WHO: The Kaisou Seers Club and you!
WHERE: Libra and Gemini
WHEN: Late September
WHAT: Ding dong, prophecy post time!
WARNINGS: Shouldn't be anything in the post itself!

[The camera flips on to a very curious Sprigatito sticking his face into the camera, only to be pulled away by an impassive Bailey, who's wearing a black hoodie that says "resting witch face".]

Hello, everyone. It's time for the prophecy post for the upcoming month.

[They pause and take a sip of tea from a nearby mug before they reach for a tarot deck and search through it. They lay out a card for the camera--the Two of Cups, reversed.]

The reoccurring card I've been getting this month is this. It's the reversed Two of Cups. [A frown.] The card centers around relationships, with the reverse generally meaning negative things such as disconnection, imbalance, disharmony, incompatibility, unhappy couples... separations, divorces, losing friendships, or otherwise ending partnerships. ... It makes me uneasy, I have to admit.

[She shifts uncomfortably, looking worried for a moment.]

Whatever the upcoming month holds, please be careful, everyone.

So I got that Daisy Belle song - y'know that one from that movie about the fuckin' space robot thing - real creepy bullshit.

But it was being sung by these daisies with faces. Daisies with faces. It was one of the creepiest things I've ever seen and, again, I can't stress this enough, I remember actual Hell.

Which movie was that?

[Girl you're just trying to get movie recommendations]

[wiseoldbartender]

[You know what, he's not even surprised. ]

Missing the point, kid, but 2001: A Space Odyssey. It was made in the 60s though, so don't expect it to be fuckin'... historically accurate or anything.

[burgersplease]

Oh, I've heard of that one but never watched it. I'll have to rent it.

[Yeah. She. Completely missed the point]

Sorry for the scary daisy faces. Do you want me to hold your hand?

[wiseoldbartender]

I mean. Yeah, good plan sure, but that's not- the song is still creepy, Anby. It's so fucking creepy.

[ He reads what his dear daughter has written. He reads it again. He reads it three times. ]

What? No. I don't need anybody to hold my fuckin hand. I'll be fine, it's not the creepiest thing I've seen but it's right up there. Just stay away from creepy smiling flowers next month, okay?

[ And then she didn't! ]

[burgersplease]

Oh.

[Listen it'd help Masa-chan after bad visions. Sure he was a 6 year old at the time, but still!]

Okay. I'll be sure to do that. Thank you for the tip.

[And then she didn't. ]

[wiseoldbartender]

[ One day Husk needs to sit Anby down and explain to her the difference between a 6 year old and a 63 year old. He didn't think he'd actually need to have that conversation, but that's honestly on him. ]

'Course kid. I'd rather you stay safe. October's a real bad time here. Worse than it usually is.

but is it better or worse than the previous visions

[wiseoldbartender]

I mean there were no dongs in this one so that's a relief. Flowers were creepy though. Ain't nothing good about singing flowers.

[crisantemo]

at least there's that

and i would say they aren't always a bad sign. but considering the other bits of information and what next month is, i am a little concerned

maybe i should keep a close eye on the garden...

[wiseoldbartender]

I mean, at least most of the flowers are dying now, right? Fall, and everything? But yeah, don't feed any of them anything weird, or touch them, just in case.

[ And because he can tell what she's worried about - that "severing ties" thing was really clear. ]

Hey. I'm not going anywhere, okay? No matter what, I'm still here.

[crisantemo]

most of them, but i do have some fall flowers too. the chrysanthemums have been blooming really well, but i'll keep a distance. i'll warn jinwoo and amaimon not to touch them too

[ Ah, of course he can tell what she's most worried about. ]

i know it's just

you know how things in october can get

[ Very rarely they have control over what happens to them. ]

[wiseoldbartender]

Don't let Amaimon eat anything, either. Because I have a feeling that'll end badly for us and he's fucking insane enough that he'll do it just to spit you if you tell him not to touch them.

Trust me. I ain't forgetting last year in a hurry. Best we can do is try to stick together and have a plan to either find each other or help each other out in the aftermath. Ain't no way we can prep for what's coming, we can only guess.

[crisantemo]

maybe i can try to distract him with something else he can eat... or set up fake flowers he can eat instead

yeah that's a good idea. we'll make sure to keep each other updated of where we are, and try not to go out alone either. and i'll make sure we have our medical supplies stocked up too

[wiseoldbartender]

Normally I'd say that wouldn't work, but honestly he's that fuckin' weird it might actually do the job.

Yeah, good call. Maybe we'll be lucky for once and the bullshit will pass us by. Just once.

[crisantemo]

if i tell him he can't eat some plastic flowers, he'll probably eat them. that should keep him distracted

yeah, i really hope we avoid this one. i don't like the sounds of it

[ She has only just started building up her self-esteem. She knows losing any of the relationships she has now, even temporarily, would destroy all that progress. ]

[wiseoldbartender]

Fuck, when you're right, you're right. He'd do it just to spite you.

Me either, it sounds like a fuckin' mess, and I'm still getting over last year. I'm passing on leaving the house. You don't need to deal with any of this shit the seers have been seeing.

[ Because he knows, oh he KNOWS, that his daughter has only just built herself up again, it's a delicate domino tower that can be knocked down only too easily. He'd rather that not happen. ]
