[The camera is fixed on a table, upon which sits a neat stack of cards –– black with gold foil in the shape of a sun and moon bisecting each other. The user’s hands pass over the deck and spreads it wide into an arc. Her hands are tanned, with two rings on her ring finger and one on her index finger, and she has so many colourful braided bracelets that some wind around her palm.

Her voice is pleasant, playful, French, a little theatrical:]

Bonsoir, mes amies!

Tonight and tonight only, I will tell your fortune with a single card. Tell me your name, and if you would like to hear about love, money, health or the soul.

If it moves you, you must repay me with an amusing anecdote about yourself.

Ready to play?

[She draws, revealing a knight on a white horse, bearing a single cup. Upside-down.]

The Knight of Cups, in the reversed position. This suggests you are feeling unsure about your path, even though your romantic ideals would love to sweep you towards adventure. You need clarity of purpose, and to be honest with yourself –– if you don’t reflect on what you truly need, you may miss out on deeper connections.

[Teasing:]

But at least you won’t be parted from your coins!

[twin_blade]

Hmm, interesting take.

[ It's actually not bad. Romantic ideas? Uncertain of his path? Him? His sister would be laughing at how accurate it is. What is it he needs, though? It's the last part that puzzles him. He jokes. ]

Pretty sure what I need is another stiff drink. Unless you can shed some insight on that.

[She doesn’t need to ask to know this one landed. It’s a feeling, a confidence in the cards. She replies, pleasantly:]

I’ve been known to pour generously, if that’d help.

[ Vax raises his brow, then smiles. ]

That would help, actually. Aren't you busy pulling cards, though?

[cache_coeur]

I’ve got all night. Meet me at the Maximum?

log?

[twin_blade]

I'll be there.

log!

[cache_coeur]

See you soon.
