I loved the fantasy of this story! The transformation to an instrument Ayame loved and to end up in the hands of someone who appreciated and cared for her, was obviously the best life experience ever.
I suppose if you have transform into something else, a musical instrument is a good choice. And guitar is the best music instrument. I might be biased, though. 😉🤣
I love this story, Bill. The way you subtely infuse Japanese culture makes them even better. I recently watched the following horror short film about Setsubun and thought about your stories. It's not too scary and not full of gore:

Excellent story. I agree with Brian that you did a great job getting Japanese culture into it. Thanks for a great Sunday morning read!
Such a great story!
Nice little fairy tale, Bill. I can think of worse things to be than a guitar!
“Fill my heart with song, Let me sing forevermore”. As far as mistakes go, Ayame Makino made a good one.
Also, Zebra Rounds sounds tasty!
I loved this magical story. There are some brilliant lines in here, too - the opening sentence pulled me right in. Thanks for the fun read, Bill!

Japan is my bucket list country. It will likely never happen, but a guy can dream 😁
