Disclaimer: I am NOT a musician nor I am very knowledgeable in musical terms and stuff so if I get a term or an instrument wrong, I am very sorry. Really, I am. It's hard being this stupid, believe me. But right now let's try something new to keep things fresh since I ran out of writing material due to having very limited internet (the countryside had such bad signal and no wifi so I have to save my mobile data as much as I can)
Also I added some lyrics just to help you get the feel of what part they are listening to, and some quotes from the show where that specific part played to help even more, if it made you cringe or you feel like it ruined the whole thing, please just ignore it.
Anyways, I just wanna apologize if your request did not make it, but I just wanna see if this chapter does well enough for me to make a part 2 since I myself want the team to listen to some obscure themes like that Owner of a Lonely Heart-esque theme from Part 2 or Formaggio's theme which was an absolute banger or Voodoo Kingdom. So without further a do, I hope you enjoy the longest chapter of this fic yet.
"Alright, alright, let's take a break from all the fighting and check out some of the goods." Yang said as she pressed the menu.
"Well, I can't say I don't want to listen to it, because I really do." Weiss shrugged.
The large screen showed a main menu.
"Oh! There! There!" Ruby piped in as she pointed at the Extras.
"Click." The blonde said as she did the action. They saw the 5 cover arts of each main part and it's respective soundtracks.
"Ohhh! Look at these art." Yang said.
Blake glanced at the third JoJo, but she noticed that the 4th and 5th one were there. "Wait, why are these guys here? Didn't we only have the first three tapes?"
Meanwhile in Ozpin's office.
"KOICHIIIIEEEEEEHHH!" *BOOM*
Ozpin, Glynda, and Ironwood were left stunned as everyone's favorite mangaka exploded in the rain.
Back with Team RWBY
"Yeah, hey I wonder if JNPR were done with Phantom Blood?" Ruby pondered out loud and right on cue, they heard a knock on the door. "Weiss, go get it." Blake ordered.
"What, why me?!" The heiress protested.
"You're the closest one to the door." The faunus chuckled.
"Ohhh, look at our big gentle boy over here!" Yang said as she chose to scan Phantom Blood's OST for the moment.
The heiress grumbled something under her breath before opening the door.
It was Nora.
"Hey... Are you okay?" Weiss asked as she noticed Nora sniffling. Nora pulled the heiress in a bone crushing hug whilst she sobbed.
"Woah! Hey! Nora, what's wrong?" Ruby said as her and the girls stood up to approach her.
"Someone... Dear to everyone... Died!" Nora comically exclaimed.
The team gasped.
"Who?!" Yang asked.
Nora saw the promotional art of Jonathan on the screen behind RWBY and cried even louder.
"Woah woah! Take it easy... It's okay." Ruby shushed gently. "IT'S NOT!" Nora yelled loudly, making the heiress wince.
"Who died?" Blake asked in worry.
"HIM!" Nora pointed at the screen.
The team turned around and saw the first JoJo.
Nora shoved the PB tape to Weiss before running away sobbing.
RWBY looked at eachother.
"Well, that answered your question, Rubes." Yang mumbled.
"O-Okay! Let's get started, ladies!" Ruby shakily cheered. They returned to their seats and placed the Phantom Blood tape to the table gently.
They observed the promotional art of the big guy. Jonathan was smiling, wearing the fashionable outfit he had during his visit to the Ogre Street as he posed elegantly. Weiss puffed her cheeks in an attempt to stop her face from going red.
Yang whistled "Mmmm, Weiss you horny dog."
"H-HUH?! WHERE'D THAT COME FROM?!"
Blake grabbed the remote from the table and played the track called Roundabout.
"You chose him because he had such a huge dong!" The blonde grinned. "N-No! I chose him because he is the ideal man for me! Besides! Y-Y-You don't know that!" The heiress stuttered. "Oh please, Erina literally never remarried despite only spending 5 days at most as a wife and the only explanation to that is no one can measure up to him. Except his descendants probably. In layman's term, GIANT JOESTAR DONG." Yang obnoxiously teased. "You are such a pervert! Don't talk to me!" Weiss blushed madly as she covered her face with her hands.
"Huh, I think I know what this is gonna be." Ruby said as she recognized the song.
The first few seconds were just strums of a guitar.
"This is the one they used during the cliffhangers! Holy shit it's 8 minutes long?" Yang exclaimed.
"Oh here we go..." Blake smiled as she heard the signature memetic riff.
"Dun dundundundundundun!" Ruby hummed as she tapped her foot to the strums. "In and arooooound the lake! Nananana from the sky..." Yang desperately tried to sing along.
"It's quite catchy... No, scratch that, very catchy." Weiss commented.
"It sounds like some really sick roadtrip music!" Yang grinned, she can imagine riding Bumblebee through Patch listening to this. "Yeah! I want to listen to this driving a car around a countryside or something." Ruby commented. "Do you know how to drive?" Blake asked. "No." The leader replied quickly. Weiss said nothing ws she bobbed her head to music.
Around the 5 minute mark the song started to slow down it's pace.
