Hi Ken!

Walked to the train station again, got somewhat damp, went to the office, ate a beef and vegetable bowl with multiple vegetables, did a customer call that didn’t last forever, walked home in wind but not rain.

Read (novella): The River Has Roots (Amal El-Mohtar): Two sisters lived by the river that flowed out of Arcadia, so it’s not surprising they got involved in fairy tale murder ballad events. I spotted references to at least two fairy tales, and probably missed a bunch because I’m not a very analytical reader, but the story is all its own thing.

Read (manga): Box of Light vol 1 (Seiko Erisawa): There is a convenience store between the worlds of the living and the dead, staffed by people from both sides and haunted by outer darkness, salespeople who won’t take know for an answer, and of course the dying. Despite that, it’s not a particularly morbid manga, more supernatural workplace drama.

Written (catgirl): 166.
