I’d never really felt grounded, I’d always been a little rootless and drifting and confused. Then I went to the Pedestal for my friend’s bachelorette party and something about what I found there, about who I found there made reality blow open and ground me in a way I’ve never experienced Then Thomas made me an offer and while the things he said made no sense, they also made too much sense. Reality rippled around us, and I went willingly where it pulled. Then I met Helena, then I met the other girls that were like me, from the same place I was, and everything settled inside me. But will the men on the other side of the cards be the same? Will they see me? Will I matter to them in a way I haven’t mattered to anyone before?