In and around the lake,
Mountains come out of the sky,
They stand there...
24 before my love and I'll be there!
"This is the part that played in that episode where Caesar died! Oh wait... That's nothing to be cheerful for." Ruby deflated. "Let's listen to his leitmotif after!" Weiss suggested.
"Leit- what?" Ruby asked.
"It's what you call an entity's signature theme." Weiss said.
"My leitmotif is probably I Burn. Just my favorite song." Yang commented.
"I get really good vibes listening to this song. It feels like a sunny day." Blake smiled and closed her eyes.
They reached the 8 minute mark.
"Darararada da da! I wonder how this song will end?" Yang tapped her hands at the arm rest.
It ended with a closing version of the signature memetic strum from the beginning.
The team applauded "CERTAINLY AWESOME!" Yang cheered.
"I agree. Progressive rock wasn't my cup of tea but I'd make an exception for roundabout." Weiss clapped her hands.
"Who sang it?" Ruby asked.
"YES." Blake replied.
"It's... It's not a yes or no question." Ruby muttered. "No, the artist's name was literally YES." the faunus said. "Never heard of em but they certainly deserve more!" Yang said.
"Okay, since the next one you want to hear was Caesar's theme... Let's go to Joseph's bizarre adventure." Blake said as she switched to Battle Tendency.
"Oh! Oh! Let's go back to Phantom Blood later, I wanna hear the theme that played when Jonathan punched the shit out of Bruford!" Yang requested. "Sure." Blake replied.
The cover art was Joseph wearing the attire he had when he gunned down Straizo in that cafe. He was smirking at the camera and posing quite suavely holding a tommygun.
Yang blushed to herself "C-Can we look for the theme real quick, I can't stop falling in love with that face."
"Wait, wanna check the other covers first?" Blake asked.
"Sure!" RWY replied.
Switching to next, they saw a rather colorful background with the third Joestar looking at the left side of the screen with a scowl, his jawline defined, emerald eyes beautiful enough to attract the team, gold stud earrings and a really weird cap that weirded Ruby out.
"Ehem. So, about his hair and his hat..." Weiss trailrd off. "His hat is weird." She commented. "Well, didn't subtract his hotness one bit." Yang said before turning to Blake and groping her boobs "So! Are you excited to see your crush in action?"
Blake blushed madly as she slapped the blonde's arms away "Hey! What are you- what gave you that idea!?"
"Well, I see a recurring theme here, we get attracted to the JoJo that we're similar to in terms of personality, although Weiss was nowhere near as nice as Jonathan..." Yang whispered the last part. "I heard that!" Weiss protested.
"And this hunk over here seems to be the edgy one and right up your alley, alleycat." Yang grinned as she wrapped an arm around the faunus. "I think you just said a racial slur." The faunus said.
"Come oooon! No harm in admitting it." Yang persisted. "Okay, fine! I find him mysterious! And... Handsome..! Happy?" Blake asked as she focused on the screen.
"Ooooh! Very." Yang smirked.
"So is he going to be Joseph's son or grandson?" Weiss asked. "I think we'll find out soon." Ruby answered.
The faunus rolled her eyes and pressed Next.
It was the fourth one. He was younger looking, his body is just about leaner compared to the first three but nonetheless buffer than any other guy in the school except Yatsuhashi. He was facing left, holding his hand out towards the screen. Wearing his custom designed gakuran. He was sporting a pompadour to which the girls found quite endearing.
"Oooh! This one is a cutie. What do you think, Ruby?" Yang asked. "Y-Yang, I'm not interested." Ruby dismissed.
"So you like the next one more?" Weiss asked.
"Next one- no! I mean I am not interested in like having crushes and stuff! They are way too old!" Ruby whined. "Come on, no sense in hiding now." Blake sighed as she figured she wasn't better than Yang in this regard.
But then again, they are girls. It's normal to talk to one another about how hot a guy is.
"Okay, okay, let's put it this way. So this guy is exhibition A. Also I'm guessing he is a nice guy since he fixed our TV on a whim when he landed on it. Lets see exhibition B, Blake!" Yang ordered. Blake shook her head and smiled, pressing the remote.
It was a picture of a blond pretty boy, slightly facing right but he was looking at the screen with a mischievious yet alluring smirk, emitting a charismatic aura. Donning an even weirder hairdo than the fourth Joestar. They do find him very attractive though.
"Wow, they went over the top with his hair..." Blake muttered. "He looks... Nevermind." Weiss shook her head. The boy reminded her of Jonathan and Dio at the same time.
"So are you in to pretty boys? His face screams that he is a great kisser." Yang teased and nudged her sister.
"N-No..." Ruby stuttered weakly.
"Maybe she likes both?" Blake raised an eyebrow with a smirk. "No wonder she is silent all this time, she's crushing on two!" Weiss cackled evilly. "It makes sense, she is the leader so she should have two. But then again, my baby sister is a hottie I won't be surprised if the two fought over youuuu!" Yang cooed.
"CAN WE JUST LISTEN TO THE OST, PLEASE?!" Ruby errupted, flusterred.
