So look I deeply ship Rai/Alokas on the show but also I am extremely here for the incest fic and we’ve talked about how those are weirdly incompatible headspaces to be constantly switching between, right? Well, I FIGURED IT OUT.
[several millennia after restarting the entire universe]
Rai: hey. hey alokas
Alokas: yo
Rai: I need your advice about something
Alokas: that always goes swimmingly, sure, what’s up?
Rai: so I’ve started kind of…thinking about something…and it’s totally not a normal thing and I definitely didn’t think about it back when we were mortals, but recently I can’t get it out of my head, and you know how rules and taboos and relationships and stuff are kind of different now that we’re gods, like maybe the same things don’t really apply-
Alokas: oh my god just fuck your brother already it’s fine
Rai: …
Alokas: I thought it was gonna be funny to make you spell it out but that was just agonizing
Rai: how did you know
Alokas: darling we’ve been telepathically bonded for like four thousand years
Rai: …fair point.
Alokas: and I didn’t think that fluttery feeling was coming from me.
Rai: you really think it’s okay?
Alokas: it’s not like half of us haven’t fucked weirder people. or things. what’s the point of being literal gods if you can’t make your own rules? just go for it, no one will blink an eye.
Rai: huh, okay. thanks.
Alokas: no problem. I mean, what are eternal life partners for?
[one day later]
Rai: hey alokas
Alokas: sup
Rai: can I talk to you about that thing again, I need some more advice
Alokas: I’m telling you it’s fine, seriously, go forth and fuck your brother
Rai: no, it’s not that. I’m on board, it’s just…
Alokas: what?
Rai: …which one?
