video; un: thefool

[ Perhaps if you've already been to the fair, you've spotted one of the booths slowly being draped in blankets and curtains until it looks appropriately gaudy. Reporting to you now live from inside his brocade den is...an off center image of an equally gaudy tiefling. Look, attempts are being made. ]

Hello my dears! I'm sure you're all aware of the carnival that seems to have made itself available to us. Lovely little place. That said, I did notice an sad lack of any sort of fortune tellers, which I think we can all agree is a shame. And so I have gallantly taken it upon myself to fill that unfortunate hole.

[ One hand sweeps out of frame as Molly gives an extravagant bow. You're all welcome. When he straightens up again, he's holding a few tarot cards fanned out, backs to the camera. ]

And, as a special bonus, I'm offering that right here and now, I'll pull a single card for anyone who asks. [ Without him seeming to move at all, two of the cards vanish and the one remaining is now facing the camera. Look closely and you might spot an image of a covered wagon with the word HOME written across the bottom. ]

Fair deal? Only one card, though. If you want more, you'll have to come see me in person~

[ Someone's taken to the idea of advertising quickly. Perhaps also a test to see how well he can cold read through these weird devices? Whomst can say. Look at that sharp-toothed smile, is that the kind of face that would con you? ]

Okay, hit me.

[ heine's not a total skeptic, but he's not a big believer in this kind of thing either. after all, he's only had his tarot read once, and that was unbeknownst to him entirely.

he does turn on his video, because that feels like it'll make things easier. he's seated somewhere in the park, illuminated by the sodium glow of a nearby lamp. ]

[ it's not... far off, honestly, although at this point heine's not sure he can classify them as "secrets" per se. not when he's either told or shown them to like half the people he knows in this place.

still, it's on the nose enough to earn a thoughtful hum. ]
Seems kinda broad. Doesn't everybody have at least one secret they don't want people to know?

[ maybe that's the point of getting your tarot read, though. that it's broad enough to find your own truth in it regardless. ]

What's different if we come visit you?
kampfgeist: (surprise | oh whoa)

Huh. [ heine might be skeptical, but then again, there's probably no harm in it. ] Okay. What kind of information?

[ he'll come on down! ]

Or do I find that out when I get there?
