Traumend 32

I don't understand what she meant, desu.

"I see The Sun...such a wonderful card! Good things in your future. But the card is reversed, child. You must wait for these good things, this happiness. And your happiness is guarded by the Nine of Swords. You will have many long, sleepless nights of worry and uncertainty. Will your happiness ever come? Will your dreams ever come true?

The Three of Cups say they will, my dear. So never lose hope. Your light will come one day."

I sleep just fine, desu! And what does she mean by happiness? I have Souseiseki and the Master and the Doctor and everyone else I care about, desu! Why would I have to wait for it? It's not like...it's not like...

[has opted to pretend she knows what the fortune teller meant and hums happily, instead] We're all going to go home, desu~ And everything will be just fine, desu~ See? I knew we wouldn't be here forever, desu~

[which reminds her~] Doctor...? Um...can I ask you something, desu...?

[takes said delicious dessert with much joy] Thank you, Master~ [tilts her head] Did the Master have that woman tell his fortune, too, desu?

[masteronhigh.livejournal.com]

You're quite welcome. No~ I've not encountered the lady.

[munches on the yummy dessert] She was strange, desu. She thinks she knows what's going to happen...a-and she told me I had to wait for happiness, desu! Why would she tell me that, desu? I-I don't think she really knows, either!

[masteronhigh.livejournal.com]

Oh, I wouldn't hold much store by those sorts of things. They're regulated by luck and confidence tricks.

[dritte-tochter.livejournal.com]

So she lied...? [angar] O-of course she did! S-she doesn't know anything about me, desu!

[masteronhigh.livejournal.com]

Most certainly not. You really oughtn't think on it at all.

[dritte-tochter.livejournal.com]

W-well...I guess so, desu...B-but only because she makes me mad, desu! Okay?

[masteronhigh.livejournal.com]

[pauses, and then bends down beside her] What's wrong, Suiseiseki?

[dritte-tochter.livejournal.com]

Eh...? N-n-nothing, desu! [shies away a little] She was just a stupid fortune teller, desu! She doesn't really know what's going to happen, right? S-s-so my dreams will come true, desu! There wasn't any reason for her to ask if they would, right? So nothing is wrong at all, desu!

Your dreams shall be brought to reality, so long as you do not give up on them.

[dritte-tochter.livejournal.com]

O-of course they will, desu! [determined look get] I'm not gonna let some stupid human tell me they won't, desu! I'll see Souseiseki and everyone again and...and I'll travel with the Master and everyone and everything will turn out just fine, desu! Hahaha! I never doubted that at all, desu! [grins at him] And the Master's dreams will come true, too, right? Just like mine~

[masteronhigh.livejournal.com]

That they shall. I will make certain of it.
