[The first is him chasing down Luz in a rage for his staff. Luz at one point wonders if he's powerless without his staff, until he closes the distance and freaks her out. He then goes down the list of why she won't hurt him or run away and he is a real dick about it, honestly.]
[Rufous himself pauses after the memory, staring at his phone.] ...no. No, no, its just a fluke...
[So he takes a second and it sure does start with Eda saying Luz meant someone with no magical powers and he's very mad about hearing this in the memory. And proceeds to lash out and provoke both Eda and King because Of Course He Does. The memory continues with hiding from a raving Kikimora and having alone time with Amity wherein Hunter attempts to make a connection with her. Lowkey definitely to manipulate her. But also he lowkey Absolutely Genuinely Sympathizes With Her at the end because he's a mess of a person. The fear of disappointing someone is definitely said with far too much sincerity.]
[And at the end, Rufous is just staring at his phone with an intensity that almost seems like he's trying to read the secrets of the universe from it.]
