    Summary

    “'Papa, Candlewick is back!' Pinocchio said gleefully.

    Geppetto turned to face the child in the corner. He was still slumped over, greasy strands of dark hair falling forward onto his face.

    'The Podestà’s boy…?'

    The boy looked up, eyes alight with a rage that surprised Geppetto. His face had thinned with age, but the rest of his features were all the same—horse teeth and a snub nose.

    He had always found Candlewick an odd name for a child."

    Or, how Candlewick slowly makes his way into Geppetto's family.

    Summary

    It’s like Reigen’s been waiting for the question. He stops dead on the pavement, grips Mob by the shoulders, and stares down into his eyes with an expression as haunted as though every ghost the pair of them has ever exorcised has taken up residence behind it. “Mob,” he says. “Mob,” he says again. “Tell me, Mob. Look at me and tell me. Tell me truthfully. Do I look cursed to you?”

    Mob looks at him, and tells him truthfully. “No.”

    “Well, you didn’t look very long,” says Reigen. “Let’s just stand here for a moment, like so, and you can have another look, a nice long look, and really think about it...”

    (There's nothing strange about being called back to exorcise the same haunted photocopier six days in a row. It must just be a very haunted photocopier.)

    I've no idea if/when I'll ever use this knowledge, but it is too good to pass up.

    If Sherlock Holmes is so good at deduction, surely he can work out that he's fictional.

    Summary

    This is a world in which Mob and Reigen’s paths have never crossed, in which 10-year-old Mob found psychic guidance in the form of the aging, retired tv personality Keiji Mogami, in which Reigen followed through on his plans to close the Spirits and Such Agency, in which a cruel twist of Mob’s powers forces him to confront how dangerous he really is.

    10 year old Shigeo Kageyama has vanished, his trail instantly cold, and his case gathers dust in police archives as a kidnapping never solved. Four years pass before a chain of events causes his path to cross with that of the despondent, unfulfilled fake-psychic-turned-fake-investigator, Arataka Reigen. Reigen finds himself in over his head caring for an escaped victim of abuse who, for reasons unfathomable, has been taught to believe his very existence is a horrifically dangerous thing…

    I read this years ago, and I really need to review it again. 1) Because it's been a hot minute and I've missed a lot of updates >__<, and 2) this genuinely inspires me and I want to take notes. I hope to someday write stories as immersive as this.
