All the characters in my 4 Curses of Thomas Halyard series are already linked to one of the major arcana so in one way this should be easy, but putting it into words won't necessarily come easy

#DeckTheHalls

Today's card is: WHEEL OF FORTUNE
In the Deadman Deck, the Deadman curse is seen as a misfortune when the victim realises the nature of the curse. But it so changes the victim so that they come to see it as a boon. All the curses in the series bring good fortune in some unexpected way

#DeckTheHalls

Today's card is: THE FOOL

Alec Millsbury in The Hastings Deck, a writer of long, impenetrable pseudo intellectual tomes. He genuinely believes the genius he thinks he has will benefit humanity. His innate kindness unwittingly saves the day

I love the scene where Rico says something like , "Is that an ABC warrior? I'll take that too."

The film does well with the Judge Dredd/2000 AD aesthetic, but not so well with the spirit.

The Satanic Rites of Dracula turns into unintended comedy with the realisation that his lair is a deathtrap for vampires. The coffin room has a sprinkler system and has stakes just lying around. The place is surrounded by hawthorn and a picket fence with sharpened pickets.

Bruce Almighty. Morgan Freeman, as God, says "Parting a sea isn't a miracle, it's a magic trick. A single mom, working two jobs and still finds time to take her kids to soccer practice. That's a miracle."

#QueerPrompts December 6: Which character never quits?

Daryl never gives up on the quest to prove his mother's innocence.

"This is your medal. You can wear it wherever you like. "

It sounds exactly as though he is talking to an 8 year-old.

Anyone defending execution as a reasonable punishment for drug smuggling is a Nazi. Pass it on.

Another point is that the alleged murderer has not come to trial yet. Erika Kirk tends to make divisive and inflammatory statements about who she thinks is responsible. How can this guy get a fair trial?

The boat was split in half by the original strike? I hadn't heard that before.

Ouch. There are big Aussie wasps nesting in our eaves, but they seem happy to leave us alone. As long as I don't forget where the bull ant nest is, our garden is mostly harmless these days.

#QueerPrompts December 5: International Volunteer Day: Free Friday or where would your character(s) volunteer?

Daryl is known for helping people on the street who are exploited or too young. He helps them connect with social services or sometimes to reconnect with their families.

A boat that was small and light enough to be flipped over by two people swimming in the sea was capable of travelling 2,000 km?

Imo, if those boats were actually hauling drugs, we are simply doing favors for a preferred drug cartel.

Eliminating their competition and getting a kick back somewhere would be on point for this administration.

#WIPSnips December 4 "city"

From Music the Devil Cannot Hear.

It's Sunday and Jacob is recovering from a wild night on the town in London and a day looking for the kind of highly illegal sex that got him banished in the first place.

#QueerPrompts December 4: National Cookie Day: Are your characters soft, hard, or nutty? ๐Ÿช

Daryl is soft, hard or nutty depending on the situation. One character describes him, "He has two hearts. One soft and compassionate, the other hard and full of iron. Be careful which you stir."
