We've got tickets! Lots of tickets! Don't be shy! (May 8-9)

Well, that's enough to give her an idea of a good fortune. Lonely little girl with no parents? Play with her head and get her attached to the first guy she sees. If Mari gets her way, it'll be some sketchy guy. Maybe it'll be someone in the Carnival, because that could be fun.
She lets go of Dusty's hands and runs her fingers over the crystal ball. "Oh, yes. It's very clear to me now. I see a man in your future. A very important man. He'll make you happier than you've ever felt before."
And while she's saying these words, she's just gently building an emotional framework- feelings of adoration, hero-worship, and a number of other emotions people associate to young girls when it comes to father figures or older brother figures. She's not crude- she's not going to make the girl lust after some random guy... Whether the guy pervs on her in return for her affection and adoration has nothing to do with Mari.
This little emotional bundle will be released as soon as Dusty locks eyes with an older guy. She'll probably be clinging to him in seconds, if this works and it usually does.

She steeples her fingers and gives Dusty her most mysterious look to cover up her own quiet gleefitting at snaring another successful mark.
"Oh, honey, you have no idea." She waves her out with a clink of bangle bracelets. "Now run along now and embrace that good fortune of yours."
