Another Joker?

[fools-bluff.livejournal.com]

Feste, she seems to have materialized out of thin air. A female Joker, and one who seems to shuffle into the deck readily: she knows the roles and the players, perhaps better than they know one another.

What the Jokers would know, since only they're aware of where they come from?

Felicity was once a serving girl in Spade Castle, but she left after witnessing one too many royal temper tantrums, and hearing one too many off-hand comments that unnerved her. She spent a few months searching her soul, and eventually realized that really, she couldn't stand to be away from the Deck. She returned only recently, to take up the Joker's mantle. There are still moments where the docile serving girl can be seen--and even when fully in her role, this is the quietest wildcard around.

(Yes, I know I made two in one night. I may wait for the weekend to SWS her an intro, might tag around others' posts first.)

wait, now we have three jokers...

Which I am totally cool with, actually.
So long as everyone else is.

[fools-bluff.livejournal.com]

Papabear David gave me the okay on it.

[7waystobetray.livejournal.com]

goodgood.

and she looks fabulous.
Muse agrees - but then, Delilah has loads of love for all the jokers.

[fools-bluff.livejournal.com]

I saw the base set on hollow-art, and I just fell head over feet for her. And the servant backstory was either going to her or a Two someday.

[7waystobetray.livejournal.com]

dude, I did that with the PB for Delilah, here! and yes, I loves your PB. they jokers are all fabulously colorful...

...and so is Delilah. maybe that's why she likes them so much. :D

[fools-bluff.livejournal.com]

Hee, and Feste needs people to like her. Harder to convince people you're a Joker if they're dead-set against you.

[7waystobetray.livejournal.com]

Well, Feste can expect a personal invitation to the counter-challenge that I should have posted already and will have to backdate

I am ridiculously swamped with tags, there are people whose posts I should tag into in the comm, and i just... can't. I can do this - this is a real conversation. but my headspace is full of tags already.

Doesn't help that this isn't the only game I'm in. close to half of my swamped-ness comes from the other one...

and I'm finding it hard to keep track of people and pups. hopefully everyone will get added to the taken cards and contact list soon...

[fools-bluff.livejournal.com]

Dear, don't worry too hard about tagging Itzhak and Feste--when the challenge comes up, Isadore's the one of my pups who'll matter most to you.

[7waystobetray.livejournal.com]

I'm trying not to worry. I figure I will eventually make posts with my others, and then people who haven't met Penny/Argine can tag into those...

I'm not as worried about Delilah, as I plan her post to be gathering-style, with threadhoppings. Mostly Spades, but a few others should show. Rachel and the Jokers at the very least, as they're getting invitations.

[fools-bluff.livejournal.com]

I should ask, would Penny have a particular relationship with her grouchy old Nine, who's been a member of the deck for around fifty-sixty years now?

/ignore the journal...

[clevernorthwind.livejournal.com]

um... she'll probably be fond of him, idk?

Re: /ignore the journal...

[fools-bluff.livejournal.com]

Mkay. She'd be another one welcome to call him Itchy.

[7waystobetray.livejournal.com]

dunno that she would, though. she may call him by his real name.

[fools-bluff.livejournal.com]

Dr. Itzhak Repoman Operman?

[ladyoftheclubs.livejournal.com]

YES, I thought I recognized the images... I mean, he's Giles and Uther, too, but not like that.

um. probably just Itzhak? Unless he tells her to call him something else. Penny is... very conscious of being a Lower Number. At the edge of the low Numbers. It's where she likes to be, but it sometimes makes her a little timid. We'll have to thread them at some point...

[fools-bluff.livejournal.com]

When it suits you.

[justnotverygood.livejournal.com]

Hellos *waves* Woo for new joker, and also calling David papabear because Anastasia totally does that xD

[fools-bluff.livejournal.com]

I used to have a Papawolf on another site--I was his beloved chatbaby.

[justnotverygood.livejournal.com]

Awww!

[acethatmatters.livejournal.com]

Sooo...

I've alluded to it here and there but...

...Apparently before he finally started sleeping with Athena, Julien was in the time-honored habit of sleeping with the serving girls when he felt the need. And Julien being Julien, it very very unlikely any of them ever turned him down (whether they wanted to or not).

Anyway. Figured I'd mention it, in case it was something you wanted to incorporate into her past?

[fools-bluff.livejournal.com]

He might have been one of the reasons she left--him and the Queen's and King's temper tantrums and Victor's cannibalism...yes, it will be something to play off.

And for you, she has a distinctive birthmark on her left shoulder, shaped vaguely like a dolphin cresting.

[acethatmatters.livejournal.com]

Assuming Julien actually paid attention, he may notice it?

[Okay, he probably pays more attention than he lets on to the serving folk, even if they are supposedly beneath his notice. Otherwise, what a fantastic place to put an assassin for him.]

:)

[fools-bluff.livejournal.com]

He may notice it; that's why I mentioned it. The little blonde wisp named Felicia, she grew up and came back. This is where Jokers come from--at least, this one.

[acethatmatters.livejournal.com]

Now he just has to see it. :)
