Tarot cards for Gordon Korman characters (Iām so glad I have tarot cards of my own I can use as reference) SPOILERS (NOT DONE!!)
mostly for @minor-annoyance because they read everything here š§āāļø
Restart:
Chase Ambrose - Two Of Swords, meaning the person is indecisive and canāt choose which path they want to take (basically him and past Chase/the Entity)
Brendan Espinoza - The Star (XVII), this card means hope and serenity, Brendan actually represents forgiveness in Restart because he was the first character to forgive Chase and actually have hope that what Aaron and Bear framed Chase of hurting Joel was a lie. The reverse means despair and crushed dreams, Brendan was in despair when Chase got kicked out of the video club due to what he was framed with and how his dreams of redemption for him were crushed. (Or maybe Iām just way too crazy and Iām looking way too into this because I ship them,,,,,)
Shoshanna Weber - Judgment (XX), the card means forgiveness and change of perspective, and when reversed it means self-loathing and failure. This fits her because remember how she hated herself for trusting Chase and bringing back Joel just for her to fail and him to get hurt again even if it was by accident?
Aaron Hakimian - Knight Of Wands
Bear Bratsky - Ten Of Swords
Unplugged:
Jett Baranov - The Hermit (IX), this card means solitude and leaving responsibility behind to focus inward. Also reversed it means recklessness, avoidance, loneliness, and rejection. THOSE ARE PERFECT FOR JETT BECAUSE OF HIS NEGLECTFUL RICH FATHER, YAY!
Tyrell Karrigan - ???
Grace Atwater - ???
Brooklynne Feldman - ???
The Fort:
Evan Donnelly - The Hanged Man (XII), the reason I chose this is because in the book, he blames himself for making Jaeger follow them into their secret fort because heās brothers with Luke. He blames himself for everything. The card also means sacrifice, by blaming himself, heās sacrificing himself so that the others donāt feel guilt.
Ricky Molina - The Fool (Ć), meaning a person who thinks their future will be bright, also means innocence.
CJ Sciutto (traumatized kid, who pretends his step-fatherās bruises are just a thing he does to himself with his daredevil tricks) - Eight Of Swords
Jason Brax and Janelle Jaworski - The Lovers (VI), what can I say, theyāre literally canon from the start of the book, sheās his freaking girlfriend. No arguments here.
Mitchell Worth (kid with OCD) - ???
Luke Donnelly (big brother of Evan) - ???
Marcus Sciutto - Death (XIII), abusive step father towards CJ, whatās worse than death. Upright means transition and change. In the book, Marcus has two sides, one where heās happy, kind, optimistic, loving, and sweet. When he gets agitated, he abuses CJ and his mother, he has remorse but he never really mends the wounds and never talks about it. Reversed means stubbornness and stagnation, like said, Marcus never heals the wounds, only just says a simple sorry, traumatizing CJ, also he uses stupid excuses like āIām your step-father, you love me!ā Like wtf.
Jaeger Devlin - The Devil (XV), he was a toxic influence towards Luke and threatened the group (Evan, Ricky, CJ, Jason, and Mitchell) to give him the money they got from selling silverware. GREED AND VIOLENCE, RIGHT THERE. Reversed basically means release and moving on, Jaeger actually goes to jail at the end of the book sooooo yeah.
WhatsHisFace:
Cooper Vega - ???
Roddy Northrop (literally a 16th century 12 year old ghost whoās stuck in Cooperās phone) - ???
Linked:Ā
Lincoln Rowley - Strength (VIII), Iāll explain later, me too lazy š§āāļø
Jordie Duros (used to be boyfriend and girlfriend with Pamela, until she became toxic and putting racist symbols around school, he still loves her but he hates that he loves her because sheās evil and bad, and he tried to forgive her for breaking up with him but that was before he realized it was her who put the symbols around school) - Two Of Cups, upright and reversed is perfect for him istg
Pamela Bynes (racist villain, ough) - ???
