Jojo's Bizarre Adventures: Painted With Darkness

Where's Jojo?

Joan was an odd and paranoid woman. So when she learned of a lady so clearly interested in her little brother, she decided to make sure they were everything they seemed to be.

Beginning at her college, Joan disguised herself and spied on Annie. While she was in a lecture, Joan snuck off to go look at her private records.

Joan:(mind) 87-98 average score. So she's a moron...

Joan:(mind) Hm? The ID picture... Hm...

Continuing to follow Annie, she watched her hang out with a bird on the roof.

Joan:(mind) Friendly... But no friends...

Once Annie was done for the day, she headed to Jojo's office where she took her seat at Joan's repurposed desk. Annoyed, Joan went in as herself to get in closer.

Entering through the door Annie was about to welcome her, until she realized who came in.

Annie: Oh, it's you...

Joan: Yes. Keep away from my breast please and thank you.

Annie: You aren't going to let that go, are you?

Joan: I want to see my brother.

Annie: He isn't here.

Joan:...

Joan:(glares) If I open that door, and he's there. I'm going to beat the shit out of you.

Annie: Don't threaten me! I ain't scared of you.

Joan: That's a mistake.

(Ring, ring)

Annie picks up the phone.

Annie: Uh-huh.

She puts it away.

Annie: Jojo has entered the building.

Joan enters the main office, purposely leaving the door open. Walking across the room, passing the missing brother's desk up against the left wall, she stops in front of the desk standing in front of the window where John stared out the window.

Joan held out her arms.

After a minute, Jojo begrudgingly gave Jojo a hug, and went back to the window. Joan then took his seat and they silently passed the time.

No cases arrived.

Annie then headed home, and Joan followed.

Arriving at her apartment, Joan transformed a rat into binoculars and spied through the windows from the building across. Annie did nothing out of the ordinary.

Until midnight...

Annie suddenly froze, all expression fading from her face.

Joan:(mind) Is she okay...?

Undressing, and putting her clothes away, Annie ties up her hair, puts on a nightcap and robe before disappearing into another room after turning off all the lights.

By morning, Annie walked out of the room. Clearly filled with much more emotions as she stretched, yawned and restarted her daily routine.

For one week, Joan followed Annie around. Almost getting caught by the college bird.

During that week, the only Bizzare thing that she did everyday, at midnight, was suddenly lose all emotion, and change into her sleepwear and vanish into her room. So upon the last day of the week, Joan decided to enter her apartment as she slept. Creating a key, she entered quietly.

Joan:(mind) This place... Should be able to fit more then one person... Counting the doors... There might actually be another bedroom...

Joan ignored that thought and focused on the bedroom. She quietly entered to find Annie fast asleep, tucked in to her hospital bed.
