Things of Note:
Summary
- Nova and her sister are leaving along with other vampires at a party, thrown by a pureblood who has recentlly awoken from a long slumber.
- A girl who happens to know Nova intimately approaches and puts a collar on Ren, rigged to explode or cause some other type of damage.
- 'Onee-sama' sends the girl flying and attempts to aid Nova
- 'Onee-sama' manages to remove the collar but not without severe injuries to both girls.
- Nova has been suppressing her feelings of wanting to drink her sister's blood.
- Nova was afraid of being hated by her sister.
- 'Onee-sama' assures her that it is alright to drink her blood.
- Nova gives in to the urge and topples her sister to the ground to feed.
Commentary
- 'Onee-sama' is a very formal way of addressing an older sister.
- The honorific '-sama' also implies that her sister's status within vampire society is higher than her own.
- There's been a lot of animosity thrown around between vampires and humans and Ren's existence is a problem to both sides of the issue.
Effects
- This just alerts Nova to the fact that she has a sibling
- This also outs Ren to her team that she is a vampire, something she's tried to keep under wraps.

Things to Note:
Summary
- Nova is much younger in this memory (obviously) and is playing house with her sister. She also expresses her desire to be someone who protects others, in this case she specifically mentions Hunters.
- Rei makes an appearance, whom Nova addresses as 'Otou-sama'. He looks about the same as he normally does in Imeeji, of course.
- Nova becomes excited and asks him to play house with her and 'Onee-sama'.
- Rei tells her that he's about to go to gun practice. Leading to Nova asking if she can come watch, but her sister tells her it is too dangerous.
- Rei gives permission for her to watch, as long as she stands behind the bullet-proof glass with her sister.
- While they watch, Nova comments on the fact that Rei is cool and how she wants to protect people, just as he does. She also mentions wanting to first protect her sister.
- Ai hugs her and asks if someday Nova will listen to her secrets, which she agrees to do.
Commentary
- Surprise Rei really is a dad!
- This is a more carefree memory than the fist one, because I thought Nova could use a break *laughs*
- There isn't a whole lot of note in this except for a specific personality trait of Nova's: her desire to protect people, just like Rei.
Effects
- This alerts Nova to the fact that she is blood related to Rei
- She will be asking anyone who sees the memory that might know Rei (and Kaguya by extension) not to tell him or Kaguya about it.

Kaguyais obscured and her voice is muffled and indiscernibleSummary
- Ren is a few years younger in this memory, sitting in bed while her parents look in on her.
- Her mother (whose face is obscured and voice muffled throughout the memory) is kneeling beside the bed while her father is in the doorway.
- Ren is experiencing what can be aptly called "vampire puberty" and experiencing a thirst for blood. She becomes adamant that her sister does not enter her room.
- Instead of staying at home, she begs her parents to let her go with her father to the shooting range to shoot a gun. Her father takes her along the path behind their home, away from others. Ren bites him to temporarily alleviate her thirst.
- Later, Ren takes to avoiding her sister so as to not think about thirsting for her blood. She has been having dreams of draining her sister's blood.
Commentary
- Surprise! Zero is Ren's dad?!
- The honorific '-sama' also implies that her sister's status within vampire society is higher than her own.
- There is some implied incest themes so if that's not your thing, please feel free to avoid.
Effects
- Nova has now received her real name!
- And everyone knows she has particularly strong feelings for her sister...? (How embarrassing)

-Ai scolds her and apologizes for Ren's behavior and then promptly erases the woman's memories and sends her on her way.

Hide and Seek
(No Images)
Things of note
Summary
A younger Ren is running through the massive Kuran mansion, attempting to play Hide and Seek with her sister. Gleefully, she opens door after door, searching for the perfect hiding place. That is when she sees it - Mother's study. Surely she would never find her in here! Her mother is already there, of course, working on some paperwork, reading and making notes of it.
"Ren? Did you need something?" she questions, smiling warmly like she always did. Mother and Father were always like that - warm and loving and happy. It made Ren happy too. Even when they had to work, she wasn't lonely because she had Ai with her too. When they could spend the time with her, she loved being able to play games or read books with them. It was a warm and happy place.
"Hiding! Okaa-shama, where is a good place to hide? I want to win Hide and Seek against Onee-shama." Ren speaks well enough, but some words are still difficult to say properly at such a young age - such as honorifics. Yuuki looks surprised, but then smiles and giggles a little. Rising from her seat, she moves to scoop a tiny Ren up in her arms, pressing her face to the top of her head while hugging her.
"Come here, I have a good place." Yuuki sets her down next to a window, pulling back the curtains a bit. "In here. If she comes, I won't tell her, okay?" She smiles playfully, petting Ren's hair. The curtain is long enough that it reaches the floor. It's perfect for hiding. When Ren giggles, in her delight, Yuuki presses a finger to her lips before kissing her forehead.
It isn't long before Ai comes to look for her, smiling as she asks Yuuki where she is. Ren can see the two of them when she tries to sneak a peak from behind the curtain. Yuuki pretends not to know, telling her to keep looking. She is seated at her desk again. When Ai leaves and is far enough away, Yuuki laughs.
"You can come out." Ren immediately rushes forward, and trying to climb into her lap.She holds onto her mother, pressing her face into her long hair to smell it. It has a familiar, calming smell to it.
"Okaa-shama, thank you for playing with me." She snuggles closer, content. Yuuki just smiles and kisses her head, running her fingers through her long silver hair.
"Of course."
