Chinese New Year is well thought, and this is a most professionally executed banishing of demons. Well worth rereading.
Nice and quotable touches: offering it to a man standing beside him. “Happy new year, enjoy,” he said wistfully, He heard the voice of Chang Yanmei...Now it sounded like the shriek of a shrew, whining like a spoiled child when not getting its way and “Fine, I will not say I am fine.”
Wow, thank you so much. You picked out some nice quotes. I figured since it was Chinese NY it as apropos to post. I did modify it as originally it was part of my AU series where Napoleon and Illya have wives and children.
