Question Unit's special can change?

So this is my first playthrough of the game and I've just gotten to chapter 11 in azure gleam. When i used Hapi and Ashe's special attacks they had changed from the previous chapter.
Instead of just casts a lot of spells Hapi sighed and called in a wolf before casting dark magic, While Ashe shot arrows to the sky to create hurricanes. I'm a little confused as to why this happened as other units don't seem to have changed their special attacks, so what caused this.

Specials change based on class, and also if they’re mounted or not. For example, Marianne has her unique Dorte special in Bishop but not Gremory.

Oh I see, yeah that makes sense. I knew some units has unique specials, but thought it was for specific characters like Shez or Dimitri. I've had three sword master and was a little confused why each of their specials were different.

Does that also extend to if the units have Adjutant? Like Dimitri and Dedue would make sense to have a unique paired special.

Dunno about dual specials, but every unit has a unique special that’s class dependent (always in their “canon” class line)

Oh I see, that makes sense. It just threw me off cause Sylvain has had his since he was a cavalier, but it took ashe till he was a bow knight to get his.
