@ -6,12 +6,14 @@ Kuai Tungi is a stout, angular, quince-colored nakudama fisherman who wants only
One day soon after opening his business, as he rolled downstairs late one morning to begin opening up the shop, Tungi found a customer already eagerly waiting outside: a jumping-spider-spirit hung from the awning, talking softly to herself as she peered through the slatted window just below. Unable to turn away a customer, the nakudama let her in, but after ordering, she introduced herself as "Chochu" and offered him a contract: incredible power in exchange for a few, minor, rarely recurring favors for the spirit she represented. Hardly able to believe his luck, and entirely forgetting to ask for details, Tungi signed, and Chochu vanished without paying her bill.
A few weeks later, Tungi was asked his first favor by his new patron. Chochu showed up again in the morning, apologetically payed her tab, and told the nakudama that the next time he was near the shallows[^shallows] (as he was so often while fishing or laying traps), he was to swim up to a particular residence and flip change around the numbers on the door, then swim away. The diver found this a strange favor indeed, but did as he was asked with no trouble. "Is sort of thing all I'll have to do?", he wondered, as he swam back to shore after emptying his traps.

{%Consider making Tungi watch the targets' reactions sometimes so that he can tell Chochu about it and Chochu can tell his patron.%}
{%Tungi claims that he can't say who his patron is, but actually he doesn't know. Chochu won't tell him--- perhaps the spirit doesn't want to be held responsible for the pranks..?%}
{%Tungi was enlisted because a) he's amphibious, so he can get all the places and b) the last guy drowned%}
## Friends and Acquaintances
Chochu is a spirit who serves Tungi's patron as a messenger and runner of basic errands in the material plane. She's an enormous (size "small"), acorn-brown jumping spider whose features all but disappear into her fluffiness. She has a habit of ignoring people while lost in her own thoughts, being overall very absent minded, and a tendency to talk to herself about what she's thinking and/or doing. She and Tungi had a rocky relationship at the start, but now they're good friends. Among a few other favorite places, Chochu can often be found at Tungi's sushi shop when she's not in the spirit realm.
