古今

古 = 十 + 口 : Mnemonic symbol: at least on German maps, this character actually resembles a cloister.

Oh no! Gitta Giraffe (gu) found that the golden cross (十) broke off of the cloister (古) in the space station's living room (Ø3)! She skewers a mandarin (口) on top of the cloister so that she can skewer the broken off cross back on to fix it.

今 = 亽 + ㇇ : A rip off calendar showing today's date: 今

今 = 亽 + ㇇ : Joan of Arc has changed into half-duck half-human being and lives in a tipi in front of the encampment. With her beak, she shows a rip off calender with the date of Armageddon: today.
