Hey there, Luceti! Name's Zack. Just wanna toss in the usual mention to newcomers that the local bar, Good Spirits, is in the plaza, and it's pretty much always open if you're in need of a little something to take the edge off. We serve more than booze, so don't worry if you're underage. I run the place, along with Shizuo and the lovely ladies Buffy and Meryl. Feel free to stop by anytime!

Just checking in to see if you've got the details for the Brave Vesperia job. Yuri's back, so he'll probably be taking over soon, but I figure I may as well handle this one first.

[AND WITH THAT DONE... Since Cloud's arrival, Zack has been giving some serious thought to his weaponry. With Cloud trying to stake his claim on the Buster sword, and Zack needing some way to break the tension, it's probably about time to make a peace offering. First things first, though- he heads over to the weapon shop to visit a blacksmith. After that, he'll head to Cloud's apartment, Buster sword in hand.

Feel free to bump into him wherever! Alternatively, use this as a mingling bar post. IT IS QUITE OPEN I SAY.]

Great! [Hmm. She should probably get back to Nagisa soon... Oh, there's an idea right there.] Do you have drinks that Fuuko can take away from here? Nagisa-san would love to try something like those milkshakes, but it'll be a long time before she'll be out and about again.

Uh... actually, yeah, I think I've got some of those soda cups around here somewhere. What kind do you want to take back to her?

[Dango flavour! Ah, but would a dango milkshake exist? If dango soup doesn't, perhaps something like that will be a stretch...]

Not sure! Is there a type of milkshake that will help a person sick in bed feel better? [...] Or a dango flavoured milkshake? [Aaand she asked anyway. It's pretty hard to get the association of dangos<->Nagisa out of her head.]

Dango flavoured? Uh... maybe if you told me what a dango is. [The name isn't ringing any bells. Though he's iffy on whether or not milkshakes can help sick people.]

They're like sweet dumplings, made with rice flour. They're also cute, perhaps as cute as the starfish! [It was a stretch to ask in the first place. Isn't there some sort of miracle milkshake which cures all ailments?!]

[R... rice flour... milkshake...?]

...No, sorry. We definitely don't have those.

Fuuko thought it might not be possible, though Fuuko inquired anyway just to be on the safe side!

[Well then, dango milkshake dreams shattered--] How about just strawberry?

Gotcha! Strawberry milkshake, coming right up.

[And he'll be mixing that, mixing, that... into a soda cup it goes! With a pink straw to boot.]

Here you go! Hope your friend gets better soon.

[Clapping her hands together quickly before actually taking the cup, and then taking a quick sip.

...She needs to check Nagisa will like it after all.]

Another winning milkshake Zack-san! After tasting this she'll definitely get better in no time.

Great! Someday you'll have to bring her by and introduce her then, too.

Absolutely! Nagisa-san would love to come by sometime and say hello. After tasting this she'll definitely want to come and thank you in person Zack-san.

[NOW she should head back... But these milkshakes are very good. HMMM...] Zack-san, would you like to join the Starfish Festival?

...Starfish Festival? What's that?

[Is everything related to starfish with this girl?]

[Pretty much--] It's a festival dedicated to celebrating the appeal and wonder of the starfish! It'll be a truly wonderful occasion you know. Fuuko was wondering if you might want to make some more milkshakes and other drinks for the festival!

Oh, sure! Sounds like fun. I ran a mini-bar at the beach party during the summer, so I can definitely do it again. Just let me know when you need me!

Fuuko will be sure to contact you when the time comes closer Zack-san, thank you for participating!

[And with that, Fuuko leaves for real this time. She gives Zack one last wave before disappearing out the door and returning home with the milkshake in hand.]
