Technically, Akari had lied when she told her housemates that she didn't get any sleep the previous night. She _had_ slept. And she had dreamed.

"Finally!"
Akari stood in the middle of her bedroom with her arms raised triumphantly over her head. A smartphone was clutched in her right hand, and its screen displayed an email that she'd been eagerly awaiting for three days.
The email was...

It was mid-December and the area around the shrine was calm and quiet. A thick layer of snow had covered the mountainside like a down blanket, and even the noise of the bustling city below couldn't penetrate it.
Usagi shuffled aimlessly down the...

"House meeting! House meeting! Get your asses to the front hall!"
Seshi's voice echoed down the central hallway and throughout the shrine. Everyone heard it, but they were a bit slow to react, in part because they had certainly not expected _her_ to...

"Hey, Akari, I think you should join me for a workout," Inu said from Akari's doorway. She was already dressed in tiny blue shorts and a matching sports bra. The outfit looked good on the dog spirit, as natural as a second skin.
Akari closed her...

"So what's left to do, Seshi?" Akari looked across the pile of freshly washed laundry they were folding, her purple eyes shining with expectation.
Green eyes blinked back. "For the laundry? I guess there's just our miko hakama after this, since we...

"We won't be able to do this much longer," Inu said as she jogged in place next to the shrine steps.

Inu blinked calmly and brushed her bangs back from her forehead. "Uh, it's going to get...

Akari frowned at Inu's choice of exercise, but she didn't complain aloud. That would have only made things worse. Inu was already pushing Akari and herself harder than normal and her curt tone strongly...

On the walk back to the shrine from the festival, Inara shared the results of the audience vote. She'd been running the booth during the idol contest, so she was the only one who knew the final results.
"There were 98 votes in total," she said,...
