Re: Spencer/Nell
"My first roommate in college was all into the occult and magic and stuff. She made a fascinating study for my psych classes." So, maybe she'd go on one of her verbal jaunts after all. Intelligent conversation made it all too easy. "But, she had like a million decks of tarot cards. Some of the artwork was awesome. But, I couldn't see that there was any appreciable difference in her 'readings' between Merlin's Tarot and Rider Waite and the Gnothic Deck and Witches' Tarot. She swore it did, though. Even put some of the cards up on the walls on her side of the room. That was when I looked up their history. Never knew anyone who could play any of the games, though. Just fortune telling." Which Nell held less than no stock in. A pack of cards was not outlining her future.
Laughing softly as he pulled the folded card from behind her ear, Nell took the card and, sure enough, "Ace of Clubs. Yep, that's it. A nice bit of legerdemain, Agent Reid. How long have you been practicing card tricks?" she asked, handing the card back to him with a smile.
