Two to Tango 

Before Emily and Raymond were reluctant allies, they were strangers who met under the worst possible circumstances. 

This week, instead of an essay about craft or worldbuilding, you're getting complete story.

"Two to Tango" is a side story from the Emily Voss universe - Emily's first day in New York, her first meeting with Raymond, and a possessed woman who throws furniture. 

It's about 3,500 words. Takes maybe 15 minutes to read. And it shows exactly how their partnership began: with mutual professional disdain, a flying sofa, and the grudging realization that maybe they're both better at this job than they thought. 

If you like competent demon hunters who argue while fighting evil, you'll want to see where it goes from here.

That's how Emily and Raymond met. Not destiny. Not fate. Just two exorcists stumbling into the same problem at the same time and figuring out they might need each other. 

In Past Mistakes, their partnership has evolved. They trust each other more. They argue less (but not much less). And when things go truly sideways, they're the only people each other can call. 

Next week: Why urban fantasy doesn't need to be (and shouldn't be regarded as) a guilty pleasure.
