[open to all] Trump speculation + calling

[howexciting]

... 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.

I'll look out for that, then.

[Levi'd known regular cards well enough to rack up some side coin back in the Underground (and from anyone stupid enough the be hustled in the taverns topside), but this Tarot shit isn't something he's familiar with on more than a surface level even after all this time.]

...Thanks. This sort of shit doesn't exist where I'm from, but it sounds like you've got enough experience with it to fill the rest of us in.

No problem - if it can help anyone else, I'm glad to share. Me 'n a few of my friends are pretty familiar with this crap - I started studyin' how it works last year. Still not an expert on the little details, but I know about the bits that're relevant to what's going on.

[abweichend]

That's what I'm looking for- anything relevant.

[Because let's be real- Levi's no scholar. He does the stabbing and the slicing, among other physical-based tasks.

Still, it can't hurt to have at least some idea what the fuck they're dealing with.]

Maybe we can make something out of the Trumps' taking people with such useful hobbies...

[creativefool]

[There's a faint psychic snort of a laugh. 'Hobbies' isn't how he'd describe it, but ... eh, close enough, he had studied it out of interest as much as out of necessity.

Just to prove to himself that he could.]

Guess they think that it'll help to have people on their team that know how they work.

[abweichend]

[Hobby, life or death situation... Totally the same thing!!]

They're arrogant.

[LEVI IS NOT A FAN. Especially when he isn't in the position to knock some teeth out.]

[creativefool]

Can't argue with that, man. Thinkin' they can screw us around...

[abweichend]

We haven't managed to show them otherwise... This could be a start.

[Levi approves of this wholeheartedly, in other words. The sooner they get more informed (and the more people around who know what their deal could be), the sooner they can start thinking about offense instead of whatever the hell they're doing now.

Levi won't be doing anything reckless until he has some pretty solid information.]

[creativefool]

Tch. Hope so. Anythin' I can do t' help get to the bottom of what the hell's goin' on...

[abweichend]

[TCH BUDDIES UNITE this is clearly the start of something beautiful.]

Right. At least at the bottom we know which way's up. ...I'll see you there, then.

[creativefool]

Alright, man. See ya there.

[Where he hopes he won't screw this up.]
