Tarot post mark 10.
Has it truly been so long since I did tarot readings for all of you? How tragic.
[A deck is on the table in front of her.]
Simply focus on your question while shuffling the deck, and inform me of your question when you return the deck to me. Then I can read your fortune.
[Any game, any character will be read with a real shuffling of a real Tarot deck!]

[ she even raises her hand. ]
How are me, Haruharu-chan and Apple-chan gonna do as school idols?
hella
The Knight of Pentacles. A person out of balance - realistic, but pessimistic, hardworking and steadfast but obsessive and stubborn.
The Five of Swords. People acting in their own self-interest, discord among a group.
Strength. Patience, compassion, inner strength and perseverance.
It seems that not all be well among your idol group. It is easy to fall into squabbles and disagreements, particularly when it comes to work - and being an idol is work, when things get down to it. The important part here is to have compassion for others and be patient if you would like your group to pull through and succeed.

[He slams a huge wad of cash onto the table and drapes his arm over the back of his chair.]
What does Fate have in store for my romantic life?
no subject
[After snagging Karamatsu's money, and after Karamatsu shuffles, Eater deals out three cards.]
Justice. Taking responsibility for your actions, cause and effect, making important decisions.
The Ten of Wands. Overextending, taking on burdens, struggling.
The Four of Cups. Self-absorption, apathy, being introspective.
It seems clear to me that you are doing things the hard way - that is to say, when it comes to romance, it is a thousand times harder to get someone to love you when you are focused on yourself. If you are interested in romantic success, focus more on your partner and less on your own self-image: if you are more interested in maintaining your self-image, be prepared for romantic failure.

[He shuffles the deck and hands it back to Eater.]
What do I need to do next?
no subject
The Two of Wands. Being bold, being original, and having personal power.
The Nine of Swords. Worry, guilt, and anguish.
The Knight of Pentacles. A person out of balance - his caution makes him afraid of risks, his realism is pessimism.
It is easy to be paralyzed by fear. Worry over what could go wrong makes it difficult to take a risk, and guilt can make it nearly impossible to move forward. In this case, though it's difficult, it may be time for you to put worries and fears aside and simply 'go for it', as they say. Take the boldest path.

It's not like a charm, right? But I want to know anyway.
no subject
The Seven of Pentacles. Assessment, reward, a change of direction.
Five of Pentacles. Hard times, ill health, and rejection.
Judgment. Rebirth, absolution, a day of reckoning.
Let me see... To get to this point, you've had to deal with some very difficult times. This is the point in your life where you must take a look at where you are and decide whether you want to continue on this path or choose a different one. Even if you've decided 'it's too late to change' or 'I can't be forgiven', there are always options.
Although that is all a bit dramatic, is it not?

boom here's a ryslig-flavor squid
[He's halfway through shuffling when his smile kind of... flattens.] ... Do I have to speak my question out loud? I have to, don't I. Of course, of course, how would you know otherwise...?
[Deep breath. Here goes nothing - he hands the deck back to Eater.] Wwwwill there be... salvation?
[That should be vague enough.]
my favorite squid
The Tower. A sudden downfall, an explosion, a massive change or revelation.
The King of Cups. A man who is wise, caring, diplomatic.
The Page of Swords. A young person, or else an energy suggesting to follow in that child's footsteps - be mindful, be truthful, be just, have fortitude.
Salvation is a difficult concept, is it not? And the Tower is a difficult card - it suggests that from where you are, things will get much, much worse. But both the King of Cups and the page of Swords are wise, intelligent cards who put their minds to use, who prize ethics and clarity of thought.
Salvation is not here, not yet. And salvation is not achieved merely by following blindly, but by goodness and kindness to others, even in the face of hardship. That is how people are saved.

[Noire shuffles the deck, hands it back, then settles into the seat. She shifts slightly to make herself comfortable.]
...please don't laugh when I ask you this. How hard will it be for me to make actual friends?
no subject
The Seven of Swords. Running away, going 'lone wolf'.
The Empress. Mothering, abundance.
The Ten of Wands. Struggling, carrying burdens.
It is easily possible to make friends, if you welcome them in. If you push people away, you will have much harder of a time. Are you sure that the fault is not in you?
[...she didn't say anything about being blunt.]

