[OPEN] *draws a tarot card* oh sh—

[silentabyss]

who: Noah & You
what: Tarot readings~
when: Post-Disney fieldtrip, so 02/12 and on
where: Dorm Common Room
warnings: I'm on my pagan bullshit again it's fine

[If you venture into the dorm common room at any point after the fieldtrip ends, you will find Noah sitting in the middle of the floor with a deck of tarot cards, Trying His Best. He only recently acquired these cards (they were scattered about his room, see) and he hasn't had too much time to play with them.

Obviously, the correct thing to do is to play with them now. Step right up and get a very amateurish tarot reading free of charge! He has a book open in his lap about how to do this, including multiple spreads that he can use. If he spots you while he's nose-deep in studying, he'll wave you over with a hand and ask if he can read your fortune — you just have to tell him what you're interested in knowing. Past, present, future? Love? Interpersonal relationships of a non-romantic nature? Just ask!

As a disclaimer, Noah is not responsible for any harm that comes to you if he divines your future and it turns out really badly. That is not his fault. Your fate was written in the stars, after all.]

It's okay. I think it's a lot better than most of the things that usually happen to be fated with me.

[She answers it rather calmly without a shred of hesitation, not particularly bothered by it in the slightest.]

Besides, it's not set in stone.

[silentabyss]

That's... that sounds kind of sad when you put it like that.

[Arguments kind of scare Noah, personally, he really doesn't like them — especially not if they happen between friends. If that's something that's considerably nicer to Rika, he wonders just what she's gone through.]

And... yeah, stuff like that can be avoided. Especially since you know it's coming. I think, anyway...

[miirai]

Mii. Does it?

[She questions innocently with a kind, curious smile.]

And I'd like to hope so... but I suppose we'll see.

[silentabyss]

...yeah. It does. I won't ask what you went through since it's probably personal, but an argument being better than "what usually happens"... I don't know. It just sounds really bad. Arguments make me anxious, personally.

[miirai]

It's not really a secret. And it isn't as if it's relevant to anyone here, so I don't mind sharing. Although it's not a very good story.

[Her voice drops into something much deeper than how she usually sounds, something a tad more serious.]

Sometimes you have to argue in order to understand each other. Well. Not that I'm saying it's always a good thing.

[silentabyss]

[Sometimes you have to argue in order to understand each other... That's true, Noah supposes, and he thinks maybe his argument with Clamor back in May might've helped with that a little bit.

Sigh.]

You're definitely more mature than me for being younger. [Sitcom laugh track.mp4] I would've never thought about it that way.

[miirai]

It took me a long time to learn, truthfully.

[She smiles, something a little bitter.]
