gyro&johnny: why i love them

i first got into jojos bizarre adventure part 7 (steel ball run) in the summer after my sophomore year of college. it was a rough summer, i was drinking a lot, i had some bad friends (but not all bad friends) and a mean/abusive boyfriend who didn't care for me very much...after late nights of drinking and driving around the hills i would come home to my moms house, feeling very lonesome. i wanted to find something to soothe my sadness so i started reading manga again, and i instantly fell in love with gyro and johnny because of their dynamic. i liked that they could be sassy to each other, but at the end of the day, they love each other more than anyone else and make huge sacrifices to protect each other.

weirdly enough, i met V because he used to post about gyjo on another website! on the morning after my ex boyfriend broke up with me i tried to hurt myself, but i woke up in the morning still alive, i opened the internet and the first thing i saw was a gyjo AMV (animated music video) that V had posted XD kinda sad, but kinda sweet! anyways, needless to say, i consider V the johnny to my gyro.......... but other times he's definitely more of a protective person to me, at those times i guess he'd be my gyro and i'd be his johnny XD

individually, i love gyro because he's funny but still has a strong sense of convictions. a lot of people mischaracterize him as stupid, but he's really not. i think a lot of times i'm misunderstood in the same way, people don't see my sadness because i hide behind my smile XD but gyro is a really deep character, his background is that he's a doctor but also an executioner, so he has a strong understanding of life and death, and he cares deeply for his patients as well as the people that are executed by his family. in my heart i consider gyro to be mohawk like some of my ancestors on my dad's side because he really understands the value and gift of life :D i feel like gyro has a very protective and loving nature beneath his sometimes grumpy exterior, which makes him a very comforting character to me X3

as for johnny, i love him individually because he has very dry humor and a bad temper, but underneath it all he has a very tender heart. johnny seems like the type of person who has been in survival mode for a really long time and doesn't remember how to behave around others..like someone else i might know X| (ahem. me ._. ) but despite everything that's happened to him and the abandonment of the people he thought loved him and the loneliness and despair he experienced after being shot, he still finds beauty in the world... and in gyro :~))))) so overall i think the two of them compliment each other very well, and they're very balanced characters who helped me to deal with a really difficult time in my own life :P and ill love them forever!!!
