How will the public react to squid game 2?
(The hermit, 8 of swords, king of pentacles)
It’s definitely going to make less noise than the first one that’s for sure. I don’t think the public will necessarily appreciate the second show, it’s weird because there’s this theme of holding back and being alone in this spread so it’s probably gonna be criticized for it’s lack of understanding of the message that the first one sent? It’s like "you guys lost the meaning of the first one" "who wrote this?". I also think the sets,makeup,effects and stuff of the sort will be praised/appreciated because of the king of pentacles. To me it shows that the budget for the show was probably very expensive and it’ll probably be seen in the season. Like very extravagant, very big and bam bam idk how else to explain it lol. I also wonder if there’s not some kind of mindset that the writers have which coincidentally affect their work. Like they’re restricting themselves too much, they’re too afraid of doing something new which will end up backfiring because people will be disappointed they haven’t tried something more daring? Mostly in the storyline/dialogues. They’re probably gonna use the same mechanics that they’ve used in the 1st season because they are too scared to try something new. There is a lot of pressure on everyone who’s working on this project and it can be seen through that spread. I don’t think it’ll necessarily be hated when it comes out but more so forgotten? Like "squid game 2? Eh it was fine" yk?
Warning: This is only for entertainment purposes, take it with a grain of salt pls <3

Tarot Pull for 3/26 Kraken-Ducks!!:
ok this is gonna be a *fun* game!! kraken-duckies can you hear me it's a FUN GAME!! ok home reversed to me is pointing to the alleged discord ebs mentioned a little bit ago, cpa not feeling quite like home lately bcs of this etc etc BUT!! the messaging for the reversed card resonates to me bcs while the boyos cannot go on a trip/all star break pt. 2. I feel like that can also mean, shake things up a bit, trust yourself and your teammates yk? and then the devotion card again!! to me points to, at this point in our season the games are rlly about playing for each other and playing for the fans <3 and having fun with and being appreciative of that!! idk. to me these cards are good signs. i feel like this'll be a good game no matter how it goes 🫶
no imagery predictions bcs tbh I am hoping for 3 hattricks from the 3 baby squids and a michigan goal from matty and and a zegras hatty as well <3 in mariners speak we call that chaos ball... let's have some chaos ball!!
#chaos ball in a FUN way not whatever the Sabres game was#hi.... srry <3#anyways#kraken lb#seattle kraken#tarot pulls#matty beniers

Hello there kleo🙋♀️
Here for your villan game
Some facts
My initial are PPM
I am infj
My big three are
Sun in Capricorn Moon in tauras rising Aquarius
My lilith is in Aries sun mercury Neptune in 12th house Capricorn stellium (extra it may help youto channel)
I like to write
And I am lazy
Okay so I don't know about which villan to mention but I love characters like medusa maleficent Thor Bipasha Basu in Razz 3 (In this because of her jealousy on her step sis both were actress try to killed her but by haunting like she literally send bad spirit to create problems in her life she did this by the help of her bf which later on fell in love with her step sis )
Thankyou
Sending you love and light❣️❣️
Hello! I know it took me really long to finish this reading but here we go with your results for the I, Villain game! Yay!
Let’s find out what kind of a villain you could become if things turned to the dark side for you.
Cards: 15. Mithras - Loyalty (Deep, Dark & Dangerous Oracle), 2 of Earth - Hel, XV Corruption - Tlazolteotl, 4 of Earth - Sphinx (Dark Goddess Tarot), Knight of Pentacles, 5 of Swords, IX The Hermit (Dark Wood Tarot)
The cards suggest you might become a very organised and highly efficient type of villain with a bulletproof plan on world domination. Your villainous ego might be rooted in your past, you might be holding grudges against those who did you wrong and now it’s time for you to show them what monster they created. You might fancy riddles, puzzles or simply putting poor mortals through tests to see how they struggle and inevitably fail. You like to work from the shadows, pull the strings from behind the scenes, luring the victims into your traps acting pretty nice on the surface. Once you have guided them all into the depths of your cave labyrinth, like a glowing wisp that vanishes without a trace, you leave them there, struggling and slowly going mad from all the trials and traps you prepared for them there. Something like a Squid Game, only there’s never gonna be any victor apart from you. While you maintain a mysterious figure hiding in between smoke and mirrors, your victims will never know what hit them. You have emerged stronger and psychotic from all the hurt you went through in the past and you promised yourself to never ever experience harm and disloyalty again from anyone. You are really likely to work alone on your intricate plans and they might take time but the sweeter is the taste of success in the end when you don’t have to share it with minions (or chase them into the murderous labyrinth, too).
Thank you so much for requesting the reading!
I'm always grateful for any feedback.

Meet the Writer [tag]
@squid-scribe tagged me!! Thanks!
Rules: Use this picrew to make yourself and answer the questions
Three fun facts about me:
1) I have watched nearly 500 different anime. I'm a bit behind on some new things and have a to-watch-list about 100 long. I'm obsessed, so if you also have this interest feel free to chat me up! (Literally listening to the Dororo theme right now)
2) I'm a pagan who worships Lilith, Hecate, and Inari in particular, but also others. I'm a bit of a lazy witch and need to practice more, but ya know chronically ill and all that messes with everything in life. I am really good at divination, especially tarot. I've never had a bad reading, meaning every friend I read for says what I talked about with them helped. I also use pendulums and cast spells as needed. I have a box of herbs locked up in my altar along with candles and gems and all, though I stick to a small subset of items for budget. Not a crystal hoarder lol.
3) I'm a bit of a fashionista. I love clothes. If you need style help consult me~ For myself, I'm big into girly clothing. Lots of dresses and romantic looks, but also punk and corsets and fairytale vibes. I calmed it down some as I age, but I used to stop people in their tracks in college lol. I could never afford clothes or pick my own before college years, so I really went all out.
Favorite Season: Want to say Winter, but lately it affects my body more in bad ways, so I'll say Autumn.
Continent where I live: North America, sadly in the USA and I want out.
How I spend my time: Lots of doctor visits, anime, sleepy bitch, writing for my multiple series (mostly Arigale rn for a while), gaming, and spending time with my partner (married). I also enjoy cosplay and attend a con every Nov. with my illustrator and best friend.
Are you published?: Yes! I have the first book of Arigale out right now (self-published) and plan on releasing two more books at the end of 2023.
Introvert or Extrovert: Introvert by faaaar. T_T I want to talk and meet people, but it's so hard.
Favorite Meal: Oh gosh. I spent a half year in Osaka, Japan in college studying Japanese and the culture and I'll never forget the food. Feed me anything Japanese and I'm pretty happy. Katsudon, sukiyaki, mochi, okonomiyaki, taiyaki, yakitori, bentos, don bowls, miso soup, ramen, that delicious ginger dressing on salads, shabu shabu, curry, tempura, oden, onigiri, inari udon, soba, etc. forever.
I'll tag, hmmm: @authoralexharvey @author-a-holmes @human-still-developing

BLOOD TYPE: a
SPOKEN LANGUAGES: japanese, english

born to a working class family in tokyo, nana is one of two children. her mother, a seamstress, taught her the trade. her father, a fisherman, was gone often, while her sister excelled and became a nurse. nana was not disengaged, but merely had more artistic interests, and took her inherited / taught talents as a seamstress to her hobbies in fashion and pop culture. her mom currently runs a small shop called needle & thread! near the red light district for hemming, tailoring, alterations, and anything few and far between. her dad is still working as a fisherman, getting ready to retire, thus is still gone a fair amount.
nana works with her mother at their family business with plans to continue her mother’s legacy. they are close and tell each other practically everything, nana’s mother being her best friend ... with akira as a close second.
she met akira through mutual friends when she was 19 and he was 22 and they hit it off rather well, though to a slow start. they began playing MMOs and other games together, chatting online before proceeding with their blossoming friendship.
nana dated kaito, someone she vaguely knew in high school and became closer with post graduation, when they were both 20. they dated on and off, primarily on, for four years before separating. for the last year, they have tried to date here and there, but, after a few months of this, they eventually call it quits again.
their romantic relationship ended due to different interests in their futures and nana not seeing one together due to kaito's verbal lack of interest in marriage and having children sooner rather than later. their breakup was technically amicable and semi-mutual, though it was nana that ended things. insecure and hurt, kaito believes that akira is part of the reason nana decided to call it quits.
