EP077: A Single Shadow (http://escapepod.org/2006/10/26/ep077-a-single-shadow/)

By Stephen Dedman (http://eidolon.net/homesite.html?author=stephendedman).
Read by Benjamin Grundy (of Mysterious Universe (http://mysteriousuniverse.org/)).

“I suppose you think we turn into cats and foxes when your back is turned?”

I smiled. “Only some of you - you, for example. You’re much too beautiful to be human, but you could be a cat, a flower, a tree - no, scratch that one, you’re too short.” I glanced at Hiroshi. “Maybe Shimako’s the tree-spirit,” I said, softly. Hiroshi ignored me, but Miyume covered her mouth and laughed.

“I assure you, I’m quite human,” she said. “I don’t doubt that Shimako is, too. And how many girls have you used that line on, before?”


Rated R. Contains explicit sexual content. And ghosts. Explicit sexual ghosts, really.

This one was pretty good, but the ending fell flat.  At the end he hears himself on the phone and I didn't think that was a great resolution.  I wanted to know what happened NEXT.
