Update: edited to add snippet.
"On Vacation" lost 2500 words today, because "spiritual spelunking" - as much fun as it is & was to write it - is too much of a detour. Read: its 2500 words don't add enough value to the plot to justify its existence (sadly). So BAU-00 is back at 10350 words.
This also has the advantage that the "job-offer from hell for Ameru" can happen on Tuesday, which is still a work day, and thus can occur in the bookstore rather than awkwardly elsewhere. Better.
However, it increasingly looks as if the snippet related to the Mishuzi-obake will become a full-fledged chapter later on. Not chapter 1, that's already set, topic-wise, but chapter 2 or later is definitely possible. :)
Snippet of today's session:
"Just because your relatives are less literal with the backstabbing than mine doesn't mean they aren't effective antagonists, Subaru-kun. So, do you want to try that pager, or shall we spend Shiro a visit after breakfast?"

And the Mizuchi-obake snippet will do very well as a Work-Chapter of its own. There's so much attached to that idea, it deserves much more space than it got as a memory paragraph-
