Once he had the panels all cut out and ready to go, Toby sat there, quietly considering them and trying to imagine the runes already on the fabric. Not that that helped the decision process or anything, it was just a good way to keep focus on the task at hand and not get distracted. Having a mental image was pretty helpful too.

It was a while before he decided, and even then he didn't yet start to draw them out onto the fabric, being that he sort of lacked the confidence to go for it just yet. Instead he raised his hand and, still eyeing the fabric, he spoke.

"I'm thinking... Jera. It's more about fertility and harvest and life and stuff but when you use it in runic spells it's all about peace and love and harmony. Might need the galdr chanted to really be beneficial, though. Otherwise it can be interpreted as the sort of positive rune... for positive change and stuff, especially following... hard times, I guess?" It was a risky one, but it was still worth a shot. "Then Gebo, a gift... offering... luck. Another positive one and all, y'know? That's like... good for a message of hope." Toby cleared his throat, and carefully fiddled the fabric on his desk, the fabric he still had his eyes trained on. "I thought about Eihwaz, as it's about life transition and stuff and it would juxtapose Jera and all, but then I figured maybe not, not for this sort of message, not for a message about hope and love and peace. I thought Dagaz would be a better idea, more positive. Happiness. Positive outcome. All that." He looked up. "Those three; Jera, Gebo, and Dagaz... Maybe?"
