Arcana-talk time [A day or two into the new liminal]

[professorwolf]

We're still assuming that the liminal space before a Jaunt represents the Arcana competing in it, yes? I know someone's mentioned this earlier, but it definitely needs to be highlighted-- I think it's pretty obvious this time that the contest will be between Chariot and Tower. The giant wooden horse running through a thunderstorm really couldn't be more blatant. For once.

[He's not great at understanding symbolism, but damn if this wasn't an easy one.]

So if that's right, it'll be a contest of motion and persistence, versus dramatic change and catastrophe. I think it's easy enough to decide who we want to support, in this case. We'll just have to find ways to make sure we see what sort of conditions make for a win for each ideal.

Any ideas for what to look for and how to keep things from devolving into a catastrophe? Those seem to happen a lot when we're around, unfortunately.

I like to try to be inclusive. I'm used to hanging around people with weird powers which can end up with them having... weird side effects.

[papacerberus]

Then you'll fit in well here. There are many powers and abilities and side effects to be dealt with.

[helborn]

Sounds pretty good to me! It keeps things interesting, at least.

[papacerberus]

Quiet moments are rare, even when not taking this network into account.

[Lupa may or may not be thinking of a specific ...pattern when he mentions the psychic network.]

If you enjoy excitement and activity, you'll probably enjoy Traveling for the most part.

[helborn]

Probably! It sounds pretty much up my alley! I had a lot of that when I was traveling at home, too.

[papacerberus]

It’s good to see someone that is happy here.

[Lupa is happy, mostly, especially now that he’s accepted himself.]

[helborn]

I'm used to dealing with being on the road and seeing dangerous stuff. The lack of sensible gravity is new, but I can get used to that. I've dealt with a lot of weird over the past year and a half, a little more isn't so bad.

[papacerberus]

You’re well prepared. Is there anything else I could answer for you?

[Lupa’s happy to help, even if he doesn’t think he does as thorough of a job as those who’ve been here longer.]

[helborn]

I think I'm good. Oh - I'm Casper, by the way!
