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!

[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.

Tiring? Well, if you need help with it, let me know where you want things put, eh?

Hmm... puu... I don't know how you can help me with this, buu... Unless you have some way of helping me put this together, I might have to do this myself. [With a few more flashes, he puts more boards together, forming a semi-circle that will soon be completed.] I know what you can do! Can you put the carpeting under what I've got? I can attach it easy-peasy once you put it there.

Sure thing! [Carefully leans the walls up to set down the carpeting and make sure it's all smooth.]

All right, how's that?

Puufect! Thank you! [With a flash, he attaches the carpeting to what's currently there of the walls, then adds a few more boards onto the walls.] Puu... almost done with the walls... soon comes the roof.

Awesome. How big do these get when there's a bunch of you working on it?

Oh, it depends on whether we're building it for a family or for a single Puffski. A family gets a bigger hut. But they go up much faster when there's a bunch of us. Just a few more... [Flash, flash. Up go a few more wall panels.]

Makes sense.

In my world, we usually have ships, but my home ship, the Moby Dick held about 1600 of us, and my father and some of my brothers are about five times my height, so as you can imagine, she was really huge, eh?

Five times your height?! Was that in birdie form or as a human? [Flash, flash. The walls are finished.] Puu... could you put the roof on top, please?

As a human.

Sure thing, eh? [Gently sets it down and makes sure it lines up as well as possible!]

Wooooooowwwwww... they must be like mountain people...

Yay! Roof time! [And with a flash, the roof is on.] ...Oops! I forgot the door! Putting in the door last is a pain in the buu...

Mountain people? Well they're not as big as Little Oars Jr. Now he was as big as a mountain, eh.

Ahh.. what's the door made of?

Soooo... still mountain people.

The door is simply wood. [He begins to cut a small rectangle for the door with a few flashes.] It's just hard to hold the door in and then flash it together. If I'd just flashed it to the wall first, it would be easier.

[Laughs.] Well, Little Oars Jr. was a lot bigger than them, but sure.

Ahh... I see. Anything I can do help it?

Can you hold the door in the little opening right there? Then I can flash it together, and the hut is done!

You bet little matey. [Holds it steady for him!]

Matey? Mister, are you a pirate? Pupupu~ [With a Puffski chuckle, he makes a flash, and the door is hinged to the side of the frame.] Yay! There we go!

Aye. First division commander of the Whitebeard pirates. That's what my tattoo represents.

[And temporarily acting as Captain, but whatever. He ignores that as much as possible right now.]

Great! [Grins at the house and lightly pets the top of Fattycakes' head in reward.] It's looking good, eh?

Oooooh, cool! So you get to sail around the world and solve treasure maps, right? Sounds like fun!

Alright, time to test out the house... ready? [There's a pause, and then...] Puu buu! Puu buu! [Suddenly, he begins to roll in and out of the house, opening and shutting the door each time.]

Well, something like that, eh. [Mostly protecting islands and money laundering and more mafia-style system but whatever.]

[And he laughs.] So how's it working out?
