Impersonating an Aeon Among the Stars.

Prologue

Boredom tends to get the best of us. Or worst in this instance.

Seeing as how he has nothing better to do, this idiot decided to ask some friends what he should do.

As a joke he mentioned impersonating an Aeon.

Moral of the story is, don't joke.

"I honestly expected you to be gargantuan, I'm talking the size of a universe or something."

"..."

"Like I expected more ya know? Your The Nanook. Aeon of Destruction? Greatest alleged villain in this verse? Ring any bells?"

"..."

"... Can I get a response or something? The strong silent act may work on gals, but unfortunately for you I am very straight and not looking for a guy to date. Except Fujimaru, I've seen him in a dress. Fits my type to a tee."

"What do you want?"

"So you can speak! That makes this exchange so much smoother now!"

For some context for those unaware of what is happening. Let me provide it.

You see, Zechariah, also known as DJ, or he of many names, made a passing joke.

When given the green light, he shrugged his shoulders and said 'fuck it we ball'.

What was the joke you ask?

To impersonate Nanook, Aeon of Destruction.

And then go to the Star Rail universe to see what would happen.

Of course if one were to look at DJ's face, despite his almost polite tone, he seemed about done with the conversation.

And to further illustrate this point, he grabbed Nanook by the shoulders before lifting him off his throne, and tossing him into the air. Golden Chains erupted from DJ's feet and wrapped around Nanook binding him. A fact, the Aeon seemed unbothered by.

"Do I care to inquire on what's happening?"

"Your status as an Aeon has been temporarily taken over, go hang out with Zero or something. Odds are he can give you tips on how to do your job better. What with being a destroyer himself."

Nanook tested his chains by tugging on them a few times.

"Who is this Zero you speak of?"

"Hmm... He's a hedonist, a sarcastic asshole, a bit lacking in empathy, and an all around unknown. He's also the technical person holding reality together, but we don't talk about that.

If I had to describe him in one sentence though... He's my friend. My brother in a sense. Not that I'll admit it, he already has a big enough ego as it stands."

"That so? Well seeing as how I can't do anything as of the moment, I'll be at the mercy of your whims."

And with those final words, Nanook was sent away bound and rather unresistant.

"The fact he could have escaped at any point is rather intriguing. He must have secretly wanted a break in all honesty. Not my problem. Now I have to figure out where to show up at..."

Tapping his chin in thought, DJ turned around and begin walkng away, instinctually opening a rift that he soon stepped through himself.
