JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: The Golden Arrow

[What Is an Arrow?]

A watcher of the starry Egyptian night sky, a finder of diamonds in an ordinary town, a free spirit carried by the Golden Wind, shooting through the barriers of fate...

"The praise of humanity is the praise of courage."

The Golden Spirit of humanity shines in the depths of despair.

"I've seen it."

"The wheel of fate is turning."

They said.

[Fragmentary IFs: Stand Personas]

The loyal knight, Silver Chariot,

The clingy Gold Experience,

The ultimate social-phobic, Crimson Turtle,

[Fragment 1: Soul Swap]

Time Erasure: Red Turtle crawls half a meter away - Time Restored: Silver Town grabs Red Turtle back -

Time Erasure: Turtle escapes - Time Restored: grabbed back -

Escape - grab - escape - grab...

Crimson Turtle: D-Diavolo! Ten seconds of erasure... that's far, far, far too short a time for a turtle to escape...

Boss & Polnareff: ...

#What to do when your Stand suddenly starts playing an erotic game of cat and mouse with its own kind#

[Fragment 2: In the Middle of an Escape]

Sex Pistols: Turn, turn again, - bullets go round and round

Crimson Turtle: Erase, erase again, erase the result, erase, erase

Boss & Mista: ???

#Why a bullet keeps changing direction and piercing the enemy's body, yet still misses#

[Notes]

1. Content: Various Stand-persona IFs. Survival and rescue themes. An ensemble cast.

2. Timeline: After Part 5 -> final battle. Read the chapters in chronological order: 5 -> 11 -> 1 -> 4.

3. There may be a tendency to portray the OC's Stand Arrow as male and aggressive, but it's essentially an emotionless arrow, with no gender and no pairing.

*. Amount of character torment: A lot for the Boss, a moderate amount for Polnareff, a little for Mista and a tiny bit for others.

5. Written in a fit of inspiration / messy perspectives / fractured plot / ...

6. Not knowing the original JO5 plot may affect your reading experience.

7. Brainstorming ideas for JO Parts 1-6 can be found in the author's idea collection.

Theme: Cast into time and space to risk life against life; only fate can oppose fate.
