"What's 'limitations' exactly?"

Permalink

"All the things that prevent the problem from being easily solvable, or anything that doesn't let you act as you would want to."

Permalink

"… So there's something that's going to make the disaster harder to deal with than probably expected? I mean, unless it's just talking about generally being awkward, having a large catastrophe near us."

Permalink

"Side effects of the catastrophe, perhaps? Or maybe the catastrophe is a side effect of something else?"

Permalink

"Isn't it already meant to be a side effect of us not capturing the cards? The main catastrophe, I mean."

Permalink

"Well, then maybe that's what the Card is telling us?"

Permalink

"But then I'd expect the catastrophe to be… an expected side effect?"

Permalink

Shrug.

Last card?

The outcome, the Flower: results, rewards, reaching your goal.

Permalink

"… I think I'm confused by this one."

Permalink

"...we'll save the world, I guess?"

Permalink

"I – it – yeah? I was more thinking 'how is the problem due to us reaching our goal', since… it's because we didn't do it properly in time?"

Permalink

"That card doesn't necessarily say something about what the problem is due to, it just says something relevant to that."

Permalink

Shrug. "So, it doesn't seem like that told us, uh, much if anything about the catastrophe, but it unfortunately confirmed we probably won't be fast enough to get everything?"

Permalink

"Yeah," he sighs. "But hey, we'll succeed, so that's cool."

Permalink

"I was reasonably confident we'd succeed anyway. Since if we didn't, horrible catastrophe probably takes out the world."

Permalink

"Well yeah but it was a possibility," he shrugs. "Anyway, now how about the Randi Prize?"

Permalink

"Sure? Is it, like, a form to fill out, or…?"

Permalink

"No, you gotta publish a YouTube video performing whatever supernatural feat you claim you can perform, and then when it gets famous enough you submit it to the association. Used to be way harder but then no one wanted to apply."

Permalink

"… Do we have to claim to think it's supernatural on the video?"

Permalink

"Well, yeah, but I mean, in our case we'll be literally showing magic, so."

Permalink

"Right."

He doesn't look super happy about this.

Permalink

"What?"

Permalink

"… Nothing," he says. "Just. You know, claiming magic on a video we're trying to get famous."
