Tarot post mark 2.

[harpbeat]

I do believe I'm in the mood for Tarot readings. Would anyone like one?

[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 you your fortune.

[Any game, any character will be read with a real shuffling of a real Tarot deck!]

Oh! My stepmother did tarot readings on occasion. May I request--?

[Cassandra folds her hands in her lap and nods at the deck.]

Welcome, welcome!

[harpbeat]

Of course, miss. [She hands the cards over.]

[castlecaptured]

[She begins shuffling the deck, slowly, as she tries to think of how to put her problem.

Simple might be best.]

What ought I to do with all the information I've learned--help, or ruin him?

[harpbeat]

[When Cassandra gives the deck back, Eater deals out seven cards.]

The Eight of Cups represents your past. Moving on, and weariness.

The Ten of Wands represents your present. Taking too much on yourself.

You are helped by the High Priestess - the information that is hidden. This is particularly relevant to your question.

You are harmed by the Queen of Swords. Hmm... Let me come back to this.

The Knight of Wands represents others. Knights need to balance themselves - in this case, between being brave and being foolhardy, between confidence and arrogance.

Your actions - I see! - should reflect the Queen of Wands. Where the Queen of Swords reflects the mental aspects of the Swords suit, the Wands suit is better for you to follow. In this case, it is the brave but perhaps risky choice that you need here.

Finally, the results are shown by the Ten of Cups. Peace and joy.

[She smiles sadly at the peace and joy part--it's a nice thought, but unlikely. The rest, though, seems uncannily accurate (as often happens with tarot, given the multifaceted nature of the cards). As for her options, well, she already knew which one she should choose.]

What if I do help him? Oh. If you'll take more than one question, that is.

[harpbeat]

I will take more than one question, though seconds only receive a three-card spread.

[castlecaptured]

[She shuffles again, and then gives back the cards.]

I know how I'd help him--I think--but what would be the outcome?

[harpbeat]

Two of Cups, forging a connection.

Queen of Cups. A woman who is sympathetic and sensitive. The Queens use their power for good, generally speaking.

And Seven of Pentacles, assessment, a direction change. I believe that last to be most important to you.

you are a peach! thank you! :)

[castlecaptured]

[Cassandra stares at the cards, eyebrows raised, the ghost of a smile at her lips. Uncanny indeed.]

Funny, how the cards tell me what I think I already knew. Thank you very much for your time.

You're welcome~

Thank you for indulging me in my hobby.
