[open to all] Trump speculation + calling
... Perdonatemi, I have an announcement.
I am not sure anyone else is aware of this, but the payphone by the door can connect to the Trumps. Or at least, when I attempted to call a Trump, it went through. I am not sure if all the Trumps are available for a call or not. I have heard some of them are dead, so they are likely not, at least. In truth, I am not really sure why they are allowing us to speak to them, now. We should all proceed with caution.
Further... if anyone has information on any of the Trumps that appeared this past Jaunt - The Magician, going by ROSE; The Hermit, going by SAGE; and The Devil - please, share it. I am not well versed in the mystical meanings behind the Tarot, only the cards and their numbers. The Magician is one, The Hermit nine, and the Devil fifteen. While I cannot say I know much about The Hermit, I am aware of many aspects of SAGE, as I was a Crypto this past Jaunt. I... I can tell you what little I know about him, if it would help.
... lastly, if anyone was Marked and feels comfortable coming forward with that information, I would be much obliged to hear it. Private or public, it does not concern me; I shall not come forward with that information unless you are comfortable providing it publicly. With so many Trumps amongst us, I cannot believe any of them would leave empty-handed, as it were.

[Sera? Ah, Elua help him, why does he seem to only bring her distress? Some traces of sorrow and regret accompany his calm words.]
We do not know that they are more set against one another than any other of the Trumps. There are too many things we do not know to say for sure. [The Trumps who appeared this last Jaunt seemed to have no concerns about using Travelers against one another however.] I discovered that I was marked after the Masquerade. [Wry humor flicks across the line.] You may recall that we found one another by you dropping from the branches to discuss my Singing at the time. Forgive me if you startled it from my mind. The Sun has chosen you? I didn't think the Sun had come to the Grid.
no subject
About the Sun... [She hesitates, uncertainty and worry coloring the mental link.] The didn't come to the Grid.
no subject
You spoke with the Sun on the phone and they chose you?
[His voice remains calm and gentle, not upset or disappointed. Maybe a little tired, but that's all.]
no subject
Yes, but... [Was it possible for a mental voice to shrink down as small as possible? Because that's the impression her voice had.] It was a, uhm. Willing agreement.
[She's quick to try and explain herself with more than a little desperation, before he can respond.] The last Jaunt, if things had gone just a little bit different, I would have been marked by the Devil! So I. I wanted to do it now, when I know what I'm doing, and can be sure I can live with the Trump I'm marked by!
no subject
Sera, it was a good choice. I do not know much about the Sun, but it is better to make such bargains on your own terms than to be passively chosen. You knew what you were choosing. If their intent is to choose each Traveler until there are none of us left free, even more important to choose for yourself.
[Private]
In truth, I agreed to work with the Moon of my own accord, though she seemed intent on choosing me regardless. I am not angry with you, Sera.
Permaprivate.
[There's a short pause before she continues.] In a way, making a deal with the Sun was rebelling against the Trumps. On the Grid, I spoke to some of them in the I/O tower. They told me to remember certain numbers, which I didn't understand until I heard about the phone booth. Only before I could use it Naoto told me about her talk with the Sun. So I decided to call that number instead. He seems to choose people that want to make their own path, and was a lot more honest and less cryptic than a lot of the other Trumps seem to be. That's why I felt I could live with that choice the best.
