( STOP HE CAN'T ACTUALLY CURSE THINGS!!! but if anything bad happens to happen after someone gets their hands on a cursed bookmark that ain't his problem that's just confirmation bias at work.
Very good — his spread ends up a mixture of clubs and diamonds, which all generally have pretty positive connotations: Nine of Clubs, Five of Diamonds, Ten of Clubs, Seven of Diamonds. )
...What a lucky future you have - it does seem like you have nothing at all to worry aBOUT. Well, save perhaps some arguMENTS... ( He taps the last card, but we'll get to that in a second. He'll move his finger back to the first card, pushing it forward slightly. ) But let's start at the beginning, shall WE?
The first card chosen always represents the PAST. It's the basis on which we form our present and future conclusions ON, both in fortunetelling and in LIFE. ( doesn't matter if this is the same spiel he's heard a hundred times before he's gonna hear it again, natsume is a fan of theatrics. ) The nine of clubs represents achieveMENT, plain and simPLE. It's easy to divine that thanks to your successes in years past that things will continue smoothly for you in the coming MONTHS.
( So maybe Kouji was right to scoff at the idea they wouldn't win, who knew. And, speaking of the present, Natsume walks his fingers over to the second card. )
The five of diamonds cements this quite WELL, signifying happiness and sucCESS. If there's anything you'd like to start UP, now is the best time to do so: you'll find whatever obstacles you face easily surmountABLE. Whether that be a schoolwide proJECT, a new training plan for you TEAM, a club or other after-school activiTY... A revoluTION, if that's how you'd like your youth to play OUT. ( Natsume's gaze strays to some students with bruises when he mentions revolution, but he flicks it back to the cards soon after. ) You'll certainly win whatever battles you choose to FIGHT.
( Third card now, his pinky resting on the fourth - they're technically paired, both being for the future, so he'll read them at the same time. )
It might be good to stay cautious, howeVER. While the ten of clubs represents success particularly in business venTURES, the seven of diamonds spells out financial trouBLE. I'd advise on staking any worth in getting new supplies for your CLUB, as you might find yourself caught between bettering equipment or paying for damaGES. That being SAID, seeing as the suit is diaMONDS, whatever conundrum you find yourself it should be resolved happily - so perhaps it's worth trying to push for something a little extra if you feel you need IT.
( ...Alrighty then! He'll lean back in his seat, reading more or less through. )
SuccintLY, as I'm aware boys our age have dwindling attention spans: your future looks BRIGHT. I'm lead to believe your team will win without much trouble this YEAR, though club funding may be TIGHT, and you might have to push a little to get what you'd LIKE... but you should be able to achieve whatever it is you set your mind TO. And if you decide to take this as a glance into anything more personal battle-WISE... ( ... ) I think things will work out in your faVOR, Seki-kun. Good for you - not everyone has been looked upon so kindly by fate this YEAR.
