Kakavasha wasn't exactly sure how or why it happened but he apparently has the aeons (YES. THE AEONS) following him around and travelling with him ever since he woke up from the deep dream in the world of festivities, Penacony, far, far away from where he was supposed to be.
……… Well, you see…
Kakavasha woke up in who fucking knows where and he nearly passed out again when he registered who was peering down on him. The aeon of Elation was peering down at him with… actually Kakavasha doesn't think that's THEIR face but rather a mask but THEY do have a grin on THEIR face.
Or was that another mask…
Kakavasha wouldn't know because WHO KNOWS HOW AHA OF THE ELATION LOOKS LIKE WITHOUT THEIR MASK!!!
CERTAINLY NOT KAKAVASHA!!!
Dear Mother Goddess, have you forsaken your only child of luck? Kakavasha thought to himself in a rather hysterical manner because what in the name of Mother Gaiathra IS THIS??
IS THAT THE AMBER LORD THEMSELVES OVER THERE????????? Kakavasha scream in his mind as he stared at fucking QILIPOTH THEMSELVES, hovering over the ground, not far away from him.
“Hmm,” (IS THAT NANOOK OF THE DESTRUCTION?????? Kakavasha screamed in his mind as he stared at) Nanook who looked at him with a bored look on THEIR face. “This mortal is awake now,” THEY said with a bored voice.
“Indeed,” (MOTHER GODDESS, WHAT IN THE NAME OF SIGONIA IS THIS??? BECAUSE IS THAT) Xipe said with a gentle smile on THEIR face as THEY walked over to Kakavasha, cooing at him while Kakavasha make an excellent imitation of a gaping fish because WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE!?
“IS THAT AN MECHANICAL EYEBALL???” Kakavasha shouted, gawking at the probably mechanical eyeball floating around not that far away from him and next to…
Kakavasha took a deep breath and squinted and tried not to scream because LAN THE HUNT AND YAOSHI THE ABUNDANCE ARE NEXT TO EACH OTHER AND THEY ARE NOT MAIMING EACH OTHER.
Oh mother goddess, do you fucking hate me now? Kakavasha thought to himself blankly because why the HELL IS HE SURROUNDED BY THE AEONS????? The mother goddess probably threw whatever this is at him as punishment, didn't she?
Xipe was still cooing over him before THEY smiled at him and Kakavasha… just stared at THEM… blankly. Like just stared at THEM because WHAT THE FUCK IS HE SUPPOSED TO SAY TO THEM? So um. That kid of yours, who, for some reason, was named Sunday, put the “HARM” in harmony to use and caused him an ungodly amount of pain in his head—
Wait a second. Is that why he's seeing things?
Hold on. Didn't Acheron say she removed the brand of harmony off of him when she slash him during that fight?
“He looks pale. Is he okay?” Qilipoth asked as the amber lord floats…? fly?? Kakavasha doesn't fucking know, over to him and Kakavasha thinks THEY looked at him in concern…? Maybe???
“Oh, don't worry about me,” Kakavasha hear himself talk in a very high pitch voice that's filled with nothing but hysterical, “I'm just wondering why the fuck am I surrounded not one, not two but— oh my god, is that IX????????” Kakavasha screeched as a blob of black hole popped out of nowhere and now stared at him with what Kakavasha assumed was concern.
“Wow. I really did went insane,” Kakavasha said with a smile that he forced himself to wear because what the fuck.
WHAT THE FUCK DID HE GET HIMSELF INTO?
Nanook just stared at him and Kakavasha wasn't going to lie, but THEY are fucking hot. But he won't say that since he actually wants to live another day, thank you very much. “You looked like you regret waking up.” THEY pointed out as THEY watch Kakavasha fighting the urge to simply just die right then and there.
Kakavasha switched from whatever smile that was to a charming smile and immediately… why did he flirts with the Aeon of Destruction, he does not know. “Why, I merely regretting not meeting someone as gorgeous and good looking as yourself in my life,” Kakavasha flirts while screaming internally and begging Nanook to not fucking kill him for flirting with THEM.
