[ Suffice to say, when the bags had made their rounds to the Sleepers of this place, Jean had gone through a rewinding of time and with everything that had been going on for her, checking to see she had a bag waiting for her hadn't exactly been on the top of her priority list. Now, however, it most definitely is and why she's calling the other woman given their previous discussions. ]
What do you make of it? Besides the fact that it seems the cards are not necessarily showing any sort of similarities or patterns in terms of design.
( this is perhaps going to be the most honest discussion she's ever had with someone that wasn't an angel. or her husband )
I've heard about tarot through time, seen how it became more integrated into certain cultures and customs but it wasn't a practice I ever learned. It's supposed to be a way of divining information.
[ She gently twists the hand holding the card from left to right as the woman speaks, gaze lingering on the tower of skulls that are depicted on her own. Not exactly a pleasant looking card? At least in comparison to what she's seen. ]
About the one the card is given to, I would guess. Which would possibly explain similar personalities being given the same card... or perhaps similar struggles being faced.
That sounds likely. I admit I didn't look to see what had been distributed.
( particularly not whilst she'd been young at that point and afterwards-- it hadn't seemed like a big priority. maybe she'll see if she can find a book in the library to do some research on it )
[ The pause that comes from Jean is not from the offer of being shown the card that the other woman has be given, but from the sudden feeling of someone being there behind her... only for there to be no one in sight when she turns to look over her shoulder. Silent, she lets her gaze wander around the room for a moment before she brings herself back to the conversation. ]
Yeah- that would be something we could probably do. Maybe sort through everything else in this bag as well. [ Because the card is certainly not the only thing she found in the bag. ] Did you have some place in mind?
The library if you wanted to find a book? Or my place.
( which was infinitely more private for such conversations. depending on how quick jean wanted to come and talk about it would depend on what she could prepare too )
[ And she finds herself smiling as she says that. A joke. Mostly. But the privacy of the woman's place is certainly a little more favorable given the delicate nature of such a topic they're discussing. ]
( she'd ended up finishing that bottle over the course of that first week but she'd gotten another in for such occasions, the reminder now making her smile )

Do you know anything about what you have?

[ She hesitates for a moment with revealing which one it is and the design depicted on it before finally letting herself say it. ]
It says The Tower on it... with a towering pile of skulls for an image.

( and now that they were talking about it-- maybe she should look hers up )
I think mine would be easier to show you.
( if it was about messages there was a lot in the image alone )
