WHO: Phainon and everyone
WHERE: Libra, mostly
WHEN: End of the month!
WHAT: Prophecy post!
WARNINGS: will update if necessary

[The feed opens to a certain good boy- Phainon is sitting on a couch with Snowy, his white Samoyed, partway in his lap. The dog seems to be worried for the man, who himself has a fluffy white tail that is hanging and only wagging every so often, with white ears that drop onto his hair. It frames his entire mood without saying anything at all.

When he speaks, his voice is a little more serious than he usually carries it.]


I'm told that usually the prophecy posts are done around this time, so I've got a few from different people here. [A beat, and he frowns, his tail stilling.] I'll be honest, from what I've seen so far? It doesn't look great.

[Snowy whines, and Phainon pets his head, the man exhaling as he starts.]

Usually my prophecy is from my shadow- and this time, it turned into a broken sword. I've seen those before, in my past life; felt them, too. [He figures he doesn't need to elaborate, since the words themselves should be a good idea of the image he saw.] I have Bailey's, they told me theirs was the Hanged Man- but it kept switching between being upright and reversed. They said that... "Upright, it means uncertainty, sacrifice, waiting, lack of direction, perspective, and contemplation. Reversed, it means stalling, disinterest, apathy, stagnation, and avoiding sacrifice." [A beat, and Phainon scratches the back of his head.] Nito said his sounded like an actual roar, too.

[A huff, and his tail briefly sways, Snowy chuffing in his laugh.] Whatever is coming, I think it'd be better to be careful, you know? None of this sounds good.

[And he'd rather people be safe than sorry.]

[The fact that things as out of the ordinary as cards not staying consistent is alarming. Honestly there was much about this that Takame disliked. Usually he texted what he saw but this time you can see the intensity in his eyes.]

I've heard many a dragon's roar in my time. 'Tis rare that what follows is something pleasant. It may stem from sorrow or rage or pain... but I cannot say for certain.

My apologies for such a dire view on matters we cannot confirm. But I ask that we be careful in the coming weeks.

[...Hm. Where's that weird cat... usually he's very prompt even when he wasn't feeling well...

Takame will just DM them right quick.]


Have you seen aught amiss in your visions? If you wish, I can relay the information.

[If there's no response for a while, he'll follow up.]

Are you alright?

I've spent the last few days stuck watching fuckin' hospital dramas. Not because I wanted to, but because every fuckin' time I tried to watch anything, it turned to that. Didn't matter what channel I switched to - I couldn't even watch fuckin' youtube without it turning into a "top ten saddest Grey's Anatomy moments" video.

So. Got something to do with hospitals would be my guess. I'd be real glad if it can fuckin' stop now because if I have to watch another episode of St Elsewhere, I'm gonna kick something.

[Strange. There's no response from Harumasa. However, he did say he's under the weather this month, so perhaps he's just resting or fell asleep?]

I'm still not sure the cards aren't haunted this month.

[They fiddle with one of their tarot decks as they shuffle and reshuffle. It's clearly so they can have something to do with their hands out of nervousness.]

At first, I thought it was one of my Pokemon playing around with the cards, but...

[Lycaon never expected that he would be getting these sorts of premonintions, let alone in scent form. It's far too layered to be a normal scent, and there's a story behind it despite him never opening the book, to put it metaphorically.

Lycaon is looking at a post-it note with his very neat cursive handwriting, going over what he's classified this prophecy to be.]


It is not only sounds, but scents that have been foretelling.

Top Notes: Peppermint, Frost.
Heart Notes: Plastic. Ammonia.
Base Notes: Peroxide. Antiseptic. Metal.

If I had to associate it with anything, it would be a hospital. The disinfectants there are very close to what I'm picking up.

However, there's something a bit more sinister when the metal is added in. It's not a typical scent.

I don't want to jump to conclusions, but a metallic smell may not always be iron.

[He will kick your entire ass!! ]

It's complete bullshit. You know, maybe it could have saved itself, but the ending is one of those things that retroactively wrecks the entire damn thing. It's so fuckin' stupid.

[Takame's been paying the Fortress more visits to see Maxima while he's been sad. He knew Harumasa was not in good health right now.

But he still had a bad feeling about this.

He did not know the young man well enough to pry, though...]


Hmm...

[Elsewhere, Viktor looked at his phone and then quietly turned it off without comment.]

[He was probably just feeling run down from the exertion and change in weather, or so he told himself. Besides, it was the height of arrogance to assume any part of a prophecy was going to involve him.]

Not necessarily. Death in terms of tarot isn't really... actual death. It actually has to do with either change or resisting or fearing it.

The Tower tends to be bad news though.

This month, I've written down a quote from the memoir of Pat Conroy, The Death of Santini:

"I’ve never attended a family reunion where I was not warned of a Venus flytrap holding court among the older women, or a pitcher plant glistening with drops of sweet poison trying to sell his version of the family maelstrom to his young male cousins."

Whether you're being warned to avoid family reunions or carnivorous plants is up to your interpretation.

Is that so, Sir Agapov? I have been detecting scents that are reminiscent of hospitals, myself. So it was not my imagination.

That must be...terribly depressing to have on marathon. My condolences.

Yeah. It doesn't help when media makes a big deal about the card just because of the name and imagery. But more often than not, it's a lot like what it represents: not as scary as it seems.

... I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the other tarot reader did.
doublethumbsup: (no im serious right now!!)

Yeah. This was one of those fuckin' "it was all a dream" kinda things. Except even stupider - because it was all invented by a kid and the hospital was in his snow globe? Absolute bullshit.

Yeah! It was goddamn pastry week in the baking show and I was getting ready to see British people lose their shit over not being able to make pie. Instead, I had to watch Zach Braff do an inner monologue about ... shit, I don't know, hope or whatever.

[personal profile] wiseoldbartender 2026-01-25 11:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Jesus Christ Sir Agapov? I ain't that fancy, fuck me.

Anyway, yeah if you've got those kindsa smells being picked up on it's looking real likely that there's a hospital in play. Which, given it's Kaisou, is probably some sort of horror murder hospital or something.

I just wanna watch literally anything else. For like. Fifteen minutes. I don't think it's asking much.

A wise precaution, in this place. Do let us know if you find anything alarming.
