Wild Ginger in Parting (餞別のフタバアオイ)
By Nara Moore
Art Mai-sensei

Image: Maiyoi-chan by Mai-sensei Image: Maiyoi-chan (舞宵ちゃん). A kitsune woman is standing behind a kitsune. The woman has three bushy tails, fox ears, and a purple kimono with a star and comet pattern. She has pronounced slanted fox eyes.

Quote: As the bus pulled out, I stared out the window filled with excitement and trepidation. In Tokyo, I’d find dancing and singing lessons and, more importantly, auditions for idol units. We passed by a mixture of locals and tourists visiting the castle. I felt only contempt for them. I was leaving this hick place forever!

Then, I saw an unmistakable purple kimono. What was Maiyoi-chan doing here? She hated towns. I touched the wild ginger brooch she’d given me, but pretended not to see her or her waving as I passed. How could I, after abandoning her without even saying goodbye?

“That’s my story. How pathetic. I whine about everyone abandoning me. How am I any better? My family's right. I’m worthless trash.”

Image: (Plum Poetry / 梅詩 by Mai-sensei) Ume and Shishi are wearing kimonos. Ume’s is a dark russet kimono embroidered with asymmetrical “vine and leaf” line art. Shishi’s kimono has a pattern of purple and white morning glories contrasting with the black fabric. They are kissing with their limbs intertwined.

Quote: I broke away from Tomo’s grasp, enveloping Shishi in an enormous hug. I ignored Kan-chan’s and Tomo’s watching eyes. My chilled body soaked up her warmth, and the scent of violets and sandalwood filled my head as I buried my face in her hair, driving away the spicy odor the Mayoiga favored. The lingering pull of the Mayoiga waned. Her breath warmed my neck, reminding me how much I dreaded losing her. Even with the cocoon the Mayoiga wove, how’d I forget the danger hanging over her?

Left to right: Tomo with messy blue hair and a red jacket is behind Kan-chan. Kan-chan with pink twin-tails and a puffy pink coat is behind Shishi. Shishi has light blue hair worn loosely. She is in front, holding a piece of paper. Red-haired Ume is smoking a cigarette to Shishi’s right. Ume is wearing an open military jacket. Behind them are rocks, four evergreens, and a moth-like mountain.

Quote: “House, we’ll have a feast tonight. You can do a full banquet,” I announced.

Tomo looked puzzled at my announcement, but Kan-chan ignored it and finally spoke. “Forget it; we need to leave.”

“Yeah, we’ve got to get you out of here before the house gets its hooks into us,” Tomo added.

“I don’t know what you’re so worked up about,” I said. “The house takes good care of us. It even caters to our needs. There are two more bedrooms for you and Kan-chan. And you should see the bath…”

By Nara Moore
Art Mai-sensei

Image: (“Sakura and Pine Entwined” by Mai-sensei) A man and woman stand in front of a gray wooden Torii gate. The woman on the right wears a pink wedding kimono with a sakura flower pattern. She is holding a flowering sakura sapling. The man is on the left holding a pine sapling. He is wearing a red plaid lumberjack jacket and blue jeans. He has blue hair and is grimacing.

Quote:
          Sakura Bride
          Blessed the Pine Groom.
          Entwined bough,
          Blossoms good fortune
          And eternal bliss.

“Yabai,” I thought. The realization of how precarious my position was flooded me. One wrong step and I would be swallowed by forces beyond my control. This was my last chance to flee.

Fragrant in the morning sun.
Cherry blossoms, cherry blossoms,

I'm a writer, which amounts to being a small business owner attempting to make a (meager) living off my writing. So once a week, I share one of my books in case it might resonate with some of you.

The Last Priestess of Malia is historical fiction: The people of Crete fight to save their culture and their values from the onslaught of foreign conquerors. I'll be honest, it's not light reading. But I think it's relevant for our times, perhaps painfully so.

Details and content warnings here: https://www.lauraperryauthor.com/the-last-priestess-of-malia

A paperback copy of The Last Priestess of Malia by Laura Perry, standing upright in the middle of the image. The book cover includes a picture of a Minoan priestess standing outdoors with a temple in the distance. Surrounding the book is text connected to the book by arrows. The text reads, "Ancient Minoans, Historical Fiction, Matriarchal Culture, Pagan Rituals, Powerful Priestesses, Culture Clash, Sorry, No Happy Ending "You've Been Warned)."