Thankfully, Nanook just looked amused at his behaviour while everyone else stared at him. Kakavasha just maintains his smile and starts counting the amount of aeons that's currently present right now.
Yaoshi of The Abundance, check.
Nanook of The Destruction, check.
Qilipoth of The Preservation, check.
Xipe of The Harmony, check.
Lan of The Hunt, check.
IX of The Nihilty, check.
Kakavasha squint at the mechanical eyeball who stared back at him, offended.
…… Nous of The Erudition, check.
Kakavasha just inhaled, then exhaled…
Then he screamed because hey! Might as well! Who cares if he embarrassed himself! He's as dead as the fucking stone anyway!
“WHY AM I SURROUNDED BY SEVEN AEONS LIKE WHAT DID I DO?????”
Anyway, Kakavasha having a fucking breakdown about his weird predicament aside, he does immediately plan what to do since the aeons brought him away from Penacony and apparently, Nanook and Aha (what a bizarre duo) fake his death so now he's free from the IPC.
“What do I do now?” Kakavasha wondered after he changed out of his clothes to a more comfortable and loose fitting clothes (that apparently Xipe and Yaoshi picked for him), sitting on the ground as he think about his next move, ignoring the war zone that was Lan and Yaoshi's fight while Aha aggravated them even more. Nanook was snoozing on a tree somewhere, IX was making THEMselves comfortable next to him while Xipe tried to stop the fight between Lan and Yaoshi. Kakavasha moved his gaze to look at Nous who was doing something, then to Qilipoth who was hovering protectively around him.
“You could start a new life,” Qilipoth suggested.
Kakavasha tried so hard to not go, “well yeah. What else am I supposed to do? Die?” At the aeon because the amber lord would fucking snipe him for being rude to THEM.
Kakavasha paused. Well maybe. I'm pretty sure the amber lord wouldn't mind it… Kakavasha looked at Qilipoth once more, then sagely nodded his head, ignoring the questioning look from THEM. Yeah. Probably not. Kakavasha thought to himself before he went back to scheming his next move because dear Mother Goddess, what the actual fuck is he supposed to do now?
Then another line of thought hit him.
“Oh shit. I don't have any money on me,” he said before face palming because great. That's another problem because how the fuck is he supposed to do this and where do he even start? Fuck this shit. “Can one of you give me a new identity? Like forge that shit, please? I really don't want to deal with this,” he moaned as he flopped on the ground and started staring at the skies.
Nous glanced at him and next thing Kakavasha knew, he had a whole new identity (well not really since he used his real name) and legal documents. Kakavasha stared at Nous, “Why am I keeping my birth name?” He asked with a deadpan look on his face because seriously. Why? Like yeah sure “Kakavasha Kaveh” sounds nice and all but what the hell?
“Hmmp.” Nous scoff and refuse to say anything else.
Aha popped out of nowhere and said, “Why not Haikaveh? He looks like their child!” THEY said before giggling maniacally as Kakavasha stared at THEM questioningly because WHAT DOES THAT MEAN AND WHO ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT?????
Nous stared at THEIR fellow aeon and nodded THEIR head.
Kakavasha just stared at them, questioning what the hell just happen and what the fuck he just get himself into.
Few months into his travel, with the aeons tagging along mind you, Kakavasha doesn't know what to do besides just be a traveller, hopping from one world to another and kinda just chilling because damn. This is fun. Maybe this is how trailblazing feels like too. Damn. Maybe he should join the Astral Express or The Nameless if he ever runs into any of its members.
Maybe.
Travelling with the aeons isn't as bad though. Lik sure, there's going to be a lot of disagreement (from Lan and Yaoshi because go fucking figure why that's a thing) and just chaos (because Aha is here with them) but it's all in all, quite an experience. If he doesn't know anything or understand anything, Nous would explain them to him.
Assuming if THEY are in a good mood that is.
