"And now I begin," Caitlyn said. She laid out the spread in the same pattern that she had for Madoka."Would you like me to begin?" She asked, wanting to make sure Melanie was ready.

"This is what covers you," Caitlyn said, flipping over the first card. The image on the card was a beautiful woman reclining on a throne. Her hair was black, and at her feet were a cow and a peacock. "The Empress." Caitlyn said. "Hera, empress of the Greek gods. It represents domestic stability and maternal care. It is a card of natural things."

She thought back to moving into the barracks so that domestic stability made sense.But she pondered over maternal care. "Does this mean I show maternal care or I had maternal care?" she questioned looking at the beautiful picture again.

Caitlyn shrugged. "To be quite honest, it could be either." She replied. "Perhaps the next card will reveal more." She placed a hand on it. "This is what crosses you," she said, and flipped it over. It showed a handsome man standing over the sleeping form of a beautiful woman. On a table next to the woman's bed were a pair of silvery-blue goblets. "The Two of Cups," Caitlyn smiled slighlty. "The figures are Eros, more commonly known by his Roman name of Cupid, and Psyche. The Two of Cups often represents the beginnings of new romance, partnership, or friendship. It can also stand for the resolution of differences."

She smiled thinking about her time with Jack on the beach.He was probably one of the first friends she had ever had and he sorta helped her.It was good to feel someone had simular problems to you.That your not alone. "I understand that one.I've made a few friends recently.The best I've ever had" she smiled.

Caitlyn nodded, smiling slightly. She, too, had made some very good friends recently. "Alright...This is the basis of the situation." She flipped the card over. It showed a blond man holding a caudecus, wearing a chiton and winged sandals. "Hermes, The Magician." She said. "He represents mastery of the material world, creative action, self-discipline, and a willingess to take risks. Also, the ability to recognize one's own potential, and a gift for communication and wit. Hrm."

"Sorry I must seem dense but I really don't understand that one" she puzzeled her face full of confusion.

[OOC: Be aware, I'm using my actual Tarot deck to do this,
Caitlyn shrugged. "Well, perhaps things will make more sense as the reading goes on. Could The Magician perhaps represent a person in your life?" She said. It was unusual for a Major Arcana card to represent someone; usually the Court Cards did that. However, it was not unheard of. "But let us continue." She reached out and flipped the next card.
"This is what is above you." She said. The form was a beautiful, blindfolded woman holding up a pair of scales. "Justice, represented by Nemesis, goddess of balance and vengeance." Caitlyn said. "She represents amicable and favorable resolution of conflicts, triumph over bigotry and prejudice, clarity, fairness, arbitration, a straightforward choice, and also legal matters."

"The magician may represent my dad.He liked to fix things but I havn't seen him in 8 years." Could the card for justice mean she would make up with her mother?"I understand what this card means.I got kicked out of my house so it might mean I make up with my mum"

Caitlyn smiled. "For your sake, I hope that is true. Perhps Justice here relates back to the Empress here." She tapped the first card she had revealed.
"Ah, but on to the next card. This is what is behind you." Caitlyn revealed the next card. It showed a pale woman with long black hair that seemed to be spangled with bright stars. "The Star, here represented by Asteria, a titaness who represented the stars." She shook her head. "The Star stands for healing of old wounds, promise, fulfillment, a broadening of horizons, and also influence over others nd protection."

Caitlyn felt a strange anxiety as she reached for the next card. She almost...didn't want to reveal it. Still, she had to go on.
"This is what is before you," Caitlyn said, "or your immediate future." She flipped it over. As she hd almost expected, the image was of a fallen man in Grecian armor. Stuck into the ground around him were ten swords. "The Ten of Swords," Caitlyn said, trying to keep her voice calm, "showing the fall of the great hero Achilles...The Ten of Swords reperesents sorrow, sudden misfortune, and, at its worst, absolute ruin...However, there is a positive. As this is essentially the lowest point, things can only get better, as they did for the Greeks at Troy..."

"Good things have been pretty awful recently" she sighed looking up at the sky "It's nice to know things will be getting better from now on but the bad fortune bit doesn't seem nice" she smiled

Tekka waltzed through the park, enjoying the typical sights and smells of the common area between the clans. It was then that she spied a familiar set up of Caitlyn with her tarot cards, flipping them over as a bystander looked on in awe. This was entertaining to watch, and so the young Tora sauntered over to the table, far enough away to give a sense that the reading wasn't being spied on but close enough that she could hear. A red shirt and blue jeans didn't really blend with the stone building, but it wasn't like she was banned from City Hall... yet...
"...but the bad fortune bit doesn't seem nice." Came the girl's voice, it must have been a poor reading for that card.
Tekka couldn't help but laugh a little at her voice, it wasn't inducing any pity and they were cards. While they were eerily good at predicting accurately, they didn't always turn out right. Besides, Caitlyn told the cards as they were without sugarcoating it. A good thing once you thought about it.
"It's supposed to be accurate, not nice." Tekka giggled, moving from her spot towards the table, unable to keep her curiosity in check any longer. "Hey Cait." She tipped her fedora in the elder Tora's direction in greeting, smiling. "Giving out readings I see." She peered at the interrupted reading and the results of the cards before remembering the other girl.
Immediately, her eyes flickered over to the wrist. She couldn't have been out of the clans, she was too young to be 35 and too old to be 13. It was green and Tekka's eyes snapped back up to her face. She gave a wave. "Hello! I'm Tekka, Tekka King. Nice to meet your acquaintance!"
