Concessions manager, my old boss, is trying to talk me up into putting half my paycheck into the employee betting pool again. Wish he'd lay off, after I told him not interested the first time

I sometimes look at the horoscopes, but... I can't tell which one to follow.

I don't think luck is something that is real. If something happens -- bad or good -- it just does. Maybe for a reason, but not because of luck.

[madeinoblivion]

Which one do you think is the most like you?

Not at all, you don't believe in it? I might say not at all, except that I know Jinx is...well, her powers are that she's ...sort of a jinx.

[linkings]

I don't know. It's not just something you can pick, is it?

Well, luck might effect some things, but it shouldn't be what others rely on all the time. It's... better if people rely on themselves. Almost more rewarding.

[madeinoblivion]

Of course it's more rewarding. Anybody can be lucky. It's not something you have to work at.

Do you know when you were born, Namine?

There's a reason behind every superstition, you know.

So what's the reason behind 11/11/11?

[believesbeyond]

You need to know about the number's magical properties! Have you been taught anything about them?

Re: voice;

[madeinoblivion]

Nope! What's it mean?

Hey, what's wrong with some healthy gambling?

Re: voice;

[madeinoblivion]

Well. Half my paycheck is either winning big or losing big. I don't have that much safety munny to go by.

voice;

[tinderfoot]

Yeah, but if you win you'll get more money!

Re: voice;

[madeinoblivion]

Well, that's... true, but-

I don't know. A long time ago, I won big, and Edgeworth told me that gambling is dirty munny, when I tried giving some of it to the newcomer fund.

People don't like thinking that things just happen.

Re: voice;

[madeinoblivion]

Because people like reasons?

voice;

[20_mentholkools]

Reasons. [He repeats it in agreement.] And they like thinking they're important enough to something out there. The universe. God.

Re: voice;

[madeinoblivion]

Oh...

Well I already know how I'm important to the universe.

[It was the sports comment that grabbed his attention. With a small grunt first he spoke calmly but flatly]

I don't understand the socks thing myself. One day in training and I want to change them as soon as possible. [he's so very sure that sports shoes make your feet sweet badly... he kind of hates them greatly]

Re: [voice]

[madeinoblivion]

...Well, I don't know if it counts if you win but you don't get any field time.

When are they going to start putting you in?
