032 prophecies

[kungfuwitch]

[Phoebe's voice is soft, distant as she speaks. It's almost as if she's speaking through the haze of a dream]

Visitors from distant land
welcomed with open hand
Dormant cabins live again
God's doors open for mortal kin
Fire extinguished. Harpies cry
Tread softly as the ravens fly

[Her eyes open and she takes a slow breath, lifting her gaze to the roof of the cavern. She smiles slightly, quietly awaiting the responses to the newest prophecy.]

[shrugs_a_lot]

You being able to prophesy and not being sure what they even mean sometimes.

[kungfuwitch]

It is. Though some premonitions are easier than others. I've gotten ones that would show me precisely where something would happen.

[shrugs_a_lot]

Have you got any of those in here? I mean, at Paradisa.

[kungfuwitch]

A few, yes. Whenever I do I let everyone know as soon as I can. It gives us at least some warning before something happens.

[shrugs_a_lot]

[A little nod, not that she can see.]

What was your name again? [He knows she never said it--but yeah.]

[kungfuwitch]

I'm Phoebe, and you are?

[shrugs_a_lot]

I'm Cloud.

[kungfuwitch]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Cloud. Don't worry, I'm not always giving out prophecies or premonitions. [she chuckles] I do have more of a life than that.

[shrugs_a_lot]

Didn't ask... But, it's good to know, I guess.

What else do you? [Might as well ask what people are supposed to do in here.]

[kungfuwitch]

Back home I had an advice column. Ask Phoebe.

[shrugs_a_lot]

What kind of advice did you give? [He could use some! Later.]

[kungfuwitch]

Oh, any. I'd give advice about anything someone wrote to me about. It usually ends up being a lot of love advice, though.

[shrugs_a_lot]

Love advice? [He knows what that is but... he just had to repeat it because what even.]

[kungfuwitch]

Yes. I've helped a great many people find love and keep love. Occasionally I've helped them figure out when it's time to let go of it, too.

[shrugs_a_lot]

Sounds like quite the business... I'll keep it in mind. [OF course he doubts he'll ever ask her about that kind of stuff.]
