    Summary

    When Xuanzang spotted the bundle of monkey skins dangling from the trapper’s pack, his first instinct was to flinch. But his second was to catch the man’s arm and say, urgently, “Your pardon, honored sir. Would it be possible to ask you a few questions about your line of work?”

    or

    Tripitaka acquires a manual entitled "On the Training of Monkeys." Bizarrely, this does not backfire on him.

    Summary

    Luke Castellan had lived once before. In the before, he was a she, and she had once read a book series where gods were real and monsters ran around creating chaos.

    It was a fun read.

    It wasn’t so fun living it. Especially as the villain.

    He wasn’t so worried, he was pretty sure he could change his fate. It was a simple plan: don’t act like book Luke.

    He was a firm believer of free will, you see.

    But in a place where Fate is personified, it was proving to be a little bit more difficult than expected to enact this plan.

    (Note: Roman gods ≠ Greek gods.)
