*The delivery of the anemoi has allowed him a few more memories, or at least coincided with whatever force allows him to remember. Unlike a lot of people, however, he isn't really one to go crowing about them. Remembering his friends Mika, Takuro and Takeshi is a nice thing, and some of the stuff he did with them, but the fact that most of those memories only come before a certain point gives him a bit of a sick feeling in his stomach that there's another shoe waiting to drop. The rest of the anemoi just gave him vague memories of living in a smaller rural village before moving to a larger town, and some of the myths he'd poo-pooed that used to be told there.
Although he supposes dismissing them NOW would be... going against the evidence.
So he doesn't talk about it, and doesn't show he's worried. Instead, he just throws himself that much more into his research studies. This includes:
1.) Heading back and making more observations on the crab people. With nobody actually CLAIMING the job -- or at least, if someone did, apparently they weren't that tasty -- there's enough of them that he can observe some of their habitat and mannerisms, as long as he stays out of view.
At length, he puts out the following information:*
[TEXT]
Have been observing the crabs that have been causing problems on the waterfront, and I've seen a few things that might help people who want to try to clear them out:
- They're large, about the size of humans, if maybe a little shorter. They've got a pretty tough shell on them from what I can tell, and I can only see an unprotected spot on their head, which they're pretty good at covering when attacking.
- Speaking of attacking, they're aggressively territorial. I remained hidden, but I saw them attempt to chase after things like cars that got too close. Thankfully it looks like they thought the cars were the living things, and mostly what happened is the cars got scratched and dented pretty badly. They seem to favor claws and headbutts in their attack patterns.
- They seem to get more active as it gets dark. They don't seem strictly nocturnal, but it might be easier to attack during daylight hours.
Not sure how much this helps, but it's better than nothing. Good luck if you decide to hunt one.
2.) Reading up on giant octopi. He's not sure if that's natural for them to do or not.
3.) Reading up on... how to care for an octopus? Well, that one's explained by the new presence of a large fishtank in Palom and Hiroshi's room, and the small octopus -- he named it Montfort for dorky reasons -- that currently resides within. At least the money from those candlesticks paid for this setup.
4.) ...wandering the Hotel complex trying to figure out how the hell the damn thing escaped despite all his precautions. Well, the guide DID say they were fiendishly clever at this sort of thing.
He wonders how it is all of his creature observations so far have been on aquatically related creatures...
((OOC: 5% regains between anemoi hunt and the activity check, for a grand total of 9%. 3% spent on remembering Takuro, Mika and Takeshi prior to the events of Ao Oni, and 2% on young childhood.))
