Today’s deck is the Fairy Taling Tarot.
It’s a nice deck with a fun aesthetic, but the most curious part of it is its packaging.
I have no idea if it’s an original or a pirate copy, but regardless the fact that the cards came in the exact same packaging you can get meishi on is hilarious.
It’s kinda roundabout, but today’s reading feels like it’s warning me to keep an eye on my tendency to take things up on my own and then complain I feel alone.
I woke up to some chores and pay some bills, then after that I went to Japanese lesson.
V wanted to check some shop by HEP5 so I went to make sure it was open. HEP5 is basically the center of fashion in Osaka. Fashion here tends to be really relaxed UNTIL you’re by the HEP5 area.
We went yesterday and it was closed and I THOUGHT it was still closed because its ferris wheel didn’t move, but turns out they’re renovating it until next year.
After returning for a spell and going back out with V we checked the shop and she wasn’t feeling the fashion but I was surprised at the prices, I kinda expected them to be twice as much I guess?
We had Okonomiyaki at Yukari, we didn’t get this post’s namesake but we had a Hiroshima-style one.
From there V wanted to go to Evil but we had time to kill so we went to Athena in Nipponbashi. Athena is basically the local small “all the fighting game sickos go here” arcade. V played Touhou and I decided to see how rusty I was with BlazBlue.
While the arcade layout messed with me since 90% of my experience comes from the PSP, I was SHOCKED at howhow easy it was to remember all the Noel combos.
Couldn’t get the supers out but I did shockingly well regardless.
We left in the middle of an arcade run with Platinum and much fun was had regaling the Japanese with tales of America’s heathenous and depraved amounts of cheese in food.
We stayed right after the trains stopped and I figured hey let’s just find a cab later. And now I know where the closest cabs are from my regular bar.
That might be very good knowledge or very bad knowledge, we’ll see.
