Our fingerprints are everywhere.

So, some of ya know that my computer is on the way out the door.   That's what's been going on since Thursday - trouble connecting to wireless networks, and then trouble getting my computer beyond Vista's WELCOME screen, which made me cry like a boo-boo.   But K's brother got to do voodoo magic on my computer this evening, and I'm more or less back in action.  As in the last few weeks, I'm out a lot still and probably won't be on very often.  Montana is lovely, as always.

Also I have my Taiki outfit to start sewing.  D: 

ANYWAYS.  Here is something to get me a little back in action, Interwebs-and-writing-wise.

Pick up to three of your RP chars (ones whom I am familiar with, please), and I will pick out for you a Representative Tarot Card and/or a Growth Tarot Card for that character, plus an explanation to what the card is and why I picked it for that char.  The Representative card is basically the card that I think epitomizes the char's personality/spirit/path in life.  If I give you a Growth Card, that represents the character's current lot in life and conflict that they have to overcome.  This is all by my perspective, so feel free to debate or suggest a new card.  I'm including all of the Major Arcana, plus the 16 Royal cards. 

ALSO if you like, request one of my characters as well (in addition to your three), and I will respond with his/her cards, just for fun.  I'd do this in the body of this post but I am tired and not sure if there is much interest in that sort of thing.  I can say though that like, for every game I've been in since ANCD, I've done Tarot find-and-replace in my own head, with the never-accomplished intention of actually drawing a deck based on that games' characters.   

(Kol, Angie, when were you planning on doing the music meme?  I don't want to miss that ;_; )

I want Tertia's card. SO SHE CAN EAT ED'S FACE.

As of her time in HG!, Tertia was definitely Queen of Pentacles, though stuck a bit in the reversed meaning of the card. Positively, she did know the meaning of hard work and perseverence, and was confident, practical, and even kind in her own uptight way. What hung her up was a fear of losing everything that she earned through hard work, especially through the magic of sexism. She also tended to care too much about work and her future and not enough about enjoying the present, and she also really isolated herself from others and had trouble reaching out for help. In interpreting her for Hera, I wanted to address the bad press that Hera gets as being a giant defensive mechanism on her part - the mythical Hera had no one to trust, and in the same way, Tertia was afraid to share her dreams and ambitions with others for fear that they'd betray it in the end.

The plan was that she'd eventually graduate up into anEmpress, cause lol Hera. She would have been able to be very successful in her business ambitions without feeling the need to steamroll everyone, or to feel fear that other people just wanted to take advantage of her. I like to think that she would have evened out her anger issues after the course of the story, yet not have relinquished any of her enjoyment of being the queen of the neighborhood.

I would really like to bring back Tertia at some point <3 I'll be sure to let you know if I see any games that would be appropriate for the both of us!
