Jotaro walked forward, shaking his head. This place was full of surprises, but what kind of real creature would actually look like that? It had to have been something on wheels. Though, In truth, Jotaro was about to stop time and clean up, but it seemed as if the group had managed to finish the enemy off before he could get a lick in. At least his allies were reliable, right?
Especially that Aoko. That ability is above and beyond any stand Jotaro had come across. On top of that, could move in stopped time - something that JoJo had yet to ask her about. It's best not to think what would happen if she ever decided to go rogue; it'd be interesting, at least.
If the group began to move again, Jotaro would dig his hands into his coat and walk next to Aoko. He'd speak while looking straight ahead as he walked.

"So."
"How are you able to move in stopped time?"
"Mmm? Well. A magician never reveals her secrets," Aoko initially responded coyly to Jotaro with her usual laid-back smile, as though it were of no consequence that she wasn't bound to the rules of the time axis. Still, she figured that the younger man was owed at least some sort of explanation. After all, if she wanted to keep her power a complete secret and mystery to others, she would have let herself be frozen along with everyone else, and yet, she didn't. Even Aoko herself wondered why she did it, to an extent. Perhaps it was because it was the first time in quite a while that she'd spent any time with other extraordinary people that she felt inclined to share in on the fun of being something more than human. Something beyond.
Of course, if she'd word it like that, she'd sound like Touko, and that'd be rather troublesome.
"If you really wanna know... Well, it's a long story, and I'd really rather not bore you with all the finer details, else we'd be here all day. But let's just say... from where I come from, there's mages, and then there's a magician. And I'm... one of five of them in the whole wide world," she began, placing her free hand on her hip, "No one can really explain my magic's domain, but... Well, it's related to time... is the broad way of putting it. I'm not exactly bound to time the same way people are. I'm like a loose tooth in a sense; there, but not there. My sister always said stuff like how I'm connected to the root of the world, the beginning and the end, and stuff like that, but I always just thought she was being a little overdramatic," Aoko laughed lightly.
"I suppose to be fair, when I can move time around like the pieces on a jigsaw puzzle on my whim, it tends to scare a lot of people," the redhead continued, as though intending to put her words lightly, casually making such statements as though not even thinking much of how ridiculously powerful she made herself sound, if only perhaps because the more she talked, the more rational it would all sound.
"Freezing time is probably the one thing I can't do, but what I can do... Well. Maybe later. You've already shown yours, so just give me some more time, and maybe, just maybe, I'll show you mine."
