Opening of the Fifth Seal

[ex_fatalist246]

[Leaning on his desk, his white uniform a bit dusty, Commander Hiwatari has a pile of very, very old books. They are the type of book you don't normally get access to, the ones locked up for their historical value in vaults and chambers, never granted to the public.]

Anyone who has received a Tarot Card or a note from 'J,' please report to me.

I'd also value reports from people who know others who have received cards.

... a census?

[sunkenlight.livejournal.com]

Did you get one too, Satoshi?

[lovethepossum.livejournal.com]

Oh! I got both; rather interestin' really... Though I dunno where I put the note.

[hideous-soul.livejournal.com]

{He doesn't, but I AM COMMENTING!! Even though I won't reply for a while, but.}

I have not received one, likely because I've only recently arrived, but those books are unusual. What are they about for you to warrant dragging them from their dust?

[ex_fatalist246]

If anything happens, it may be helpful.

[ex_fatalist246]

[he looks at Roxas, slightly jolted by the name, though really Cally should have gotten him used to it]

I returned mine.

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Do you have some information regarding them?

[ex_fatalist246]

[this is unsurprising]

Do you have the card still?

[polarization]

[ He nods. ] Been trying to find people with 'em too, but 'm not having much luck.

(ooc: Oh, right! If you can, please describe how Satoshi feels during this thread. Please and thank you. ♥)

[ He looks a bit confused by Satoshi's surprise, but seems to give a mental shrug for now. ]

You did? Why?

[ex_fatalist246]

[Satoshi gauges the newcomer with cold analytic interest]

They're just texts on Tarot.

[dritte-tochter.livejournal.com]

Did you get one too, desu?

[ex_fatalist246]

Not yet. All Tarot cards have meaning. It seems logical that their power would connect to that meaning.

[ex_fatalist246]

I returned it. [twice] Do you have yours?

[brigadiertardis.livejournal.com]

Assuming one is using the power of language and not some other source.

[dritte-tochter.livejournal.com]

You did? [pulls hers out, holding it between both hands] I do, desu. Why?

[lovethepossum.livejournal.com]

Um... I think I do? D'you want me to check back on the boat for it?

[ex_fatalist246]

Do you know any names or their cards yet?

[ooc; Sure! 'Generally not much' will be the default, hahah]

[ex_fatalist246]

[Satoshi brushes a strand of hair from his eyes]

I don't trust the people here.

[it's mostly true]

What card did you get?

[ex_fatalist246]

[his annoyance is almost tolerant]

If it isn't too much trouble.

[ex_fatalist246]

Do you have any suggestions?

[ex_fatalist246]

[he nods] I'm trying to record who has what card.

[polarization]

Didn't catch many names. The cards were... [ He thinks about that. ] The Fool, the Star. Somebody named Axel had the Ace of Cups. S'meone named Chris had one, didn't see what. [ small hesitation ] Mine's the Lovers.

[sunkenlight.livejournal.com]

[ Which makes Roxas kinda sad. ): Aww. ]

The Ace of Swords. Which one did you get? Before you gave it back.

[hideous-soul.livejournal.com]

And quite valuable ones, it would seem.
