[ translated fanworks. ]
Various little fanwork tidbits I've translated for fun.
Disclaimers:
✮ My moonrunes skills are serviceable, but not fluent. This is all just for funsies, so I haven't spent much time proofreading and double-checking. Everything here should be fairly accurate because I try my best to preserve the artist's intentions whenever I translate, but an unfamiliar kanji or two may have slipped by without dictionary consultation.
✮ Because of the above, I'm doing this mostly just for myself. I haven't asked any artist permissions, so I won't be doing any image-editing / reuploading. All images will be linked to, with text translations.
✮ I doubt this will ever actually be a cause for concern, but I'll say it just in case: please don't repost my translations, or use them for anything. I can't guarantee the quality of anything here, so I'd like them to stay here in their own little dusty playpen.
✮ UNMARKED SPOILERS EVERYWHERE.
✮ Everything's divvied up into two categories: heavy / serious / feels-y stuff and more lighthearted stuff
✮ Almost all Stardust Crusaders stuff. Maybe some other parts will sneak in?
✮ Some of this is gonna be shippy and fujoshi-flavored.No Very very little porn. 
Anything raunchy will be noted in the comment subject.
✮ I don't take any of this stuff as canon, and it shouldn't be reflective of how I RP Kakyoin. It's mostly going here because I wanted a place to store all the little tidbits I've translated for fun.
✮ Here's how I format:
I use first initials for most characters (Jotaro, Kakyoin, Abdul, Polnareff, Dio, etc.) except for Joseph before Jotaro already hogged the J spot.

(K: haa, you're the best.)
J: don't look at me with those eyes.
(J: it's annoying.)
J: it only works like that if it's kakyoin and his hierophant. if you and i were to get all sticky and clingy like that, it'd just look like we're gay.

K: (as expected of jotaro! my very first friend!)
K: (but it's so obvious that if i eat that then it's going to hurt so much!!)
K: (but friend or not, seeing the kind of face you're making would make it hard for anyone to refuse, they'd have to accept!)
K: (anyone would do that, i have to do that! that's all!)
K: (die, you handsome man)
K: (for some reason i feel like there's someone right next to me laughing as if this is really funny, but i won't pay it any attention!)

J: aah, i got it, kakyoin. you're just a yamato nadeshiko.
K: jotaro ;;;
P: so, which is it really?
K: well ... i do think they're both cute, but if you asked me if i'd want to take care of one or the other, not so much ...
http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=manga_big&illust_id=46336323&page=14
J: i wouldn't really wanna take care of them, either. i don't like having to pamper things.
J: i'd prefer something like fish.

K: i don't want to. why should i have to go get a towel for you?
P: but i already took off all my clothes (look~)
P: putting them all back on again is annoying.
K: YOU DON'T HAVE TO SHOW US!! GO GET IT YOURSELF, ON YOUR OWN!!
P: (kakyoin is so mean...)
K: (hufff)
J: (pft)
J: as always, you're strict towards polnareff.
K: ... i don't really mean to be that way.
K: i suppose i seem a little harsh towards him, but ...
J: ... i was pretty sure you'd be the type to be respectful towards your elders.
K: ... mr. joestar and mr. avdol are my elders with a lot more life experience, so i definitely respect them.
K: and it's not like i don't respect polnareff ... but ...
J: ... but?
K: when we first met polnareff
K: while watching his fight with mr. avdol
K: we got to see his chivalrous side.
K: and i came to realize
K: my own weakness.
K: as someone who was implanted with that flesh bud and ended up swearing loyalty to DIO,
K: i came to envy
K: the strength of his mental fortitude.
K: because i was only controlled by that flesh bud, and wasn't able to maintain control over myself.
J: ...
J: kakyoin
K: BUT!!
K: what is it with his behaviour?! take your eyes off him for one moment and he's trying to talk to girls, wandering off in one direction, then wandering off in the opposite direction, don't you think there's a limit to just acting freely like that?! there was even a time when the girl he was flirting with was an enemy stand user, he just isn't careful at all. this is a journey where we encounter dangerous situations on a regular basis, and i think that his cheerfulness just isn't normal. i feel like he has absolutely no awareness of danger, i just can't believe it. [ rant rant rant rant ]
J: (ah, yeah ...)
K: ... if he was just a little more calm, personality-wise, i wouldn't get this aggravated.
K: but the frivolous nature of the way he talks,
K: things like that, they sting at me a bitterly [癇に障って] ...
K: the thought that, even though he's always goofing off
K: when it comes down to fundamentals, i can't compare to him,
K: it's somehow vexing ...
K: ... basically, our types just don't match well.
K: i guess it would be nice if i were also a bit more optimistic, but i'm definitely not much good at that.
J: ...
J: guess so.

