Note: When I Give A Warning About Major Arcana

FUCKING LISTEN TO IT.

So we went to a gas station, right?  Standard gas station.  Nothing special about it.

Then this squawking and chirping and cawing kicks up out of nowhere and I ask what it's about and Tara says, "Some kid is being attacked by birds!"

And then I heard the door open.

"Tara!  Tara, Wheel of Fortune!  Don't go near them!"

But I lost her.  Everything was silence for a while, and then someone who smelled like blood and grime got into the car, along with Tara, and the car peeled out just as I heard the cawing and angry chirping surround us.  Eventually, it faded as we drove.

"TARA.  WHEEL OF FORTUNE MEANS CONVOCATION."  I growled.

"WELL I KNOW THAT NOW."

The kid mumbled something about imaginary things.

"So, where can we take you?  What's your name?"  Tara asked, brushing off my rage.  I suddenly empathize with every headache we are giving Jeanette.

"I want to go home."  He said quietly.  "but I don't remember my name."

Whatever.  If he was in a flock of deathbirds, he's getting the Knight of Swords.

I have a feeling this just made things much more complicated.
