Professor, Zee Captain, Society Sweetheart - Lord Oswald J. Emerson, at your service. [Played by yours truly Seph (20s, she/her). Icon by letters-of-fire.]
[Image Description: Tarot card illustration of the Jovial Contrarian as Temperance. He is seated in his wheelchair and faces sideways, looking upwards with a smile. He holds a lantern with a raised arm and a wine glass in the other. Stylised water flows into the glass, while the lantern emits a bright teal glow. Flames in the background frame the entire card. The number “XIV” is written at the top of the card.]
A long time ago, I drew an entire Fallen London-themed Major Arcana. Some of the cards have held up well, and some haven’t. I told myself I’d never redo any of them, but since it’s been two years, here’s a complete redraw of the Contrarian’s card! (Original here.)

Instead of paying me, you can also donate equal amount to one of the charities for supporting Ukraine listed below:

Dearest Oswald - For one, we simply must meet up again soon. I would have written earlier, but I've been quite busy with our deadly nightshade and completely lost track of things. I've been meaning to ask, though, and it's a rather silly question - but do you have a favourite flower? I've noticed the rose on your ring, but you don't seem too enamoured by it. Yours, truly and always, Monty
Sweet Monty, I'm sorry to say you must be mistaken. I have nothing against roses, they are the Emersons' symbolic flora of choice after all. But as far as personal preference goes, I do find myself drawn to dahlias, purple acacias, hydrangeas and hyacinths. You could dazzle me with compelling factoids regarding all of them, no doubt.
Benjamin Sullivan, the honorable and somewhat mysterious court magician was married last Saturday to Lettie Hatter, formerly of Market Chipping. The other court magician was also there, presumably as a guest of the matron of honor, Sophie Pendragon nee Hatter, the bride's sister. They seemed wrapped up in some sort of disagreement for most of the ceremony though.

People who look at you always blink afterward. Perhaps the colour is that powerful. Perhaps they find themselves on the edge of a nap. They never remember there was anything odd about the sight.
