[Lately all Seto can think about is home, probably because he has nothing better to do when laying in his bed. Images of what's left of the cities and small villages flash through his mind. Everything is so dominated by the wildlife he has no idea what it could have been like for those who lived there before...whatever happened to his world.

But it dawns on him, other people must've lived in an alternate Japan right? So why not ask them? It'll give him something to do too so might as well.]

I've heard that some people here are from Japan. A different Japan than other's but they're all similar in some way and I was wondering...what's it like there? Are there a lot of people? Is the red tower special?

[He goes quiet for a moment then lets out a soft, almost sad sounding chuckle] I'm sorry, I'm just a little curious... [A pause] O-Of course I wouldn't mind hearing about other worlds too. Anything is fine..

[Action]

[Once the sun goes down, Seto will be out on the roof of community building three, just laying there to stare up at the stars. To be honest it brings him comfort when he stares at shining lights in the sky. For the past ten years at home, they have been his only company since his grandpa and him never really talked all too much, especially near the end of his life.

In any case, he'll be up there for a good majority of the night, he may even fall asleep]

Eck--what? [WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN] Why did they call it that?

Eckeenoderm is apparently the scientific name for starfish, or something! Fuuko wasn't aware of it until the smart person brought it up. [It is a scary word. ECKEENODERMFJGLASJ!!] Fuuko is still in disbelief that someone else would know so much about starfish.

Wow...I had no idea that was their scientific name. [Let's just stick with starfish, much easier to pronounce |B] Well I'm sure there are a lot of people in your world who study them!

[Fuuko nods, she hadn't the slightest clue that was their scientific name. Of course the nodding can't be seen--]

Do you think so?! There are probably starfish specialists out there, somewhere...

Uh huh! I'm sure there are. [ ... ] Can I ask you something? Why do you like starfish so much?

[No, Seto, don't--!!]

The starfish are just so cute, what's not to like about the starfish?! They have five points which make up the true appeal of the starfish, and they can come in many different colours and shapes, so each and every one of them is unique!

[After a little more starfish rambling, Fuuko's normal voice is replaced by a more airy manner of speech.]

Haaaaaahaaaaa~ Heeeeeeeh~ Wooooow~

[Oh god what has he done. He just listens to her ramble on then blinks when she just starts making weird sounds. W-What's wrong with her?? Is she okay??

He taps the microphone and in a worried voice] F-Fuuko?

Hwaaaaaah~ [There's a few more odd noises before she takes account of the tapping and comes back to reality.]

Fuuko suddenly feels very refreshed!

[Confused Seto is confused]

W-What happened? Are you all right?

Fuuko is fine, why do you ask? Is there something wrong?

[Starfish trances are totally a daily thing for her, is there a problem she isn't seeing to this?]

Y-You were making all those weird noises after talking about starfish...

[He has yet to get used to these episodes of hers]

Fuuko was just happy to be reminded of how wonderful the starfish really are.

[Said tentatively. No one has really picked up on her trances being a thing before now.]

Oh! Haha, you're cute Fuuko.

[He chuckles a little]

That might be so, but not as cute as the starfish!

[Because starfish are just amazingly cute and cuter than anything else!]

What if you're equally cute?

[Seto can't exactly say that starfish are as cute as Fuuko thinks but they are cute]

Then this is possible, just like how the starfish and the Big Dango Family are equals too!

[But can she really match the cuteness of a starfish? That's quite the compliment to say she can!]

Ah--you like dangos too Fuuko??

[Another dango lover like Nagisa? Oh boy]

Not quite! Whilst Fuuko acknowledges that the starfish are equal in appeal to the Big Dango Family, Fuuko is not exactly a fan of them!

[Not exactly a lover of them, more like a supporter?]

Oh, I see. So you don't like them as much as Nagisa does?

[Well still we have a dango fan and a starfish fan. And they're his neighbors]

That is correct! Similarly, Nagisa-san respects the appeal of the starfish, but probably not as much so as the Big Dang Family.

[Sounds like it could be a sitcom. A bad sitcom.]

I'm glad to hear that you both support each others things! How long have you known Nagisa?

[~~/their theme song plays~~]

Fuuko has known Nagisa-san for quite a long time! In the past, Nagisa-san helped Fuuko with something very important.

[Not that Nagisa remembers that time anymore. Or. Well. Much of anything about her.]

Really?? What did she help you with, if I may ask?

[He's just a curious little beaver]

[Prepare to be enlightened by a starfish, little beaver.]

Nagisa-san and another of Fuuko's friends helped invite people to onee-chan's wedding. Fuuko was happy so many people showed up. We gave her the best send off ever!!

I'm glad to hear that! What was her wedding like? Was it really nice with so many people?
