[Today Captain Jack Sparrow is trying very hard to disguise his writing. It is ornate and rather loopy and fanciful, and therefore far different from his typical elegant hand.]

My monkey is, indeed "cute." One might also say "petite" and "charming" and "fuzzy." However, one might also say "undead." Are you certain you are up for that sort of monkey?
Regards,
Admiral Norrington

Is it a zombie-monkey? If so, will he try to eat my brains? Is he a slow-moving sort of zombie-monkey, or a fast-moving sort? It does matter a lot, as I think if it were a slow monkey, I could just walk briskly away, but I don't remember what the land-speed of a small monkey versus the speed of a young woman is should he be a fast undead monkey.
However, if the cute monkey isn't a zombie and has just died a few times, that's okay too! Is it a Hollow-type monkey maybe? Some of my best friends are death gods, so I think it's okay. If he's as cute as you say, I don't think I'd find him too scary.
Sincerely,
Inoue Orihime

No: he is not a zombified monkey by any stretch of that definition. He is, rather, an eternally cursed monkey of the fast-moving non-brain-eating sort, and his speed would be very much faster than yours or I am much mistaken.
Are you a slow-moving or fast-moving sort of young woman?
[Oh God the double-entendre there...]

I'm so sorry to hear about your monkey's curse! But an undead curse sounds much better than being a brain-hungry zombie monkey. And much less scary.
[Too bad it goes right over her head.]
I think I move about average speed. I don't hold any track records at school, but I'm not the slowest either, I think. But if the monkey is only cursed, the speed hardly matters, right? Since I won't have to worry about him trying to eat my brain.
Sincerely,
Inoue Orihime

He prefers being not-dead, actually; not many do, but he seems an exception. But an averagely-quick girl still need not fear from my monkey if she carries anything shiny about her, eh?
Helpfully,
Mr. Admiral Norrington

He really sounds like an interesting pet! If it won't trouble you, I'd like to come see him sometime! As for something shiny, is that like a good luck charm? I only have my hairclips, but maybe I can find something else too. It just has to be shiny?
Excitedly,
Inoue Orihime

Shiny and valuable preferred, actually. Are your hair clips of value? Come at once, do!
