Yeah...of course!!

[ The path she's currently on is definitely the most important one in her life! Not only everything with the Phantom Thieves, but her drive to become a better model and work harder, and to help Shiho smile again...she's never done anything more important. Every decision she makes counts.

...Which is a little nerve-rwracking to be reminded of by her fortune, but still! ]


And...the last one?

[ So far these have definitely reinforced some things she already knew...but it hasn't told her something new yet. ]

[ she seems happy, which is really what he most wanted to see. in his line of work it's easy to either be called a fraud, or to be called out for not being a miracle worker, but as with most things, the truth lies somewhere in the middle. molly might be a performer and a swindler by trade, but these cards are meaningful to him.. and using them to bring others joy and strength is exactly what he most wants.

so he's quite happy when he flips over the last card to reveal - ]


The silver dragon.

[ a fierce, glittering dragon curls over a blue sky, its scales flashing bright silver, its eyes watchful, its stance strong. ]

A symbol of strength, and purity. Whatever you're doing, this path you're walking, it's good, and righteous. My guess is it won't be easy, might even be painful, but you've got the strength, both within and without, to see it through.

[ his finger traces the strong ridge of the dragon's back, before he taps the card with his fingertip. ]

So if you're ever feeling run down or unsure of yourself, remember, this is what's within your heart. This power, right here.

[ The silver dragon...the power in her heart? He could see something like that?

It carries a more literal weight for Ann than he might realize, but...there's a lot of wisdom in those words. Even here, away from the mission she's sworn herself too back home, she doesn't want to lose her way. Even if she can't use her Persona, she still wants to help people, and especially those who can't help themselves.

For a moment, she looks only stunned, then contemplative, as her gaze lingers on the card. Finally, though, she turns her attention back up towards him, a warm smile on her face. ]


I will. I won't forget it, not ever.

[ Maybe it's not quite as literal of a fortune as she expected, but it's still a reminder she didn't realize she needed. So, money well spent, in her book. ]

...Thanks. You're really pretty good at this, you know?

Well, I've had some practice.

[ he chuckles, and in one clean motion sweeps the cards back together into the deck once more, though he keeps the platinum dragon between two fingers, and in one quick movement he flips it over and over, the silvery scales of the dragon flashing like sequins, and just like that the card is gone, disappeared back into the deck, and instead, in his palm, is a little silver dragon trinket. the metal isn't valuable, but it's pretty to look at.

like a coin, he flicks it toward her. ]


Keep that, for when you need the reminder.

[ He's got magic tricks, too?! Impressive. Ann's reflexes are sharp enough (thanks, Metaverse) and she catches the silver dragon, gazing at it between her palms before glancing back up at Molly. ]

Thanks. I will.

[ She didn't exactly have time to pack up back home, so she doesn't have any physical reminders with her of what her friends were doing back there. But now she has this, something to hold onto when the going gets rough. And...it will, so she appreciates the gesture, even if it might be what he tells everyone. ]

Um...by the way, are you one of the natives, or are you from another world, too?

[ He does look pretty...monster-y already, but she doesn't want to assume one way or the other! ]

[ She learned from all those times seeing Akira get hit in the head with chalk... ]

Oh, really? So you're just like me, then...

[ She's mostly encountered other humans from other worlds so far, but if monsters exist here in this one, who's to say they couldn't come from other worlds, too? At this point, it's easier just to roll with it. It's been a long day. ]

So you wasted no time making some money, huh? That's kind of inspiring!

[ She hasn't been...quite that productive since her arrival. ]

By the way, I'm Ann.
