## Notable JolyMes Moments

Jolyne first meets Ermes as she rants about wanting to disappear in her cell after getting caught masturbating by the prison guard. Though Ermes finds this ridiculous and pokes at her on multiple occasions, she still defends Jolyne when her other cellmates bother her.

Ermes: "How low were your panties?"

Jolyne: "Man. you're really getting after me."

Random Crusty Prisoner: "Man, how can you get turned on by those bars?"

Ermes: "Shut it, snotface! As if you've never done it before."

Ermes seems to have peaked an interest for Jolyne after this situation, calling her an "interesting one".

Later, the two meet again on a police van riding their way towards Green Dolphin Street State Prison. Ermes questions Jolyne's innonence, to which Jolyne responds with by saying the trail will clear her name and that she will not go to prison.

Jolyne hears the driver explain that they will arrive in ten minute, to which Ermes is confused by due to the fact that you're unable to hear from the driver's seat.

Ermes: "How did you know? Is this another divination of yours?"

Jolyne: "Yes, it's strange, isn't it? I'm not sure either."

Ermes: "You sure are a funny one. I'm Ermes Costello. I robbed a gas station. It's my second time, so I'll be sentenced without a doubt."

Jolyne: "...Nice to meet you, Ermes."

To prepare Jolyne for prison, Ermes asks her if she has any money on her, warning that if she doesn't she might end up dead.

Ermes: "If you don't have any on you now, make sure to have someone bring them to you at a visitation."

Jolyne: "And you're assuming I'll be thrown in because?"

Ermes: "Just giving you heads up."

Jolyne: "As if you've got cash yourself. The guards would've found it at the body search."

Ermes: "How naive , Jolyne. There are tons of ways to smuggle it in."

Jolyne: "You mean like sticking it up your ass or the other hole? Gross! I thought that was only in the movies!"

Ermes: "Dumbass, that's the first place they inspect."

Jolyne: "Then where? Don't tell me they're in your boobs. You slid some cash in with sillicone implants?...... NO way! I was kidding!"

Ermes: "Jeez, you got me."

The guards then tell Jolyne and some other inmate to exit the van, to which he tells Ermes that this is not her stop, and that she must stay.

Jolyne is able to hear the guards interactions with Ermes, to which she seems startled by. The guard suspects that Ermes is attempting to smuggle in cash, and Ermes is punched in the stomach.

This causes Joylne's Stone Free to activate, which is where we first see its first official appearance. Ermes is continuously abused and bullied by the guards, to the point where she admits that she smuggled in cash and brings it out of her headband. Even so, she is repeadtly abused by them even more, and is bodyslammed multiple times.

Stone Free's string follows the van, and when Ermes is about to have her breasts searched for money and hit by a baton on the head, the string stops the baton from hitting her and cuts off the guard's ear.

Even after saving Ermes, Jolyne is still confused and startled by the situation.

## Why People Ship It

Most people ship it for their dynamic of two badass women who fight together and stay together. Some like it for the JoJo + JoBro pairings like JosuYasu, JotaKak, and BruGio. Though it can be argued that Foo Fighters is the JoBro, JolyMes is still far more popular due to the fact that Jolyne and Ermes are both actually human.