The three older girls chuckled.
Ruby pouts "You girls are such bullies."
"Ah shut up, ya big baby." Yang dismissed.
Blake returned it to Battle Tendency.
"I wonder which one of these was Caesar's theme..." the faunus mumbled. Weiss observed the names.
"Overdrive, Propaganda, Avalon... Something tells me it's... THAT one." Weiss pointed.
They all stared at the weird name.
"Il mare... Eterno nella mia anima?" Ruby reads, butchering the pronunciation. "Wonder what language that was." Yang mumbled.
Play.
It starts with a somber piano.
A deep italian voice sang.
"Opera music!" Weiss snapped her fingers. "Opera music? Don't they just sang gibberish during that?" Blake raised an eyebrow. "No you buffoon. Father told me it was an extinct language called Latin. But it was long forgotten. Wonder how they still make new ones with a forgotten language." Weiss explained. "I think Dr. Oobleck mentioned something like that once." Yang said.
Ruby crossed her arms and gave Yang a look.
"I don't sleep in History class all the time!" The blonde whined.
They appreciate the mesmerizing combination of piano and violin as the man sang gracefully.
"It's picking up pace." Weiss mentioned. "Ahhhhh! This brings back bad memories!" Ruby yelped.
Ovunque tu vada!
Ovunque io vada... (It's blood, his blood, this is where he fell...)
"This is the part where they saw the blood under the rock!" Blake sniffled. "Here come the water works!" Yang covered her mouth.
c'è l'amor nella tua giornata...
(CAESAAAAAAAAAAAAR!)
The music reached it's climax as violins errupted.
"Caesaaaaaaaaaaaar..." Ruby tried to scream weakly.
Basta un tuo sorriso..!
"It's beautiful! Just beautiful!" Weiss applauded passionately.
un tuo sol sorriso,
"Why are random gibberish making me cry?" Blake sniffed.
Non morirà,
The singer passionately wailed on the mic.
l'alma mia. È immortaaaaaaaal!
But in a snap, it became somber.
Non serve versar lacrime...
"BRAVO! Just bravo! God, that song was powerful!" Yang smiled as tears flew down her eyes. "Such an emotional song!" Weiss commented. "Caesar..." Ruby whimpered.
"Okay, Jonathan's theme was next." Blake said as she took charge and returned to Phantom Blood OST.
"Fukutsu... Mushin no Sakebi." They all read out loud, a bracket that says it is indeed the Joestar's theme was next to the title, confirming their doubts. Blake wordlessly pressed the button.
It started out with a combinaton of piano and xylophone I think.
"Are you sure this is the one?" Yang asked.
A violin and tuba made it's way and played a rather ominous melody. "Oh, that's getting intense." Ruby commented as it picked up pace.
The violin triumphed as it played a faux version of Jonathan's victory theme, or rather the first few notes of it.
"Sounds heroic and stuff." The faunus mentioned. "This sounds like it but it's not the same, you feel me?" Yang said, noticing that it doesn't sound quite right.
Trumphets entered the fray as it played a menacing tune. "Woah, sounds like trouble is stirring up." Yang bobbed her head. Weiss didn't get the feel of it, it feels more like a story rather than a theme.
Cimbals clashed and the violin returned with a tragic accent. The piano started going haywire as the tuba went nuts.
"What is going on?" Ruby asked.
It spells mischief, dissonance. "It's just like Phantom Blood don't you think?" Weiss asked.
The first few sad notes were Jonathan's childhood, the pleasant tune that was replaced by an ominous one was his false friendship with Dio, and this chaotic notes were when his life spiraled down after his father died.
The rest of the team smiled at her keen ears and observation.
The dramatic music started picking pace. "Oooh! I bet this is the part when he learned hamon!" Yang smiled.
It's picking up and it played another faux version of Jonathan's theme, a bit closer to the one they were hoping for. But with a cimbal clash.
"Yeah! This is i- wait, it's too short." Yang said. The tuba was playing a stand offish music as they continued to listen "This is when he found out Dio lived!" Ruby smiled.
It slowed down as they heard a vibrating gong among the instruments. The ominous violins once again took charge. With the tuba coming in as its second in command.
It picked up pace once more as it turned in to a showdown-esque theme.
"Dun dun! Dudududun dun!" Ruby hummed along.
Their eyes widened as the heroic violins reigned king.
Behold, Jonathan's victory theme.
"THIS IS IT!" Yang yelled. The godly orchestra continued to massage their ears and give their resolves an unwavering erection.
"I wanna battle something evil!" Ruby exclaimed. "Its so inspiring!" Blake commented. Weiss smiled as she felt the music touch her heart.
"Trembling heart! Unrelenting heat! Oooooaaaahhh! Engrave! My blood's beat!" Yang recited JoJo's creed as her hair glowed.
"I want this theme to play when I finally slay my first Goliath!" Ruby declared. "Me too!" Weiss agreed.
(SUNLIGHT YELLOW OVERDRIIIIVE!)
The orchestra reached it's peak, causing the girls to feel like they just saved the world from ultimate evil.
