[Carlos sets aside a few mental notes: one, to talk to Giorno about this whole resurrection business, and two, to figure out exactly the nature of death as he personally percieved it all those years ago. Also, three, remember to put some water on the stove for pasta, but that can wait until the science has concluded, as science takes precedence over everything else.
He steels himself yet again, forcing a smile.]
So, Bruno--can I call you Bruno? Um, anyways, how long has your Stand been...present?
Bruno is fine, [he acknowledges with a small nod. Bruno's never been picky about what people address him as, having always left it as a choice to the person addressing him.] Sticky Fingers has been with me since I was around 12 years old. I can't give you a more exact time than that.
I see. Was there anything to trigger his appearance, or was it wholly random? From what I've heard, there can sometimes be extenuating circumstances that trigger this ability.
[You know, like getting shot with a Stone Arrow. Stuff like that, totally arbitrary.]
Sticky Fingers didn't take a form until after Polpo had me take his test to prove I could survive in Passione.
[It might not be fair to assume that Giorno mentioned the test to Carlos, but he doesn't see why it wouldn't have come up at some point if he knows to ask about the various ways in which Sticky Fingers could have come into being.]
I think he's always been there to some extent though.
[Yeah, at some point, he just has to admit he doesn't know much about...well, anything regarding typical Stands. Sure, he's done a fair amount of research, but this isn't something that's come up in any of his interviews. Giorno never talked about it, anyways.]
Can you go a little more in detail about this...test? Passione's your, ah, employer, right?
[Should he say former? Is that polite? He's unsure about his death etiquette.]
Oh, has Giorno never explained how he joined Passione or its structure to you before?
[Bruno seems genuinely surprised by this. He'd think that would have come up at some point, but then again, it's best to leave much of what Passione used to be in the past where it belongs.]

I'm just trying to see if there's any patterns.
