Tarot memory share [Bugbear]

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:

MAGICIAN, HANGED MAN, TOWER

[ RULES | TURN-IN ]

'Course! Don't rely on cards, just rely on communication!

Okay. Spaceships are kind of like towers, right? What about one of those?

They're more like vehicles, not towers. They come apart as they blast off! Besides, I only have memories of being inside one, most people might not recognize it.

Yeah but before they blast off, they're sticking straight upright like a tower shape. If half the people here don't know what an astronaut is then what else would a long tall structure like that look like? And blasting off is, er, not exactly the same as being struck by lightning but they're both blasts?

Oh that's a good point. . .! We could try that if the others don't have something better. It's kinda crazy how many people don't know about spacecrafts here.

It's weird, but if the majority don't know about them does that make us the weird ones? Is technology the anomoly?

No way, they just gotta expand their horizons and get educated! At least we're not closed minded.

...Do people not believe in astronauts when you tell them?

A couple yeah! I guess space travel is a total fantasy for some people. Pretty sad!

Right?? We've got dragons and Pokemon, but space is what they get confused about. S'wild!

Do you think they're flat earthers? How many people have hit the scientific breakthrough that the world is round?

Don't even joke about that, man! I wouldn't be able to deal!

It’s too late I’m falling down this rabbit hole. If there are pokemon here people from discworld could show up too. Kaito flat earthers could show up and be right.

There's no way! There are billions of planets in the solar system, but for one to be flat?! There's no way for that to be possible and support life!

There's no way but what if they just say it's magic. So many stories handwave away scientific impossibilities with a wizard did it. If writer's don't care about science then the story just doesn't have that science. We can't even go to their world's to prove it so they can just say that's how it works on their magical flat world and what could we do?

W-well; so what! As long as they don't exist here yet, they don't exist at all as far as I'm concerned. Flat earth. . .even in those kinds of stories, you're gonna tell me there aren't crazy people that try to jump off it? They totally miss little details like that!
beeknighted: (Those were awkward.)

If those flat earths are out there you know there'd be a ton of theme parks and tourist traps capitalising on the edge of the world. Someone somwhere would set up a high adrenaline not-up-to-code bungee jump.
