[NO HE DOESN'T CARE AT ALL]

I won't hesitate to actually remove your fingers. You won't need them to survive, if you're strong enough.

Explain about the situation here. Who wanted to kill you?

robin ... [ so dramatic. maximum edgelord. he doesn't believe this for a second but he will humour the other boy. ] alright, alright. i wanna keep my fingers, so i'll be sure to check my spelling.

[ what is this? is he in school? god. ] a whackjob by the name of 'kamui'. he's a bit of a girly-looking guy, orangey-pink hair tied up in a braid. smiles a lot, in that creepy way.

if you see him, don't go near him. i don't want you to get hurt.

It takes more than some simpleton to scare or hurt me. You still fail to grasp the extent of my abilities. Clearly, I am more worried about you needing a six foot hole.

What did you say to him? "Kewl"?

[ humble pie!! buddy!!!! he can, sort of, sense the concern and that's a nice thing, but it also happens to be masked under several layers of bullying. why is this boy like this?

and before everything else: ] wait a second. what's wrong with 'kewl'?

[LOOK SHUT UP]

Everything.

it's a good word when you see something really awesome and just 'cool' ain't enough, alright

are you sure you're really an 11 year old [ he doesn't know how old damian is but he's definitely too young to be acting 40! ]

First, I'm thirteen. Second, saying "kewl" makes you sound like a kindergartener.

If you want a better word for cool, try: amazing, incredible, marvelous, astounding, extraordinary.

[ but how is a guy 3 years younger than him, half his size ... the real mystery. ]

i know those words! i'm not an idiot. [ he is very smort, or so his best friend tells him. ]

i'm gonna sound like an old man if i go around adjusting my monocle and calling things 'extraordinary!'

[ getting so sidetracked from the talk about an actual dangerous person. ]

[No one ever questions the manly testosterone the Joestars and company were all given, really.]

You sound intelligent, not old. Kewl is just butchering an already simple word. Anyway.

[He's not dumb!! He's aware, but he's also stubborn and has to make a point.]

Back on topic.

[ true, they actually had something ... important to discuss. ]

Honestly, I didn't say much of anything to him. He thought I looked strong, and that was already reason enough to wanna kill me.

[Hm. Damian will have to look into this "Kamui," and keep an eye on him. Time to make a villain list.]

Did he ask to fight you? It's ignorant he assumed immediately he could kill you without dueling.

[Damian, you're literally the exact same way.]

[ people need to app more villains to awash tbh ]

He didn't exactly ask so much as, assert that we were gonna fight. If he asked, I would've just said 'No'. [ why would he want to fight for no reason ..... would rather play video games, thanks. ]

He's just a psycho. He seems to want to take down whoever looks even a little strong so he can prove he's better than them. Almost broke my arm, that asshole.

I'm used to nutjobs coming at me but I've never been attacked for such a nonsensical reason.

[WHAT]

In that case, stay away from him. I'll look into it.

Did you notice anything else? About his abilities.

No powers that I could see, but he's got some strength and agility. He could easily break concrete with his fists alone. Don't think I could take him if I didn't have Crazy Diamond.

Hold on ... Are you going to try and find him? [ Don't??? He's not sending the baby after the violent weirdo. ]

It's called reconnaissance. You won't ever know what people are capable of unless you do research on them.

If he doesn't have powers, he's at least a small step below those who do. Superhuman strength isn't anything you should take lightly.

Research is fine if you plan to hit up a library. It doesn't typically involve seeking out violent jerks who might kill you.

I'm not okay with this. You shouldn't do it. [ He will scold you until you listen. ]

I don't think you can do anything to stop me. It's one thing to have supernatural strength. It's another to go after other people with it.

Besides, I'm not afraid of him. If he thinks he can beat me, we'll just get to see who is better. Me, obviously.

[ josuke needs to learn how to bake so he can bake damian some HUMBLE PIE!!! ]

It's not a matter of being afraid or not. Did you miss the part where I said this guy might kill you?

It's not a joke. I want you to go home to your folks like the rest of us once we figure this shitty place out. If you're itching for something to do, we can go hunt or something. Come on.

[ Don't do the thing... ]

[please god give this kid some humble pie???]

You assume I'm afraid of dying.

[HE IS, but shh. A little. He's died once. He can't say that, though.]

Make no mistake, I'm going to return home. I'm also not going to let someone go around fighting others without issuing an honorable challenge. Therefore, I'm already hunting. I'm hunting him.

What have I done ... I really shouldn't have told you anything!! Ughhh [ He told Damian about Kamui to warn him to stay away. He didn't expect Damian to do quite the opposite. Wow. ]

Do you know how to deal with strong guys like him, at least? Don't just charge in.

I told you I was gathering information.

[He'll go charging in afterward.]

So you're just going to stalk him? How good are you at that?

[ asking a batkid if he's good at stalking ... josuke please. ]

It's not stalking. It's social research.

It's something I knew how to do at three.

robin ...

what kind of childhood did you have ...?

actually, i really should have asked this ages ago.

That isn't any of your business. I've been trained extensively for these kinds of situations. That's all you need to know.

[AKA his childhood was shit, Josuke.]