#/ * BEST FRIEND ( ADACHI NANA )#/ * HEADCANON#ill link this in my doc#and make one for kaito and yogi#now that they're picking up traction and aren't just characters for akira's story

PAC: Park Jimin’s bday! What spiritual transformation(s) will you go through in this life?
I love Jimin. I can’t tell you how much, just trust me. I picked this topic for his day because I feel like he’s a perfect example of someone who goes through challenges and uses them as a catalyst for transformation.
That and he has scorpio mars/venus, so CHANGE is in his DNA (see what I did there, ahaha... ha... love you, Jiminie!)
Please choose a photo (1, 2, 3) and scroll for your message.
Pile 1: BV4 Jimin in NZ
Pile 2: 2020 MMA Black Swan Jimin
Pile 3: 2019 Muster Jimin
Pile 1
I would’ve cried if lunar eclipse came out with Pile 2. It’s always fascinating when the oracles line up with each other as Lunar Eclipse says it is “a time of seeing the light”. Basically it’s 5 of cups. It also reminds me of the doll in Squid Game.
Okay, so... this is a pile that’s not going to have it easy. I feel like there are going to be paths you go toward and no matter how much effort you put into it, it’s not going to pan out. I suppose the comfort in that is that path wasn’t meant for you, but that doesn’t make it any less heartbreaking. All of the oracles - for me - indicate a series of challenges and disappointments, but they’re meant to challenge you and bring out your character. Like your own personal Squid Game... isn’t that... uplifting to know... even though, really, why would I expect any of those characters to be moral when they ended up in their situations because of their immorality, but hey... you can’t argue with hype.
The good news is in the tarot, we have six of wands. On the one hand, this would mean that eventual success will come to you, maybe even to the degree of fame, or it’s that you do achieve a certain notoriety in life and being famous or well-known or out in the public light will also be a source of your personal challenges, despairs, insecurities, having doors shut in your face.
I”m kind of seeing this 8 of wands as a barrier and by barrier I just mean a hurdle, like watching horses jump over those... obstacles.
There’s also a lot here in the tarot about communication, especially online, and writing - so this may be a pile for people who are interested in careers as published authors, musicians, poets, artists, public speakers, etc... But to get to that dream, you’re going to have to go through a lot. It’s also possible that challenges you experience will fuel your art and then you end up sharing that with others.
I think fragmentation is a bit about our inner personalities? You know all the different sides of us and this matches up with lunar eclipse again and the idea of “phases” that are dark/light. I also see the fragmentation as the light coming through the cracks - so I see you going through, unfortunately, not just one or two low/dark/depressive phases, but... several, but each time you come out stronger and knowing who you are more than before. Kind of like a pokemon that can only evolve through a series of tough battles.
I’m sorry my analogies are so dumb for this pile.
I’m focused on this queen of swords eyes being shut which brings me back to lunar eclipse (and squid game) - you know the game where the girl bot closes her eyes and they do red light green light... but that just means, like the game, you’re going to experience a series of starts, stops, failures, restarts, etc... but in the end, the people (who survive) do end up at the finish line.
It also feels like there’s a degree of luck involved with your situations and sometimes you think it’s on you, when really it’s just bad luck. I really hate that I’m relating everything to squid game bc it’s just an okay tv series for me but there’s all kinds of obvious references in this pile, so maybe a lot of you are watching it now or just watched it or really liked it or are going/will go through similar experiences of being down on your luck. The cactus, too, makes me feel like I should tell you to prepare for battle since it’s a plant that has to rely on its reserves to live in a desert. So, you’ll have to really rely on your inner power/strength/will to push forward.
So yeah basically you’ll transform through a series of hardships in this life, BUT the universe seems to think you can handle it and it does serve a purpose, and it seems to be for two reasons: 1 to inspire a sort of art or expression that could have an affect on others 2 to prepare you for when you reach a certain level of success that you can handle the hardships that come along with that without crumbling underneath the pressure or responsibility
Any personal messages I see here, too, are... creepy squid game robot girl and there’s a hand under the table on not for you?
It makes me think of a “divine” hand or something that’s guiding you, basically all the things you go “why me why did this happen” are part of a pre-determined game plan and you’ll have to navigate your way through the challenges. Sometimes you may feel like a pawn, but I guess it’s more like, you know, you’re really the queen because you are always free to move however you like. I also want to say that some of these challenges will feel entirely unexpected and out of the blue, may even include traumatic incidents.
Right, personal messages - so like I said, I get a lot of intelligent people here, people who are good at speaking or writing or just tend to overthink and analyze before they make decisions. I see you as someone who does dream about some kind of goal that includes being famous or acknowledged, recognized. I feel like you might be impatient for this to happen. I also see - I know this is a birthday reading - but I actually feel several birthdays coming up soon, so maybe a lot of Libras and Scorpios here, so perhaps that’s also why you might soon be center of attention. I see you wanting a better life for yourself, and you may have been working on this goal for a while, feeling like it’s not ever going to come (there are cobwebs on the six of wands)... and you know, it may not come until the later part of your life bc Queen of Swords looks like she’s older, you know, so late 20s, 30s, 40s... there’s no rush to get there bc it’ll come eventually IF you persist through all of these challenges you encounter and reserve your strength for until the end like you would have to in, say, ... squid game.
I don’t need to say SQ, i should probably mention chess... I mean sq and chess are both long-term strategy games... I think that’s why qos is here, too because this is a long-term strategy game the universe is putting you through to set you up for various wins and losses, but really the tarot cards show that you will eventually succeed and triumph, so those challenges aren’t your punishments or anything, they’re challenges and some will just be natural parts of life, too, bc life is all about balance - there’s good shit and bad shit. And it’s not always about you, that’s just life, y’know... and there may be times where you compartmentalize aspects of yourself, feelings, thoughts... it might be difficult at times to see the wider perspective... but yeah like I said, even those dark parts of ourselves are just... parts of us, not good or bad, just... normal, and it all depends on how much power we give our “weaker” parts and by weaker i guess I mean low vibe moments...
and yeah I see a lot of colors around the heart and crown chakras... so probably a lot of transformation around heartbreaks... sorry. but the good news is good things will come out of it, especially if you can write a memoir that blows up. and also in this light card it talks about seeing the space between the trees which reminds me of that saying “can’t see the forest from the trees” which is a quote about perspective and seeing the bigger picture.
i feel like i’m being pretty cheeky here, but that’s bc this sounds like the type of pile i would pick and i’m like yep... thanks... that’s great, love... learning through hardships and challenges when others have it easier...
but really strong, amazing people and projects and advances come out of situations like this and maybe you’ll end up playing some type of “hero” role. and you can’t be a hero if you’re all spineless and weak, so the universe dumps on you to prepare you like a really strict and terrible parent who tells you that they’re only trying to do what’s best for you by making you practice your clarinet for 8 hours a night instead of doing what other kids get to do.
