Björk Songs as Tarot Cards

IX. THE HERMIT i live by the ocean and during the night i dive into it down to the bottom underneath all currents (Anchor Song)

[sevenswcrds]

@esoteriks​ liked for a starter 

Shadowborn thing, she carries energy like midnight in her very bones, and it’s not- disguisable, not from others of magic or power. Or if it is, she’s not bothered to learn how. 

The energy of this place, of this person feels like how she imagines some find sunlight; but for her it’s harsher, burning like a flare too close to skin. She half wants to shift to scales, just to feel less open in the moment; doesn’t. 

For once, aggression is not- beneficial, and the flames lick against the back of her teeth again, emotion drawing it up her throat. 

“- I’ve heard you’re something of an expert on- most things with magic, and I was wondering if you’d- felt a presence. Here.” Lost her quarry to take down another, but the lasting one can’t get away; lest it devour at the roots of energy itself. 

“Sick. Cold like a heatless fire and empty as the void, hungering and never sated and toxic as volcanic gas.”

“EACH TIME YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH, you say something I wasn’t prepared for. So, come again? You eat what now?”

@esoteriks​​  asked   —✴︎☽    ❝ you want to ask, so ask. ❞

perhaps  they’ve  been  spending  a  little  too  much  time  together  ;  but  thor’s  never  been  much  for  shying  away  from  powerful  magical  beings  who  might  rapidly  be  growing  tired  of  him.  besides  .  .  .  sometimes,   the  consequences  of  all  his  pestering  can  be  quite  welcome.   as  a  young  prince,   he  had  made  it  his  mission  to  understand  the  perspectives  of  the  many  beings  that  inhabited  asgard.

unfortunately,  most  of  those  beings  were  amphibians,   and  making  it  sound  like  thor  had  any  choice  in  the  matter  does  a  disservice  to  loki’s  genius.

 ❛   have  you  tried  it?   being  a  frog.   it’s  peaceful.   no  worries,   just  hopping  from  lily  pad  to  lily  pad,   fighting  in  the  occasional  rat  war.  do  you  think  you  would  be  able  to  turn  me into  one?  ❜

@esoteriks, what is best in life ?

It had been many years since Conan, son of Corin and Gaira had slipped out of Cimmeria into the darkness of a new moon to seek his fortunes and adventure. He had been a pirate, a soldier, mercenary, and lover but now he was becoming something else entirely- a hero. And soon he would be king. 

Soon. But not yet. 

That mantle of hero was still new, it chafed in places and didn’t quite fit in others. Which is why he looked at the stranger so warily. Yet here was a secret to the so called Barbarian, he would not have looked at him so openly if he was not willing to let his mind be changed. 

“I could line the rafters of my father’s house twice over with the heads of men like you who I have had to kill, sorcerer. Why should I trust you?”

          𝐀𝐍 𝐀𝐒𝐇𝐄𝐍 𝐂𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐍 𝐎𝐅 𝐒𝐈𝐋𝐕𝐄𝐑 emerged from the brush, the leaves sighing and reaching forth for the elf’s touch as if yearning to be spun into the magic weaving around her. She glowed in her own right from it, seen only by the keen eyes of other elves and a would-be powerful human sorcerer. Her eyes fluttered from the bundle of herbs in her hand to the sudden appearance of a figure before her, robed in a cloak red as rubies. She hesitated a moment, caution in her green eyes and furrowed brow, before surmising he was no immediate threat.  “  -- You startled me, stranger ! You must be lost to come this far from the road to Redania . . .  ”

@esoteriks​​ was summoned !
