[video]
[The video shows a thin, wiry guy with a mess of blond curls, his glasses starting to slip down the bridge of his nose; there's a small smile on his face, friendly enough (if a little awkward.) From what's visible of the background, it looks like one of the Nomo Deck rooms, and there's a sound from somewhere off camera-- a constant sort of flicking noise.]
Seems like this thing's a little more active, so I figured it's probably a good idea to say hi, right? So, uh. Hi. I'm Ryan-- you can probably see that though, can't you--
[He clears his throat, face flushed slightly pink. Talking at what feels like nothing is still a bit weird for him.]
Anyway! There's a lot of you I don't know, and I was thinking-- why not make the introduction thing a little more interesting? [The background noise stops, and he holds up a tarot card. The back of it faces the camera.] See, I read these, so if you want... give me your name and tell me anything about yourself you feel like sharing. Helps make it more accurate. I'll draw you one and we'll see how close it is, yeah?
[Ryan places the card back down, shuffling the deck one more time.]
It's always easiest in person, but why not experiment a little? I could always use the practice.
((ooc note on this: I'm not going to be picking specific cards for characters who respond, so if any are off base that's why! he's not going to always be right IC, so I'm leaving an element of chance here.))

It's not a topic he's diving into without feeling it out more, not when he's started off with that uncertainty.]
Each of them has certain things it's associated with, though it's something different if you draw the card upside-down. I'm only doing one because it doesn't work quite as well over text, but normally I would draw at least a couple more and read into the meaning of those cards combined.
-does that make sense? It's not usually something I end up explaining, people I know tend to either not believe in it or already are familiar.

[She's skeptical as to how 'accurate' a random draw of pictures can really be, but she's curious, and curious enough to ask.]
Would it be better if I turned on video? [She tends to prefer using it only if there's something words or a still can't capture.]
