[It had taken her some time, a little heavy lifting and an awful lot of reading up on taking care of fish and sea life in the library, but it's finished. Room twelve in community building three now has a fully functioning fish tank! There's a hanging filter happily bubbling away into the water of the pretty bare looking tank. Fuuko had wanted to go down to the beach and find a few shells and what not but it's really cold, so for now the tank only has some gravel along the bottom and a rock or two in it.

As the journal comes into focus it's possible to notice something in the tank past the gravel and rocks. In fact if you can't notice it you must need your eyesight checked as Fuuko currently has the journal pushed right up against the glass of the tank.

The most adorable of adorable starfish is inside, laying on top of one of the rocks. Yes, a real live starfish. Fuuko couldn't believe it either. A real live starfish! It needs repeating, okay, it's a real a starfish. REAL. Many a trance came and went when she first unwrapped the jar containing the little guy.

Having kept the journal on for a minute or so in silence whilst she shows off her new pet, Fuuko speaks up.]

Fuuko cannot thank whoever gave Fuuko such a gift this Christmas time enough! Had Fuuko been able to find a tank and supplies sooner then rest assured, Fuuko would have thanked whoever-you-are long ago!

[Turning the journal towards her face which has a giant smile plastered all over it, because hey, guess what guys, it's a real starfish. And it's her pet! Aaah!]

Fuuko has even decided to keep the jar that-- Oh, Fuuko still needs to think of a name... But Fuuko is keeping the jar he came in as a memento of this wonderful present even in his nameless state! [Giving the journal a wave she starts closing the journal-- But wait, ooone more thing.] Fuuko almost forgot to mention the Starfish Festival seeing as all Fuuko can think of right now is this cute little guy. It'll probably be in April sometime, though there's no definite date yet. Just letting you all know!

[Well of all the things she never thought she would have to explain.

Folding her arms and tucking her hands behind her to try and imitate how the jacket would work.]

A straitjacket is something madmen might wear which is meant to protect others and themselves from... Well, themselves. Their arms are wrapped up by the long sleeves on the jacket, like this!

Ah. [A pause.] Let me know if you see anything of the kind 'round here, eh? As a favor? A kindness?

Fuuko will do just that... Providing you promise Fuuko that you won't go around cutting off the legs of starfish and giving them wooden legs! Ever!

I, Captain Jack Sparrow, shall never cut off the legs of starfish and replace them with wooden ones.

Honor bright.

Good! Fuuko will be sure to let you know if one of those jackets ever shows up. Would you like Fuuko to bring it to you as well as tell you about it?

No! Wait...aye! Aye, lass: if you find one of those funny coats, signal me immediate-like!

[Better it be in his hands than someone else's.]

Fuuko will be sure to keep an eye out for any straitjackets then. Is there any particular reason you want to know if one shows up?

None that you actually need know about, in the end. [Jack likes to play his cards regarding what he sees as torture instruments a bit close to the vest.]

...You won't go trying to put one on a starfish would you? Or a starfish fairy?! [How horrible.]

No. No, darling, I do not want to clothe or unclothe or limb or unlimb any sorts of fairies or fish or ANYTHING. Live and let live and maraud, that's my motto.

What a strange motto, though Fuuko understands now that you mean the starfish and the starfish fairies no harm. Make sure you keep things that way.

Wait, what's your name anyway? Fuuko should know, otherwise Fuuko will just ask to speak to 'the weird pirate who keeps fairies' over the journal when Fuuko finds a straitjacket!

Sparrow. Captain Jack Sparrow.

.....Best not to mention the fairies at all, really. Oooor the straitjacket. Simply refer to it as "the item of interest," savvy? The item of interest.

Fuuko will do just that then... Though Fuuko can't help but feel like there might be something more here that Fuuko doesn't see.

[It all seems very sneaky, referring to things as other things and what not.]

And Jack Sparrow wonders whether there might be LOTS of things Fuuko does not see. But that's neither here, there, or anywhere. Just don't mention it, savvy?

There are probably many things Fuuko doesn't see, most of them right now are probably related to you Jack-san.

[Rolling her eyes and sighing.]

But Fuuko won't mention it at all to any of Fuuko's friends or anyone else, even if it is very weird.

[Though she might bring this up with Nagisa or Kotomi...]
