Kiritsubo is a fortuneteller who is capable of「seeing」abstract visions of a person's future, bonds, troubles, and nature if she makes the effort to 「look」. According to her words, though, she is not a prophet- her fortune readings are not clear and definite, and are very open to interpretation.

These things that she sees tend to present themselves via symbolism or imagery. She might see them as a black thread binding two people on a path towards dying together, she may see shackles and chains around the ankles of a person feeling trapped in a relationship, or she could see a stain in the body where there is something wrong... things like this.

If you would be open to Kiritsubo「seeing」something related to your character's condition/fate OR upcoming plans you have for your character in-game, please let me know and give me as many fun details as you like! 🎔

Always feel free to reach out if you want to plot or thread something related to this! Otherwise, I'll just use it for general flavor in threads. Thanks!

What Fortune Can Kiritsubo See?: Throughout this entire thread, Charlie's history with his family will be at the top of his mind. He and his two older brothers were quite close despite how often they fought. The others had quick tempers, and he'd often provoke them for fun - a habit he never grew out of. Imagery associated with his childhood includes fruit-jam cookies, a child's crutch, a pair of boys completing their morning routine in a dingy mirror, pillows on a raw wooden floor, and playing in dirty streets.

This history stopped abruptly one night when he and his brothers were gunned down by a rival mafia group. Charlie, already undead, was the only survivor. The punishment room made him relive that night from the moment he was shot until he watched his last brother die in the hospital, laid next to the one already covered and tagged. Imagery associated with the tragedy includes the ratratrat of machine guns (see what I did there?), broken dinnerware on the plush carpet of a fancy restaurant, bloodied white dress shirts, scattered poker cards, and, of course, two bodies on gurneys.

I am sure there will be other anecdotes that come up in metatext as the threads continue - feel free to pull from those too!
