Mnemonic comic for 交

jiāo = ji + ao1: to hand over / to deliver / to pay (money) / to turn over / to make friends / to intersect (lines) / variant of 跤[jiao1]

Mnemonic symbol: To me the character (交) looks like a face: a beret (亠) on the top, a pair of old tired eyes (八), and (乂) could be the nose and mouth. For this person, an old guy with a beret, I choose Linus Pauling, a famous scientist with a beret.

Father Time (父) commands Linus Pauling (交) to hand over (交) his beret (亠) to him in front of the aorta (ao1), but Joan of Arc (ji) comes to his rescue.
