The Welcoming Party of Mesomeso
6. the second youkai

You are the one who hates meetings like these and votes like these but, even worse, waits like this and you're not in the mood to wait at all. So you vote no because no way would that girl ever pass your little game and so she's automatically dropped a few rungs and he doesn't care beyond that at all. So his vote is no but he won't complain if the tide turns against him; he'll just whip her into shape afterwards because a human might escape his game after fourty-nine days but not a youkai. She'll be eternally damned.