The cimbals clashed as the instruments began playing a tragic yet bittersweet note to end the theme.
"Nooooo!" Yang deflated. "I guess this is where he..." Blake trailed off. "Yeah..." Weiss frowned.
"Well... That's awesome! Come on! Don't focus on the sad stuff!" Ruby cheered. "Heh. Yeah I agree that was pretty satisfying." Yang smiled. "Can we get a replay on that?" Weiss asked. Blake oblidged.
They all cheered as the victory theme played once more. "KOOOOOOOOOH!" The team playfully inhaled, imagining large amounts of hamon entering their lungs as the music builds up once more.
The climax were heard and they all screamed "OVERDRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!" until the duration of the victory music.
They all giggled at one another. "It's what success sounds like." Weiss commented. "You know when you wipe your ass after taking a shit and the toilet paper you used was clean, I want that to play." Yang joked causing the others to laugh.
"Okay, okay, what do you girls wanna hear next?" Blake asked. "Oooh, look at you, DJ Blakey." Yang chuckled. "Hmmm..." Weiss pondered. "Ughh there's alot of good themes we've heard so why can't I remember them now?! It's like me taking a test!" Ruby whined.
"What about Stroheim's theme?" Weiss suggested.
"Mmm, I never get tired looking at that face." Yang sighed dreamily at the Battle Tendency cover art. "Which one is it?" Blake asked as she browsed through the OSTs. "Oh! Awaken! Let's listen to that next!" Ruby yelled. "Good idea." Weiss commented.
They saw a track called Propaganda (German)
"German... German..." Blake trailed off. "Isn't that the word Stroheim says whenever he boasts about his science?" Weiss asked. "Could be." Blake replied and played.
DER MENSCH!
IST BOSE!
They were blown back by the sudden loud beat and deep voice. "OAAAAAAGGGGHHHHHHHH!" Yang screamed, trying to make her voice crack.
Synth proceeded to invade the theme.
(BRRRRRRRAKA MO NO GAAAAAHH!)
"It's his theme alright!" Ruby said. "Sounds incredibly militaristic, I should know, I went to some of Winter's ceremonies sometimes." Weiss commented.
The obnoxious voice delivering messages they didn't quite know. "The message it meant to deliver is that the German or Nazi force, whatever those are, are not to be messed with." Blake analyzed. "Well, so far they are a bunch of failures aren't they?" Yang wheezed, remembering that the army's blunders caused the Pillar Men's awakening in the first place. "But still, this sounds ominous and menacing." Yang adds.
A brief hype inducing riff on the one minute and thirty three second mark was heard before returning to the choir.
"It's like a... Umm... I'm ready to shoot something music." Ruby said. "Hmm, I might wanna download this and listen to it while in the arming up for a mission. Gonna sound super cool." Yang replied.
DER MENSCH!
The song finally ended.
"That was the most anti heroic theme I have ever heard." Blake commented. "Well duh, look who owns that theme." Ruby replied. "I mean... Setting aside the 'killing all those prisoners on that cage except that boy to awaken Santana' Stroheim seems pretty loyal to Joseph." Weiss said. "But he is a pretty funny guy, I can watch him accidentally press a button that can destroy the world and I'd die laughing at his reaction." Yang chuckled.
"So... Awaken." Blake reads the next track.
"YES!" RWY exclaimed.
AYAYAYAYYYYYYYY
Booming beat and trap music exploded as the girls bobbed their heads "Tenenenenenenenene!" Yang tried to hum along.
EHHHEHHHHHH
HEEEEHHEEEEHHHHHHH
NAYYYNAAAAAH
COME ON.
They felt the menacingly powerful vibe of the Aztec dubstep. "I feel like an Ultimate Lifeform!" Ruby claimed.
AAAAAAAHHHHHHH
The beat dropped once more followed by a guitar invading their ears.
"YEAH!" Yang screamed. "It sounds so threatening." Blake commented with a smile.
WHAT
WHAT
AYY
A sophisticated beat accompanied by a changed of riff by the guitar made itself known.
"I like this part." Weiss said as she tapped her foot.
COME ON
The beat dropped once more as it returned to the original tune from the start, except there are more aztec EEHHHHs in the background.
"Daaaamn! That was hard!" Yang commented. "I feel like I'm going to grow a beard anytime soon." Blake stated. "Ohhhh yeahhh!" Ruby crossed her arms as she bobbed her head "Uh huh, yeah."
The heavy raw guitar riff entered at around one minute and forty second. Not to mention the drums are going hard as well.
(You think you're spinning a web?! Look around you!)
AHAAAAAAHI
AYAYAYYYYYYY
"FUCK YEAH I LOVE THIS PART!" Yang yelled out. "Woaaaaaah! This is where Joseph was outsmarted but he outsmarted Esidisi's outsmarting-" Weiss paused as Ruby glanced at her, before resuming "You know what I'm talking about!"
"Never have I ever felt like a man!" Blake stated. Ruby posed like Wamuu while Yang flexed her toned muscular arms.
"So this is what testosterone sounds like if it had a leitmotif..." Blake mumbled.
