It sounded like there was little to no scientific merit to this game, but that it had a certain cultural significance perhaps. Fortune Telling, at least in what little he'd read about the Oracles and Prophets of human society, were generalists. They made broad enough statements to facilitate multiple outcomes that could be seen as their prediction 'coming true.' Did Tarot work in the same way? It was essentially revisionist history, but the game sounded like a fun one to toy with. “Would gladly have reading from you, if interested in giving. Always like new experiences.”<br/><br/>He frowned at her story, sensing the tension in her tone and the reluctance in her choice of words. He wanted to needle her, but knew that doing so was only likely to have the opposite of the intended effect. “Shall not ask much; but am glad you were not one of the unlucky ones. Imagine a doctor having first hand experience with fungal infection proven invaluable thus far, if not traumatising for you. Am sorry you had to go through it.” He reached out a hand to pat her shoulder a couple of times, just to offer that mortal connection.<br/><br/>She talked about all of her experiences, and he couldn't disagree with her assessment. The last words on the subject in particular was poignant. “Will hopefully not be one to add to much to workload. Cannot promise though. Krogan and Salarian known to clash at times, and meeting with Krogan thus far was...unpleasant.” He drew his card, pulling the Two of spades and adding it to his hand. Fourteen was rough as a total. It was about a fifty-fifty as to whether the next card was going to leave him bust.<br/><br/>“You may draw third card now. When you pass, cannot draw again. Will showdown when both players have passed. Twenty-Two or above is dead hand.” He smiled at her, before his smile grew a little more devious. “Will look forward to being written up as Alpha personality. Obviously, my chest is built for pounding with fist.” He theatrically whacked his fist against his chest, as compactly Salarian as it was, and then he gave her a strange Salarian version of a wink, with his eye going up to close as opposed to down. “Opinions of Luus and Arcus were similar, will admit. Luus seemed surprisingly flirty even with me; seemed to think I 'had a taste' for him. Flattering, if not a little redundant when stood next to pretty Asari and Drell woman. Must respect his confidence. Arcus seemed straightforward, at least. Messages show he is perhaps a little on cloistered side, but not uncommon in Turian society. Military life either makes sexual relations very casual, or very clandestine. He seems to be latter.” He didn't mention his brief meeting with the Krogan who had threatened to crush a man's head in. His opinions of Drack were...unfortunately soured. He would act professionally while he led the mission, but his hopes were not high.
