Oh Heavens, what a simply adorable scene! I can scarcely remember the times before I held a star globe. Thank you for sharing these memories.

Oh, what was that about Astro being fun? The best and most fun healer, even? With the sexiest job mentor, in fact?

You know, I have heard that the Astrologian "job quests" are quite endearing!

Perfect! Well, you may wish to clear your calendar, this is going to be a long list.

I would be the first to admit that I have been lapse in my faith of late, perhaps you would be kind enough to lend an ear as I recount my sins? :)

Ah, is that a sense of longing I am seeing dear Stephanivien? Take heart, I am sure they will come back to Ishgard soon!

The cards tell me many things Ser Greystone, but they do not whisper such specifics to my particularly sensitive ears!

Some seem to think they were referring to the Emperor Varis, but I am hoping that was incorrect. I am looking for someone much more fun!

...Perhaps he has come to learn the ways of Sharlayan astrology?

Quite so! Perhaps we shall be blessed with a visit sometime soon, then!

Oh... I have now seen the Lord Speaker's announcement. I do believe I understand that the cards were not speaking of such joyous tidings...

Such readings can incite fear in us, it is true, but you should never be scared of the messages the skies bring to us! I wonder what delightful events are to transpire...

Perhaps it simply means that Quimperain has decided to invest in a pair of handcuffs... ah, yes! That must be it!

(( OH. whoops. Janne might have more braincells than his mun, I'm afraid...))

Your word holds so much weight in this city, Lord Aymeric! You need not rewrite doctrine to reassure the people that our salacious posts and goings-on shall not see ourselves damned, do you not agree?

[ took me a moment to realise that wasn't IC and Aymeric wasn't saying that under his breath 😭 ]

Oh, but our Fury shares her heaven of ice with Menphina! Such a thing would suggest to me that she is grown accustomed to the antics of lovers - especially so if she is always watching!

Perhaps it is past time our scripture should be reviewed, hm?

"Just one!"

He spreads out the cards in a fan in front of the other man, and shoots him a mischievous smile.

"If you could please choose three cards - and keep them face down, it isn't quite as dramatic if you don't!"

"Truly? Then I should be very glad to pop that particular cherry, Mister Garlond!"

He begins to shuffle his deck of cards, with an enthusiastic smile upon his face.