The manly guitar ends, the booming bass drum got hit consecutively and thumped their hearts. "That's just Wamuu's sexy pecs flexing." Yang commented. "My heartbeat is following the drum!" Ruby exclaimed.
The last beat dropped as the original tune returned but with more percussions joining the fray, the team continued to jam out to it however.
"Yeah, yeah, come on, wut." Yang tried to sang along the limited vocals of the song.
A synth briefly appeared to signalize the end of the song before abruptly stopping.
"That was a blast!" Ruby yelled out in enthusiasm. "Alright, alright, lets hear my husband's theme." Yang requested. "Sure. Which one was it?" Blake asked. They all glanced at the first song on the list.
"Overdrive." Weiss read. "That's about right." The faunus replied.
Press.
"Oh damn it sounds like a suspenseful cop show." Yang commented. "Are you sure this was it?" Ruby asked. "Yes. I noticed that none of the other hamon users in Battle Tendency uses overdrive as an attack." Weiss answered. "Huh. Didn't notice that." Blake pondered. "Caesar... No, he used bubbles... But Lisa- nah she uses her scarf. Yeah you're right, Weiss." Ruby said.
I don't make promises cause it's meant to be broken...
"Ohh, we got some lyrics here." Ruby cheered. "And it's not tearjerking gibberish this time." Blake smiled. "It's not gibberish, it's Latin!" The heiress angrily replied. "Mmm, sexy." Yang purred.
My path is the only path I can take, you know it's chosen...
"Guys, this is the ultimate Joseph Joestar ASMR experience I can listen to this all day." Yang said. "Pffft, ASMR..." Blake giggled.
The lyrics stopped.
"Okay..." Yang mumbled but she and the rest were surprised by a percussion riff if that even makes sense before the main beat dropping.
COMING THROUGH COMING THROUGH COMING THROUGH NOW!
"OHHHH!" The blonde screamed. "It has legitimate lyrics!" Blake commented.
Watch where you're going, OVERDRIVE!
They were blown back as rap was heard along with the funky music. Certainly a good combination.
"Catchy!" Ruby smiled. "Ughh, it's as obnoxious as Joseph!" Weiss groaned yet she loved it.
"So was the singer supposed to be Joseph?" Blake asked. "In my headcanon, definitely!" Yang replied.
Losers terribly act, de facto,
What you don't possess it's not in stores,
I work my ass while you're in bed snore,
"HAHAHA! It's so corny!" Ruby laughed.
Turning dust to gold, HARDCORE.
Chorus.
"OHHHHHHH! MY BABY GOT BARS!" Yang screamed out at the top of her lungs as she jumped up and down. The rest didn't want to admit it, but they are enjoying it more than they let on. "Why are we standing?" Weiss asked. "TO PARTY!" Yang yelled as the chorus returned.
"Coming through, coming through- oh damnit!" Blake cussed, the repetetive chorus got her singing.
"No use fighting it, IT'S RAVEYARD BABYYY!" Ruby yelled as she grabbed the heiress' hands to dance "H-Hey!" Weiss did nothing to resist however.
Blake's eyes widened as Yang was suddenly wearing her shades and her orange scarf. "What do you think of my Lisa Lisa cosplay? Bet Joseph wanna see me naked now!" Yang boasted causing the faunus to smile.
"Lisa Lisa is his mot- YANG, HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING- YANG!" She yelped as the brawler grabbed her and dry humped her
"COMIN' THROUGH, COMIN' THROUGH NOW!"
Overdrive yeah that's what it is,
Coincidence? Nah that's what you live,
"We're enjoying ourselves way too much!" Weiss exclaimed. "Nothing wrong with that!" Ruby said.
The last chorus arrived as the instrumentals went nuts. Blake used her semblance to escape Yang's bearhug and retaliated by humping her herself. "Oh! You feisty ho!" The blonde smiled and laughed.
COMING THROUGH COMING THROUGH COMING THROUGH NOW! (x2)
Coming through coming through-
Shake it like it's heat, Overdrive!
COMING THROUGH COMING THROUGH COMING THROUGH NOW! (x2)
Coming through coming through-
Watch where you're going, OVERDRIVE!
"YAAAAHHH! THAT WAS FUCKING AWESOME!" Yang said. "Woo! That was kinda exhausting!" Ruby panted as she lets go of Weiss. "That's because you're one hyperactive kid! But yeah... That was groovy." Weiss panted as well as she sat down. "That was fun." Blake said with a goofy smile on her face.
"So the song was basically just says Joseph is cooler than you." Weiss crossed her arms. "Because he IS!" Yang said as she jumped down to the couch, she removed her shades and sighed.
Blake grabbed the remote "So, what's next?"
"Well, why stop here? Let's listen to the other Joestar themes." Yang smiled. "Ooooah! Now I'm curious! Blake, play your JoJo's theme!" Ruby demanded. "He is not..!" The faunus sighed but oblidged anyway.
Stardust Crusaders.
