“A robed figure stood before a coin, a cup, a sword, a wand---all of the symbols of all the tarot suits. An infinity symbol floated above his head; one arm was lifted in a posture of power. Yes, thought Adam. Understanding prickled and then evaded him.

The Magician.”

I put the card in my back pocket, horizontally, so it wouldn't fall out this time.

"We're all capable of it sometimes," she yelled behind me.”