Missed Fortunes--second book in the Twinned trilogy--is available for pre-order through February 28th! Sorority girl Caro wants to enjoy college, learn more about her Talent, and leave her past behind. The problem is, her past won't stay in the rearview, and there is WAY more to learn about her Talent than she expected. And it might have something to do with the fact that the world is in big trouble.

https://buff.ly/3EJ4UhT

On the left is the cover to a book: Twinned Book 2, by Tris Lawrence, titled Missed Fortunes. The cover shows two people falling from a tower that is on fire, books all around them. On the right is a snippet from the story, which says:

Carolyn flips the card on the top of her deck. The Wheel of Fortune. “Change,” she says. “Things are flexible. Mutable. We have to be able to roll with events because change is coming quickly.”

Drea’s mouth snaps shut.

That was the card that came up for Drea’s birthday a few weeks back, when Carolyn offered a one-card draw—just one card to speak to what could happen in the year to come. For Carolyn, it’s significant that the same card has shown again.

She bets Drea doesn’t remember, though, so that can’t be the explanation for the sudden silence.

Art Mai-sensei

Image: Image: Utaushō (歌う閶) by Mai-sensei. A weary woman with a tired face and drooping sakura flowers in her hair is singing. She’s wearing a slightly drab pink kimono with a large sakura flower pattern.

Quote: The whispers from before were now plainly audible, the plaintive notes of a bamboo flute held by a woman who emerged from one of the sakura trees. She wore a flowing pink and rose kimono as faded as the flowers in her hair. Emerging from the other tree was a similarly dressed woman who could have been her sister. She mournfully accompanied her sister’s kagurabue flute, singing:

Sakura’s tears
Promised seed and wealth,
Water humble fields.

Arrogant boughs
Spread wide, blossoms pale;
Roots grown frail.

Last barren plum,
Wed sakura pale—
Weeping fleeting spring?

Silent branch bends,
To the bloom’s weeping call,
Spring’s friendship renewed?

Image: (Yuki Yumi by Mai-sensei) A pale woman in a white kimono with a red obo (sash) holds out her hand. She has large ice-blue eyes and white hair with sakura blossoms and hair combs. The background is black with snowflakes.

Quote: I didn’t see the owl again until I limped into a clearing overlooking the surrounding territory. I groaned; ahead, the trail dipped into a wide snowy plateau covered with acres of tangled blowdowns. I wasn’t sure I could traverse it. The owl guarded another trail heading into the forest to the right. Looking that way, I glimpsed a sliver of emerald lake in the distance below. Children’s footprints were eerily visible in the snow dusting that path.

“Yuki-san said to follow the children to water. This is what she must have meant,” I said, pointing at the prints.

“And you trust her?”

Image: Oni by Mai-sensei. Three oni stand in front of a building. Left: A blue oni with horns and a curved katana. He is wearing a fur pelt and has a scraggly beard. Middle: A green one in Samari armor. He has mismatched horns and a fireball in his hand. Right: A red oni in a blue and white military uniform and cap. His face is like a crocodile’s, and he is holding a breechloading rifle.

Quote: The katana wielder stepped forward, guarding its companions, while the other two launched attacks from where they stood. The uniformed oni raised its weapon, which spat fire with a loud crack, and something whizzed past my head. Swearing, the creature fumbled with large, clumsy fingers at the rifle’s firing mechanism. In the meantime, the green oni made a gesture with one hand, causing fire to dance in its palm.

What could I say? I’m not that big a disaster. I took her in my arms and gently kissed her. My breath was shallow, and my chest felt hot. Her lips were soft and warm. She smelled of freshly applied cosmetics. The scent of violets, sandalwood, and cosmetics would never be the same; the perfume of love and my girlfriend.

Quote: “Psst,” a girl’s voice came from my left. “Don’t go there. Old Man Tanuki-san will make you his wife. You’ll never go home.”

I looked over, and in the forest’s shade stood a girl with long, rich-reddish amber hair. The first thing I noticed was that her kimono was impractical for walking through the forest. Then it struck me: she had tawny fox eyes that almost seemed to glow. My uncle had told me, “You can tell a kitsune from a real human by how their eyes slant.” He also warned me to avoid kitsune. “They like to play mean tricks,” he had said. So I moved toward the monk, who was beckoning me to approach.