They didn't know what to expect. They had no idea what kind of person Jotaro is, they can only judge him by his outfit, which is edgy. So they assume that he was exactly like Blake much to the faunus' offense.
They are heavily mistaken.
The signature SDC guitar riff made itself known.
"Oooh, I like where this is going." Ruby smiled. "This is a beatdown music if I have ever heard one." Weiss commented. "I am about to fuck your shit up, the theme." Yang smacked her fists together. Blake said nothing.
Trumphets were heard, it sounded like a theme fitting for a cunning detective. "Mmm, so far so good!" Yang commented. The same tune intensified with the trumphet reigning supreme.
The beat thumped as a light guitar accompanied it for awhile.
Tenor sax solo.
"Ya like jazz?!" Yang joked. "That sounds relaxing to my eardrums!" Weiss claimed.
A distorted guitar replaced the sax.
"The guitarist has gone insane, I LOVE IT!" Ruby grinned, with This Will Be the Day being her favorite song, this was right up her alley.
The main tune returned, this time it's stronger. With violins backing up the guitar and trumphet. Instruments feeling their veins the urge to lay the smackdown on some bad guys.
"Ohhh ho!" Yang cheered. Blake meanwhile was silent, she is secretly getting riled up by the music, staring blankly at the handsome 17 year old man on the screen.
After that powerful chorus, the music introduced a piano who sounds like it's pianist was having a seizure, the team thought it adds to the charm. "What is going on?! This is insanity!" Ruby grinned, she was digging it.
(Please forgive me!)
The original bridge returned, this time followed by a tuba playing the same bridge.
(You should ask Enya for forgiveness, we don't have any plans on letting you go in the first place.)
The violin was playing a tune suggesting that something bizarre is going to happen next.
(You can't pay back what you owe...)
Then suddenly, the music stopped.
It's the build up.
(With goddamn money!)
"It's building up!" The leader said. "Ohhh! Wonder how this is gonna go?!" Yang yelled. Weiss meanwhile didn't like the heavy guitar but she definitely appreciated the other instruments.
The climax boomed through the speakers while you as a reader imagined a purple muscular tarzan on steroids going apeshit on a certain Pakistani guy.
"I WANNA BEAT SOMEONE UP!" Yang yelled as she raised her fists to the air. "YAH!" Ruby grunted as she smashed her sister with a pillow. The two then had a back and fort pillow fight.
"Blake, aren't you gonna say anythi-"
"Just a minute, Weiss. I'm envisioning myself as the ultimate protagonist of a book." Blake said as the chorus certainly did not fail in making the listeners feel like complete badasses.
Weiss herself didn't mind if this played while she was battling Grimms. She was clenching her fist subconciously.
The pace slowed down.
(Here's your receipt.)
"Awww it's over!" Yang whined, before getting smashed in the face with a pillow.
The original bridge returned, leaving them satisfied but wanting more. Blake stood up and walked towards the door.
"Where are you going?" Ruby asked.
"Nowhere, I just... Thought it would look really cool if I did a walk away at this part." The faunus sheepishly replied.
Stardust Crusaders OST, Fin.
"Absolute banger!" Yang commented with enthusiasm. "I didn't like it that much." Weiss commented. "What are you talking about, you're smiling!" Ruby pointed out. "I am?!" The heiress asked.
"She must have enjoyed it subconciously." The faunus deadpanned.
"How is that even possible?!"
Blake meanwhile, rolled her eyes towards Jotaro with a smirk. It definitely told her something about the next hero. And what can she say? She likes bad boys.
"What's the name again?! Oh my God, I swear I'm gonna download the themes! My eardrums were pleased!" Yang said as she typed it on her scroll.
"Stardust Crusaderrrs!" Ruby replied in a cocky tone. Blake pressed next to Josuke's playlist.
"Isn't it kind of weird that the following main themes were named after the part title?" Weiss asked, noticing that the main theme for Diamond is Unbreakable was called... well, Diamond is Unbreakable. "Now that you mentioned it, yeah. I guess they wanna make it simple?" Blake replied. "Who cares?! They are amazing!" The brawler interrupted.
"I care!" The heiress replied.
"Just play the thing!" Ruby yelled.
"Oooh, look at Ruby, she is excited to hear Exhibition A's theme." Yang teased.
Ruby puffed her cheeks, pouting.
BREAKDOWN! BREAKDOWN!
The sly bass established itself as it got the team's attention. "Will we get lyrics on this one, too?" Blake asked. "Oooooooweee!" Yang grinned.
BREAKDOWN! BREAKDOWN! LET'S ROCK OUT!
The drums entered and the bass got overshadowed by a guitar, stealing the bass' thunder.
"Alright! This is a feel good music." Yang cheered. "Hype!" Ruby yelled.
LET'S ROCK OUT!
The bass got it's thunder back.
A LITTLE MORE!
"That bass though." Weiss muttered. "Haha! That sounded like that other thing." Ruby snickered.
A minute in and a guitar solo was heard. Shredding like it's being played by someone who possessed Red Hot Chili Pepper.
"Mmm!" Yang closed her eyes and air guitared in sync with her sister. "Sounds cool. Sounds cool." Blake commented.
