Mnemonic

A wolverine is going down a slide into your mouth. Why is he going into your mouth, though? You're opening it really wide, because you're screaming "BUDDY"!!! You're so excited to see your wolverine buddy-pal again. But this wolverine isn’t just your buddy, he’s also the local ruler of these lands. You make it a habit to befriend the local strongmen, so no wonder even the rulers are your buddies.

You’re so happy to be seeing your wolverine ruler-buddy again, so make sure to really visualize yourself shouting "BUDDY!” as he comes sliding into your mouth.

Mnemonic

As you're about to embrace your buddy wolverine, a raccoon (くん) tackles the wolverine off the slide, preventing your mouth embrace.

"RaCCOON!" you yell. "THIS IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. Get out of here." Feel some hate for the raccoon. He ruined everything.
