Interesting Author's note: I played with Feath's Tarot readings generator today.My thoughts on what came up in italics, and if I didn't leave a note, I'm still thinking it over.

• What is Alexander's flaw? The Devil: Ravage, violence, vehemence, extraordinary efforts, force, fatality. o.O That is so on the money, but I'm not sure how to work it into the scene with him and Deats.
• What is Ferris' flaw? The Hanged Man reversed: Selfishness. I can see that, especially since it would be selfishness caught up in a motivation lie that he's doing good.
• What is Raven's flaw? The Emperor: Stability, power, protection, realization, a great person, aid, reason, conviction, authority.
• What is Deats' flaw? The Tower: Misery, distress, indigence, adversity, calamity, disgrace, deception, ruin, unforeseen catastrophe.
• What is Jane's flaw? Judgement reversed: Weakness, pusillanimity, simplicity, deliberation, decision, sentence.
• What is David's flaw? Strength: Power, energy, action, courage, magnanimity; also complete success and honours.
• What is Sally's flaw? The Moon reversed: Instability, inconstancy, silence, lesser degrees of deception and error. She's a teenager; it so fits.
• What is Robert's flaw? Wheel of Fortune: Destiny, fortune, success, elevation, luck, felicity.
• What is Peg's flaw? The Hanged Man reversed: Selfishness. Second time was the Hermit: Prudence, circumspection; also and especially treason, dissimulation, roguery, corruption.

What I hate about my writing: Spending all the words on blog posts.
The Good: WORDS!
The Bad: So it's been a while for this story. Basically with everything going on, I didn't have the spoons to fight my muse and let her frolic in the Dark Knight Rises for what was supposed to be a weekend and ended up taking a whole month.
What I Accomplished in the Narrative Today: Alexander and Deats are talking about why Alexander went to Prague.
Fave line: "Yet he leaves Mother and spends over half her pregnancy in Europe on business before dying in Prague on my birthday? That's not a man excited about having a family; that's a man running away from one."
What I'm looking forward to: Well my finances blew up in my face, so I need something new to look forward to.
What I'm not looking forward to: Organizing all the images I've found of a major location stand-in.
