This was the fic I wrote for the Stardust OVA Zine! A journal entry style story from Kakyoin's point of view.
The zine is also currently running a leftover sale so if you missed out, go check it out! There's a lot of fun stuff and beautiful art and fics in the zine!

December 1st 1988
It's been a while since I've written a journal, but I felt compelled to buy one after seeing someone selling them in the market today. After all, this is the kind of journey that deserves to be written down.
I suppose I should start off by introducing myself: I'm Kakyoin Noriaki, a high school student from Japan. It was a chance meeting—perhaps one would even say destiny—that led me to my current location in India, in the company of some interesting travel companions.
While it's been barely the course of a couple weeks since I met Kujo Jotaro and his grandfather Joseph Joestar, I can't help but feel like I've known them for years. Even to the point that I instantly felt compelled to help save Jotaro's mother after knowing her for barely a day. It's not just because Jotaro saved my life, I feel like we were bound to meet, one way or another. Avdol spoke about the connection Stand users have; how we're inexplicably drawn to each other. Perhaps that is all the answer needed to my question of supposed destiny, but, I still can't help but feel there is a higher purpose to the five of us coming together.
I remember reading in school about the crusaders on their holy missions. Perhaps it's a bit of a bold statement to say, but I feel like we too are on a crusade—one that will hopefully end in the defeat of DIO and Holy Kujo's return to health.
But for now, we're already on our way to our next destination. I'm sure there will be plenty of time to take down more accounts later.
Here is the cover I got to do for the Stardust OVA Zine! Thank you so much for letting me part of this project, it's been so much fun to draw OVA fanart again!
