★8th Star☆ [Video|Action]

[Video]
[The bright sun, blue sky, even the odd cloud dotted here and there. Whoever is holding the journal is doing a pretty good job of capturing the good weather right now.]

After all the rain and wind last week it's this sort of sunshine that really makes Fuuko think of summer.

[The journal soon pulls back to show that the sky is being recorded through a massive hole in the roof of one of house 26's upstairs bedrooms.]

However Fuuko really does not want to enjoy summer whilst still being inside like this! Most of the water has dried away or has been mopped up but this thing is still here! Even if Fuuko was low on money and couldn't afford AC this would be a very extreme solution. And even then money isn't a problem so why is this hole still here?!

[Normally these things see to themselves, but nope. Still a hole. The bedroom is still a complete wreck too, with debris and bits of glass and the door frame scattered about all over.]

If anyone knows anything about fixing things like this then Fuuko would appreciate a little of your time. Fuuko will even prepare something to give to your for your trouble, something very delicious!

[Oh, and quickly adding in at the end--]

Also, Fuuko hopes everyone who went into space returned home safely! If you all want something delicious too then please come to house 26, there's going to be more than enough for anyone who wants some. Fuuko will make sure of that!

[Action]

[The 'something very delicious' Fuuko was referring to is starfish shaped bread. Giant loaves of it. There's only so much of the stuff she can make before she needs more ingredients though so she's out around the village to pick up some more.

... But she couldn't just leave all the bread she had recently baked alone in the house. Even if Kotomi and Nagisa are there who knows what could come through that hole in the roof! As such, Fuuko is carrying a bag of freshly baked starfish bread around with her. Don't you just love the smell of bread that's just come out of the oven? It's still a little warm too!]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[... FINE chill like a villain. Weird guy.]

You can be added to the bottom of the list then, so don't come right away if there's any trouble Arata-san. We'll come to you.

If that's a roundabout way of rejecting my offer, you're still going to get it.

That's right, Fuuko and the rest of Fuuko's friends will receive your offer but only when everyone else on the list has tried already. You might not be able to cut it by then Arata-san.

Not unless I cut corners. [And NOW he'll be properly hopping off the hole and landing on the bed close by.] What if I were to dress up as a giant Starfish? Would that win you over?

[Oh great now the bed is all messed-- WAIT. WHAT ARE YOU SAYING.

Giant starfish. Buuut giant starfish with Arata inside it.

Why do you play with her heart like this.]

If you dressed up as a giant starfish then that would definitely be an insult to all starfish kind. Please do not go dressing up as a giant starfish, not even a fat cushion starfish which is probably very fun to poke and play with!

[HE'LL PROPERLY REMAKE IT.

... But in the meanwhile, SHALL FLOP DOWN on that comfy bed, awwwyiiiis.]

Oh? You want me to dress up as a fat cushion starfish? I'll be sure to mark that down whenever the "Hero to Beautiful Ladies" Position opens up at some point.

Were you listening?! Fuuko said that you shouldn't do that, not that you should! And what's with the way you've just slipped into the bedroom like this?!

[And then the comment about the hero to beautiful ladies and jsdhfgjs-- ARATA PLS.] Why is it Fuuko always has a hard time when you're around?!

[Puts a hand to his chin as if he's trying to find and answer to that question...]

Hmm... I don't know about you, but I have fun when I hang out with you.

[what.]

How can you be having fun hanging out with Fuuko when Fuuko doesn't find this fun at all? If Fuuko made a list of fun things to do then spending time with Arata-san would be at the bottom around 'talking with Masaomi-san'.

Huh? That's kinda hurts. [BUT REGARDLESS.] I'm not trying to be friends with you since you're friends with Nagisa and Kotomi. I want to be friends with you since you're you, of course.

[... Is that so.] Maybe Fuuko has misjudged you as a weird guy when in fact you're just a normal guy who says weird things now and then.

If you really want to be friends with Fuuko then we can be friends. Please try not to say as many weird things from now on. [Who is she to say no to someone wanting to be her friend. It's not like she had issues making those in the past or anything. Nope.]

I'm just kidding around when I say that stuff. But if you really want me to, I can't argue against a new friend.

[And now, he'll be hopping off the bed and going to pat her on the head.] So instead, I'll just pat your head more often.

Fuuko appreciates you putting in the effort to cut down on things like that Arata-san.

[And she smiles for all of a few seconds before that hand lands on her head. At first she's tempted to smack it away buuut new friends don't smack new friends. Probably. So instead she takes a step back to avoid further head patting.]

Though if you could stop patting Fuuko on the head and stop saying strange things then that would make Fuuko even happier!

[Fufufu~ He's just laughing to himself from that reaction.]

Huh... I could do that, but I might end up wanting to do those things more if it makes you happy. I'm a wild stallion who has trouble being completely tamed.

It seems more like you're just wild and you have trouble understanding how much Fuuko dislikes those things! Please don't do them more, they don't make Fuuko any happier, not even a little bit!

[Backing away further, towards the damaged wall behind her and the door. Sob.]

[He's noticing this and shall be stepping closer to make sure that she doesn't fall backwards or something FFFF]

Hey, hey. Be careful! You're going to fall and hurt yourself if you keep backing up like that.

Who knows what will happen if Fuuko stays still and lets you get any closer though! It's much safer this way!

[And in saying this Fuuko totally jinxes herself and ends up tripping on a tile that had fallen from the roof.]

[She could've crashed and hit her head, but N O P E. Arata will catch her in his arms and pull her up.]

Oh? I wouldn't be so sure about that. I would say you would be more safer in my arms than leaving you to yourself.

[ooh mister arata ooh]

Y-Yes, well-- This has never happened to Fuuko before!

[The tripping, falling and being saved. It's all very new. There's a pause where Fuuko takes in the current situation before she pushes Arata away.]

Thank you for saving Fuuko but that was just an accident. Fuuko will be sure not to let it ever happen again.

[Lets himself be pushed away, but just lets out a mere chuckle.]

Hmhm... Be careful, Fuuko. If you keep saying things like that, I might seriously end up saving your life someday.

[... That's true, she did end up backing herself into that last fall.]

Don't worry, Fuuko will be trying extra hard from this point on not to fall into any sort of danger. [...] And that definitely hasn't made it more likely that you will save Fuuko just because Fuuko addressed it like this!

It's practically foreshadowing! When a girl says something like this... It's the flag trigger for later on when the hero steps in to save her. That's elementary manga build-up right there.

This is nothing like a manga though so why are you bringing this up?! Just because Fuuko says something like the starfish are going to take off and fly to the stars does not mean it will happen! [Sadly.]

That's because you're stretching the limits of believably! [HM...] Besides, once I become a high class magician, I could probably make that happen.

Whilst Fuuko might have one day been amazed by this, Fuuko has already seen Draco-san do something similar with magic and starfish. It was something that Fuuko will never forget! [...] Fuuko had no idea you were a magician too, Fuuko thought you were just another weird guy.
