Memory 12: First allusion

This is basically a headcanon memory about the first time Toboe tried using his human guise. I imagine he probably never used it around Granny so the first time he ever would've wanted it was when he was alone, after Leara fed him the sausages in Episode 2. My takeaway is that he really wanted to be with someone and she seemed nice, but he was also scared at being alone for the first time and afraid to talk as a wolf so the illusion just... happened. Toboe typically has to concentrate to use it and I figure the first time was just a matter of really wanting a way to talk to Leara.

What he learns?
- He never used his illusion trick before he was in the city so that must mean the old woman never saw it
- He really wanted to thank someone for something
- He has to concentrate to use his illusion

What this means to Aather?

Pretty much it just reinforces Toboe's wish to have his illusion ability back. :(

Memory 13: Crows

So here's the day. I just realized I have one memory twice and since it happened waaaaaaaaaaaaay back here, I don't feel like fixing this log so I'm just going to insert a quick headcanon to even things out. :x

This headcanon is mostly Toboe talking to the crows and learning about Tsume. It's nothing special but establishes Toboe can talk easily to other animals. o/

Memory 14: Cooking with Granny

Another headcanon memory because the series just didn't have enough cute scenes with Toboe and Granny. This one is basically a collection of times that Granny would make delicious smelling food and Toboe would either sit patiently (but excitedly) at her feet or wander around her legs, too anxious to sit. She would usually show him things as she was doing it just to get a delighted bark and would often ask him whether an ingredient looked good to add. This is a lot of interaction between the two and showing how she truly considered Toboe part of her family and how much they both loved each other. She would also let Toboe taste various things during preparation, though she would put his finished portion on a plate on the ground. Puppies cannot eat at the table, you see. It's not very nice. But she would also share with him whenever she made snacks to eat while she was knitting. It's all cute~.

What he learns?
- He has realized by now that he used to live with the old woman and that he loved her dearly.
- She made the most delicious food.

What this means in Aather?
It's a bit of a bittersweet memory for Toboe, as it's really good times with Granny but also the knowledge that she's gone and it's his fault. :( But he's really grateful to have such a nice memory of her.

Skill 2 - Moon healiing

Wolves in Wolf's Rain often can heal themselves by over-nighting under the moon. They are generally more powerful during this time too and get an added BOOST during the full moon. Kiba says he can go for days without eating just by soaking up moonlight, but the other wolves aren't as hardcore. This skill mostly means Toboe will be able to heal up to medium injuries just by spending time under the moon. This also increases his NIGHT affinity, which is mostly pertinent to Nahadoth. He probably gets a bit of an adrenaline boost the longer he stays around Naha too. :)

Memory 15: Granny giving him his bracelets

Okay, first, I fucked up and didn't mark this properly and so I played it out without actually switching it and the cooking memory (which I also played out) like I was supposed to. Thus, I am swapping this one for whatever Toboe won in Columbine's game to fix things. |D

Sob so many headcanon memories. I wanted something about Toboe receiving his bracelets from Granny so I put in this. I figured it was probably some date she made up for his birthday, even though he probably didn't understand what that meant at the time. She wrapped them up in really shiny paper that he got to paw at and claw through in a hurry. It was probably a terrible mess and Granny was laughing the whole time. Then when he revealed the bracelets, she showed him that they were exactly like hers, which made him extra happy. There were many lickings and Toboe really felt like family. More cuteness~.

What he learns?
- The bracelets he always sees in his memories came from the old woman. He sort of suspected this since his memories of her do show them to be the same.
- So much love for her~.
- So much sadness that she's gone forever. :(((

What this means in Aather?

At the time, it really made him upset to not have his bracelet anymore and he desperately wanted them. But Ferris helped by offering him a used memory bracelet from Madame White's game and it was extra special for Toboe since it came from his family, Tiger's Eye. So he's all right with having that one now. He knows the knights can't give him his exact bracelets so he won't ask.

Memory 16: Robot attack

Memory starts at 10:50. Ignore non-Toboe parts and follow to next part. + Ignore non-Toboe parts (except for Kiba's fight with the robot) and goes to the end.

What he learns?
- Calling for Tsume. This must be when he left them before. :(
- Scary metal thing came out of nowhere and Tsume was hurt protecting him. :(
- Tsume had never seen anything like it either.
- Everywhere smelled like death. :( It was a bad place.
- FALLING IS TERRIFYING.
- Tsume's life must've been hard to have so many scars...
- Tsume doesn't like it when he licks him. :( Even though he really likes Tsume so there!
- Cool is a fun word.
- Tsume doesn't want to trust anyone.
- Tsume worries about him.
- KIBA SAVED THEM AND WAS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! Oh wow, it would be so wonderful to be as cool as Kiba.
- KIBA IS SO COOL!!!
- He knew the others would come. :)
- Tsume is so uncomfortable about being saved. :/
- But Tsume lets him help him. :)

What this means in Aather?
It mostly just urges him to keep trying, even when people are difficult because they probably have their reasons. Oh yes, and he wants to be cool like Kiba. :(b The robot part is also interesting since while he doesn't know what the robot is, it sounds a lot like what Church described as a robot. And Church says HE'S A ROBOT. DDD:
