This is my 2022 Yuletide gift for the talented Maxyfran73! I was so excited to get him for the exchange, so I wrote a piece for Lady Tianhong

Big thanks to Stygian Blue for his wonderful late night critique as well, and thanks to Maxy for the title :)

DO YOU NEED REVIEW OF GIFT

What a faNTAstic gift. Has its own ideas and executes them deliciously. Clearly a part of a larger canon but works well as a standalone. Words are tasty and the Chekhov's guns are locked and loaded throughout. Seared salmon belly nigiri for you, Snap!

Finally, someone else writes for Tianhong. My legacy~

For real though, this is a really good piece with a quick and entertaining 'issue' that is solved quite cleverly. Loved seeing these 'personal demons' materialize into tsukumogami, as that's in many cases the reason why Yokai 'invade' the human world. The writing and pace was excellent for the scribe, and is just in general a really good article.

Twas the perfect gift also, so thanks for writing this one~

Easy, not at all biased +1
