I wouldn't worry about it. If it's the same one I saw, she's a phony.

[zombie_pen]

[arches an eyebrow]

Is she now?

[damnfinecoffee]

Yup. First rule of fortune telling; don't try predicting the futures of those already in the know.

[zombie_pen]

Well guru Ianto, what does the future hold?

[punch_rush]

Did you see that fortune teller everyone's talking about?

[zombie_pen]

[nods]

She caught me as I was coming back from the store.

How about you?

[punch_rush]

I haven't seen her at all.

Nothing she's said has come true, right?

[zombie_pen]

[shrugs, unsure how he really felt about the woman's predictions]

Ianto called her a hoax, but I've never come across her before. There may be truth to her words.

[vi952]

Contracts are hard to break even when you're not a Contractor, hmm?

I wouldn't believe anything the fortune teller says. Most of what she has said to me didn't come true. That was quite a few months ago.

[zombie_pen]

This is normal Sam behavior, actually.

Oh? You've seen her before?

[vi952]

Yup. She gave me a fortune through my Chinese zodiac animal around New Years. I remember that because I was hung over that day.

[zombie_pen]

That's a great way to remember things... associating them with hangovers.

[Ryu's just watching Sam, interested.]

[zombie_pen]

[feels Ryu's presence behind him, glancing up from his work]

Hey Ryu. What's up?

[2yoraedragon]

Nothing, really. How come you're rearranging your books?

[zombie_pen]

When I was a Contractor thanks to the Gate, I ended up screwing them all up.

[Yin's standing behind Sam and staring at him with her ever present vacant eyes listening to him mumble]

...Something wrong?

[zombie_pen]

[looks up, shaking his head as he murmurs a "no"]

Nothing is wrong, Yin. I'm just... thinking.

[moonlightelegy]

[She tilts her head slightly in a manner that suggests that she is curious to know but says nothing yet.]

[zombie_pen]

[bites at his lower lip]

The fortune teller's predications... just trying to figure them out.
