Dusk ( Asch )

Natalia liking his cooking. This skit, essentially.
"It wasn't anything special."

Remembers:
Cooking for the tales party! General faces and names of the main tales party, but no Luke in sight. Getting approached by Anise and Natalia and that whole scene happening. Feeling a little pleased with himself over Natalia enjoying his cooking, until Anise starts in on him. Having absolutely no problems using an arte on a small child.

Learned:
- Natalia is a bad cook.
- I traveled with Dawn's friends for a while.
- I know how to cook, well at that.
- I liked that Natalia specifically liked it.
- ANISE IS SUPER EMBARRASSING STOP THAT.

Reactions/Effects:
+ 20 affection for Natalia
+ 30 enthusiasm for cooking
+ 10 violent reactions when embarrassed

Getting The Talk from Dist. Note: Headcanon!
"... why the hell does all sex involve someone named Jade?"

Remembers:
Being pulled aside from god general training when he was about 14 by a really weird guy with a frilly collar. The guy is named Dist! Dist the Rose. Being told that it's about time he receive a 'specific education'. Getting dragged into a large room with two robots in it. One of the robots is wearing a dress. A VERY awkward lesson that includes the robots, diagrams, and frequent mentions of 'Jade'. Leaving the room after breaking one of the robots by stabbing it and absolutely confused about how babies are made.

Learned:
- He was training to be something called a 'god general' at this age.
- He was going by the name Asch at this age.
- Dist is another god general who is really weird and annoying.
- 'Jade' is either a person or an implement vital to sex.

Reactions/Effects:
+ Infinity reasons to never have sex. Ever.
+ 20 thoughts of what the hell was my life.
+ 0 importance and relevance in any way to Dusk.
+ ... .01 morbid interest in if sex really works that way because what the hell are there really robots involved?

Trying to stop Luke from going into Akzeriuth and failing. Episode 8, 7:15 - 12:50
"You idiot! Don't go in there!"

( Heavily centric on his thoughts re: Dawn/Luke )

Ranting about Luke to the Dark Wings. Note: Implied canon!
"I can't believe how stupid that dreck is!"

Remembers:
The Dark Wings: Urushi, York, and Noir! Them being very 'haha oh Asch' about his rant. Him telling them that he doesn't pay them to make jokes. Being kind of a jerk to the Dark Wings but them not really caring that he's a jerk! Riding in that... weird little car thing that the Dark Wings drove. Using some very creative language when talking about Luke. Ranting about 'THAT STUPID DRECK' for a really long time and being absolutely infuriated at him over just about every/any thing.

Learned:
- His name when he's older is Asch.
- He's not king like he thought he'd be.
- He hangs out with a group of part-time thieves he hired to do things for him.
- Despite being kind of a jerk to them, he doesn't really hate them.
- His language is a lot less formal/stiff when he's older.
- Just the mention of Luke sends him into an angry tirade. Frequently.
- He carries a sword!

Reactions/Effects:
This is Dusk's first memory of himself when he's older! And... apparently he gets angry really easily whenever Luke comes up. He doesn't remember what SPECIFICALLY he gets angry at Luke for in this memory, but there's a lot of 'that idiot' and 'stupid replica' and 'dreck.' He recognizes that they're all insults, but at the moment 'replica' doesn't mean much to him other than a bad thing. He was just super mad at Luke because Luke did something stupid. Again. The thing is he has no idea why he got so irrationally angry over Luke, looking at the memory from the outside it seems like a huge overreaction, but he's not sure if he's just lost control of his temper or Luke really did do something amazingly stupid. So for now he's keeping this memory to himself. :|a

Etiquette lessons from the castle tutors. Note: Headcanon!
"A proper gentleman sits up straight, is polite and well-spoken, and does everything he can for those he cares about."

Remembers:
Studying in a large library with a snooty lady. Repetitive corrections to his posture and way of speaking. Repeated lectures on how he must become a perfect gentleman and cannot let 'his people' down. Wanting to follow these instructions and paying careful attention to his lessons.

Learned:
- He's of some kind of noble blood. As such, it's expected of him to act like a noble.
- General manners! In particular being polite.
- Sense of responsibility! Take care of those/things he sees as 'his', no matter what.
- There are people depending on him that he can't let down.
