I kind of have a question for everyone. 

My friend Hajime left some things in front of me here, you know, scissors, glue, paper...things like that. I don't know what to make with it.

What would you guys make with it?

 I've been here awhile. Do you think people at home miss you?

I mean, I wonder if my friends miss me.

My dad said that

I know I didn't know them very long but I was glad to have them. They were so nice and welcoming. I miss school and having things to study. I miss my friends...even my stupid brother. I guess I'm feeling a little homesick. I mean, it's been awhile since animals have tried to chew on me. Who knew I'd miss that?

This place is really dangerous for someone like me. We had a fight with the Navy and I was completely useless. I was scared then. I've been scared here a lot. What am I supposed to do in a situation like that?

Ah, I'm sorry for disturbing everyone by writing out my thoughts.

[ Here's a voice that no one's heard from a long time... ]

Um hey... so it's me Calvin. The uh, 'lizard with his tail on fire' as a person called me once. I'm... not sure what happened but my head hurts. Did I wander off somewhere and lose track of time? --If you're worried, no you don't have to, I think I'll be okay. I'm just a bit confused? I'm pretty sure I ended up walking forward but ended up back where I started...? That... doesn't make any sense I'm sorry. I'll try to figure this out. But hm. Some things are also just meant to not be understood, aren't they? [ The Mystery Dungeons come to mind... It's not like this was the first time he's whited out and ended up back somewhere. ]

So... There was something else I wanted to ask. What was it again? Oh yeah, hey could you guys maybe tell me about sea life and what you do best? I'm used to traveling, but I've usually kept grounded! But I want to be useful... These boats don't look built for my size, but there's gotta be something I can do. And I want to think of that first before joining up with anyone!

[ There's suddenly a swelling of pride in his voice, which previously sounded confused and somewhat unsure. ]

But don't you worry! I may be young, but I'm already a seasoned explorer! Water can't be that much more difficult than land! [ --Even if it is quite the element to deal with; especially for him. ]

[ ooc: I'll shortly be getting to my really old tags too from my previous post; I'm sorry for the hideously long wait everyone! School murdered me but now it's PIRATES TIME. ]

Please don't let Miss Tojiko or Miss Futo see or hear this, Miss Journal.

[Link started his entry attempting to block Tojiko and Futo from listening in. Hopefully neither of them would have reason to visit the Hey! Listen! while he was getting advice.]

I want to go to the Masque Ball Mister Dog talked about. The one Corsair Kingdom. I need to know what I have to do to go and what I have to wear. And what my date has to wear. It's really important so please, if you know, tell me. I'll trade you a favor if you want me to. Or find you something you need. I'm good at finding things.

[Aya has drawn something he found at the last island he was at.]

I'm going to start learning more about the plants and flowers around here, so I thought it would be good to share whatever I find with the rest of those stuck here. If anyone has more information about this, I'd appreciate it being sent my way.

I've been wondering about this for a while.

What are other worlds like when it comes to mermaids and people who live underwater? I want to know how similar or different I am to them.

I've already heard about someone named Ariel. [A story she thinks is kind of dumb.]

Some of my crew has told me a bit, too, but that's all.
