[ 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? ]

[mollymocks]

You could be. These things are always up to interpretation.

[ Molly doesn't sound particularly bothered by it as the card vanishes back into the deck. ]

It's all in what you personally take away from it, really.

[abit_ofboth]

So I could essentially make any card mean anything?

[He’s teasing now, of course. Loki does believe in these things, but he also enjoys having his fun.]

True enough, I suppose I simply don’t know what the Norns are trying to say with that one.

[mollymocks]

If you like.

[ Who is Molly to deny any sort of insight? Especially when he's doing it for free.

Speaking of. ]

Well if it's clarification you're looking for, you know how to find me.

[abit_ofboth]

Supposing I would like some clarification, when are you free?

And what are you charging?

[Loki knows there’s no money here, but that doesn’t mean Molly won’t want something in return.]

[mollymocks]

[ He just smiles. So innocent. ]

Information is all I'm asking. Anything anyone happens to find interesting enough to share.

[abit_ofboth]

Okay then, ask your questions and if they are things I can or am willing to answer, I would like to meet you for an exchange. Would that work for you?

[mollymocks]

Oh no, dear, I have no questions. This is all about what you choose to tell me. But do feel free to come by whenever you like.

[abit_ofboth]

And how would I know if what I deemed worthy to share was worth what I want in exchange? Or is not knowing part of the fun?

[mollymocks]

Well that's all up to you, isn't it?

[ So yes, it's all part of the game. ]

You've overthinking this, dearest.

[abit_ofboth]

Dearest?

[The only person to ever refer to him that way before in his entire life was his mother. It feels odd hearing it from someone else.]

But it is not the first time I have been accused of such things. If you do no care when I stop by, I will sometime, some place and perhaps you can give me a full reading. It should be entertaining at least.

[mollymocks]

Of course, whenever you like. You know how to find me, hm?

[abit_ofboth]

I expect I could contact you on your device as we are conversing now to make plans. Unless you have an alternate way you would prefer?

[mollymocks]

No, this will do nicely. I'm at your command, dear.
