Penultimate chapter! Thought this would be the last one, but it ended up running a little longer than expected.

Excellent Youkai.

Not a whole lot of feedback, but here area couple of things I noticed. I probably missed some things because I was distracted by reading the chapter itself. :)

QuoteEight hours by train from Nishinomiya to Aomori, then another two hours on a local line from Aomori to Okinomiya -- the closest city we could reach via public transportation, where we spent the night last night.
This seems a little odd because the clarification is opened with an em dash, but closed with a comma. I'd use an em dash to open and close.

Quote"I should make her put her proper pajamas off, but I don't want to make her stay up any longer if she's so worn out,"

Thanks regardless. Feedback's been kind of light in general of late. =P

This was... I was...

You know, I don't think I have any idea what I was thinking when I wrote this? o_o

QuoteEight hours by train from Nishinomiya to Aomori, then another two hours on a local line from Aomori to Okinomiya -- the closest city we could reach via public transportation -- which is where we spent the night last night.

Other note is fixed as well, but I'm too lazy to quote it out. =P

Just two typos to report:

QuoteSeem like they like you to me,
Seems to me that they like you?

QuoteWe were only hardly introduced last night, right?"
We were barely introduced last night, right?

Quotehis cousins have all been cooped up inside almost the entire last week straight
A bit awkward, a lot of modifications (inside, almost, entire, last week, straight)

Quotethere's no teasing in this, now, and I swallow at the serious gaze she's giving me
Maybe remove the first comma?

QuoteThere are plenty of places nearby, but in the rain....
Wait, is it raining or are you referring to since it's been raining?

QuoteWell, she'd figured out Asahina-san, so steel myself.
Missing an "I"?

QuoteBut I've learned to not let what I've learned
Repeat of learned

This chapter feels a little incomplete, like there's no additional fallout from the revelations or shifts in the group dynamic (sequel? epilogue?). Also the talk with Rika seems to have been brought up, but nothing really done with it. Other than that, pretty enjoyable.

Thanks for the feedback. Not calling out line-by-line since a. most of them are straight typo fixes and b. I forgot to record the changes as I made them. =P
