Alma was tracing synchronicity when it dumped her into a bar with
Aaron and a new person. That was unpleasant but maybe necessary. If it was
she hasn't figured it out yet. Just because Aaron is... whatever he
is--well, she thought maybe she should tell him and the other person at
the table that she read something beneficial in the cards about the moment
they were in. Because Ace? Something is starting. and, Pentacles? Dude is
rich. Ok, that's not all there is. Maybe it's about a fortunate beginning. A good start for whatever plans
they're making. And pentacles are a very Hermetic looking kind of thing.
So it could be a card about Aaron and this person working together.
Maybe the Queen of Cups represents the new person. A new venture with an
intuitive person. Nurturing. Someone who understands people. Strength? Alma? She's strong. Strength is equanamous
reliability. She shows up on time. She held back the fire. He doesn't see
that. What a jerk. Maybe he needs to see the card to understand that the good news is from a source he shouldn't discount. But perhaps she shouldn't have blurted everything out like that because
that all could have gone better. It was so discombobulating that she drew
another card right there. And it was a _good_ one too. Good things from
the past contributing to the present? maybe the future? At first she
thought things went well enough. After all, Max asked to meet up again. But something happened. Kid shows up all nervous. And when the topic of
Aaron comes up the kid gets extra jumpy. Jumpy enough to throw something
/at/ Alma. Maybe she was trying to figure out if Alma had good intentions?
Alma just straight up asked. If that's what it takes for the kid to feel
safe around her, fair enough. There was some mutual stammering after that. Maybe meeting everone else can be course 101 and meeting orphans can be course 201. She made sure the kid got contact info for Wednesday--Emma too. The exchanged bugged Alma. It bothered her enough to text Aaron later: wtf did you tell that kid?! I just told her about your affiliations and associates. And how I wish you'd _ask_ before reading. about that. wtf. I didn't set out to do a reading about you. why do you even think that. The one time I wanted to help I _did_ ask. I was worried about A. Perhaps you should reflect on the impact of your actions, rather than your intent. look. I do my job and rarely think of you. It is not about you. you _may_
have come up in the cards this time. it pissed me off becuase it was
positive. yet I still went over to let you and hte new person know. I felt
obligated. It could have gone better. I admit. but dude! she asked to meet and then idk was freaked out or something you are infuriating I barely told her anything about you. Have you considered that the common thread in most of your interactions is you? dude, most of my intereactions with people are fairly positive Good for you. and stop assuming I'm doing things about you without your permission. Just as soon as you stop seeming to do things about me without my permission. and oh please stop being a dude who credits other dudes for pputting ideas in a woman's head. I think for myself I don't credit anybody for your ideas, I think they're entirely yours. I merely observe the correlation in time with certain things. Frankly, you should _want_ somebody else to take credit for your monumental stupidity. Alas, that is yours alone to bear. I had judgements about my tradition before I met other people time will tell It will indeed. good. you can update your priors then No need. I have not acquired any new data. You clearly think you know best, despite not knowing a damn thing. You clearly do not know me I know you well enough. I feel you think you know best, despite not knowing enough things. and I'm willing to admit I do not know you well enough I used to think your former mentor should be ashamed at how poorly they'd brought you in. But now it's clear to me that your mentor wasn't the problem. You can't teach somebody who is certain they already know everything. time and time again I try to tell you I am certain I do not already know everything! stop projecting Yet time and time again you tell everybody how they're doing everything wrong. Start introspecting. I only tell that to people who mistake high confidence with high certainty look, I don't have enough time for this Yet you feel capable of discerning the difference. I suggest you follow in the footsteps of Michael Jackson and start any change you want to see with the person you see when you look in the mirror. just to make clear. I do not set out any cards for you. Good. | |
