[ perhaps 'warned' is too strong of a word, but can he be blamed? he certainly didn't think the guy who warned him was doing it out of malice. giorno purses his lips, and then replies, rather carefully, ]
One of our own. [ a broodmate. ] But it was more in the lines of "do not bother" as opposed to anything potentially life-threatening. I didn't think he meant any harm.
[ on the other hand, this talk of becoming an accidental superhero is ... inconceivable to giorno, who has planned the rest of his life to a T. how does one accept that kind of responsibility without having planned their entire lives around it? he doesn't understand, it sounds absurd. it sounds like the kind of thing that happens to other people that leads them to be folded into a grander plan that is beyond their conception .... from people like giorno, who are always cataloguing others as to how useful they can be to his dreams.
people who have lost something or someone are the easiest to convince to fight, giorno thinks, because they are the ones who have a lot more to lose. on the other hand, there are those who make it their business to put their pride and ambition above everyone else, and giorno has certainly fought his share of those guys, and how they fit in the nest along with the rest of the brood remains to be seen. ]
You are lucky, then, in that you fit that kind of life compared to others.
I imagine the amount of pressure in dealing with .... other superhumans, as well as coordinating with governments in order to carry out missions .... that can be quite troublesome, right? Though I suppose, in carrying the title, one gets to have a few exceptions in case of emergencies.
But you must have lots of kids looking up to you. If I were a child and I knew superheroes were real, that'd make a difference to me growing up.