It's good to get these done again from time to time, right? The last one... it was a lot of fun. [ With the deck shuffled, she places it down and slides it back over. ] So I'll do it again, even if someone says it might not be necessary, you know? For me.
no subject
The Sun. Enlightenment, greatness, vitality, self-assurance.
The Eight of Cups. Seeking a deeper meaning, moving on.
The King of Wands. Someone inspiring, creative and bold, a natural leader.
The last I saw you, the cards predicted a less than positive future. [Tower and all.] This time the cards suggest that phase is over - you are moving forward into the next phase, into a future where all your energy and boldness can be put into play. Be confident, be unafraid, and remember that you inspire others with your own greatness.

A finger gently taps on the table once or twice before she finally speaks.]
Did I make the right choice?
no subject
The Seven of Swords. Running away, going lone wolf. Sometimes hidden dishonor.
The Six of Pentacles. A card in the middle, there being two sides to any issue.
The Seven of Cups. Wishful thinking, having too many options.
...Well, it's difficult to say, is it not? There were good and bad parts to any road you could have chosen, and it's hard to say what was 'right'. It all depends on what you value most. The most important part is that you made a choice, isn't it?
...I am dreadfully sorry, this is even vaguer than normal. I fare worse with yes or no questions.

and ill just throw a bunch of girls at you i guess
[ she shuffles the deck carefully, before handing it back over to Eater. ]
How are the Hero Club gonna do?
no subject
The Nine of Wands. Defensiveness, perseverance, stamina.
The Knight of Swords. Someone out of balance - knowledgeable but opinionated, logical, but unfeeling.
The Six of Cups. Good will, innocence, childhood.
There will be setbacks. There will always be setbacks, and disagreements among the members. That is simply the nature of any group of people. However, as long as you all remember what you are trying to do - be heroes, that is - I foresee that you can overcome those setbacks and work together.
just one more i promise
[ shuffle, shuffle. she doesn't really know what to ask about and asking about first astronomical velocity sounds a bit like a jinx waiting to happen. but she feels like she knows what Suzu would ask so that's what she'll go with. ]
How about um... something about romance, then...?
[ there, that's the sort of thing you ask fortune tellers, isn't it? ]
eee
The Three of Swords. Heartbreak, loneliness, betrayal.
The Queen of Wands. A woman who is self-assured, energetic, and cheerful.
The Fool. A beginning, being spontaneous, having faith and taking 'foolish' chances.
While pain of one kind or another may be in your future, the important thing to remember after being hurt is not to let yourself suffer forever. Eventually, you must put yourself out there again if you want to heal.
[...sorry.]

Um, if you don't mind, I'd like to know how life with Koyomi-onii-chan will turn out...
[Love life, she means. But she won't say it, not especially to a stranger.]
no subject
The Seven of Wands. Aggression, defiance, conviction.
The Six of Wands. Triumph, acclaim, and pride.
The Magician. Action, concentration, awareness.
Let's see, with your brother... It seems there's something you'll have to fight against, most likely metaphorically - but with this crowd, who knows, it could be literal? I could not possibly tell you what it is, but I can tell you that you should remember exactly what it is you're fighting for and why. If you do that, you are will find success.

...I'd like to know what's my future in Koriko. That goes for everything, mind you.
no subject
The King of Wands. A man who is creative and bold, with a forceful presence.
The Knight of Swords. Someone out of balance - knowledgeable but opinionated, direct but blunt, logical but unfeeling.
The Ace of Wands. Creative force, confidence, enthusiasm, courage.
Both the King and the Ace of Wands suggest what you need is to be bold, taking risks even in this strange place. The Knight suggests that you might want to work on your directness - are you too cutting with your words, cold with people you should be warm with?
no subject
What's the outlook regarding my... [A long pause. It's like he's hesitating to say it.] Uh. Romantic life?
[He just had his heart broken, so while he doesn't believe in this tarot nonsense, he just wants to hear something good right now...hopefully.]
no subject
The Magician. Action, concentration, awareness, power.
The Queen of Pentacles. A woman who is nurturing, down-to-earth, worthy of trust.
The Six of Wands. Triumph, acclaim, pride.
The outlook for you is positive, if you remember to act. People sometimes forget that love will not drop into their lap - they must pursue it, and remember why they are pursuing it.
[You're not going to get anybody by just hanging around being your usual dick self, Keats.]
did you like that squid because here's his very straight cult co-parent
That and he's curious. This question is an important one. He knows his future -- or at least he knows the future that Wendy told him and Ford confirmed.]
Am I makin' the right choice, not goin' back?
[Because he doesn't plan to, even if the opportunity presents itself. Will that wreck the timeline? Will staying in Ryslig be worse?]
hello new/old friend
Judgment. Rebirth, a day of reckoning, absolution.
The Emperor. Structure, authority, regulation.
The Knight of Wands. Someone out of balance - daring but foolhardy, passionate but hot-tempered.
It is always a struggle, is it not? To return home, or to keep what you've found in this new place. Going home makes you a different person than the person who stays here.
Do you want the comfort and structure of knowing what your home is and what it can give to you? Or do you want to stay in an unknown land and risk that it will give you something you don't want?
There is no right choice - it depends on what you value most. I fear I'm not much help.