---
Pile 2
Okay, well, so this reads strongly of being in an incubatory phase. There’s a lot of cards indicating a lull, pause and also an indication that you should put focus toward details, organization, reprioritization. It’s very strong virgo energy and not just because of sixth house... peace, aloe vera, well, hermit... two of pentacles reversed also emphasizes a need for organization. Calling the storm is also about a storm coming in for a reason so that you can regain perspective and reorient, or take that time to rebuild or focus on what’s priority or what you need to build... basically I see you as the person trapped in that egg and I say trapped bc I’m a gemini with barely any earth, so no offense.
I guess I see six of cups and 2 of pentacles as indicating this being more a past energy, like... in the past you were lacking in any preparation or maybe you weren’t even prepared for something that came into your life and kind of blew things apart and now you’ve retreated back into this headspace of needing to be alone, to rethink some things and strategize. I do feel like it’s... someone who goes through a tornado, is left with a broken house, and it’s just you out there in the cornfields and then you have to rebuild the house on your own.
I FEEL like if you aren’t really a person who’s very grounded or into details or organization... it’s... a time to do that anyway. There’s really something going on if someone’s hitting you upside the head and going “bro, bro really? bro get your shit together.” Not as in you’ve been doing everything wrong, this is more like THIS IS A VERY POINTED AND SPECIFIC PHASE OF PLANNING AND STRATEGIZING. given that this is a reading about transformation, i feel like this is something you are going to have to learn in life and it even may hit you unexpectedly if you don’t learn it on your own... if you’re someone who hates being alone, if you can’t sit still, if you don’t invest in the long-term... this is something that you’re going to have to learn one way or another. or, it’s a sign that you need to slow down... the other message about sixth house has to do with health/body, so - this isn’t for everyone - but i would read this as perhaps you’ll encounter a health or medical issue (yours or someone else’s) and it’ll teach you what’s most important in life and on top of that, it’ll slow life down to a crawl so that you regain perspective... i do feel like there will come a time where you are humbled, however that may happen, you may even think quite highly of yourself and then get knocked down a peg. i feel like part of the journey is about discovering inner peace, inner calm... something i think will be extreeeeeeeeeemely difficult for this pile. bc i feel like your energy is bouncing around, i feel also this is a pile with those who might even be codependent in relationships - like you really don’t like being alone with your thoughts for too long so you’ll have to figure out how to be comfortable being alone, with yourself, being happy in your own company. and the aloe vera/restore also indicates a time of things needing to come to a stop or pause and having to restore yourself before moving forward... you’re the egg, you’re the hermit card... i’m... going to say this bc... not to scare you but the calling the storm really worries me bc i really feel like you have the potential to be blindsided bc you missed all of the signs to stop or slow down - and like i said, this could come up as a health thing or a job thing or... something that affects your daily routine in some way but obviously big issues that come up will always affect that... i also feel like - i mean it’s affected everyone - but covid would’ve had a huge affect on this pile, more than most, and may even be a pig part of your challenge, but was a necessary one bc it’s gave you a lot of time to think about things and sit with yourself even if it’s been uncomfortable... this would be a pile i’d suggest doing some inner child work, too. i feel like that’s been neglected a bit...
there is a “humble” energy to this pile so... how can i put it, it almost feels like a lot of folks who would have a north node in an earth sign when their south node was fire... or even like uhh aquarius north and leo south... any of the calmer, more “subdued” signs might be where your headed or at least a north node that would imply more structure. not bc there’s anything wrong with being full of fire and air or excess emotion... but for some reason... you need to be slowed down and given more foundation...
overall transformation stuff aside... this is a good time for people drawn to this pile to... chill, be introspective, don’t rush anything, get organized. if it hasn’t hit now, maybe it’ll hit as jupiter goes direct into aquarius on the 17th... maybe you’ve already started pulling away from people and going into that internal space... and if so, you’re right on schedule to do so. :)
or jk being in the pic threw everything off and he threw his virgo energy into the mix which tends to happen lol

Pile 3
it never fails. even if i threaten the other piles i’ll only take 1 card per oracle deck, pile 3 is like - but i need multiples of all and extra tarot. why do i keep taking them? i dunno bc it’s typical. it even wanted 3 of the black moon oracles and i said no, you can have the ones that flip showing the image, so i put one away and i think it was the revolution card.
so, saturn coming in strong for this pile, saturn is going direct on the 17th in aquarius. saturn return may be a thing for this pile.
these flower oracles are very interesting... both talk about how we choose to react to external situations... i’ll quote dandelion: “do you think becoming is an experience of passive emergence or a process of active transformation?” and chanterelle: “what actions do you undertake that cause disease in your life?”
and then it just hit me jimin wrote the bridge for “Dis-ease”... that’s weird.
okay my first impression is that this is a pile that’s going to have to learn how to process their internal reactions to external stimuli. this is... a pretty tough task imo bc i’m still working on this myself. this is a lot about becoming a person who’s strong enough/secure enough/loves themselves enough inside to no longer be bothered by other people who haven’t reached that same level of vibration and EVEN are secure enough to extend sympathy and understanding to such a person. imo this is the ultimate in spiritual evolution. you’d have to really achieve that perfect inner calm and when you react to someone else, even if they’re screaming in your face (which isn’t acceptable and you can stop them however) but you don’t have any real immediate reaction TO THAT and aren’t offended bc you see that the situation has nothing to do with you and is all about them and that person’s wounds and how they’re projecting onto you and even though they’re attacking you, you only see their hurt and feel sorry for them and also are even able to feel gratitude for how far you’ve come and what you have.
so just with these two flowers alone (plus you have truth and love and all these optimistic oracles plus queen of cups and world...) i see a transformation, this “becoming” being about developing an “immunity” to things that don’t matter. and that would totally involve becoming more like the queen of cups, someone who’s got a control of their emotions, who’s also sympathetic, as well. like if you’d gotten the king, i dunno, but for sure with the queen... there’s a level of empathy here, even in the face of... restrictions, i guess. and then i feel like on the simplest level, your truth is about love... and that’s not just loving others unconditionally but loving yourself as obviously you have to love yourself before you can extend that to others and no longer react to triggers.
saturn-truth and thinker go well together too bc ... this isn’t a sort of thing that can happen over night... this is... someone who’s had life experience and, tbh, this feels like someone who would have already come out on the other end of their transformation, with a pretty good spiritual alignment... even the elements are pretty balanced... you don’t have sword cards here, but thinker stands in just fine. and today for tomorrow gives me gemini vibes but when i see this card, i think more of... well i think the original meaning has to do with... sacrificing things today for the future but then that means not being able to appreciate the present. so there may be a message to that about slowing down, so you may have also been drawn to pile 2. but intuitively what i see in that card is... the struggles that come your way are to prepare you for the future. i actually get a lot of optimism from this card in this particular reading... i also see this as you taking other people’s hands and supporting them bc other people may have supported you on the way or even if you felt no one is there, you want to be someone’s future strength.
let’s get back to the black moon cards. so the truth card is equal to 3 of swords, venus is equal to the empress (i’m not making it up it’s in the guidebook). i mean it should be obvious that i feel like this pile jumped over your challenges - thought i’d say they’re probably a combination of 1 and 2 since those piles actually had those challenges come up. so my thoughts are a lot of you were drawn to 1 and 3 or 2 and 3 or if you’re already at a pretty good place spiritually, you jumped right to 3. bc to have empress and 3 of swords... you’d have to be someone who’s experienced many heartbreaks and disappointments, especially when it comes to relationship and/or work/money. You would have put a lot of time and effort and thought into understanding that hurt when it internalized, you would’ve done the shadow work on your reactions... that takes a lot of time... that’s why maybe the saturn return would come up as a possibility - you may be well into your 30s before you’re able to achieve this sort of balance or mindset, and 30 isn’t even old, that would be... quite an accomplishment to have this sort of inner peace by 30. you’d have to be jesus-level. and he was, what, 32? forget. or was he 28. hm. i thought he was the same age as kurt cobain. kurt was 27 and jesus was 30 to 34 for the record.
