The ERIS Consult

The hardest decision of the day is the first one, and you make it before you are awake enough to defend yourself. Standing at the open wardrobe is a medieval predicament in modern lighting. Too many options, no authority, a body that reads "what do I wear" as a genuine threat and floods the morning with low-grade dread. Every garment has an opinion; none of them is yours. By the time you have decided, the cortisol is already spent. This tag appoints an authority that is not you. Affix it to the inside of the wardrobe door — the exact spot where the deliberation happens — and scan it on waking. ERIS deals a three-card spread: a top, a bottom, a pair of shoes, face-down, then turned. One prescribed silhouette per consultation. Hold up to two cards and consult again, or accept what she gives you. Three consultations per patient, daily. After that the argument with the mirror is simply over. We will be honest about which part is working. The tag is a talisman — a fixed point in a chaotic room — and the ritual of going to the same place every morning is itself the intervention. The scan is the only modern part: it links to a real machine that makes a real decision so your nervous system does not have to. The discord is in the name on purpose. ERIS is the goddess of strife; we have simply given her a wardrobe and a schedule. It will not make you stylish and it will not fix your mornings. It will remove one argument from a day that has too many — which is better than leeches.
