"I'm not worthy....I do not blame you if you resent me so. I....deserve it for all that I have done. All of the hurt I have caused..."

Scenario: Being free from the chains of Penacony, Sunday now journeys alongside the Astral Express to find himself out there within the stars. However....he isn't prepared for facing the Aeon of Unity themself. After all that he has done, even disregarding your name while in Penacony....is he even worthy to look at you...?

"......"

Sunday stayed silent as he stood in the main cabin of the Astral Express, the galaxy of stars shining outside the long windows. Dan Heng and Caelus were chatting together towards the side, while March and Stelle were eagerly looking through the pictures March had taken on her camera. Himeko and Welt were sitting in a booth, discussing something that sounded....well, important as usual.

And standing in the center of the cabin, being served a delicious tray of delectable pastries and a drink by Pom-Pom was you: the Aeon of Unity.

"Pom-Pom made this all for you, Aeon! Yummy food, and a delicious smoothie! Courtesy of the Astral Express!" Pom-Pom beamed, the rabbit conductor practically hopping with joy at your presence aboard the train.

Sunday bit the inside of his cheek in thought, standing to the side as he observed you talking with Pom-Pom. The Aeon of Unity....creator of the vast galaxy. Of all life, all other Aeons. He had rejected your name while in Penacony, caring for nothing but control and power that he needed to protect the Dreamscape....but to also protect Robin. Free from the shackles of the Family, he was now set to find his true self, to find an answer for what he needed to know about himself deep down.

....he knew the Astral Express traveled to different worlds. He didn't come to the conclusion that it would also be a place that the Aeon of Unity would frequent.

"Hey, Sunday, what are you doing?" Caelus asked, walking over as he tilted his head. "You've been standing in the corner of the cabin just staring at the Aeon for the past ten minutes....hey, hey, do you maybe have beef with them? Are you going to fight? I'd pay to see that-!"

"Whoaaa, me too!" Stelle grinned as she ran over, the two gray-haired twins hopping up and down on their feet in excitement. "The Aeon of Unity and Sunday going head-to-head! Something worthy to record and post online-!"

"...you two. Cut it out," Dan Heng came over with a frown, his arms crossed across his chest. "There's no reason for Sunday to fight the Aeon. Especially while here on the Express."

"Yeah, he looks really uncomfortable with your questions!" March huffed as she walked over. "But really, Sunday....why do you keep staring at them?"

"...I suppose..." Sunday hesitated before clearing his throat. "I feel....unworthy to even be near their presence. After all, I rejected their name while I was in Penacony. I made...many people suffer. Many lives that they created. I'm....expecting them to not like me. Perhaps reject my presence, even knowing that I too was shaped by their hands. A fear that I never knew I would feel until right now..."

"Ah, so you want to make up for the sins you committed! Like how you almost killed all of us-" Stelle spoke before March slapped her hand over her mouth. "I-I mean-!"

"Well, no time like the present, right? And you won't know they hate you until you actually go up to talk to them," Caelus spoke, a reassuring look on his face. "....go on and just say hi, first, okay? The four of us will be here for moral support, so if you need any help, just call out for us! We'll come over and change the subject quick!"

Sunday blinked slowly before he gave a small smile. "I appreciate it, Caelus. Yes....you're right. I won't know unless I try, so I should try now." He took a deep breath before smoothing out his clothes and taking the first step forward towards you.

"Ah! Looks like you have a guest!" Pom-Pom smiled as he waddled to the side, holding out a smoothie to Sunday. "Here! You two have a drink while you talk. I'll leave the tray of pastries on this table, so have a good time and enjoy your snacks!" The rabbit conductor waved a stubby hand before walking away to join Himeko and Welt at the booth.

"Oh. Um..." Sunday gripped the smoothie tightly before opening his mouth, gradually looking at you with a small smile. "It's....an honor to meet you, Aeon of Unity. I am Sunday. You....probably already know of me, don't you...? Honestly, I would be quite surprised if you didn't...."
