ACWeapons wrote: It's similar to a pacebo affect. He acts independent because he thinks he is with the ears. A placebo effect is basically that X person has Y thing used on them. Y thing supposedly causes Z effect. However, that is a lie, and Y thing doesn't actually cause Z effect. However, X person still suffers the supposed effects because they believe that Y thing actually does cause Z effect.

For example, you ingest a pill that supposedly cures migraine. The actual pill doesn't really cure migraine, but you believe it does, and so your migraine dissapears.

In a case like this, I don't see how that would be possible, unless Fido is extremely dumb to think a pair of fake ears he made himself turns him into a Faunus, or something.
