crowspace | Tarot post mark 5.

[Oh hey this again. It was pretty accurate the last time, and now she's in Haven, so another question couldn't hurt. So Lapis shuffles the deck, focusing on her question before handing it back to Eater.]

... How will the relationships I've made in Haven go? [She's never talked to people so much before, so she's curious.]

"These are those cards that are so big in Honto Ri, correct? I wonder if they can tell if I'm ever going to get past the constant headache phase of living here."

[Seven cards are dealt, and Eater reads them off one by one.]

The past is represented by the Six of Wands. The Six of Wands is a card of pride, triumph, your own acclaim. You are good at what you do, and you know it.

The present is represented by the Queen of Pentacles. The Queen is a person you know, yourself, or simply an energy that pervades a situation. She is a nurturing person who cares for others and gives of herself when others are in need; she is practical, without pretension, and trustworthy. All Queens are positive people to be around.

You are helped by the Wheel of Fortune. Events change quickly and the situation is not under your control. There is a grand scheme of things, and in this position that scheme will end up in your favor. The good things you do reward you.

You are hurt by the Six of Pentacles. Two sixes in a reading indicate a theme of growth. The six is a dual card in that it represents both having and not having resources, power, and knowledge; in the case of relationships, it indicates that treating every person you meet identically is the wrong path. Every person is unique, and your relationships with them should be unique as well.

The others around you are shown by the Tower. Was there, perhaps, a great calamity recently? The Tower card shows an explosion in a literal tower, and people falling off - it is the card of sudden, often unwanted change and a downfall from previous circumstances.

Your actions are shown by the Seven of Cups. The Seven of Cups represents having many options. There are quite a few people in Haven, yes? Don't limit yourself. Having many relationships, some strong, some weak, some with people you'd normally seek out and some with people you're surprised to even talk to, can be a good thing; you don't have to be a social butterfly but being connected is helpful in the face of adversity.

The results: the Two of Cups. The card stands completely for forming relationships. Making a connection, allowing yourself to form a relationship.

As far as the whole reading goes, I would say that forming relationships in Haven will lead you in positive ways. There are a great many people in all shapes and personalities, and you may find friends in unlikely places.

"Is that the question you'd like to ask?"

She can't tell if it's sarcasm or not.

[Just. Staring at that Tower card for a moment.]

... You're very accurate. But I shall try not to limit myself.

I hope to have been of some help to you, miss.

She nods, her deadpan not breaking, "It is. They have me maintaining a poorly hacked together communications network with equipment that doesn't interface mine well due to magic vs. technology. Its quite stressful making sure it doesn't crash."

After Ruri shuffles, Eater deals out seven cards.

"The Five of Cups represents your past situation. It is a card of loss and regret.

Your current situation is represented by the Emperor. The card represents being in control, maintaining structure, law and order. Without you, the system would crumble.

You are helped by the Four of Cups. The card normally represents self-absorption and apathy, so seeing it in this position is harder to explain without its counterpoint.

You are hurt by the King of Pentacles. The King supports others' enterprises, assumes responsibility and takes care of others. In this combination, are you perhaps dealing too much with this project you care nothing for and not enough on your own hobbies and things you enjoy?

Others around you are shown by Judgment. It is a card of absolution, atoning for past mistakes and having a fresh start.

Your actions should reflect the Eight of Pentacles. This card is about applying yourself, working hard and being involved in what you do.

The result is shown by the Page of Wands. The Page is enthusiastic and creative, ready to try new things."

Four of Cups represents your past situation. It is a card of self-absorption and apathy to the world around you.

Is there any way that you could spend less time on the duties you were assigned and more on the projects that you would find enjoyable and fulfilling? Delegation, or some other way?"

Hey. *picks up the cards and starts shuffling* To be honest... I have no idea what I'm doing with my life. I can't find a direction when I'm not doing something stupid. *hands them back* Can you help?

I will try my best.

[Eater deals seven cards.]

Your past is shown by the Eight of Swords. Restriction, confusion, and powerlessness. You were at a loss for what to do with your life, as you said.

Your present is shown by the Eight of Pentacles. A run of eights suggests a theme of change. This card represents diligence and increasing knowledge; pursue greater understanding and be willing to work hard to achieve a direction.

You are helped by the Sun. You are naturally a person with high energy, a person who is confident and can become great, the center of attention.

You are hurt by the Three of Swords. Heartbreak, loneliness. Do you feel the absence of someone in your life?

Others around you are shown by the Chariot. They assert themselves and their will, determined to succeed and reach the goals they've set.

Your actions should reflect the Page of Wands. The Page is creative, courageous, and enthusiastic. The Page is unafraid to set out on a new venture, to take risks, or to go into anything with enthusiasm.

The results: Judgement. Rebirth and finding one's true calling or vocation.