K: yes.
J: aren't you curious?
K: hmmm, it's not that i don't wonder about the earlier parts at all ...
K: but it's not a problem even if i don't know about them. and besides ...
K: the feeling of superiority i get from knowing about the plot before that know-it-all vampire is much more satisfying.
J: ...
K: i have a few other ones, too. would you like to read them? (they're all just the last volumes in their series.)
http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=manga_big&illust_id=46754734&page=4

K: is that so? then, if you ever get curious, please let me know.

K: ah, miss holly! (lucky!)
http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=manga_big&illust_id=44483300&page=1
H: you're not with jotaro, today. you know, i just finished shopping for ingredients to make dinner ...
K: ah
K: please give your bags, i'll carry them for you. (they're heavy aren't they?)
H: oh my, you're so kind, thanks~ (just one, then)
http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=manga_big&illust_id=44483300&page=2
H: you know, kakyoin, a kind kid like you being friends with jotaro-kun
H: makes me really happy~ how's he doing at school lately? is he getting along well with his classmates? (is he getting into fights?)

H: ? (kakyoin-kun?)
K: .....
http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=manga_big&illust_id=44483300&page=3
K: it ... it makes me very happy to hear you speak of me as his friends, but ... well, miss holly, i wonder if i could ask you a sort of very bizarre question?
H: (eh?) y ... yes? (gulp...)
K: how can a 'friend' become a proper 'friend'?
http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=manga_big&illust_id=44483300&page=4
[ eh? eh? ]
H: ehhhh, hm?
H: eh, um, but
H: kakyoin-kun, you traveled with jotaro all that time, right? i thought that you two must have become close during that time --
K: that's supposed to be the case, but!
K: at that time we were all just working towards the same goal, focused solely on achieving that one thing (i was really focused just on wanting to say your life, miss holly)
K: so i ended up blending in at the time, but after returning to japan, well ... i realized that i wasn't very sure about where i stood in terms of being his 'friend'... (i might say that i'm not very sure, or that i'm completely lost...)
http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=manga_big&illust_id=44483300&page=5
K: and once i started thinking of that, i even ended up becoming doubtful of how jotaro thinks of me in terms of being his friends. is there a chance that i'm not supposed to call him by his name? or something like that. if something like me lurks around him, by any chance, am i just a bother to him -- is what i ended up thinking about. (come to think of it, with the type of person that i used to be, i would never have been able to be friends with someone who wears such a huge chain on his school uniform.)
H: noo, you're overthinking it, kakyoin-kun ;;; (calm down;;;)
http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=manga_big&illust_id=44483300&page=6
H: despite how he looks, jotaro is a really kind person, you know <3 (even if he grumbles a lot, he still lets me give him his good-bye kiss every day)
H: you've hung out with him so you should know about it, right, kakyoin-kun?
K: o -- of course i know! absolutely!
[ K: in fact, because (?) jotaro's been so kind to me ]
(delinquent: what the hell is he )
(J: you look pale, are you alright? )
(fujoshi: kya, those two are being close again -- ! )
[ K: other delinquent students and some (rotten) girls have ended up grouping me together with him. (so soon after transferring in ...) ]
K: jotaro hasn't done anything wrong. it's just, i've never had a friend before, so i'm not very sure about how i should act.
(K: even when i think that i should just act normally)
(K: i get weirdly very nervous.)
K: i feel bad that all i can do is act incredibly awkward and restrained around him ...
H: oh dear ...
http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?mode=manga_big&illust_id=44483300&page=7
(maiden switch ON!)
H: kakyoin kun ... you're very pure, aren't you~ (you're thinking of jotaro that much ...)
(H: i'm somehow reminded of my adolescence)
H: leave it to me!! despite what you may think, back when i was a student, i was responsible for hooking up a bunch of different couples!! (i'll definitely make sure the two of you end up close) (<-- somehow ended up getting weirdly and intensely drawn into the situation)
K: c -- couple?! (miss holly?)
K: um, it's different? i wanted to be 'friends' with him, not a couple ...
H: there's no difference in wanting to be close to him! it'll be fine as long as you trust my methods!!
[ this is how kakyoin ended up hearing how to become close to jotaro, as well as how to become a couple with him, for some reason ]

(H: sorry, i got a little too excited and ended up talking to you mostly about how to become a couple. but i do think it'll help with becoming better friends with him, so please use that advice well <3)
(K: ... is what miss holly said, but to use that advice ... that's a little ;;; in the first place, i don't really understand how much distance should be kept between friends, so i don't know how to put any of that advice to use ...)

J: ?
(K: aaah, whatever, either way's fine! doing something'll be better than doing nothing!)
