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!]

[What.

The.

Fuck.

April just stares at the cards for a few very long moments.] ... How did...?

[harpbeat]

I only read what came up. You shuffled them.

[technologic]

That's... really accurate. Though I sadly don't know any men who are intelligent, articulate and ethical. [Unsure if she's joking or not.]

... Um, can I get a different reading?

[harpbeat]

Men. [A fond sigh.]

If you wish. You will of course need to shuffle again.

[technologic]

Most of the ones I know are asses. With an exception of one or two. [She sounds a bit fond as she says this though.

And she moves to gather the cards up and shuffles them again. The next question is silly to her, but considering what she thinks the answer will be, she needs the laugh. So she soon hands the deck back after shuffling.] So, my next question is would I ever have a love life?

[harpbeat]

Your past is shown by the Six of Wands. Pride, and success, and victory.

Now your present is the Fool. This is a new beginning for you, or perhaps you should treat it as such?

You will be helped by the Four of Pentacles. Acknowledging that control is impossible and that you cannot block change will be invaluable to you.

You will be hurt by the Six of Pentacles. In this case, her aspect of self-reliance is what's hurting you.

Others are shown by the Three of Wands. They are heading into unknown territory, in this case, in the area of romance...

Your actions should represent the Page of Cups. Be emotional, intuitive, and loving.

Finally, your results are shown by the Six of Swords. This card is what stands for recovery from past hurts.

[... She.

Wasn't expecting that.] ... Uh... To be honest, I was expecting something more negative.

[harpbeat]

But if you knew for certain, there would be no reason to ask.

[technologic]

I'll admit I was curious, but... Well, I'm not good at... relationship stuff anyhow. So I thought...

[She trails off and frowns thoughtfully.] ... Is there a limit on how many questions I can ask?

[harpbeat]

I have plenty of time.

[technologic]

Okay, uh... [Picking up the cards and shuffling before handing the deck back again.]

... Two of the men in my life, they... make me really uncertain. With one we've decided to start thing from scratch again due to misunderstandings but... I'm scared of messing up again and I haven't spoken to him since then. And the other seems to have some sort of interest in me... I dunno, but he kept me from getting hurt for some reason, and he didn't even know me then...

... So, my question is if I can trust them?

[harpbeat]

A three-card pull seems suitable for this.

[She flips over three cards.]

King of Cups. A man in your life who is wise, intuitive, diplomatic, and trustworthy.

Two of Wands. Believe in your personal power, take action, and be bold.

Ace of Wands. Be brave, be confident, and be ready to give it your all.

Take the risk and trust them.
