Looking at those pages, I’m not buying yuki-onna at all (the snow being only temporary, and she doesn’t retain any aspect of it).
And if anything, she’s the “dead” opposite of a onryō — a vengeful spirit while enfleshed, she unnaturally attains the afterlife but attacks the inhabitants, who duly cast her back to her proper plane of existence.

Nope, not gonna make hentai anime references, nyao. Nuh-huh, no, not gonna do it at all. You all can go Google “futanari” yourselves, nyao.

And no, I am NOT going to ask if Shaenon ever served in the USMC. Get a life, people!

From another person, Mell’s final line would be a jokey repudiation of mortality, a schmaltzy declaration of esprit de vivre in the face of the most inevitable. But in her case she’s actually just transparently, callously dismissive of dying, as if she’s above the rules by now. (Not without reason, of course.)

Mell is definitely the sort of person to steal most of the sheets.