so yeah part of the transformation is a restriction that (to start) was placed on your heart or emotions, so the transformation will be overcoming that - whether it’s disappointment in love or people... and then doing a complete 180 and... learning to love people for those flaws, or, well it makes sense I brought up Jesus bc... I’m kind of a jesus fangirl, not bc of religious reasons bc, I feel like Jesus had a lot of self righteous rage like I do, so when he saw people being a fool, he would’ve called them out. Like, Jesus would be an online troll today, always going after bigots and stuff... he flipped tables and was awesome. That’s the sort of Jesus I admire, not bc some set of rules that magically appeared on a tablet and told us how to “behave” or what was right or wrong, but... he had principles. He wasn’t perfect, he was clearly human, here to have a human experience and a rather traumatic one at that - even though, well, we all come here to have a human experience only to DIE. we just all don’t die by crucifixion and getting stabbed with spears after being betrayed by those closest to us.
though sometimes in life it certainly feels that way. metaphorically.
and so i bring up jesus bc... you know these people hurt you, you may even know you have some type of cross to bear. it may be a very isolating and lonely journey full of heartbreaks people will never understand, you may never receive apologies or closure, the people closest to you will betray you, but you still continue to move forward AND you don’t become completely cynical and even learn to feel sympathy for others, even if they’re cruel to you.
there’s this thing in catcher in the rye that i love... i love when holden talks about whether or not judas went to hell for betraying jesus and killing himself and holden said he didn’t think jesus would let that happen but then whoever he was arguing with - i forget if it was his parents or a schoolmate or teacher - were like that’s blasphemous to say. granted, that was just the author projecting his own shortcomings and hoping for forgiveness, but i still like that idea of jesus feeling sorry for judas... bc tbh i feel sorry for judas that he was basically used as a pawn to facilitate the moment that leads to jesus’ predicted sacrifice...
my point is there’s a lot of LOVE here that springs from a really deep pain... of constantly being let down and just... yeah. but instead of being a dillhole, that you turn what you’ve learned about life into something that can spread joy or hope in a sincere way. that’s why this dandelion card makes me think of someone spreading their “seed”/message (not like that you pervs) but maybe since the empress is here and it’s all about fertility but i read this more as the birth of a message or you could create something that can spread a message of love through art or writings, but it can just be the way you choose to live your life with love. i see you as being able to become very wise and able to offer advice to those in pain...
right i didn’t even really get to the tarot yet... not for all but yeah this would be a pile of old souls. i feel like some people will chose this pile out of habit and ... i don’t want to say it doesn’t apply, that’s not nice, it probably means it’s your potential, i just personally think that it’s a long way to go in life before people achieve this and some people THINK they are like this when there’s still lots of ego attachments but that’s me projecting and nothing i see in the cards so i apologize for projecting and being cynical as i’m not at this stage. i’m probably pile 1 >.> and 2. and i’ll stress again no one is born this way... venus is emerging from this clam as a full damn adult, not to mention i think pearls are created bc pressure and mud and... it takes a lot of time. also since 6/4 is here and i think pearl is the stone for june this may have a lot of gemini or early cancers... but i already said i had gemini vibes... sun moon risiiing (and venus).
let’s look at the tarot... queen of cups, world, strength, knight of pentacles.... this is the ideal, right... with knight of pentacles, there’s a sense of being earnest, of hard work, of being dilligent and pushing through even if at times it felt like everything was moving very slowly, but it’s a very solid, reliable, will not break energy... this fits with the world, bc this is also earth energy, it’s one about cycles, it’s about creativity bc of the 3 it comes down to, it’s success, it’s the literal world, it can be had work and restrictions, karma. saturn is a very scary and intimidating planet, like... tough love.
in this particular deck when i look at the world - i see the masks on the trees as representing all kinds of people... but it could be choices or parts of ourselves, it could be the idea of how we’re all the same so things we see in other people (if they trigger us) are just reflections of who we are and next to the queen of cups, i do see this as someone who recognizes the darkest and best parts of themselves in other people but also loving people regardless of their background or where they come from bc in the universal scheme of life life, we all come from the same source. in theory. strength is strength, i usually would just say wow will power, but i’m actually reading this as the sun and how the sun keeps everything orbiting around it with its pull, but the strength card is about that inner strength so this is... someone with the inner strength to keep everything external of them going and moving together in a calming, organized way... again this is an energy that’s like... enlightened master level... i do feel a strong sense of judgment and karma... well i shouldn’t say judgment since that’s a pluto card so just karma being dished out bc knight of p guy is making this list, saturn is about karma...
so this is someone who is aware of karma and will receive the karma they’re due... but i also read this as for people who have a very specific role to play in life that will probably make them - as the kids say - a light worker? someone who learns the truth through life and spreads the truth... and by that i mean... spread light and spiritual knowledge - not in a weird cult-y way i hope but through actions and the things they create... you’ll have a lot of impact on other people and the planet as a whole, its energy, etc... i feel like what you do in this life will spread in ways way more than you even realize and then that will take root in other people and they’ll spread it too... and part of that message involves... teaching or reassuring people on... how not to react in negative ways... and that’s bc i can’t put this into words... it’s more like... pushing people in the correct direction of spiritual evolution. there are a lot of people going the wrong way but there are also a lot of people becoming more open to spirituality these days and so that message will still probably spread more than it ever has but it has to to keep up with all of the negativity in the world and to really even spread that message sincerely and have an impact, one would have to gain immunity TO that negativity. does that make sense? which is probably also why the world came up in terms of a cycle. you go through a cycle to evolve and then assist others to go through the same cycle and they assist others, blah blah
like look at the strength card. bro has an axe in his head and he’s unbothered and he’s tough and can handle anything anyone throws at him. but he’s also just in these old overalls. he’s not wearing anything fancy. there’s humility to this card. a quiet strength... but it’s a mighty strength. and the world card reminds me of the light oracle pile 1 got about looking at the spaces between trees (like that light coming through). i was going to go on a starseed rant/tangent but i’ll hold back bc all beliefs are valid, i take more issue with... those who just have an egotistical attachment to labels and a need to create some type of superiority hierarchy >.> so what i want to say is looking at the queen of cups sometimes you may feel like an “alien”, you may feel lonely, misunderstood, like you don’t belong, especially when you look around and everyone else is at each other’s throats and that can hurt your heart as well... but somehow you manage to find that balance to... empathize? i’m not at that stage yet so idk. i get the idea on principle but some people (a lot of people) really fuckin’ suck ass.
but idk, your transformation is about becoming an unbothered king/queen.
to relate it back to jimin at the end of all this, it kind of (all three piles) remind me of the evolutionary period of his life, spiritually speaking, and i can only say that as an outside observer, someone who doesn’t know him personally at all. but i feel like he went through pile 1 as a stage, pile 2, and will achieve pile 3 or is at least on to that stage bc i feel like anyone who is THAT much at the level of being in the spotlight will have their journey escalated? which is probably why the pressure becomes too great for some celebrities... i feel like well it’s obvious that being a celebrity would bring out a lot of insecurities or negative behaviors or coping mechanisms, especially at a young age and then as you get older, you have to learn how to cope with those internal feelings while also learning not to be bothered by the external. and that’s not just celebrities, that’s all of us, that’s maturation and age, it’s just that like i said, a celebrities internal process for that is way thrown off or accelerated bc their challenges/restrictions are way more intense than someone not under that pressure. i mean, some celebrities are just douchebags like any person can be... i think jimin is a good person who went through various phases that were kind of like an internal conflict of this is who i am vs this is how people see me or this is how i feel i need to act and then everything else that goes with being an idol and becoming an adult, etc...
i’d be very excited if pile 3 is his final evolution. i’d like for the people i respect and care about to be happy, for sure... so i’d like if he went from a queen of swords energy to a queen of cups... that was longer than the other piles. that seems unfair, but... “so whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat”

the Nightflower Trio (and also Gabe)
I love making tarot cards and I love dnd and I love my friends. This group and this game has been one of the best things in my life for years now. Our squad is collectively too dumb to remember to use potions and we’re carrying around a piece of a dead god, but most importantly, i have a pet squid.

