Kabamaru
With his cheeks puffed and his eyes wrinkled from a lifetime of laughter and tears, the old moon Kabamaru, here since the Earth's first days, has seen all before. He holds no regrets of the past, no judgement of the present, and no worries of the future. Of all the moons we know, he is the most jovial and plays the most tricks. He'll do anything to make you laugh and look all wrinkly like him... with all the more wrinkles for "very important" people. This is why we call him the Fiercely Jolly Moon.

Of all the moons we know, kabamaru (whatever the name of that big cat in Sarah's calendar is) is the most jovial, and plays the most tricks. He'll trick you into thinking something had disappeared only to reveal it's been right there all along. He'll do anything it takes to make you laugh and put wrinkles around your eyes, and he certainly won't put up with any tears. This is why we call him the Fiercely Jolly Moon

Kabamaru doesn't care how important you think you are or how much you cry, and this is why we call him the Fiercely Jolly Moon.
