OMG YAY GEN FIC! Plus Keiko! Plus Ghostbusters!!! OMG anon, you are great! I was in love from the second I saw the title of this and I knew it wouldn't disappoint

Oh man, I would totally freak if I was in Sho's shoes. He handled it a lot better (initially) than I could ever have. A haunted house? FREAKY. But I definitely enjoyed Sho's interactions with the other Arashi members. LOVED that Keiko was a huge fan of Sailor Mars, ESP her line about what Rei did when she wasn't Sailor Mars (She vanquished evil spirits!) which made it even more perfect. The intensity of the attack the second time when Sho's trapped in his room was SO GOOD. I was really scared for him until Keiko came and saved the day. LOL though at the left behind spirit. But yesssss, at least he had another reason to call Keiko. :D (Omg, meant to add in. LOVE THAT THEY HAVE AN EXTERMINATOR FLOOR. DYING. way to address a problem.)

Basically, everything that astrangerenters said! This was a delightful read, with some great references and I really enjoyed the playful supernatural feel to it. It didn't get too dark but it was kinda spooky and suspenseful in places.

Somehow this is really scary for me, but I read on through the end and oh, yes, so great! I love how Sho held on at first until his 'situation' got very frightful--so very Sho. And his 'helpful' friends lol! And I LOVE LOVE Keiko here; as said above, being a badass ghost exterminator and just saving the day (constantly!) :)

This was so hilarious, anon, and now I want Sho to star in all the scary movies exactly as he is here. I loved all the details about his work with Aiba/Ohno (Aiba's off-the-wall conclusions ("Electricity sure is amazing!") OH, AIBA. ♥) and how long Sho remained in denial about his haunted house and the fact that haunted houses are the norm because the company wants to save money (and Nino respects them for that!). I also love everything Nino and Jun did, even when they were at their most unhelpful, as well as every mention of Sho forgetting the discount, because I would always be literally screaming in my head "ASK THEM ABOUT THE DISCOUNT, SHO!" And then he wouldn't and then I would die laughing.

"This isn't flirting," she said, her expression stone-cold. "I will cancel your decontamination if you call me for any other reason."Your Keiko is flawless. Especially, as everyone mentioned, all the Sailor Mars references. Sho antagonizing his spirits was kind of the best because it ultimately leads to that creepy last ghost scene and the
