HELIODOR
Re: HELIODOR
I gave Kitsunebi drawing, (normal) empathy for Thorfinn, blacksmithing for Crown. Dirk and Sion wanted leatherworking.
Why did you choose to share those skills in particular?
I just suggested what I could do and let people pick from there for the most part. Except for Thorfinn. I suggested empathy for him. He doesn't get people well, so I thought he'd might finally get some of the stuff I talk about if he actually got some of my perspective.
What skills were shared with you, and from whom? (just a list is fine)
I got the ability to turn into a wolf from Kitsunebi. I got straight forward thinking from Thorfinn. I got ninja skills from Crown. Dirk gave me his technical knowledge and Sion gave me his touch empathy.
Why do you think you received these skills in particular?
Kitsunebi was giving out wolf to a lot of people and it sounded like the most fun. Thorfinn was just kind of throwing things out, I think. I got the ninja skills from Crown because we thought it might help me get farther in my training to know what it was like to be good. I've always had an interest in technology, so that's why I got that knowle3dge from Dirk. I asked Sion for the empathy touch because I was actually curious what having that was like. Just so I could understand him a bit more.
If you could choose one skill to keep forever, which would it be and why?
It's a toss up between the straight forward thinking and the technical knowledge. The straight forward thinking could probably help a lot of my problems, but...that's me trying to change who I am too dramatically.
I can't learn the technical knowledge back home, only in Aather. But being able to retain that knowledge, I could do a lot then. I could make better machines and just make things better in general for my home with that knowledge, so it's unfortunate to see it go.
If you had to choose one skill to lose forever, which would it be?
The wolf thing. As much as I enjoyed being a wolf and loved the experience, I'm still a human. I don't want to change my species, so it's better as just a special occasion sort of thing.
Did you discover anything about yourself or your friends this way?
I wonder a bit. If Sion feels lonely, having to watch when he's touching someone.
The same for Kitsunebi. While it was fun for a short time, he's still the only wolf around that's not a Persona. To be the only one and have an awkward body compared to everyone else. It feels almost harder to connect. Even if there's some advantages, to be the only one seems sad.
It's really, really nice to just say what I want to say without being all obsessive and thinking in circles, but it also makes me a bit...tactless, I suppose? It makes me think I really should work on improving that part of me on my own instead of trying for some magic fix.
...
I also have an intimate understanding of what scratching behind the ears does to wolves and I think it has a similar affect to a lot of animals I give that treatment too, so that's new.

His teacher is a troll and now he knows what he does to every animal he meets.
Talking about lonely wolf sad and reading joy!
It's really hard to ignore trauma and not react to it when you're not a neurotic full of self doubt to keep you silent.
Re: HELIODOR
Empathy - Bart, Rider, Kazuki, Yuki, Dirk.
Why did you choose to share those skills in particular?
They wanted it. Except in the case of Kazuki-san, whom I gave it to without his knowledge, in the hopes it would help us communicate.
What skills were shared with you, and from whom? (just a list is fine)
Leatherworking, from Rider. Telepathy, from Yuki. Mental fortitude, from Kazuki. Whip skills from Bart. Flashstepping, from Dirk.
Why do you think you received these skills in particular?
I wanted them, and Yuki-san wished to share the experience of telepathy.
If you could choose one skill to keep forever, which would it be and why?
Telepathy. It helps to understand others.
If you had to choose one skill to lose forever, which would it be?
Of my own? I would not. I have no desire to lose any or speculate which I would lose.
Did you discover anything about yourself or your friends this way?
Being able to hear thoughts did provide additional insights into others. I will miss that.
