[Kuhn's been seeing more and more people wandering around on the plane with their noses buried in slips of paper and things that look like playing cards from a distance. Frankly... he's starting to feel a little left out.]

Sheesh, did everyone get a card but me? I kind of feel like I got the short end of the stick here...

((OoC: Bored Kuhn is Bored. And curious! Feel free to take advantage of someone outside the plot. ♥))

[ He pulls his hand back a bit when Kuhn gets closer. ]

... I guess. [ Not that the Lovers is any better, in his own personal opinion. ]

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

[He shrugs.] It's not like I know much about tarot anyway. Maybe the Lovers is just as weird of a card, though you wouldn't think it would be...

[polarization]

Maybe you should look it up.

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

If it gets to the point that I need to know something about it, then yeah, I will.

[polarization]

[ Shrugs. ] You were the one that said you were curious.

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

I'm more curious as to why they're being given out. Think there's a person with each card in the whole deck?

[polarization]

How do you mean?

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

Well, there's... what, 70? 80? cards in the deck. Do you think 80 people have cards, and that they're all different?

[polarization]

Don't know. The not-dog was giving them out, but apparently there were some left over... [ He shrugs. ]

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

"Not-dog"?

[polarization]

Yeah.

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

[He nods slowly] ... Leeet's try this again. "Not-dog"?

[polarization]

It talks.

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

Just when you think you've heard everything...

[polarization]

It was really weird. [ He's about to nod, but halts the motion as something flickers across his mental vision.

The white knight, happy to help, needs no recognition. Nice guy. Personable. Trustworthy. Busybody. It shifts, from emotional to visual - - a group of colorful and oddly-dressed people bunched together, impossible to see individually, but all equally important. So important. ]

[That's... kind of longer than a normal silence. He's pretty sure the guy went stiff, too. He slowly tilts his head, then waves a hand once across Sefton's line of vision.]

Um... hey?

[polarization]

[ Sefton blinks and takes a quick, precautionary step backwards. He licks his lips. ]

... what?

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

You look like you just saw a ghost.

[polarization]

I... [ He shakes his head. ] This is why you shouldn't want a card.

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

[His eyes narrow a bit as he tries to figure out what exactly he means by that...]

So, something did happen. You okay?

[polarization]

'm fine. [ He looks away for a moment, then slumps his shoulders a bit resignedly. ] You... have a lot of friends, right? Who look... weird, like you?

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

[He sighs] I don't really look like this. This is just what my in-game character looks like. I don't know why the Plane insists on... [He trails off, shakes his head, turns his attention back to Sefton.]

But, yeah, I do. Why do you ask?

[polarization]

In-game... what?

[ He finds his eyes lowering. This is just so weird, and he hates it already. ] I... saw them.

[silenteden.livejournal.com]

[Nod] In-game. A video game. Do you... have video games in your world?

Saw them-- huh? When, just now? [He pieces a little bit together, anyway...] Like, a mental flash of them?

[polarization]

Yeah...? [ Though, really, they're probably not much past the N64 era.

Sefton nods after a moment. ]
