Depends... Maybe other than teaching about those fantastical creatures, I might try researching them about it. You know, learning about their behavior and their abilities.

[How ironic since he is the college professor of animal biology. He might as well add "fantastical beasts" in his occupation as well.]

Togusa smiles fondly, because now he can see it happening. "It's more about the discovery, the learning something new, that's more of an appeal than just the teaching." He's known a lot of professors like this, so it makes sense.

"I get it," Togusa admits. "And, I'm sorry I didn't before."

That's alright. I understand why you were suspicious about Modeste back at the Springtime Fair.

[Knowing Togusa, he feels that Modeste's appearance can be a little suspicious in his eyes during her first impressions on her.]

Oh, right. I supposed I should give this back to you now.

[He then reaches through his back and grabs the revolver before he offers it to Togusa.

But even after he may accept it, Augustine's eyes widen, a sign of another memory flashed in his mind.]

Togusa's eyes go wide, "Shit," it just slips out before he can stop himself. "I didn't even notice it was missing..."

Togusa takes the gun, cautiously gripping the cylinder, and the instant of contact between the two of them sparks something. "Hkng-" A feeling of heat across his chest, the scar settling back into place.

But. There is a matching feeling of warmth across the back of his shoulder blade. What?

He looks down at the gun. He can remember it, firing not just any gun, but this gun. Practicing, at the range, like he has for the past year. But the memory shows far more skill than he knows he is capable of.

"What-" The look on Togusa's face mirrors Augustine's. "What just happened there?"

[Like him, Augustine also felt the same heat of his chest. Not only that, a memory has been placed in his head that he never seen before.

Yet, his shock is somehow focused to the new memory he just saw.]

Pokemon... Professor?

All right. All right, focus. He holds a hand up to his head. "They came back. That was a little more sudden than the fortune cookies."

"You okay? You-" Togusa holds up a hand to his chest and taps it twice. "Gone?"

[When he hears Togusa's voice, Augustine quickly snaps out of the trance as he sees what he is trying to ask him. Knowing what he means, he quickly raises his shirt a little to check his chest, which reveals that the gunshot wound is gone. This makes him sigh in relief.]

I guess we're back to normal then. But regarding my memories, I did see the mentioned monsters you've mentioned, along with one more detail and another memory.

Togusa gives a small smile. "Told ya, it's like something out of a kaiju flick, hunh?"

He is tilting a little to the side, breathing deeper. No, there is definitely something else there, but he won't investigate it now. He has a bad feeling about it anyway. "Feels weird," he says out loud. "Just when I was getting used to it being there."

I agree. Although I'm just glad that memory is seen on a TV screen. Otherwise, I would have encountered it for real with my other self in danger.

[However, he becomes confused at what Togusa just experienced.]

What is it? Is the swap didn't go through as normal?

"No, it's- fine." A little too hesitant. "I think it just feels strange." He takes a very deep breath and lets it out.

"Still no breathing problems," Togusa shakes his head. "Lucian said I was lucky about that." He scratches the back of his head. "Sorry for the scare. I know we didn't pick this, but. Sorry anyway."

That's alright. At least this experience lets you get to know more about Modeste.

[However, Augustine's expression turned into confusion as he still wonders something.]

Though I'm still confused at those new memories, especially that small one.

"There is that," Togusa can't help but smile. Modeste just needs care, like anybody else. "But what's confusing? Something that doesn't quite fit with everything else you've seen?"

Well, it's that new memory after I got the one you have.

[He then looks down on the ground as he remembers his new vision.]

I remembered that I have a job called a "Pokemon Professor".

Oh, now that concerned look turns into a more sly smile. "Oh ho. So you were working with more of those creatures, hunh? Exactly what you want to be doing?"

[While Togusa shows a sly smile, Augustine just remains confused at his memory.]

I don't know. I just know that I'm a Pokemon Professor, but that's all. I don't even know what "Pokemon" means.

"No?" Hmm. "It wouldn't be another species of those creatures?" He gestures to the pocket where the computer Augustine was holding disappeared to. "A bigger one than the frog or the fox?"

Really? Why do you think of that?

[He then takes out the red device to check on what has been updated.]

Maybe... But for some reason, there is no new information regarding those large creatures I just recently saw.

Togusa smirks and shrugs. "Got nothing to go on but looking for the simplest solution. Maybe it would be too easy that it's all tied together."

"Maybe you didn't remember enough," Togusa tries to look over at the machine, too, but he can't tell. "Do you know what they were called?"

It does make sense when you think about it.

[Augustine then tries to remember more about the memory, but he only nods no.]

I don't think so, no.

"I'm sure you'll figure out more," Togusa encourages.

"I- should probably get back to it," he checks the time on his phone. "But thank you for taking the time to do this. I wasn't sure what I was expecting, but I suppose this is the best we could have hoped for?"

I guess so. At least our strange situation did give us some memories along with information about Modeste's memory.

[Augustine gets up from his seat in preparation to leave.]

And I know it wasn't intentional, but I'm sorry if I took your belongings.
