic.] I think I get it. At least a little. [jill has feelings and it's great but also he understands her missing him. Because she DOES OBVIOUSLY.]
I believe you and I would love to see that shit just not first hand. If you get my meaning.
Figured I didn't need to tell you that. Always kind of astounding that people do.
[ That's what can make it so frustrating. The idea of doing it, wanting to do it, even genuinely trying to. If only it were as easy as just saying it. ]
Oh, well, sounds like me and you got similar taste in people.
[ Weirdos. They weren't too unique in their fields, but a lot of people had ideas of what they wanted, where they wanted to be. How. She liked that about Leone. ]
Here's hoping we won't need that but -- [ She shifts away from the counter and turns away to pull at the meat, smell now wafting stronger, making sure it's not sticking. Still not quite ready to turn. She's aiming just a bit more rare than medium-rare. ] -- I guess I should mention, do you prefer your surname? Was talking to Jotaro and I think I'm the only one that calls you by your given name.
