puubuu | [Voice] Fluffy New Feather

[A high-pitched, almost cartoony-cute voice comes out from the journal. Fattycakes records his first journal entry where he woke up, some distance away from the village. He doesn't seem to be aware that others can hear the recording, however.]

Puu! Hello! This thing has a record button, so I guess it's recording! Yoo-puu! Yuppuu, I think it's working!

So... Hello, strange new diary! My name is Fattycakes, and instead of going home, I seem to have ended up in a new world! A new world where I have wings and can talk to humans! I'm excited to be able to talk to humans! Normally all I could do is puu and buu, but now people can understand me!

And wings! They are fluffy and white! I want to be able to fly, buu! But they kind of hurt right now... maybe I'll wait to try and fly later.

I see a village... that seems like the perfect place to scoot to next! With my new talking power, it'll be easy to ask the humans where I am! So, I will be scooting off to the village now! I'll tell you what I find there later, new diary! Bye-bye!

Yay~ Thank you!

I normally eat the Pura leaf. Puffskis pack the seeds with them when they travel, and I have some seeds I didn't plant by the other huts. But I like fruit and sweet things, too! Just no chocolate. It's too strong for me. [He's doing just fine on Marco's shoulder, no wobbling or anything. Puffskis are clingy for things with no hands or feet.]

You're quite welcome~ [Pats his head with a single finger like Marco's father often did with him. (Marco's father is ginormous).]

Fruit and sweets, no problem. It's smart that you guys bring the seeds with you, I don't know what I'd do if I wound up some world without my kind of food, eh.

Puuu~ [He wiggles a little upon being petted.] Yes, Puffskis always bring a little settlement kit whenever they move to another world. It consists of the materials for the hut, some Pura leaves, and some Pura seeds. What happens from there is up to the community or the traveler.

[Oh cute wiggling. That of course gets a little more pets as Marco tries to take a good look at the leaves and seeds to see if he can recognize them under another name or if they're similar to something he knos.]

So have you traveled a lot before this?

[The seeds look a little like sunflower seeds, but smaller. The leaves look very large and broad.]

Yes! I've been on many adventures. I mostly travel to watch things happen and have some fun and get some stories to tell my friends, but I help out where I can! One time, I led a bunch of Puffskis into a villain's castle to get the layout of his place. It was intense!

[Awesome. For now he'll consider them Pura.]

Oh? It sounds like it! Was it dangerous or did you do it when he wasn't home to play it safe?

We weren't sure if he was around, but we were short on time, so we had to go in no matter what. He ended up putting me in his pocket! I got out, though. We were able to report the layout of the castle so the humans could come in and save the day! Hooray!

Good job! [Another head pet.] What kind of villain was he?

I didn't catch all that he did. I just know he was a bad man who was attacking my friend's fortress, and he was bad for the kingdom.

[He gives a small hop.] Puu, how close are we to the place now? Sorry, sometimes it's hard to tell how close or far things are when traveling by human. I've got a good sense of distance, but I get a bit thrown off when moving faster sometimes.

Oh ah, let me think. How far are your hops? Or do you measure via the time it takes you?

[Marco has a weird system of measurement, see also Norma's recent freak out post.]

Um... puu... I never really thought about that... I just know whether something is close or far. But I think I'm closer to measuring it in time than in hops, since my hops aren't very far. Are we a few minutes away, or more minutes away? [Well, it's not like he has a watch, so he can't give a precise measure of minutes...]

A few minutes by my normal pace. Running would be seconds, but you might fall off.

Puu, a few minutes? That's good! I can't wait to start building~ [He's looking around from his shoulder perch, taking in the sights of the town.]

You like constructing, huh?

[Marco suspects it's more that Puffskis, or at least Fattycakes, are very excitable and enthusiastic, but that's cool too.]

Hmm... a little. It's just a thing I do quickly, but I'm always excited to settle in a new place. It's always fun to set up a community in a new world.

And to do missions right? [Now that they've reached the building, Marco looks around for a good safe area to help set up the hut.]

Puuu... missions are fun every once in a while. I mostly like to follow humans around as they go about their business, though. And sometimes, their business involves missions like fighting and things. [He hops off of Marco's shoulder and begins to search for a good place for his hut.] Let's see, let's see, where to put it... somewhere sunny is nice...

Sunny? [A head tilt and then checks up in the sky to check where the shadows are for different parts of the day.]

How about over here. The building won't cast a shadow on it here, but will that be too hot?

Puu... you're right... Where would you put it? [Fattycakes doesn't seem totally sure where to put the hut himself.]

[Strokes his chin.] I'm part bird, so I'm more partial to shade for protection, but with the hut, it's already is like that, ne?

Hee~ Marco's a birdie~ [After his little moment, Fattycakes scoots over to a spot next to a tree.] I think I like this place. It's far enough away for privacy, but close enough for me to scoot into town. There's also enough sun for the Pura leaf here.

[Grins.] Yes, I am.

[Nods his head in agreement.] All right, that looks like a great place to me. Let's see... [Sets everything down to start building the hut and hands Fattycakes pieces and the seeds so he can help too.]

Puu! Now you get to watch my magic in action! [Fattycakes begins standing up pieces of the circular walls and, with a flash of magic, putting them together.] See? I can make walls!

[Eyes widen a little and then laughs in delight.]

Wow! That is some pretty amazing magic, eh! Do you have other kinds?

It depends on the situation. Our magic is mostly stuff that protects us. [He puts another few boards together.] Puu... building is a bit tiring sometimes, though. This is why Puffskis help each other.
