1.

No siblings, no cousins that he knows of!

2.

Very complicated! He was simultaneously her bastard kid ( in both senses ) and her caretaker. They both did their best to take care of each other, but ultimately it was a very painful relationship.

As of now, he wants his mother back, but doesn& #39;t have the guts to visit her.
3.

Well, his dad tried to lop his head off, and the guy later died for his efforts, so...

There isn& #39;t much relationship--he was around long enough to leave a face behind, but Itaba has no other memory of him.
4.

Yep! Seeing a mother pat her daughter on the head. It& #39;s a small, trivial thing, so nobody knows about it.

5.

... Nothing constant! Maybe a few screws, maybe a few ladybugs, maybe a soap bar he stole from the bathhouse.

6.

Silhouettes leaving through a door flooded with light.

And! Not so much a recurring theme, and he isn& #39;t aware of this, but scenery in his dreams are often what his ghosts see while wandering about. Sometimes an entity called the & #39;Owl Man& #39; looks for him in a deep, dark wood.
7.

Lots of warm, sticky hands! Particularly a strong one holding him by the back of his neck and one pale, slender one yanking on his ear.

Sometimes he& #39;s face-up and the slender hand is holding his face instead. Sometimes its just big hands pressing on his nose and mouth.
8.

Mistakenly, yes! It didn& #39;t hit anyone, but he was aiming at an enemy of the gang that had at the time taken him in. Not the first one in his hometown一he was around 16 at this time.

9.

A little! He was dirt poor as a kid, but now he& #39;s got a little bit of money stashed away from ringfighting and odd jobs. The issue is: the idea of & #39;spending& #39; doesn& #39;t stick in his brain...

13.

Not at all, unless it& #39;s coming from between his legs!

14.

Faces! His vision is getting worse and worse though, so at some point it will be... BLOBS of faces.

15.

Not at all! He can& #39;t make sense of numbers bigger than 50.

16.

HAPPINESS!

18.

Wisdom! He& #39;s a stupid bitch so if someone knows more than him AND is able to break it down in understandable bits, he automatically respects them.

Mostly because he can& #39;t comprehend how vast that wisdom is if he can& #39;t relate to it...

20.

He doesn& #39;t compare much! He believes he is always inferior, but he& #39;s also very sure of himself. It& #39;s a strange dynamic.

When he does compare, it& #39;s less criticism than lamentation一more like, "ah, in another life, I could& #39;ve been someone like that."
