[ he waits for rohan, anyway. it must not be uncommon for people to wait outside of his house, considering rohan's stellar social skills. on the other hand, he is a special visitor in that he has managed to carry a conversation with him more than once and rohan did not kick him out of his circle.

and once he sees him, giorno smiles. he looks wonderful. not that rohan never does look wonderful - he approves of the meticulous way he cares for his appearance whether there's a reason for him to go outside or not - but he appreciates the fact that they look attractive together. there's something to be said about appearances, and giorno always appreciates people who take the time to maintain them. in his facetious life as a mafia boss, any effort involved to maintain a persona, good or bad, always gets a kind of approval from him.

he offers his left arm to escort him, should he feel like taking it to the car. he can't stop smiling. ]

[ rohan takes his arm without much hesitation, releasing it when they get to the car. he's quiet for once, even though it doesn't last long; once the car has started and they're on their way he speaks up again. ]

You're in a good mood.

It's a fine evening, and we're about to get good food. You look like you stepped out of Vogue. Really, I can't be happier.

[ that and they're no longer talking about business. there's the faintest sound of music coming from the radio as they make their way to tonio's - a somewhat short trip given the size of the town, but giorno drives there comfortably. ]

[ of course he looks good (because rohan is as full of himself as someone can be). the compliment still makes rohan turn more fully towards giorni, resting his chin on his hand. ]

You don't look so bad yourself.

[ the smile's nice, since it's genuine. ]

[ the restaurant is warm when they walk in, and tonio has a table ready for the young don and the mangaka. he tries not to be too formal with giorno despite the latter's insistence, and with rohan he warmly welcomes him in his restaurant. giorno pulls a chair for rohan, and then seats himself. ]

Tonio reminds me of home. I'm glad he's doing so well in this town.

[ he looks at rohan, rather thoughtful. ] I'm surprised Morioh is good enough for you to stay in. I picture you more in the city, something like Tokyo, for example. [ but what does he know. rohan is the one who can read people like books, and while giorno does have the skill, it certainly doesn't compare to someone like him.

a funny thing, to have someone so powerful as kishibe rohan and yet not have his loyalty. the egoistic side of giorno is only the slightest bit offended at this arrangement. there are plenty of options available to someone who holds italy in the palm of his hand with a stand that cannot be matched and with men and women who are willing to lay their lives for him, and yet kishibe rohan will not be moved. it is maddening, but very intriguing to giorno. it keeps him coming back to this small town, even if it has other attractive citizens. ]

Tonio is finding his place. [ as is giorno, in a different half of the world. ] The city is too busy when I'm working. Obviously there are facets of life there that I have to incorporate into my art, but living and spending too much time there is simply exhausting.

[ rohan takes his seat. there's no menu here; tonio starts them with a light antipasto and prosecco. ]

I prefer to go to less crowded environments when I travel for leisure.