The outcome seems positive! To get there, the cards suggest a combination of both hard work and confidence in what you do. You are blessed with the ability to be bright and full of vitality, and enthusiasm is far more important a trait than you think.

I hope that was of help?

Uhm... sure.

[It's a game, right? Just for fun? Terra's got no problem with shuffling cards, even if tarot cards are a fair bit bigger than more typical playing cards. After a short time, it's handed back.]

Is anything going to go the way I expect it to?

[That's a fairly vague question isn't it. Terra's going to learn specifics one day.]

[Eater hmms thoughtfully and deals out seven cards.]

For your past, the Four of Pentacles. Trying to control events and block change. Resisting the flow of the world.

For your present, the Seven of Wands. Defiance and conviction. Being absolutely sure that you are right.

You are helped by the Magician. The Magician is the one who takes action, doing what he needs to do and having an impact on the world around him.

On the other hand, you are hurt by the Ten of Swords. Being at the absolute lowest point, having nowhere to go but up and feeling powerless and like a victim of fate. These two cards seem to be at odds, don't they? But even at your lowest point, you can still take some action to bring you up again.

The others around you are shown by the Wheel of Fortune. Fate, those people in your life, those are things that are out of your control. Destiny will do what it wishes.

Your actions should reflect Judgment. Letting go of the past and looking to the future. New possibilities and a fresh start.

Your results are shown by the Ace of Swords. A card of intelligence and fortitude, the Sword suit cuts through confusion to understand the truth of the situation.

In regards to your question: I could tell you without cards that not everything will go your way. In fact, it's likely that you'll find most events turn out in ways you didn't plan. You could sit around bemoaning that you weren't prepared, or you could adapt to what happens and move on with your life; it may even turn out better than what you planned for.

[Thoughtful silence, weighing what she says about her cards versus what he's doing and what he's been planning to do. Not only that, what he'd already been told of his future. ... And how badly it goes.]

Well.. if my plans involve saving a world, and I've been working towards doing something about that, that's not really a good thing to hear, I'll admit.

[He rubs a hand through his hair, frowning a little.]

I guess we'll see how it turns out. Thanks.

I see... I do hope things turn out well for you, and that you do your best.

[Berserker moans uncomfortably while she's shuffling the deck, and eventually slides it back across the table to Eater. In lieu of verbalizing her question, she takes out a small piece of paper and a pencil, and draws a heart next to a question mark on it.]

[Eater deals out seven cards without even a blink.]

Your past is represented by the Page of Wands. Someone who is bold, creative, unafraid to take risks and venture into unknown territory, to do what has never been done.

Your present is represented by the Lovers. The Lovers represents both love and connection, as well as searching for ones' own beliefs and values.

You are helped by the Seven of Swords. In this position, the card tells you to work on your own, leaving a unpleasant group or a losing situation. While often negative, sometimes one does better leaving others behind.

You are hurt by the Five of Swords. This card stands for discord between a group - as an accompanied by the Seven of Swords, these two cards represent a toxic situation you need to leave.

Those around you are shown by the Six of Swords. The card stands for low levels of sadness, the blues and recovery from past hurts. It also suggests travelers. A run of Swords suggests focus on the suit's mental attributes.

Your actions should reflect the Six of Cups - a run of Sixes suggests growth. The Six of Cups suggests good will and innocence. Have a clear conscience, and treat others as well as you would like them to treat you.

The results: the Star. Generosity, serenity, hope for the future. The Star is a card that brings many blessings and shows that what lies ahead is bright.

The people currently or recently around you were unhealthy for you. Moving on to other people and to the future, and being kind to those you meet, will serve you well in what you seek.

[Berserker's features shift from sadness

to greater sadness

to mild anger

to surprise

and finally, a hopeful smile.

She nods as Eater gathers the cards back up, doing her best to groan gratefully.]

Uuuuuuu...

[Eater sort of gets the idea.]

I'm glad to have helped.

"Sadly no. Anyone with the technical expertise to do it is.... Untrustworthy at best, and could do significant damage to Omoikane's systems at worst if given administrative access to the relays. That and leaving Omoikane himself in charge would be problematic as he doesn't have a good concept of privacy."

She shakes her head a bit, "Perhaps the demon clone wasn't as far from the point as I'd like to admit."

"I am sorry to hear that. It's always possible that will change as people come into the city."

"I don't know. In general I find the more technical a person is the less ethical they are."

"In general."

"In general."

She nods, "Hopefully if I find a project of my own it will be more interesting."

"I wish you the best of luck."

[Lamont may not usually do this kind of thing, but knows how accurate fortune-telling from a real psychic can be, and... well, he's in need of some guidance right now. So he shuffles the cards, asking his question with a sigh as he hands the deck back to Eater.]

Can I make up for the stupid shit I've done?
