Arthit should have known something is wrong with the universe when he wakes up to a talking kitten with angel wings on his chest, though the kitten is so small that it actually looks like a rodent.His first instinct tells him to squash the thing he thinks is a rodent, but on second thought, he just rolls over and goes back to sleep, somehow assuming that the strange creature is just a bizarre dream caused by his marathon of Cardcaptor Sakura episodes the night before.
"B-but Arthit! Wake up! The world— no, the universe! The universe needs you right now!"
"Shut up!" Arthit mumbles into his pillow, swatting the winged kitten away.
The poor creature falls on its back after a failed attempt at tugging Arthit's hair to wake him up. He huffs and puffs his little cheeks, mumbling a strange incantation that resulted in Arthit's pillow being transformed into cherry blossom petals.
"What the hell?! Come here, you little rat with wings!" Arthit falls out of his bed during his attempt to capture the magical being.
The kitten sighs in disappointment. "My name is Kongpob, and I'm a lion, not a 'rat with wings!' Hmph!"
Arthit groans from his position on the floor. "What the hell do you want from me?!"
Kongpob circles around Arthit's head before landing on the ground with surprising grace for a kitten. He stretches his paws wide. There's a look of utter urgency on his face.
"There's great evil coming! And you, Arthit Rojnapat, are the true possessor of the one weapon that can take down the evil forces that is bent on taking over the universe..." He stretches his stubby forelegs wide. "...The Radiant Staff of Pure Love and Justice!'"
It takes Arthit a couple of seconds to absorb the information.
"The WHAT?"
Kongpob takes his formation again, stretching his paws up. "The Radiant Staff—"
"Nah, I won't do it. Go find some other poor bastard that will be your hero. I think Bright's free."
"No! This is prophesied! You, and only you, can do this!"
Kongpob flies around in circles, frantically reciting the rules that magical heroes must follow and that Bright would surely break. After exhausting himself, he flops down on top of Arthit'shead, crossing his short forelegs on his chest. "Besides, Bright would probably accidentally blow up the universe, somehow."
Arthit sighs. "How about Prem?"
Kongpob flies again in front of Arthit.
"Not him. He'll probably find a way to blow up the universe," Kongpob tells him. When he notices Arthit's dumbfounded look, he waves the topic aside with a casual explanation. "We've been observing that one."
Arthit confirms his friend is up to no good. "And if I continue to refuse?"
"The Supreme King of the Cosmic Universe will roast me for dinner!"
"And that's my problem, how...?"
"Arthit Rojnapat, just say 'sun prism power, activate,' and go save the universe already!"
"Fuck my life."
Bonus scene:
"Why the fuck is my costume hot pink?!
Why do cherry blossom petals follow me wherever I go?!!
Do I really have to ride this stick with wings?!!
What's with this stupid bejeweled crown?!!
And why is Tutah videotaping—goddammit!!!!"
