Tarot memory share [Phoenix]

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:

HIEROPHANT, STRENGTH, SUN

[ RULES | TURN-IN ]

I know I'm not very good at sorting these things out so I figured I could help best that way.
briarliar: (Buddha's Hand)

You were very helpful, and I'm glad you had a happy memory to share! I-I think I'd be a little worried for the teams that had to offer things like Death and Devil. We had a hard enough time with the Hierophant card...

And we're also very lucky to have so many smart people on our team like Stoat, Mr. Sholmes and Mr. Inui!

[ the latter two who are probably bickering about how pretty Sholmes is in a dress right now but they contributed ]

Yeah, I'm glad we didn't have any of the really nasty ones.
briarliar: (Freesia)

[personal profile] briarliar 2022-06-18 11:46 pm (UTC)(link)
From what Stoat said it doesn't have to be nasty necessarily, but it's a shame so many of them are very sad. I would hope something that's supposed to predict the future would have more happiness than those eight ball answers.
mountanoffensive: (snort)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-06-18 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't believe in that stuff anyway.
briarliar: (Foxtail Agave)

[personal profile] briarliar 2022-06-19 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not sure how to believe it until after the future becomes the past but, um, I suppose if the predictions are frequently wrong it would make sense not to believe it.
mountanoffensive: (this is kind of a lot)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-06-19 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
Do people here have any experience with them?
briarliar: (Daphne)

[personal profile] briarliar 2022-06-19 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
I only know about Stoat's friend, h-he said he would be cryptic and vague about future predictions too. But Stoat also said he hated him and he wasn't good at it...
mountanoffensive: (I'm going to just start walking now)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-06-19 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
Stoat has friends?
briarliar: (Lily of the Valley)

[personal profile] briarliar 2022-06-19 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
I...don't think they're friends anymore.

[ mutually wanting each other dead seems like a non-friendship thing to do ]

But they used to play cards together and I suppose that's why it's so, um, focused about winning.
mountanoffensive: (this is kind of a lot)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-06-19 01:39 am (UTC)(link)
Was this friend also a... what did he say he was? Ermine?
briarliar: (Forget Me Not)

[personal profile] briarliar 2022-06-19 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
Stoat didn't mention it. To be honest, I thought it might be something like a skunk or a badger...
mountanoffensive: (portal tummy?)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-06-19 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
He got mad when I caused him a weasel and corrected me.
briarliar: (Hawthorn)

[personal profile] briarliar 2022-06-19 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
I-I wouldn't take it personally. I think mad is the usual reaction it gives to almost everything...

Do you think maybe the friend was a weasel? And that's why it got so upset?
mountanoffensive: (you're okay you're all right)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-06-19 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
I guess that would make sense. Especially if they had a bad falling out.
briarliar: (Larkspur)

[personal profile] briarliar 2022-06-19 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
It sounds like Stoat had a bad falling out with everyone...
mountanoffensive: (faced down far worse things before)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-06-19 02:14 am (UTC)(link)
There could be some personality work... He reminds me of Ched.
briarliar: (Clementine)

[personal profile] briarliar 2022-06-19 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
Ched? Is he, um, part of the group Wammawink took care of?

[ all those names were kind of a blur to her but she tried to remember! ]
mountanoffensive: (this is hard but she is worth it)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-06-19 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
Yep. He's a finchtaur. Very aggressive and unpleasant most of the time. But he cares deep down.
briarliar: (Freesia)

[personal profile] briarliar 2022-06-19 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
That does sound a little like Stoat the first two anyway...

I take it that means you have a lot of patience with others. No wonder you have a warrior's temperament.
mountanoffensive: (this is kind of a lot)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-06-19 02:55 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know. Ched and me fight a lot sometimes. But I try not to let him get to me for as long as I can.
briarliar: (Pointsettia)

[personal profile] briarliar 2022-06-19 03:23 am (UTC)(link)
Hmm, that's right! I know you said you like to stomp on bullies but it sounds as if he's difficult but not malicious when you fight...
mountanoffensive: (it's hidin time)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-06-19 03:29 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, we're still family. He can just be a lot sometimes.
briarliar: (Yew Hedge)

[personal profile] briarliar 2022-06-19 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
Family can be like that. But I'm glad you found ways to resolve your differences that don't involve broken furniture or bleeding.
mountanoffensive: (this is hard but she is worth it)

[personal profile] mountanoffensive 2022-06-19 04:04 am (UTC)(link)
At least not that much broken furniture.
