Kellen picked up the card and went through his notes, "Four of Pentacles... is saying that you're being stingy about something. You've got something that makes you feel like a richer person, and there's no way you plan on giving it up. You don't want to look to the future, because you might not have it anymore, so instead you focus absolutely on the present."
He raised an eyebrow, a smirk on his face as he regarded Sabel, "Clinging to something with every fibre of your being, seventh year? Or someone?" Laughing, Sabel shook his head. "Wouldn't want the world to go backwards. Would ruin all the fun of it going forwards." Shaking his head he leaned back in his chair and folded his arms. "You don't have to worry about me getting sage and having to put your emotions in a blender." Not that he was sure if a potpourri involved a blender, but he figured it was close enough. See? No wiseness.
At first, the card sounded utterly ridiculous. Richness wasn't something he really cared about and he never considered himself stingy. Stubborn yes, but not hoarding. It was the second part and Kellen's following comments that had the smile leaving his lips and taking the card to replace it on the top of the pile almost immediately. "I'm joining the ITF. Having ties to hold you back doesn't exactly work with them." The words came out a bit more bitter and sharp than he wanted him to, but he didn't want a reminder of any of that. Not now.
Piling the deck back he pushed it towards Kellen. "Guess we can do another card."