tarot asks: temperance & the moon 🌙
squids! love seeing you pop in my dash and inbox, my friend! 😀
temperance: can you describe a strange dream you’ve had?
pretty sure i had a dream about ian gallagher last week but now i don't remember it 😃
i get nightmares pretty frequently, i had a nightmare one time that this really stereotypical-looking scary witch was swooping above my head and trying to get into my body. my spouse woke me up because i was thrashing around 😱
the moon: have you ever written a love letter?
definitely when i was younger and ~in love~ (as in 13-18 years old lol). but not as an adult! my spouse wrote me one when they first told me they loved me and i still have it ❤️️

Tropical Soda Islands- Part 2 (?) Teaser
🪄 Heya guys! After consulting my tarot cards and looking at what we have so far, we have some news on the update that’s gonna be here in a couple days for Cookie Run: Kingdom, including a new raid boss! Please note that what I’m about to tell you isn’t a 100% guarantee! After all, stuff that can appear in the future can change at any time before it happens!
Tropical Raids
Tangle with a Giant Squid, and help your friends along the way! Once you play most of the other modes, including World Exploration, Today’s Bounties, the Kingdom Arena, the Tower of Sweet Chaos, and the Tropical Soda Islands, you’ll be able to join the fight! How do you get rewards? That’s easy! Participate in your own raids, defeat raid bosses, inflict lots of damage, and help your friends a lot! The Deep Sea Season is coming soon!
New Cookies
Speaking of squids and sea life, we’ll meet Squid Ink Cookie and Sorbet Shark Cookie!
Sorbet Shark Cookie is an Ambusher who can turn into a shark to use a special skill: “Shark Splash”. When using this ability, Sorbet Shark turns into a shark and ambushes enemies towards the front, inflicting area damage. On top of that, additional damage is dealt to two enemies in the splash zone with the highest maximum HP, but the follow-up damage can’t target anything summoned mid-battle! If this damage is targeting general enemies, then it’s just damage. But if the follow-up attack is targeting other Cookies (y’know, found during random encounters in World Exploration, Arena encounters in the Tower of Sweet Chaos, and most notably being the Kingdom Arena), the damage dealt becomes True Damage that’s calculated on their HP pool.
What’s True Damage? That’s damage that completely ignores your enemy’s Defense and Damage Resistance statistics when dealt against them. It still has a bit of a random charm to it though, with the actual damage dealt varying as much as 5% like every other kind of damage dealt.
Squid Ink Cookie is a Magic Cookie that can turn into a Giant Squid- HOLD ON! We’re fighting a Cookie that’s practically the kraken?! Does Squid Ink take interest in magic tricks? …no? What if i threw in some gold coins?
💎 …that’s not how it works, Cinnamon Cookie. That is how you attract rookie thieves and others that are blinded too much by their own greed to approach it reasonably. In any case, this Cookie has possession of the skill “Ink Tentacle Slap”, which turns Squid Ink into that Giant Squid we mentioned earlier to slap the opposing half of the battlefield in a hail of tentacles. This sea monster-driven tentacle storm will cause massive damage to their entire formation several times over.
UI Improvements
We also have some notable improvements to the UI that are worth mentioning now compared to later. Your storage can now be separated into categories:
Buildings
Decor
Tiles
Waterways
You can also select multiple buildings and decors to move them all to your storage in one move. As for toppings, you can see every bonus effect that you can get from upgrading a specific topping on its details screen. You can also manage toppings that your Cookies are already using, y’know, just in case you wish to upgrade their toppings, break down a topping that serves no use for them, or replace it with something better.
Once that update launches, the following events will end, but could you pull off an eleventh-hour miracle if you haven’t gotten the most of everything yet?
Mango Gacha Banner
Lilac Gacha Banner
Tide Shard Missions
Tide Shard Stamina Jelly Missions
Tide Shard Gacha
Tropical Fragrance (once the event ends, you’ll receive the rewards noted in the in-game bulletin for the highest ranks to which you promote Mango Cookie and Lilac Cookie)
Cake Tower Rearguard
Actually… one more thing. As for the Cake Tower Rearguard event, we did not cover how that event nor how the Vanguard event works, despite being the same thing. While the now-expired Vanguard event rewarded anyone for reaching lower trays, the Rearguard event will only reward true challengers that can conquer trays numbered 91, 100, 105, 110, 115, 120, 125, and 130. The Rearguard event ends on August 16th, and any tray rewards that you are entitled to can be claimed until August 30th.
Just a fair warning for any aspiring adventurers that want to take on the tower and plunder it’s riches. If you considered your first trip into the Hall of Enlightenment to be impossible, then you have surely not taken a look at the upper echelons of that tower of cake and chaos, as basically every tray in the upper half of the tower will require utmost attention and preparation to conquer the Cake Monsters there and reap their jewels and other valuables. You also need to keep track of your collection of Searing Keys prior to challenging a tray, as you can’t attempt a tray if you don’t have enough keys to use. If the Cake Monsters of the tray defeat you in battle, then you’ll have to use more keys to attempt the tray again. Because these keys only restock to your limited storage once an hour, plan your strategy carefully so you don’t get stuck waiting for them. You can always buy more from special traders (AKA the Package Shop), but those packages will cost real money compared to coins or crystals. Even if I did manage to sneak off with everything undetected, being at such a lofty tray would constitute a long plummet down to the base below.
However, even if scaling such an imposing structure is not your forte, kingdom sovereigns of all skill levels can log in daily to claim a daily supply cache filled with its own valuables to bolster your forces now, or to save for later. These supply drops can be collected until the event ends on August 16th. That should be all for tonight. An encounter with a beast of the deep awaits…

Part 1 - Chapter 16.2: Fortune Teller
Summary: You’re running for your life when you cross paths with an ex-bounty hunter and his small, green companion. You never thought you’d find someone throughout the whole galaxy who was as lost as you.
Pairing: The Mandalorian/Din Djarin x Female Reader
Word Count: 5,407
Rating/Warnings: M for mature content. Swearing.
Chapter 16.1
[Part 2]
Note: (Slight AU) Here’s the second and last of the epilogue chapters! Next up, Part 2 of Lost and Found. I hope you enjoy, and thanks for reading! 💜🤍
---
In your past, there had been days when you wondered if you’d make it to your twentieth birthday, let alone your twenty-seventh. And yet, here you were, eagerly following a Mandalorian warrior down into the hull of his ship, a green alien child giggling and bouncing in a satchel against your side, the three of you about to venture out into a strange planet to celebrate that very occasion. After everything you’d been through over the course of twenty terrible birthdays, the fact that you were experiencing pure, unadulterated happiness on such an occasion felt like a dream.
And it was all thanks to them. Your partner and his kid. The day itself didn’t matter. It was getting to spend it with them, the two people you cared about most in the entire galaxy, that made it the greatest birthday of your entire existence.
What more could you ask for?
“I have something for you,” Din said quietly, stopping just before the side ramp where you and the child were waiting patiently to disembark.
“Like a gift?” you asked, tossing him a cheeky grin.
