Tana-baa-ta

[survivaltricks]

WHO: everyone!
WHERE: the pasture
WHEN: day 22, all day

[the morning of day 22 begins with a light drizzle, as has been typical for the past few days. but despite the damp weather, a playlist of music also echoes across the pasture, luring you towards the center!]

[there, you will find that someone has planted a large bamboo tree, which is surrounded by wooden tables that are covered with colorful slips of paper and pens. a colorful sign, decorated with random doodles of stars, clouds, suns, and other fun shapes, contains a set of instructions:]

WELCOME TO TANABATA!

WRITE A WISH ON A PIECE OF PAPER AND TIE IT TO THE BAMBOO TREE.

HAVE FUN!

[the music and the bamboo wishing tree are a great start to the festival, but other people have been hard at work to make this a day to remember, right?]

[it's time to celebrate Tana-baa-ta!]

((FEEL FREE TO MAKE YOUR OWN TOP LEVELS IN THIS POST AS WELL! I made a few to get things going, but you should all run wild and free and thread to your heart's content ♥))

Isn't the future what fortune telling is about?

In its most hopeful moments, yes. But understanding the future, is, quite often... just as facet of understanding the past. 'There is nothing new under the sun,' so the saying goes... it's why we can even hope to tell come what next, in the chaos of... each new tomorrow.

Draw the other card. ...But with your other left hand.

A hand is a hand.

A hand is a hand. But the cards are interrogating you, not just anyone. This is merely a way to become... well introduced.

Alright. Two cards. You don't need me to tell you what makes them special from one another.


Which do you wish to learn from, first?

Yeah yeah yeah... Fine, do the one you're so curious about.

The Ace of Diamonds.
..."Manifestation." New beginnings. An open field of potential before you.

What an interesting future.
