♔ — time had a funny way of blurring into monotonous days, each the same as the last, centuries passing in the blink of an eye. stars dissolving from entropy, gravity pulling the pieces back together into suns that had no memory of their previous lives, each still yet a blip in the face of the universe. if something so grand could unmake itself and still be forgotten in the grand scheme of things... then he most certainly had no chance.
he envied the stars. at least when they got unmade, they knew nothing of the power they once held.
at least this body didn't feel as strange as it did when he was first shoved into it, muscles and sinew no longer screaming under the ache of holding something that wanted to burst out, rage and power turning on their prison. he had since come to understand that destroying his new vessel would prove to be more disastrous than beneficial - he would stay within it looking for means of escape, but until that moment there was no reason to preemptively burn all his bridges. it still felt awkward, bursting at the seems at times when the power it tried to contain overflowed, but beyond that it served its purpose... satisfyingly.
large paws had carried him past the railroad, so unused to groups at this point that the change of scent meant little to him, so caught up in his own thoughts that it barely registered. groups never did mean much to him anyways... this wouldn't be the first time he forgot that the creatures inhabiting the many mortal dimensions held particular regard for their little alliances. it wasn't until he heard footsteps, ears perking up and large form pausing, that the realization dawned on him, brows furrowing slightly. someone was coming, and they likely weren't happy... and that meant he was likely already going to be off to a wrong foot when he struggled so much already with getting on people's good sides on better terms.
