What are my birth cards?
He's watching me with fascination from his bed. I'm struggling to get dressed under the spotlight. I brought my church clothes with me because I don't want to miss it two weeks in a row. He doesn't mind. He's not making any move to get ready, so far. I fight my stockings, clipping them in a crooked fashion. No one besides Caleb is going to see them anyway and when we get home after lunch I can change.
The Tower and the Chariot, I believe. I'm a bit rusty though.
And what do they represent for me.
Sexuality, violence, control. Bravery, danger.
You're kidding.
Actually no. I'm not. You are indicative of an unstoppable force. No matter what the obstacle or the cost.
Jesus. He thinks about it while I button my dress. He thinks some more while I put on my over the knee socks (church is cold) and then while I button my tall boots. He thinks while I put my jewelry back on and when I stand in the doorway waiting for my dismissal.
How do I change my fate then, Neamhchiontach?
You can't. That was Lochlan's point when I was young.You act outside of it and you'll still come back around. You just fight it until you can't anymore, I guess.
What does that mean for us?
There is no us. My fate doesn't include you.
And I'm gone, running flat out through the rain from the Devil back to God. Back to Sam. Back to Lochlan, who isn't going to church either, I bet. He doesn't go all that often, since the church and Lochlan share a mutual distrust of each other. It's no surprise, as the church has no use for spiritists and they have no use for the church.
