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

...Yeah, it's nice, isn't it.

[thank god one of us sounds sure of themselves]

Does the first one read as Faith to you? Or Aeon?
floridagothic: (beautiful decline)

[ the warmth on Fenwytch's face is probably a dead giveaway, even, to whom he imagines "Hope" might have come from. he laughs, soft ] Isn't that obvious? Kaine, the entire memory is the story of the gods.

[Groans,]

Yeah, but it's about space. Shit that happened an eternity ago.

Are we really giving Wilbur Aeon???

[ not yet they aren't! ]

Alright, so if his is "Faith"... why? Is it because he's confident in his plans? Or because that belief was betrayed?
markofkaine: (don't like this)

No, it's not that, it's...

[Kaine's face scrunches in thought.]

Who'd expect that some kid hired to kill you, might be family? Out of everyone in this weirdass world to run into, even if you have no reason to trust each other just 'cause you kinda look the same...

What's faith look like if you don't have stories about gods? Maybe it's... finding meaning in a fateful meeting.

[ he's pleased; it shows ]

Faith in a lucky turn.

[WHY are you pleased]

I guess you could call it that.

[ got you participating and being clever!! ]

Well, what do I know about luck?

About as much as me.

But if literally everyone thinks aeon fits better, then - fine, I'll go with it.

I guess the bastard might be pretentious enough.

[ he's finally relaxing from the tension the sight of the tent racked him up into ] No, I think you could be right.

[ugh god people are like. relying on me or something. this is weird.]

Calling it a vague feeling's an understatement. I pulled that explanation out of my ass.
floridagothic: (out of the darkness)

You're not giving yourself enough credit. If I can bullshit this, so can you.

Not really. It's not the same. Elves don't sleep, we don't dream. Dreams are... frightening, you know? They make me uneasy. We can't understand one the way we can with a memory, and we can't tell which life they come from, either. Even though these are memories, it's still the same problem; I don't know how to interpret something that doesn't come from my own mind, that I know really happened.
markofkaine: (mild surprise)

[personal profile] markofkaine 2022-06-19 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
Does not dreaming really make that big of a difference.....

Have you ever had a dream that bothered you? Or one where it felt like it made perfect sense at the time, but when you look back on it, you can't figure out why? Everything seems so surreal and alien? That's kind of what these are like for me.
markofkaine: ('cuse me)

Re: Reading 9

[personal profile] markofkaine 2022-06-19 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
Huh.

Well, do your best.

[ ahh, you do care. he gives him what he hopes is a reassuring smile, a playful smile. as easy as slipping on a mask ] I never don't, Kaine.