Din huffed out that quiet chuckle of his at the familiar words and played along.
“Perhaps.”
He stepped towards his weapons locker, then halted for a moment and glanced back at you over his shoulder.
“Close your eyes,” he ordered. You did so, attempting and failing to keep your elated bouncing to a minimum. After a moment of quiet rummaging, you heard Din move back in your direction.
“Hold out your arm.”
You tilted your head a little, eyes still closed, brows bunching, and held out your right arm.
“Left,” he instructed. You made the correction.
Something cold pressed against your left forearm, encompassing it entirely. Whatever it was, it took Din a few seconds to secure before he finally told you to look. When you did, your mouth fell open and you found yourself at a complete loss for words.
The thing that now encased your left arm was a vambrace. It was very similar to the one he wore, buttons lining the belly of it, while the outside was a hard, silver shell.
“Not beskar, but it’ll do. Keep the shell on the outside to use as a shield in a fight, if you need one. The inside is set up with the same controls as mine for the Crest and the kid’s new pram. There’s room for more controls, which I’m sure you could find some uses for. But, all in all, it’ll help you avoid things like this-”
Din pointed a finger at the long scar running down your right arm, helping you understand his motivations.
“You made this?” you asked him, astonishment in your tone.
Din shrugged. “I know you’re more than capable of handling yourself if you need to. But I find myself… uncomfortable with your lack of armor.”
In other words, if you couldn’t wear Mandalorian armor like him, he’d find another way to make sure you were protected. Safe. And that spoke volumes to you. In your past life, Thasar had tried to bribe your love by giving you trinkets and pretty things. Meaningless things, without a trace of true love or thought behind them. But this...to give you something so practical, something made with your safety in mind, plus all the controls Din knew you’d enjoy messing with…
Gods, I love him.
You wanted nothing more in that moment than to whisk his helmet off and kiss him. But as you’d lamented many times now, intimate moments with Din were hard to come by. There were just too many problematic circumstances that prevented them. So instead, you lifted onto your toes and kissed the underside of his chin, right where you knew a scar to be, having spent the last weekend exploring every single one of them.
“It’s perfect, Din. Thank you.”
The rest of your birthday afternoon and evening was spent visiting the last place on your list of vacation destinations. As it turned out, this suggestion of yours triggered a memory in Din from his early childhood. One you both shared, apparently.
Going to a festival.
You’d always begged your parents to take you to one when you were younger, hearing about them from other kids your age. Evidently, so had Din. But that was before both your lives had shattered in their separate but similar ways.
Your parents had died when you were six, his when he was eight.
You felt a sense of melancholy, going to such an event without them. But your goal over the last four months had been to enjoy your freedom, and to experience all the things you had missed growing up. So you would regret not taking this opportunity to go. Especially on the last night of your respite before jumping back into yours and Din’s responsibilities; especially on your birthday.
The festival that Din was able to find was some kind of seasonal celebration, not too different from the summer events you heard about from other children on Earth. An overall celebration to kickoff the start of their warmer months. The point, though, was that it had vendors, games, food, rides, and seemingly endless entertainment.
It was perfect.
You started with food. Well, food for you and the child. The plan was to eat and shop, then make a trip back to the Crest to drop off purchases and give Din some privacy to eat something himself. The child thoroughly enjoyed the meatier options, nibbling on beef and squid skewers, while you indulged in sweeter, deep fried treats. Terrible for you, but how could you resist the opportunity? As you ate, the three of you perused the stalls, much like you did at Din’s favorite trading hubs.
The vendors mostly sold handcrafted knick-knacks and collectors items, nothing you really needed for dangerous space travel, but it was fun to window shop, and you did want to at least find a small souvenir to hold onto in order to remember this time in your life. There were a couple stalls run by craftsmen and armorers, in which you eagerly checked out, hoping to find more items to add to your growing collection of weapons. It was hard to justify spending credits on something, though, when you already had a blaster, a dagger, and now a vambrace, plus your pick from Din’s own collection.
Instead, you found a military-grade weapon cleaning kit. You purchased it while Din was examining a few blasters in the adjacent stall, and quickly stuffed it into the satchel under the child to keep him from seeing it. You wanted it to be a gift for his… well, you didn’t actually know when Din’s birthday was. You’d have to find out and hope that you hadn’t missed it in the last few months.
After a few more purchases, and a quick drop off and break back at the Razor Crest, your party returned to the festival as night began to fall and went in search of rides and games. The rides were where you lost Din. He merely stood by and watched as you and the child went from spinning in giant teacups to riding the kiddie train around the perimeter of the festivities. Din donned the satchel and kept watch over the child while you tried the rides that were a little less child-friendly. They were exhilarating and fun, of course, but you quickly realized that they were an experience you were alright with trying the one time, just to know you’d done it.
With some coaxing, Din participated more in the games, especially the marksmen ones. It didn’t matter that they were completely rigged. The vendors took one look at the imposing Mandalorian and knew they wouldn’t be conning the credits from this particular patron. In fact, a few of them bribed him with bigger prizes than what he’d initially won, just to stop him from playing any longer while people watched.
The child got a few new toys out of that.
Hours went by, more food was consumed, rides taken, games played, vendors visited, and street performers watched. While you and Din were not huge on the crowds of people, you could tell that he was enjoying himself just as much as you and the child were, even if he simply appeared to be a Mandalorian bodyguard following you around to anyone looking on. You knew it was Din here with you. The man, not the warrior.
Eventually, your energy started to flag, as well as the child’s. You could sense that Din was about to suggest calling it a night when you spotted something on the outskirts of the festival. You gasped excitedly and trotted in its direction as Din called after you, following. When you approached it, you could practically feel Din’s reservations behind you.
It was a small carriage, like the kind carried by horses in the old fairy tale books your mom used to read to you. Only, this was stationary on the side of the street, painted in deep reds, blues and golds, with soft tendrils of smoke seeping through the open back window. A large sign in front of it advertised tarot, dream, and palm reading.
A fortune teller.
“I’ve always wanted to try this sort of thing,” you gushed, turning back towards Din and gesturing at the carriage. Din’s helmet tilted, hidden gaze finding yours, body language screaming skepticism. You sighed.
“Yes, it’s most likely a complete hoax, but the point is that it’s fun.”
He said nothing.
“It’s about the-” you gestured vaguely with your hands. “-the vibe of it all. The experience.”
Still nothing.
“Okay, well you can keep standing there thinking it’s a complete waste of time, but I’m going to-”
The carriage’s door popped open then, and an elderly woman bundled up in a corset and wrapped in scarves stepped out, solidifying the stereotypical aesthetic of a medieval-looking fortune teller. She looked between you and Din before giving you a warm smile.
“Are you here for a reading?” she asked.
“Yes. Let me guess, you sensed that your next client was near.”
“No,” the woman stated, her no-nonsense tone making your smile falter. “I could hear you arguing through the open window. At first I thought you were arguing with yourself, but now I can see that it was simply a one-sided conversation.”
“Oh,” was all you said, deflating a little as Din snorted softly.
The woman gestured for you to step inside the carriage, and you quickly glanced back at Din, sticking your tongue out at him as you followed her inside. He shook his head, and leaned himself against a nearby stone wall, settling in.
The wagon’s interior looked exactly as you expected it too. An extravagant, colorful rug covered the floor, the middle of the space housing a low tea table surrounded by lounging pillows. The walls were lined with shelves, cluttered with dusty tomes, jars of various items, crystals, and candles. And you loved it! As you had tried to express to Din, visiting a fortune teller was about the entire experience, not just some stranger telling you that you’ll marry within the next five year, have three kids, and live a happy, comfortable life.
You sat on one of the pillows, eyes still taking in all the details of the wagon as you twisted the satchel around so that it and the child could sit comfortably in your lap.
