I chose the Page of Swords for his Representative Card. The Pages are cards that are part of the Court set, and Pages are the most youthful, energetic, and receptive to new lessons. Swords is the suit that corresponds to Air, though Swords also indicate intellectual power, the power of communication, and the cutting power of mentality. They are also masters of courage, change, and ambition, though their greatest weakness tends to be their own doubt. The Page of Swords, being a youth in control of the powers of Swords, then represents turbulent energy (yeah) that the youth is not entirely in control of, though he strives mastery of it. It is a bit of a situation where the Page knows that he has the tools to be as amazing as he knows he can be, but he doesn't always know how to apply them. The card suggests a vindictiveness against other people, but I think Ari tends to bend such anger towards himself instead of towards others.
I put Page of Swords as the Representative card cause this seems to be the place where Ari has been his whole life so far - in a situation where he feels he can't 'grow up' and be independent, though now he is determined to be on his own and master the world. I think there is potential for him to graduate up to a Knight of Swords once he becomes a master of communication (the best that he can) and feels secure in his own independence and abilities.
VAL'S FACE = （╯°□°）╯ A LUMPY BALL OF FIGHT OR FLIGHT RESPONSE. LONI WHY DO YOU SUGGEST SUCH THINGS YOU CAN'T TRUST THESE PEOPLE THEY MAKE THEIR MONEY THROUGH SWINDLING OTHERS AND VOODOO AND IS SHE TELLING ME I'M GONNA DIE AAAAAH.
HActually, the Page of Pentacles is where Val is right now. Like the Page of Swords, this is a young person who is bursting with ideas and energy about how he wants to be independent and command his future, though he doesn't quite have the means to do so yet. The Page of Pentacles is represented by a Page staring hypnotically at a gold coin in his hands, but this doesn't so much promise that he'll grow up into a Scrooge McDuck as it represents how absorbed he is by his dreams of building his future (education, his own business, his own family, etc). Val will evolve *Pokemon music* into a Knight of Pentacles at some point during the storyline, and possibly further into the King of Pentacles when he is much older.
