Zee Pruk Panich is an antiquarian with a little shop in a small town in the State of Washington. During a visit in an ancient manor to find nice objects to sell in his shop, he finds something mysterious that will turn out to be infinitely more precious. (posted on AO3) I tried my best to make you a surprise and write a oneshot (a rather long one) for Halloween. Of course, because I am who I am, there is literally no horror in this story; there is, although, some angst given by the character's circumstances. I think my tags are clear enough. Being it a oneshort, I couldn't really go as deep as I wanted but I hope you'll still appreciate what I tried to do. I recognize, my idea might be a bit peculiar (although, not really so original) but as usual, I did my best and I hope you can still appreciate it.