“What kind of reading would you like, my dear?” the fortune teller asked as she joined you.
“I guess that depends on what you charge for each,” you admitted. She relayed her menu to you, and you decided that you could justify spending the money on a palm reading. You passed her the credits.
“Thank you,” she said, slipping them into a coin purse. “Now, all I want you to do is relax. Take in a long, deep breath, hold it for three seconds, then release it. Do that as many times as you need, and when you’re ready, hold out your dominant hand.”
You hesitated at her instructions, glancing between your right and left hands. The thought had never really occurred to you until now, but… you were right handed, unless you were using your power. It was involuntary, like a gut reaction, but you always used your left hand when you were trying to control that force.
Seeming to sense your conflict, the woman’s warm smile from earlier returned.
“How about the hand that’s been dominant the longest?”
You agreed, and performed her breathing exercise a few times before finally feeling more relaxed. When you were calm and collected, determined not to give the woman any obvious tells to use to her advantage, you held out your right hand for her to take.
The fortune teller leaned forward, bending over your palm, gingerly taking your hand in hers and-
She sucked in a sharp breath, dropping your hand and flinching back as if she’d been shocked by your skin. It wasn’t really an exaggerated reaction, and for a second, you wondered if it was an act, for dramatic effect. But then her eyes darted up to meet yours, and you knew she wasn’t trying to have you on. You read turmoil in her eyes. Turmoil and devastation.
“What’s wrong?” you asked slowly, not really sure you wanted to hear the answer. It took the woman a moment to compose herself, and when she did, her smile was now sad.
“I apologize, Y/N. The images of your past were very... overwhelming, and they took me by surprise. I shouldn’t have reacted like that.”
You stiffened, your entire body coiling, already kicking into flight mode.
“I didn’t tell you my name.”
“You didn’t tell me about the scars on your back either, but I know that they are there.”
This time it was your turn to flinch back. At that, the woman huffed, tilting her head and giving you a disbelieving look.
“Honestly my dear, you didn’t really walk into a fortune telling business with an understanding that other powers exist in this galaxy, thinking I couldn’t possibly have some psychic powers of my own, did you?”
Her demeanor helped you unclench, curiosity outweighing your instinct to run.
“I just thought that, with a shop like this, you’d be-”
“A complete and total con artist? Well girl, you can’t tell a good lie without throwing a little bit of the truth in there. You’re not wrong. I’m a very successful con woman. But that’s only because I can use what information comes to me naturally, and bullshit the rest.”
The honesty in her tone was evident, and also refreshing. You couldn’t help but chuckle at her admittance, but then a thought made you sober.
“Are your powers like mine, then? Like the child’s? We’re looking for-”
“I know,” she cut in. “ But I’m not what you’re looking for. I can only see and feel things, not move things with my mind or compel the weaker wills of others.”
You nodded, disappointed. But the chances that you’d find one of these “Jedi” before you’d even started looking were minimal at best. It was nice, however, meeting someone else with strange gifts; someone who had been able to find a way to use them without dark intent… even if it was to help her con people out of their money.
After a moment, the woman spoke again.
“I apologize again for seeing something I shouldn’t have. Sometimes, there are energies in a person that are louder than others, and at this time in your life, your past definitely seems louder than your future. But, I can tell that it’s something you don’t care to talk about. If you’d permit me to try again, there was a flash, a moment where your future was peeking through. I could focus on that, and at least give you your money’s worth for this reading.”
You were reluctant, knowing now that she could see things you rather her not see. But the damage was already done, and while you were uncomfortable, you still felt safe. You had your weapons, your powers, and your Mandalorian outside. Only moments ago, the idea of getting a reading from a hokey fortune teller was all fun and games. But now, there was the possibility that she could see something useful, something that could point you and Din in the right direction. Whether it be towards the Jedi, or Zekir, it didn’t matter. She was right. You wanted your money’s worth.
And so, you held out your hand for the woman to examine once again. She still cringed when she made initial contact, but it was very brief before her eyes fogged over with focus, her vision boring into your hand as if she could follow the path of every last nerve ending.
“I see curtains. Sheer, white curtains.”
You scrunched up your nose, perplexed.
“Curtains?”
The woman snorted. “Hey, I don’t get to choose what I see, honey. There’s a lot of interference, and what I can focus on at the moment is curtains.”
“Sorry,” you whispered, urging her to continue with your silence. When she did, her remarks were very disjointed, as if she was sifting through the loud mess of your past to see or sense the tiny tidbits of your future.
“A cabin. Warm, white and yellow colors. Home, simple, quaint. You’re joined by the presence of two others. Hard to accurately pinpoint, but I’ll use my bullshit guesswork here and say that they belong to this child in your lap and that armored fellow outside.”
You chuckled, holding back a smile.
“You’re very calm, grounded; I’d say you’re even at ease. Your past feels quieter, as a lightness fills you, exudes from your very skin. There’s simply too much to really focus on the details, but I can at least feel what you’re feeling, and it’s joyous.”
The woman tried for a few more minutes, but as she said, it was hard for her to focus on more than that. While it wasn’t the information you were hoping for, it wasn’t at all unwelcome information.
“Do you see things that are absolutely going to happen?”
The fortune teller smirked and shook her head. “Of course not. You of all people should know that the future is not set in stone. For a long time, you were convinced that you wouldn't make it to twenty. But here you are, happily celebrating your twenty-seventh birthday. I simply saw a strong possibility. But it could still change. You could wind up having purple curtains instead of white. I’ll warn you now that they would clash horribly with the aesthetic of that little cabin, but it’s a possibility nonetheless.”
You laughed and nodded. “Well, either way, thank you. That possible outcome sounds very pleasant, and I’m happy to know that it could truly happen someday.”
Just as you were about to stand to leave, the child in your lap squirmed, then reached out his own three-fingered hand, eyes trained on the fortune teller. She gave a hearty laugh, eyes dancing as she met his.
“You’d like a reading too, huh, little one? Very well. And since you’re so darling, this one’s on the house.”
The woman took the child’s hand in hers and told him that he’d have a hard but fulfilling journey, and that he’d live to be several hundred years old. You suspected that she was more the con artist in this moment, than the actual seer, until she winked at him and said he’d delightfully consume many frogs in his lifetime. That must have been the truth she used to fuel her lie.
When everything was all said and done, the woman followed you to the door, escorting you and the child out of her carriage. You beamed as Din glanced over from the wall he was holding up and met your gaze.
“Satisfied?” he asked.
“Very,” you quipped, eager to tell him back at the Razor Crest that the fortune teller was the real deal. However, before the two of you could start heading back, the woman called over, addressing Din.
“I’m going to insist that I perform a reading on you as well, young man.”
Din paused, glancing back in her direction. Young? The woman was a terrible fraud if she really thought “young man” was a fitting assumption. Granted, he wasn’t really that old, but “young man” sounded like something one would call a teenager, or a man your age.
Din kept the snark from his voice, though, when he replied. The entire charade may have been a scam, but your time with the fortune teller seemed to make you happy, so he’d at least concede that she’d helped you have a little fun on your birthday, and politely said, “No, thank you.”
“I strongly believe that you’ll regret the decision not to hear me out, Din Djarin.”
Din halted, and you gaped. You met his eye and your brows inched upward, clearly in awe that this fortune teller knew his true name. He knew you wouldn’t have told this woman, a stranger, whether you believed the con she was spewing or not. So Din sighed, and turned back to the wizened woman.
She nodded graciously at him, then stepped aside, directing him to enter her cart. Din cast another glance in your direction, and you merely shrugged. Then smirked.
What did that mean?
