Then Aetura's Comments

THEN FOR NANDO--

Then knows almost everything about Nando--except for what he's been up to in the last few years since his resurrection. The fact Nando, a seemingly insignificant vampire, had his timeline altered to give him life again just before a Reaper would have reclaimed his soul makes Nando a particularly interesting individual to Then.

It also helps that Nando is the child of a very significant being in the universe by the name of Iniquitous, and especially that Nando has managed to help, befriend, and infatuate Then's brother, Now.

Between Nando's dorky behaviour, love of flowers, and overall protective stubbornness, Then might ship the vampire with his brother. He would admit this, too.

THEN FOR ARCANA--

Arcana is an interesting case of Chaos's influence on the Universe. You see, if Arcana had not met one of the God of Chaos's creations, Arcana's soul would have been eaten by a certain devourer of insidious souls. One little encounter altered the timeline enough to spare Arcana being wiped from existence.

This, by default, makes Arcana someone Then has a good deal of curiosity towards, even ignoring Arcana's involvement with Then's family and engagement to the chaotic devil that saved him. Then is curious to observe what becomes of the dragon.

ARCANA FOR THEN--

Arcana knows that Then knows everything about his life. That is intimidating, and Then's power is intimidating.

Aside from that, though, Then seems to be a fairly mellow creature, and is on vacation.

THEN FOR RAD--

Rad is the mortal that started it all. If Then had not felt the need to alter the past to spare him the consequences of meeting Cycle Gods, Rad would not have come to meet Uni later on, Elcycinu and Dharnizta would never have existed, and it's doubtful Then would have ever gotten much further involved with the likes of the little circus troupe.

It's probably needless to say, but Then finds Rad and his ties with the little troupe of Cycle Gods to be particularly interesting. He is incredibly curious to see what further becomes of the Eteyali, but sometimes...

Sometimes Then can't help but feel that perhaps the chaos that ensued from saving Rad may have been a mistake.

RAD FOR THEN--

Then is intimidating, and Rad does not personally know him. Uni finds him creepy, so Rad has little desire to interact with the powerful god.

Being as significant as he is, however, is overwhelming. He never would have imagined saving the life of one lone mortal could cause such a massive chaotic ripple.

THEN FOR VISHI--

The two have never met, but Then pities Bhavishi's tiny human lifespan immensely and is incredibly fascinated by her mere existence. He would like to speak with her personally one day, but respects that humans are nervous creatures and that he is not always the most tactful in conversation.

THEN FOR CAL--

Of all the little human doppelgängers Then is aware of, Calanthe is, perhaps, the most worrisome of the bunch. They're perhaps a bit too much like Elcycinu for a mere human, what with their brash mouth and reckless behaviours.

Then is very curious about Cal and would like the chance to meet the doppelgänger of his creation... while they're still around to meet.

THEN FOR INI--

Iniquitous is one of the most powerful and important beings around, and has provided a tremendous amount of help to Then's children, so it goes without saying that Then finds him incredibly fascinating. Iniquitous also is the rambly sort of individual Then would enjoy spending time with, so that's good, too.

THEN FOR MATYL--

Matylda is a darling little human resembling Then's first creation and eldest child. Perhaps... too closely resembling her, even.

Then feels badly for rambling on so much in the company of this little one, as he only wishes for the best for her. He does worry about Matyl's short lifespan, though, and hopes to not become too attached to her (but it's probably too late given how familiar she feels).

THEN FOR PANEO--

Then is shocked to know a lot of this doppelgänger business, and Paneo is an interesting case. Paneo is remarkably like Then's brother, and Now is perhaps Then's closest and dearest friend, so to meet an individual so directly connected to Now but that is merely a mortal human is incredibly fascinating and ... disappointing. Then would like to get to know the doppelgänger of his brother better, but understands why a human would be anxious of him (many gods are!), and should probably not be going and getting attached to such short-lived beings anyhow. It's probably too late for the last part, though.

PANEO FOR THEN--

Paneo is very overwhelmed by a lot of this business, and by the fact that he and his sibling's alternate universe counterparts are not only deities, but some of the MOST POWERFUL and important deities to exist. That's very contrary to how Paneo and Vishi are in the scheme of things! And it's intimidating as heck, not to mention. At any rate, it's very curious how alike Then is to his sibling, even if there are phenomenal differences.

THEN FOR NOW-

(July 10th, 2017):

There is no one else in (or out of) the universe whom Then is as close to as his brother and fellow time-keeper, Now. They have been together from the moment they were created, and Then would go so far as to risk his own well-being for the sake of his dear twin (and has done so in the past).

Though they can certainly both be a source of stress and annoyance for each other, Then loves Now very dearly. Then is liable to become anxious if he is separated from Now for extended periods of time after having him for the only company around for so many eons in a void.

Then can be a bit more meddlesome than is perhaps desired, but he tries his best to encourage Now to have a social life outside of just Then. Then considers it his personal responsibility to look after Now's fussy self, and constantly fears for what will happen if some his actions in the past lead to him being erased, leaving Now behind.
