[accidental second level - here is a thoughtful looking Jenos, who's also sort of zoned out, and may or may not have encountered a certain fortune teller on an early morning walk]

The more you yourself will improve... [she pauses for a moment, before she ends up sort of looking like her icon] Brother...

Who? [Asch is worried-- but she acts tough for you, Jenos. :<]

[hazardwireseven]

Hmn? You mean Belga and Nizer? [>'X she appreciates it, Asch!]

[childoflorelei]

[nods!]

[hazardwireseven]

They're my partners, back home~ Belga was the sort of typical straight-laced guy, and Nizer was semi-serious, but knew how to have fun too~ They're great guys!

[childoflorelei]

Oh... What's supposed to be affecting you anyway?

[hazardwireseven]

Oh, just some fortune telling mumbo jumbo I got told to me, while I was out on a walk. Nothing big~

[childoflorelei]

Oh. [she blinks]

They're reading the Score here?

[hazardwireseven]

The Score? [confused look!] What's that?

[childoflorelei]

It's... the fortune for Auldurant.

[hazardwireseven]

A fortune for a place? Never heard of that before. Well, I guess if you want to look at it that way, sort of? Though most of the time this stuff is highly inaccurate anyway, which is why I said 'mumbo jumbo'.

[childoflorelei]

[gets oddly quiet about that]

Oh.

[hazardwireseven]

... Asch? Is something wrong? [cue worried Jenos!]

[childoflorelei]

Tch, no. [Asch? Admit problems? Yeah right.]

It's just a stupid fortune.

[hazardwireseven]

[she knows your game, Asch!]

Well, fortunes work differently everywhere, y'know? I mean, some people follow them like a religion - and sometimes they really do work well, for them. I just haven't had any such luck! [a little laughter] The triple sevens failed me, there.

[childoflorelei]

I hate them.

If the Score didn't exist...

1/2

[soft smile - big sister mode is a go~]

What's back there is back there, and what's here is here. There's no use in worrying, or being so angry at, something you can't change right now. Your Score isn't here, right?
