August was quiet yesterday, he moped, but not much else. I kept the salt ring around my bed last night, just in case.
Today I drew the Eight of Wands reversed. August was crawling along the ceiling in my office and twisting his head around backward to look at me when I told him what it was.
āI want to look like one of those really terrifying ghosts in horror flicks,ā he said.
āWell, the tweed and jaunty British accent kind of ruin the effect.ā
āHuh, I wonder if I could make myself look scarier. Like with decayed flesh and stuff.ā He floated down from the ceiling and stood upright.
āHow will looking scary help you find Evelyn?ā
āNever mind that. What does my card today mean?ā
āNot sure, inspiration and creativityā¦. news, change, action⦠but reversed.ā
āI get it.ā He floated back up to the ceiling, ādo you think we could come up with a really scary song for me to sing while Iām up here?ā I turned back to my work.
āNo.ā
