Yuki

“The troop's hygiene is impeccable and entirely Yuki's fault.”

A River ape of The Old World

The living story

The story so far

Yuki's washing began — the stories say — with one sandy potato and one fussy infant, herself. The habit spread like all good habits do: by example, and by Yuki's extremely firm example.

Happening now

She has expanded to the hot springs at the troop's edge. The evening soak is now the troop's great social hour, and Yuki — scrubbing someone's shoulders — is its host.

What may come

The infants she taught are teaching infants. The washing will outlive her. She finds this deeply satisfying and says so, often, while scrubbing.

Why someone keeps Yuki

  • because she made hand-washing troop law before it was cool
  • because the hot-spring soak is the troop's great social hour and she's the host
  • because her standards are impeccable and her shoulders-scrubs are legendary

The Old World

The monkeys of Africa and Asia: baboons with opinions, mandrills wearing the sunrise on their faces, macaques who have learned every human trick worth stealing. Old troops, old grudges, older grooming debts.