Judgment. Rebirth, absolution, a day of reckoning.
The Fool. Beginning, spontaneity, having faith in the future - taking 'foolish' chances.
Three of Pentacles. Teamwork, planning, being competent.
Everyone experiences setbacks, my dear. It doesn't mean you aren't getting better. Every day is the first day of the rest of your life, as they say - think of it as a chance to improve from here on out, rather than compare it to where you were before.
As far as your new friends - of course. They're your friends, and they want to help.

no subject
The Page of Swords. A young person or an energy - be thoughtful, be truthful, be just, have fortitude.
The Empress. Mothering, abundance, the senses. Physical activity, sometimes.
The Six of Swords. The blues, recovery, travel.
Hm. I would guess from the last card that you're in a spot right now you dislike - not knowing what to do with yourself, perhaps, or simply a listlessness. This is a temporary period, and you can push through it into better days. One way to do so is thankfulness and appreciation for what you do have.

The Five of Pentacles. Hard time, ill health, and rejection.
The Queen of Wands. A woman who is confident, cheerful, and full of vitality.
The Fool. Beginning, being spontaneous, having faith, making 'foolish' choices.
The Five of Pentacles suggests that there will continue to be stress in your future. In the face of difficulties, it is important to remain self-confident and believe that things will improve, even if they seem that they might not.

...is the reaction Valmont would have had a few days ago, but, well. Hanging out with time travelers and then almost getting killed by different time travelers does sort of tend to make a believer out of you. And while he now knows roughly what the future has in store for him, the how is a little fuzzier. It couldn't hurt to get some advice, could it? ]
You there.
[ Just gonna stride up, grab those cards and start shuffling. What is politeness. Once done, he slaps the deck down and stares at Eater expectantly. ]
Tell me how to succeed.
no subject
Death. A drastic change, transition from one phase to another, unstoppable forces.
The Hierophant. Identification with a group, education, taking an orthodox approach.
The Sun. Enlightenment, achieving greatness, having self-assurance.
My, my, so many important cards... In this case I would suggest two things - that working with a group is often the key to success, and that having confidence in yourself is the key to not failing. I think you will know success when you see it - there is at least one major change in your future, whether good or bad.

How about just something about the future in general?
[Nope, not going to admit to her real concerns.]
no subject
The Wheel of Fortune. Destiny, a turning point - movement and change.
The High Priestess. Nonaction, intuition, seeing potential in a situation.
Four of Pentacles. Possessiveness, control, blocked change.
Change is ahead of you, drastic change. There are two ways to react to change - you can to try and stop what's happening to stay in the past, which will ultimately lead to failure and frustration. Or, you can take a step back and see what you can make of your new situation.
have someone headed for a game maybe?
[Prophecy by what power? Well...all right. It can't hurt, can it? It's not like shuffling a deck of cards and asking a question is going to immediately break down her mental barriers.]
Surprising that you aren't charging anything for it... I'd like to see the cards' answer to a question.
[Katherine sits down and begins shuffling the deck. If there is payment to be had she'll pay it anyway. She has reason to be generous with her money, at this point; her adventure is over and her gear and supplies for casual adventuring after the fact are more than sufficient.
When she hands the deck back over...]
It's a little personal, but I've...changed, since I was an apprentice. Is it really for the better?
hella and sorry for the late
Page of Pentacles. A person or an energy - be practical, be trusting and trustworthy, have an effect on the world around you.
Six of Wands. Triumph, acclaim, pride.
Knight of Wands. A person out of balance - charming but superficial, adventurous but restless, prideful to a fault.
Since you were an apprentice, many things have happened - you've done many things, no? As you change the world around you, you change yourself. You should take pride in the person you've become, rather than wistfully reminisce on the person you used to be - even the Knight can be a positive card if his energy is missing from your situation.
