[Expecting] Space Travel can be Terminal (Day 0 - LM)

[Yoritomo Ochiba]

"Eep. It's no trick, I promise!" Kanna stresses the words sincerely, not wanting to upset Ochiba.

"It's not all bad," at least it wasn't the Tower, and now she hopes the Tower card didn't show up next, "because there's always a way forward and things can always change for the better!" Kanna is fully certain of this.

"But yes, hm, the Spiderweb represents feeling trapped, or bad habits," she doesn't elaborate too much on that, since the Mantis could find it personal. "I suppose that could be why you're here? To change things up and try something new to escape? We can turn the next card and see."

She continues peering at Kanna suspiciously for a few moments longer before letting out the breath she was holding.

“Just means I have to be careful is all. Keep my eyes out. Too easy to think it would be all clean.”

With some trepidation she flips the next card.

It depicts a stylised view of the old empire of Rokugan and its borders. The world.
“Oh shit, that’s a good one. Okay, whew, was getting worried there.”

"That's a good one, yes," Kanna releases a breath she didn't know she had been holding, as she had been worried for a teeny-tiny second.

"The World shows future fulfillment. Completion. Maybe some great achievement in store for you! Even if you have been feeling stuck where you are, you will see all your effort pay off." She smiles happily. "It could also potentially mean a major milestone in your life; like marriage or the birth of a child!"

"It also shows that you're someone who gives back to the community - making the world a better place. Or the galaxy since we're no longer bound to Rokugan alone."

“Giving back? Marriage?” Ochiba’s face rarely looks so blank.

“Nah, the first part sounds right. I got big things coming my way if I can make it through the here and now. Yeah, not surprising but good to see it so clearly.”

Clearly mollified she sits back, one hand unconsciously resting on a holstered pistol
“Okay, yeah. That was good. You’re a powerful diviner Tamori-san, no mistake. You’d always be welcome on one of my ships with that skill.”

"Hey, you never know what might happen while on a beach-world. Beachy romances or something?" she chuckles and picks up the cards to return them to the deck.

And remains oblivious to any hands near weapons.

"Thank you for the standing welcome to your ships. Is that only for yacht-ships, or space-ships too?" the question is asked teasingly.

“Oh I was thinking on having some fun, because you’re right. Beaches, boobs, big crab dudes with insane pecs, Crab women… also often with insane pecs. I mean, fun is fun. But romance?”

Cutting hand motion
“Can’t imagine. I mean, I’m a catch, I know it. But sometimes that’s hard to communicate to folks. And I dunno there’s someone out there I’d care about enough to share with. I imagine someone like you, you’re families already got some engagement lined up?”

Firmly
“Yacht or spaceship, if you can read the omens you’re welcome. Although you’d like the yacht more, my usual home is pretty rough and tumble, no space for pets either.”

Kanna mostly latched onto the last thing Ochiba said.

"No pets? None whatsoever? But... doesn't that get lonely? Animals fill up so much in our lives for the better!"

"Uhhh." Ochiba blinks, then slowly considers this. "It can be? I guess? But like, it's a small ship with lots of crew, definitely not that lonely. But I guess if we had animals that would be cool...but I have to oversee everything so that would just be more work for me."

Although all the hair in the vents, was it worth the sacrifice.
"I'm used to being on my own anyway, always have been. It's easier you know." She pats her bag. "Means I travel light, always flexible, don't have to answer to anyone else."

"Maybe you get caught in the web of always being on your own?" she comments kindly, reminding Ochiba about the card for her present. "If you feel alone, I will be your friend! Maybe then you won't be so alone anymore?"

This offer Kanna makes completely sincerely with no ties attached.

That gets a long suspicious look, a very looong look.
"Suppose maybe I'll think on that. You seem alright, got a good dog and all."

If there was one thing Ochiba was not familiar with it was cultured folk volunteering to spend time around her.
"Certainly feel free to call on me planetside and such. Always help to have one friendly face already locked in."

A few moments later an announcement for a departing shuttles chimes over the loudspeakers.
"Speaking of, reckon that's us."
