day 24: other side (fast sketch)
everyone out here with their cool/hot goats and then there's bileth, with their little-bro energy and the vibe of an edgelord kid
why yes i AM still obsessed with the nari-as-goat idea i had ages back why do you ask (enjoy the oncoming ramble)
v long mostly sketched story short, Lamb's on extra hard mode and Narinder's real gay for them and wants to help them, so he goes and finds an alternate world where its equivalent of the Lamb (the Goat) failed to save its equivalent of him (the One Who Binds), and in return for letting him borrow their body/crown to fool the chains and let him help the Lamb directly, Narinder will help the Goat get revenge for the loss of the One Who Binds, once he has the Red Crown back
Bileth kinda like 'damn yours has that much of a skill issue? alright sure' unaware that their own world was playing on easy mode. watches one crusade in the Lamb's universe and is like 'know what I take that back, what the fuck is wrong with them that they're still willing to do this'
takes a long time for the Goat and the Lamb to meet, since he's usually chilling Below with Aym and Baal and letting the twins watch what's going on via the Purple Crown, and Narinder's very intent on not letting the Lamb know it's him piloting the Goat; as the only physical tell is the changed eyeshape and the easily concealed third eye, so long as they don't meet the Goat when the Goat is piloting, it should be fine* (*it does not end up fine)
Lamb sees Nari-as-Goat as a very good friend but not romance material, since they're saving themself for god, and the actual Goat ends up 'starstruck by cool older sibling' about the Lamb, meaning the eventual proper meeting has Lamb thinking 'yeah i can see why you needed to keep up the charade there's no way i could mistake you for him'
once they meet actual Goat they end up with a slightly-exasperated older sibling dynamic
Narinder is understandably not comfortable pursuing the Lamb in someone else's body, but that sure doesn't stop him from pining. Has a somewhat older brother vibe with the Goat that ranges from more or less friendly to a brief blip of enmity when Bileth finds out that Shamura's still alive in this world and he maybe kinda goes a little rogue about it
aym and baal are LIVING for this soap opera though i'll tell you hwat