Din ducked into the warm cart and sat, thankful for the filtration system in his helmet. He had a feeling that the incense burning in the corner would give him a headache. The fortune teller took her seat in front of him, and watched him carefully. She was like an old crow, eyes glued on her dying target, waiting for him to take his last breath so she could feast.
“I understand that you might not believe the things I do. And that’s fine. As I told the girl, I admit that a good portion of this business is conning the gullible. However, I really am gifted with the sight, and if you truly care for that girl out there, you will want to heed what I have to say.”
So this was about you, not him. Din remained silent, reluctant to give the woman any tells. Unfortunately, while his armor hid his expressions and reactions from most people, his body language made him an open book to those who knew how to read the language. A con artist fortune teller was definitely one of those people. When she didn’t get a response out of him, she nodded, as if satisfied.
“I will start by saying this. There is darkness in all of us, Din Djarin. Sometimes people can overcome it, while others cannot. To some, it may be just a drop, or a puddle. To others, like you, it is a well. That isn’t to say that the darkness of one person is greater than another, or that the experiences of those with only a drop is anything less than those with a well. I like to think it represents how hard one has to work to become the person they want to be, in spite of the person they think they are, what a person thinks they are worth.”
Again, Din said nothing, and waited for the woman to get to the point.
“For Y/N, that darkness is a pit. A yawning, bottomless pit that she is trying so desperately to climb out of. When I was reading her, I could tell that you-- regardless of the exact parameters of your relationship with her-- were like a lifeline, a rope thrown over the edge in order to help her up. The child you are caring for together helps as well. Like a light that is guiding her out. Her muscles are sore, and her spirit is weary, but she will stop at nothing to reach the top, and find the two of you there, waiting for her. The future I gave her is one where she reaches you, and is able to bury the pit. Not entirely. But enough that she doesn’t have to fear falling into it again.”
“Are you going to warn me that you varnished her future? Doctored it up so that it was something she wanted to hear, instead of what she needed to hear?” Din asked, unable to keep the irritation from his tone.
“No. I told her of a future I really did see. But, as I told her, no future is actually set in stone. The sight is like an experiment. You can control certain variables, and arrive at a certain outcome. However, there are always external, uncontrolled variables that can come into play. For example, at one point, there was a future in which the Mandalorians never came to your rescue, and you were killed that day by that droid.”
Din’s entire body seized, and he felt the urge to roast the fortune teller and raze her cart to cinders.
“There was a future in which Y/N never found you, and she did everything in her power to end her existence during her recapture, knowing full well she wouldn’t be able to psychologically survive going back to Thasar.”
Din’s fingers clenched into a fist, and his jaw worked. Just who the hell was this woman?
“There is a future in which she climbs out of that pit. Several, in fact. However, of all the outcomes I had seen when I touched her hand, an alarming majority of them show her falling back into it.”
“So you’re warning me then, that she’ll slip, and won’t be able to climb out again,” Din stated, but the fortune teller’s frown deepened, and she shook her head, eyes clouded in sadness.
“No. I’m warning you that she won’t want to.”
Din hesitated. “I find that hard to believe. Not for one second that I’ve known Y/N have I seen her stop fighting. She’s possibly the strongest, most stubborn person I have ever known.”
“While this is true beyond more than you currently know, she is on her last leg. She has fallen, over and over again, and as much as she thinks she can bounce back each time, she can’t. If you don’t believe me, then consider how she was willing to die rather than go back to her enslavement. You know of what I’m referring to. You saw her eyes when she was back in Thasar’s grip.”
“What will happen then, if she doesn’t want to get back up?”
“There is a force in her that is, overall, fairly neutral. It’s been growing stronger, the more she’s felt love and acceptance from others in the last few months. But it has also grown stronger the more she feels hatred, and rage, and sometimes… sometimes nothing at all. If she falls, that power too will fall to her darkness, and the consequences will be irrevocable. The girl you know will no longer exist. She’ll die in that pit, and something else will climb out.”
“The past is easy to see,” the woman continued. “It’s already happened. The sight, of course, isn’t so transparent with the future. However, there is one thing I felt in Y/N with absolute certainty; there are two possible events of immeasurable grief in her future. Either one will happen, or the other. Both are devastating in their own right, but one she’ll be able to overcome. Unfortunately, with the amount of bad outcomes outweighing the good, I fear that the second instance is more likely.”
“How do I know this isn’t just some elaborate hoax?”
The old woman glared at him.
“Haven’t I proven with how much information I know of the two of you that my business isn’t a complete sham?”
“It’s all information Y/N could have easily shared during her reading.”
“I don’t need to see your eyes to know that you don’t believe that for a single second, boy.”
Din said nothing. The woman sighed.
“You know it’s all a possibility, because you’ve already seen her slipping. In that moment between her and the Twi’lek. You came around that corner, looked into her eyes and saw that pit. She didn’t even look like the girl you knew, the girl you cared about.”
The old woman stood as Din clenched his jaw. He knew damn well you wouldn’t have breathed a word of your past to a complete stranger, just like you wouldn’t have given her his name. This fortune teller was the real deal, there was no denying it. It wasn’t so far out of the realm of possibility. He’d seen stranger things. For gods’ sake, he’d watched you straight up mind control someone once.
The woman plucked something off one of her shelves and turned back to him as Din also stood.
“As a sign of my earnestness, this conversation was free of charge, as was Y/N’s reading.” She tossed him the coin purse you must have given her to pay for your reading. “In all the long years I have been with the sight, I have not once seen something so terrifying, and so devastating as that girl giving up after all she’s been through. For my own peace of mind, I hope that I have helped her in some way, and that’s enough payment for me.”
“In addition, this is the best parting advice I can give in all this. Keep looking. I can see that you will find who you are looking for. I don’t know who they are, but they have similar powers to your girl and child out there, and they know what it’s like to lose someone to their darkness. They will be able to answer some questions you have about them. And there are others you’ll meet along the way who will be able to answer some questions you have about yourself.”
Din hesitated before asking, “But meeting these people, getting those answers, it doesn’t change the certainty of the two possible events you mentioned?”
“I’m afraid not,” she murmured, tone heavy with remorse.
Din felt the woman’s sincerity, and finally, with only a small amount of reluctance, nodded, and said, “Thank you.”
He made his way to the door, but the fortune teller spoke up once more.
“She’s seen it, you know. The outcome of what you’ve been planning for some time now. It seems her powers give her some kind of sight as well.”
“What are you talking about?” Din rumbled, turning to face the woman.
“The good future I told her about. She’s seen it too. In a dream. Not that she remembers it, though, and it won’t come to pass exactly as she’s seen it. But I just thought you should know. In that ideal outcome, whenever you finally decide to make that journey, to take them both somewhere safe, it works, and she’s happy. All of you are.”
“It just depends on all the external variables that pop up between now and then,” Din stated matter-of-factly.
She smiled gravely. “Exactly.”
The fortune teller watched as the Mandalorian left her wagon. She crept over to her open window in time to see your strange group walking away, assessing as you animatedly chattered at the warrior as he led you down the street.
In this moment, you seemed so happy, just content to be accompanied by those that cared about you. And after everything she had seen in you from one simple touch-- the screaming, the pain, and the darkness-- the fortune teller couldn’t help but lament that you deserved more. For the first time, she felt like her gift was more of a curse. To see such a divide in your life, know that it was inevitable, and not be able to help you avoid it? A curse indeed.
However, you did have a Mandalorian in your corner, and a fine one at that. One that was going to be able to mend a connection that you couldn’t, and that was why she had chosen to warn him, not you. Still, the woman did not like the odds. Not one bit.
As the three of you disappeared into a throng of people, the fortune teller sent out a silent prayer to whatever gods looked over this galaxy, and murmured, “Good luck.”