A LITTLE MORE!
WHAT'S GOING ON, WHAT'S GOING ON, RIGHT NOW!
The chorus was dominated by the piano, much to Weiss' delight. "Yes! Bring back the class!" She cheered as she air pianoed.
Blake's ear twitched, she gasped as she heard some remnants of Jotaro's theme.
But it quickly faded away to more piano and the earlier guitar. The two siblings obnoxiously rocked out in front of the screen.
The music slowed down it's pace as the piano from the chorus once again emerged.
"I'm loving it so far." Weiss commented in delight. "I love them all!" Ruby screamed.
The violin emerged with the piano and a fucking slide whistle appeared.
"Woah! What's that weird instrument?" Yang chuckled. "A slide whistle?" Blake answered. "I want one." Ruby whispered.
(You're right, it wouldn't be manly if I beat up an injured guy, that's why I healed you up. See?)
I love Morioh Cho, Morioh Cho heart (x2)
(Now it won't be unmanly.)
(Eh? EHH?!)
"It's building up, it's building up!" Yang giggled. "Morioh Cho... Huh." Ruby shrugged. The faunus tapped her fingers at the arm rest of the couch.
The piano returned but this time it was playing a mischievious melody. "Yeah! It's back!" Weiss cheered, it was her favorite instrument.
"Piano solooooo!" Ruby yelled. "And this one sounds more coordinated than the last one!" Yang said. "Yeah, the Stardust one sounded like epilepsy." Blake giggled.
The guitar and drum combination took charge once more, causing Ruby and Yang to return to their sick air guitar solo. "If only playing an instrument was that simple." Weiss sighed. "I'm feeling it." Blake commented.
The original chorus crept in. "Oh, here's my turn." Weiss laughed to herself as she continued her air piano. Blake bobbed her head like a bubble head as she got the feel of the tune. With parts of Jotaro's theme sneakily on the background, she is enjoying it even more.
"AWWW YEAH!" Yang cheered.
The piano and violin had one last duet for the chorus while a low note played the remnant of SDC's theme for a brief moment.
Breakdown! (x2)
Let's rock out.
And just like that, it's over.
"DAMN THIS SHOW, Did we even stumble upon a bad OST?! I think not!" Yang said. "That was absolutely fantastic! No way the next one can top that!" Ruby cheered. "So this one is your JoJo?" Blake asked with a smirk. "With that kind of soundtrack, YES." The leader replied enthusiastically. "You mean the band that sang Roundabout-" the faunus asked.
"I love, love, love the piano. It just adds some grace to the music." Weiss complimented. "Yeah the piano is good too, but did you hear THAT guitar?!" Yang asked.
"Okay guys, let's just have one last song. So we could finish Battle Tendency and call it a day." Blake said. "I'm torn between listening to more and wanting to know what happens next." Weiss pouts, she enjoyed the musical journey they're having.
They moved on to the next one.
"Uhh, Weiss? All of these are what's it's called." Yang muttered as they read the titles. "Ascencione, Canzero- I'm not even going to attempt pronouncing that." Ruby muttered. They read the various italian words in curiosity.
"Which one was this guy's theme?" Blake asked, referring to Giorno.
"Maybe the first one? So far, the first theme is the main theme." Weiss deadpanned. "Il vento d'oro." Ruby reads, she did not butcher the pronounciation this time.
"I gotta say, I wanna see how this one tops the others. I mean so far they are all fucking awesome, I'm kinda worried that we're having it too good and this one flops." Yang smiled.
"Here goes nothing." Blake said as she pressed the remote.
It started with a rusty sounding guitar I think, it plays very similar to Stardust Crusaders and Diamond is Unbreakable.
The team were silent, because of what Yang said, they didn't expect much from this.
A beat started slowly creeping in before getting to the real deal.
"What." Ruby flatly asked as the lyrics were unintelligible. "So there is a rap, so far the melody is nice. But I can't hear what he's saying." Weiss commented at the rather quiet voice bumbling stuff to their ears.
"I knew this is gonna blow!" Yang jeered. "Don't judge it too soon." Blake replied. "I can't even hear the lyrics how can you expect this to be good?" Yang asked in frustration.
The guitar and beat along with the lyrics seemed nice but the fact that they can barely hear the voice bothers them to some degree.
It's dangerous world,
JoJo!
The saxophone was the one leading. "Oh, that's a start." Weiss smiled.
Bucia-cia-ciaratti.
"Well, we didn't understand Propaganda yet we jammed to it so, yeah!" Yang disregarded her initial dislike for the song and just said fuck it and try to enjoy the music.
"It sounds... Like pizza." The faunus muttered, causing the blonde brawler to laugh "What?"
It's a dangerous world, JoJo!
The saxophone played high notes in it's bridge. "It sounds like something that would play in a pizza parlor." The faunus replied grumpily. "The way you phrased it sounded silly." Weiss cockily smiled.
"Oh, we're having a chorus!" Ruby said as a heads up.
They got stunned however as the choir suddenly made themselves known.
JOJO!
