I think I got it. Just needs lots of repetition practice.

#cardistry practice doing this flourish called LAVA using the Monarchs playing card deck from Theory 11. I finally finished learning the sequence today so it's nowhere near as smooth as I'd like it to be.

In #cardistry, the deck you use to practice juggling card packets is sometimes referred to as a poop deck, as it picks up a lot of grime from practice and use.

Mine just happens to coincidentally be naval themed.

Birthday day starts with the gym. I usually work out at home but the gym has more equipment to use so I was excited to use them.

Also cat pic of my sister's cat, Churro.

It's been hundreds of years since the two have seen each other in #LeagueofLegends lore. Kayle's name has faded into legend, known only as "The Protector" and Morgana as "The Fallen." The people of Valoran never see them, but in dance and song, the twins are "Still Here."

The story of Kayle and Morgana is one where their mother's legacy and their individual ideals of Justice tear apart the two twins who deep down love each other.

The "Still Here" cinematic and the performance at Worlds depicts the last time the two sisters worked together to fight a common enemy.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
Morgana, on the other hand, embraces humanity and although she is hated for disavowing Demacia's laws and traditions, she believes the outcasts deserve second chances and rise above their sins. She represents restorative and moral justice. She hates her heritage for what it's done to their family.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
Kayle represents a rigid and lawful justice focused on protecting the weak by punishing the unjust. She represents punitive and absolute justice.

She embraces her heritage and feels connected to her mother's legacy in this way but sees the repeated failings of mortals, growing disappointed.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
But more about the characters themselves. These sisters are twins who were born to a human that became a host to an otherworldly presence representing an ideal that the sisters struggle to uphold. It's this state of their family and their heritage to this ideal that is the center of their conflict.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
The sisters stand together with the dancers enhancing the sisters' movements. Shout out to these dancers, btw.

And that's generally everything I love about the performance and how it ties into the lore of #LeagueofLegends.

The music crescendos as Aatrox slams his sword down, creating this spectacle of fire. Tiffany stands up as the singers continue their song.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
Aatrox, a massive demon lands behind her. The two sisters were depicted fighting Aatrox in the Still Here cinematic from earlier this year. Tiffany/Morgana is off to the side, allowing Mars/Kayle in center stage, but also playing to the story beat in the cinematic where Morgana was sidelined.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
The next close shot shows Mars Atlas from Forts wearing tight white battle armor-like clothing. She is portraying Kayle, Morgana's sister and another incarnation of the Aspect of Justice in #LeagueofLegends.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
The background changes to a scorched battlefield, to a battle in progress, which sets up the next story beat of the performance as Tiffany moves to the side during her verse. Another figure in white has taken center back stage as the song moves to the second pre-chorus.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
Tiffany/Morgana sheds the white cloak completely as they retract off stage. She's now in her full Morgana-inspired costume.

Morgana, in #LeagueOfLegends, bound her angelic wings and chose to embrace her humanity instead. She rejects laws and tradition, believes in second chances for outcasts.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
The next stage shot we get; we see ethereal purple chains trailing up her cloth angel wings and attaching themselves to the massive curtains to her sides. Tiffany/Morgana moves to tear them down with the chains as the music swells.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
The purple light increases in vibrancy as Tiffany/Morgana summons her magic. She takes down her hood as she begins shedding her angelic (Aspect of Justice) heritage.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
Death is after her and she stands alone, but not weak, painted in white light. It fades to dark as she's painted in purple light, Morgana's default color in the game.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
Wolf moves to the other side before moving to the middle and he lunges at the audience as indicated by his glowing eyes. For the first time, we see the full picture of Morgana's "wings."
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
A white curtain lights up, revealing a shadow that takes the form of Wolf, the aggressive and hungry side of Kindred - the manifestation of death. You can see the curtain is attached to Tiffany by her "wings." Instead, we learn they're attached to death.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
This close up reveals that she's wearing a purple wig. Her angel wings and purple hair evokes the character, Morgana. Morgana is an incarnation of the Aspect of Justice, beings in #LeagueofLegends who live beyond the physical and spiritual realms and have mortal hosts in the world.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
Kindred's mask fades away and the light brightens up on Tiffany, revealing white cloths attached her robes, evoking angel wings.
November 26, 2024 at 8:32 PM
The number opens with Tiffany Aris drabbed in white with the mask of Kindred hanging over her. She's wearing a purple wig, a hint of which #LeagueOfLegends character she's portraying.

Kindred is a manifestation of literal death. When they are on the hunt, death hangs over you.

This is a #LARP game called Mortal Affairs Review Board where you play Greek Gods.

"Athena is determined to accomplish more than usual with her limited time. Will the other deities help? Will they cause trouble? Probably both."
