I can clear up the water thing for you. You misunderstand the use of the word "standing". Standing, in this case refers to the state of the water, not the user. Standing, or stagnant water, is water that is naturally still. Water in the bathtub doesn't move on its own, unlike the water in the ocean, which laps against the shore as waves and has its own flows and currents. A natural setting where you could find stagnant water would be somethign inland like a swamp. So, fruit users can move through standing water up to a point (it has to do with how high up on the body it is), but not moving water.

As for the stuff about races, namely Pekoms and Bepo, this is not confirmed by any means, but I believe they belong to the race known as minkmen. The mink is an animal prized for its fur, as are bears and to some extent lions. Bepo can actually be confirmed as a non-fruit user by something he said cross-referenced with something Chopper said. Chopper at one point said that despite eating the Human Human Fruit, he was not sexually attracted to human females. Keeping that in mind, while on Amazon Lily, Bepo expressed an interest in female bears while Shachi and Pengiun were fantasizing about the women they might see. This would imply that Bepo is in fact an actual talking bear and not a human in bear form.

On the note of races, toys. From what we know, fairies exist in toy lore. Note that the only people to mention fairies were toys. That being said, I believe that there is a reason we have not seen toys until now, and probably will not see them again after this. These "fairies" are the reason behind their sentience and animation. It would draw inspiration from Pinocchio, where a fairy made the puppet come alive. I would only extend it so far as their basic vitality is concerned, and not to their noses growing if they lie or anything silly like that. Given what we know, I would treat fairy magic the same as Devil Fruit powers. That is, they wear off when the user dies or is otherwise unable to control their power. They are most comparable to Moriah's zombies. So, if someone were to dismiss, defeat, or otherwise neutralize these fairies, the magic would supposedly wear off, and like the parting of a life-giving shadow from a zombie, the life-giving magic would also depart from the toys, turning Acacia into a veritable Genocide Toy Box. This is of course only my reasoning on the matter, and is in no way confirmed.

One last thing about Pappug. I might not have made it clear when I explained it a while back, but you only have half the story. The Japanese word for human is "Hito", and the Japanese word for starfish is "Hitode". As a  child, Pappug mistook the word for starfish as the word for human. Thinking he was human, he tought himself the human language, thus he can talk.