The cunning violin connected it to the next lyric.
GOLDEN WIND!
"OHHH! I WAS SO WRONG! THAT SOUNDS BEAST!" Yang exclaimed. Weiss and Blake glanced at eachother with a dumbfounded smile.
JOJO!
"JoJo! Tenenenenene-"
GOLDEN WIND!
"GROOOVY!" Yang stood up and started dancing.
The music returned to the rap however.
"I did NOT expect that." Weiss said. "Stand up, y'all!" Yang said as she clapped her hands. Weiss and Blake glanced at eachother before standing up and jamming to the song. Ruby however stayed on her seat just humming the song. It caught her off guard, it was really good but so far she was underwhelmed.
Saxophone solo, Yang bumped the other girls' hips, causing them to retaliate.
"It sounds so jazzy!" Blake chirped. "I thought it sounds like pizza?" Weiss teased. "Shut up." The faunus grinned.
The saxophone was going nuts, playing high and passionate. "Daaaaaaamn! Hear it purr!" Yang cheered as they kept jumping up and down "Come on, Ruby! It's party music!"
"Mmm, fine!" Ruby stood up and joined the three jumping stooges.
The saxophone was swiftly replaced by a guitar. "Ooh! Now we're talking!" The leader cheered as they jumped up and down.
The godly choir returned to shower their ears with its glorious voices.
"Yeah! Sounds like something heavenly!" Yang cheered.
The music returned to the original saxophone melody. "I wonder if we're gonna have another chorus?" Ruby asked. "Hopefully!" Weiss answered.
The final bridge towards the chorus appeared.
"We're gonna have another one, ladies! Get ready to scream JoJo!" Yang called as a heads up.
It's coming. They braced themselves.
"JO- huh?" Ruby asked as it wasn't the chant they were expecting. It was static. "What the hell?" Yang asked. "Ow..!" Blake covered all her ears. "What is going on with the-" the heiress got interrupted as her favorite instrument played.
PIANO.
Their mouths became wide open as they looked at eachother in amazement. "Oh my gosh..." Ruby whispered. "It sounds so lit..." Yang whispered as well. "I'm so lucky my hearing is enchanced..." the faunus muttered. "I'm going to study that note." Weiss declared quietly.
The beautiful music played, tickling their ears, it started building up with the violin. Beat thumping as it dramatically went more and more intense.
"Get ready girls..!" Yang muttered.
JOJO!
The trumphets, saxophone, violin and piano roared as the orchestra seemed like it grew a pair of buff ass arms and proceeded to beat the everlovingfuck out of their eardrums with it's godly music.
"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHH!" Yang screamed out as she continued jumping up and down in hype. Weiss sang along with the chant, the faunus kept repeating "Yes!"
GOLDEN WIND!
The instruments requiem rebounded as it prepared for another round. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGHHHHH!" Yang raised her arms up and screamed to the ceiling.
Zwei even emerged from under the bed and started barking in sync with the music.
Ruby meanwhile, was silent. She was biting her nail, flusterred, looking at the picture of the smirking boy on the screen. Her face was red for some reason.
JOJO!
Weiss headbanged, her white hair flowing up and down as if she was a heavy metal vocalist as Blake clapped her hands at every beat, having the time of her life.
GOLDEN WIND!
The music finally slowed it's pace down.
The guitar returned to smoothly calm the music down, the rap also returned but the girls were panting heavily.
Il vento d'oro, Fin.
The room was silent for awhile.
"THAT WAS SO FUCKING AWESOME! OH MY GOD!" Yang yelled out suddenly breaking the ice. "The violin! The trumphet! The sax! And the piano, oh my gosh, THAT WAS WONDERFUL!" Weiss clapped as she gushed out. "I'd grew an extra finger just to rate it with my hands, 11/10!" The faunus cheered. "Awesome..!" Ruby squeaked.
"That song is a godsent! It definitely works as a... Hmm..." Yang trailed off. "A comeback music." Weiss crossed her arms proudly. "Yeah!" The blonde agreed. "I can imagine being on thin ice then scoring a victory once that sick piano plays!" The faunus stated. "Yeah... It was so cool. I wanna download it." Ruby smiled. Blake wrapped an arm around her leader "Did you change your mind about your JoJo, now?" She asked.
"N-No comment." Ruby rolled her eyes nervously.
"Well! I guess I can say we ended that session on a high note, eh? Eh?" Yang and her shitty pun. "Ughh... Anyways, we better get back on track and see how they're gonna deal with the Ultimate Lifeform." Weiss said. "Did the mask even worked?" Ruby asked. "Knowing this show, it probably did." Blake pressed the remote.
As they patiently wait, the leader found herself humming the last theme she listened to.
I AM SORRY, I AM BIASED, OKAY?! Come on, il vento was great that's why it's overrated in the first place. So I hope you enjoyed reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it. And since we're on quarantine, maybe jam out to your favorite JoJo themes too. If this received alot of feedback I may either do it with the boys listening to RWBY OST or a Part 2 where the girls listen to the other under the radar gems. Stay safe and I'll see you in the next one.
