星のとなりの空け者 ~マサキ~
Fools Among the Stars: Masaki
Part One
***************
ManboP x Yama
A Yama fanfiction adaptation by Mie Tachibana
*****************
Yokai were not exactly known as the most organized of creatures. They were the complete opposite of humans who were able to form civilizations and societies. These non-mortals don't even have the patience nor the attention span to be able to arrange a group of words in alphabetical order.
And yet, a yokai company was making quite some fuss in the regions just close to the River. A company! No one has ever been able to put Yokai into such a discipline. They started work at eight in the morning and ended at four. They lined up and took turns when needed. They even used meal stubs properly!
At the head of it all is their boss, the sky god with bright eyes and puffy lips. He was usually seen seated with his back straight, fanning himself languidly despite the constantly irregular rain. It was more of a habit than anything. He was preoccupied with overseeing the work of the yokai company. He checked all their salaries and bonuses, consulted the new board of directors for new projects and promoted equality and hard work.
All this started when a group of yokai started following him around when he taught them how to tie their shoes. Now, Kazu the kitsune headed the Yokai Resource Management and was in charge of finding more employees. Jun the ame-otoko was very creative and talented and was put in charge of Research and Development. Hardworking and determined Toma the choochin-obake was put in charge of marketing. Everything was functional and logical and this made Sho incredibly satisfied.
"Attempting to cross the River in this rain...that's crazy." That was all he could say about the River.

The sky god and water god are part of my own universe for this story and is not derived from any myth or existing work.
The yokai have been adopted to this world and are more like metahumans than monsters.
