Tarot memory share [Tsuchigumo]

The room you enter this time is an ostentatious fortune tellers tent. Colourful silks drape the walls with intricate golden constellations embroidered on the ceiling. Various crystals, candles, magic 8 balls, and other superstitious sundries are scattered throughout the tent.

In the centre of the room is a table with ten chairs around it, and three cards laid out for you:

PRIESTESS, TEMPERANCE, DEVIL

[ RULES | TURN-IN ]

[ there is certainly a sense of melancholy in the air lately, huh? and Fen is backing up kind of against Kaine. don't want within ten feet of that table, sir ]

I don't wanna do this again.
markofkaine: (Long hair awkward hang)

Sharing memories?

[Or is it...? He looks at the table, the thing Fen seems to be so scared of. Steadies him with hands on his shoulders.]
floridagothic: (parasites)

[ he's just tense. little hitched breath when Kaine touches him ]

Nothing good ever comes of these things. These readings.
markofkaine: (what's going on now?)

[hnghh he's so bad at comforting touches??? noooo he still has to try though]

You don't have to go near them, then. We'll take care of this one.
floridagothic: (snake song)

[ flaws: he likes keeping secrets, and won't reveal them to anyone

a flash of vibrant green as he looks at Kaine from the corner of his eyes
]

I know it's not like before.

[ but it's a touch uncertain—because is it? being trapped in another realm, against his will, by a tyrant who forces their playthings to dance for them? ]
markofkaine: (don't like this)

[personal profile] markofkaine 2022-06-12 11:22 pm (UTC)(link)
No. But that doesn't mean you have to force yourself to deal with it.

[Trauma is bad enough for most, but for Fenwytch, it... must be extraordinarily raw]
floridagothic: (parasites)

Being in Reverie at all... sometimes it feels exactly like that place. The last time I was in a tent like this, it was probably the safest we could get, but I still didn't like it. A lot went wrong around then.
markofkaine: (Long hair pensive)

[personal profile] markofkaine 2022-06-13 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, well. Fortune tellers do have a knack for completely ☠️☠️☠️☠️ things up with their predictions.
floridagothic: (parasites)

[personal profile] floridagothic 2022-06-13 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
She was right, though.
markofkaine: (alert)

[personal profile] markofkaine 2022-06-13 05:55 am (UTC)(link)
It's not like anyone knows what would've happened if she kept her damn mouth shut. Maybe it's her fault in the first place.
floridagothic: (moving mountains)

[personal profile] floridagothic 2022-06-13 01:58 pm (UTC)(link)
... right about our pasts. I mean.

[ he's finally moving from blocking the entry, but he keeps his back to the wall, his gaze on the cards ]

She knew things about us we hadn't even told each other.
markofkaine: (grumpgrump)

[Grunts.]

Still not convinced it's not some parlour trick... Their whole deal is making it out like they know everything.
floridagothic: (snake song)

[personal profile] floridagothic 2022-06-14 05:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ he's not going to be able to really convince him without talking about things he'd prefer to not


smiles! only for a moment
]

Anyway. I should still help.
markofkaine: (awkward neck crick)

[personal profile] markofkaine 2022-06-14 06:25 am (UTC)(link)
[Kaine looks unsure for a moment. But... ugh, fine. Fenwytch is a big boy. If he wants to help his team, Kaine shouldn't stop him.]

If you're sure.

...We still need something for Temperance.
floridagothic: (out of the darkness)

[ as long as there's no devil card— ha ha ha ha. ]

What's temperance?
markofkaine: (Long hair glance)

[personal profile] markofkaine 2022-06-15 07:59 am (UTC)(link)
I dunno, I'm no magic man.

I assume what it sounds like. Self restraint. Staying mild and composed. Basically nothing like me and a lot like you.
floridagothic: (the libertine)

[personal profile] floridagothic 2022-06-15 02:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[ when your character flaw is your defining trait

he relaxes finally, slightly. so this isn't like with Madame Eva. that's a relief
]

So... a memory like that.
markofkaine: (Long hair measured)

[personal profile] markofkaine 2022-06-15 03:14 pm (UTC)(link)
['is it really a flaw though'-- man with exact opposite flaws]

Yeah. It'd be a plus if it's something people would recognize. I dunno how much you share that stuff.
floridagothic: (armor and flight)

[personal profile] floridagothic 2022-06-15 03:25 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Fenwytch Gildenguard? sharing memories? he smiles reaaaaaaally wide--a fake smile ]

Haha.... not much.
