Happy Birthday Aster

Who: Shion, Aster and anyone! Mingle among yourselves!
What: It's Aster's birthday. Any and all friends are welcome (and if you don't know them you are still welcome, they won't turn anyone away)
Where: The southern beach on Islet four.
Warnings: Hopefully none

Aster's birthday was important. A date she had chosen herself, a date to celebrate her and everything she had achieved so far.

The last time they had celebrated had been in the tower and now they were in a completely different world with different friends and Shion was determined for it to be a nice day.

He had had help. Ignis had helped cook of course. Shion heavily suspected the candied fruits were from Dagger and he had no idea how exactly Connor had managed it (and he wasn't going to ask) but Laurent had provided ice for sea salt ice cream.

There's a fire on the beach and fish on sticks to roast. Guests may have to wrestle off an overexcited Dreaeater but Shion tries to keep Excalibur under control for the most part. Cobweb and Thalassa are a lot more calm, flopping down near friends to demand pets.

Shion keeps an eye on Aster, hoping she is having fun.

"That'd be crazy. Finding out we're all sitting out here, while millions of people are walking around just over the horizon."

He leaned his head back, gazing up curiously at the sky. "On this world? Yeah. I'd be a bit worried about who might be out there. I think I'd like to get settled before we deal with anything like that."

"Wonder if they'd even know what was going on. It seems like everywhere we've been have had gods. Wonder if some giant continent would need some giant god, or if it'd just be some normal place that would think our situation is completely unbelievable."

As he tried to imagine the perspective of people living on another land, another thought came to him. "What if this is some sort of world that's like, mostly gods? Or all gods? I mean, it seems like we find gods more than people, almost. It's weird."

"Dunno. I don't see why a god would need all that stuff, but gods are kinda weird and fickle. Seemed kinda like stuff humans would do, though? If a god was doing it just because, it might be a little weird to copy humans so closely."

As far as he saw. He saw no use that a god would have for any of it.

"Then again, I guess it's probably like home. Like, some gods probably like humans and some probably hate them, and some will probably try to help and some will try to kill us?"

"Yeah. Titan, Ramuh, Shiva, Leviathan, Bahamut and Ifrit. They're kinda like... a part of the planet or something. They, uh, can definitely be seen by humans."

Thinking back, he tried to imagine someone not noticing Leviathan towering above Altissia. Missing her would be like not noticing your arm was gone.

"I think there's similarities to gods here, but I don't know much about what gods would be like on other worlds. They don't usually appear to people, though. They have messengers."

"Yeah, but they don't really speak 'human'. Usually. And I guess it's probably like how a king will have dudes working for him, too. Gentiana was a messenger, for example! She spent a lot of time around Noct's fiancée, and probably brought messages back and forth."

Or so he assumed. He wasn't there. "We've seen her a few times. But, then, we went and saw Titan up close and personal, and I have no idea what he said. Noct seemed to get a message, though."

"Messengers were kinda divine? Most the time. Like, they'd be blessed by the gods at least I'd assume. Maybe like a lesser god, but I never really thought of them as gods exactly?"

Though it had been his religion, he hadn't been much of a zealot, and certainly didn't have the knowledge or connection that Noct and the others group up with. He'd been an average citizen who hadn't seen anything as far as he knew. Of course, he had no idea a certain puppy he'd met was a divine being.

"Iggy has studied this kind of stuff. He'd know a lot more details than I do. I mean, he was close to the king and Noct his whole life."

He nodded with a smirk.

"Sure. Has Aster been having fun?" He shoved the last bit he had on his stick into his mouth, and shoved it to the side a bit. "B-T-W, I never asked 'bout your names. How come she decided to change to Aster?"
