HELLO NEW FRIEND when Kaiko is not. quite so dead. whoops!!
anyway re: smelling magic mmmmmaybe? I usually roll with it as Kaiko's brand of power being specifically spiritual rather than magical, if that makes any sense whatsoever :'D so if in Naeva's setting the two are closely related or she's able to smell ghosts/gods she'd def be able to pick up on that but otherwise probably not.
That said, Kaiko flat out doesn't smell human or really living- her base scent is mostly petrichor and ozone with hints of dust and brickwork (and at the moment there are hints of old blood and graveyard dirt, which will go away when/if she gets her shit together lmao) so there's a lot of other fun stuff Naeva could definitely pick up on.
no subject
