WHO: August
WHERE: The app
WHEN: Now?
WHAT: This post is brought to you by our sponsors: The Prophecy Club, Too Many Energy Drinks, and Demons
WARNINGS: August's mouth as per the usual

[Good evening Libra it is your friendly neighborhood demonic witchy tailor coming at you live with about...three empty cans of energy drink, what looks to be a very fancy vest on his dress form behind him, and the look of a man who is beat but can't sleep because he drank three or more energy drinks to finish a commission.]

Yeah, it's late, deal with it, I'm running on like four energy drinks and pizza. So! [He claps his hands together.] Couple of things. First: if you were wondering "wow did Bruno not get a vision this month? Are August's cards behaving?" the answer is no, we're still getting weird shit. He saw shorts, literally just shorts, and I am getting big "something has secrets and it may be related to your mom" vibes for the whole damn city. So, like. Check in with any mom figures? Buy shorts? Fuck, man, I dunno, is anyone else starting to think this shit is related to the Spirit Realm shit? Somehow? Like, someone has a rat that does electricity, right? Or saw one a couple months ago? Was I hallucinating seeing that in there?

[Helen the Sewaddle waddles across the screen. August just picks her up and sets her on the floor.]

Second: reminding any and all isekais that I am making three outfits per person free of charge to help get you settled in. Second and a half: reminding any and all nerds that I don't make cosplays, but I will make some of the basic parts.

Third: anyone got a copy of the Ars Goetia I can borrow? Fourth...

[A long pause as August just sits there, thinking. He's tired, okay?]

There was a fourth but fuck it, I can't remember. Ask me in the morning or something.

Maybe he saw shorts because spring is coming up? Warmer weather means you want to wear lighter clothes!

[It's perfectly logical to him, anyways.]

[drewthetower]

...I mean. Maybe?

[featherpen]

It makes sense, doesn't it? The change of the seasons bring a change in the world, and with how strange everything has been those changes might be more than one man alone can see.

[He smiles, cheerful as ever.]

Perhaps it's for the best that you can't see things with crystal clarity. Aren't vague mysteries better than the knowledge that something terrible can happen that you can't stop?

[Luckily (or unluckily) Mirabel's sleeping schedule is shot to hell. She kind of wondered if Bruno bothered having a vision this month - the last one seemed to shake him up pretty bad.

But shorts? Secrets relating to her mom? She tries to puzzle it out...

Her mom is going to the possible suspicious hot springs resort to check if it's safe. Does that means she's going to get hurt?]

I have to stop mamá from going to the Hot Springs Resort!!

[This makes sense in her head okay.]

[drewthetower]

Wait, what? What resort?

[nonmagical]

The Hot Springs resort! We got a gift certificate in the mail and the whole family was invited but mamá was suspicious so she was going to check it out to see if it's safe but what if it has secrets and those secrets are DANGEROUS and dios mio I just put my mother in danger-

[She's fine. Really. Not panicking.]

Hmm...maybe we're going to the beach? I've heard beach campfire talks can get pretty personal!

[Or he's seen it. in anime]

[drewthetower]

Really? I only ever hear about them getting stupid because someone got too drunk. Maybe that's just the economics guys, though.

[whiteshroud]

Yeah, I mean those are economic guys. What secrets do they have? That they like money?

On point one about the electric rat, those were in fact a thing in that gate back in February, yes.

[Point two isn't relevant to him. He continues.]

Point three: I think I have one around here from when my mother was having her occult phase, I don't think she'll care if I swipe it.

Point four: Are you sure, because I really will message you in the morning.

[drewthetower]

Cool, thank you for confirming I am not crazy yet and also for the Ars Goetia. And sure, I just dealt with way too many buttons today.

[kokaiwanai]

Happy to help.

[And infinitely more useful than someone we could mention.]

Please get some rest as soon as you can manage it, though.

So....secrets and moms, shorts, and rain? 'Cause I got more rain. And no umbrella. No umbrella the first time, either, for the record.

[drewthetower]

And rain. If it weren't for my stuff, I would just guess "oh it's spring".

[incendiarize]

Mother's Day is in spring, right? Maybe it is just gonna be spring, but like a springier spring?

[Ghaleon's face is less than pleasant, but don't worry about it, it's just the hour and the phone notification being unexpectedly loud.]

No, clearly the prophecies have nothing whatsoever to do with the spaces beyond the holes in the fabric of reality. Surely it all must be a coincidence.

[He pauses to sip some tea, which somehow manages to add to the sarcastic tone. The next sentence shifts down to just a tone of deep exhaustion.]

As for the electric rodent, if it's from last month's Realm, then it's a type of creature called a Pokemon. Don't ask for specifics though. They're not native to my original world, so my knowledge is limited.

[Another pause for tea.]

As for your second point, I'd be glad to discuss the specifics after we both have had our beauty sleep. The Mother knows I'm bound to need it...

Third, yes, in a manner of speaking. We keep several copies where I work, so it would be very easy to acquire.

[drewthetower]

Dude, we are literally trying our best here, I've never had readings this weird and also accurate before a few months ago.

[Dick.]

But if the visions are related to the Spirit Realm bullshit, then yeah, I guess that electric rat was a Poke-whatever. And just get a hold of me in the morning, both about the book and your clothes, since if I have to look at another button today I will kill a man.

[sassery]

Shorts and moms? What, should we expect a runway or something? "Kaisou's New Fashion Model?"

[sassery]

[............about five minutes later tho, the name just kept pissing him off for some unknown reason.]

And what's Ars Goetia?

[video] un: restinglichface

[restinglichface]

I know you said a lot of shit that's probs important but all I heard was free outfits.

[drewthetower]

Only for the isekais which...

[Checks the local group chat]

Yeah, okay I didn't miss someone else getting added. Yeah, I make clothes.

text in the morning, un: coldbrew

[ideate]

Would it be too much to ask for a summary?

[drewthetower]

1. three of us had visions or weird card readings: shorts, secret moms or mom secrets, and rain

2. if you're not a local/from another world I'll make you three free outfits. also something about cosplay.

3. I need a copy of the Ars Goetia but that's covered

4. idr

[wedonttalkabout]

Gracias mi amigo.

[Look at him, acknowledging a friend as a friend instead of second-guessing himself about it!]

One day our visions might make sense but I'm not holding my breath on that one. Me and Mirabel dealt with a squirrel that shot electricity so I might have got my rodents mixed up.

[drewthetower]

It was small, furry, and electric. It counts.

[A sigh.]

Oh, yeah, there's a third one, we just weren't sure what was up with him but there's this kid, Arthur? He keeps getting visions of rain.
