The Park, all day

[fh-fillers.livejournal.com]

Somewhere around dawn, a tent mysteriously appeared in the middle of the park. There was an air of mystery about it, and it was hard not to miss, and did we mention it was mysterious? Because it was.

Inside the tend was an equally mysterious fortuneteller, and you could tell she was a fortuneteller because of all the candles and the tarot cards and the crystal ball. Not many people travel with those things for fun and set them up in a tent, you know?

She'd be here probably all day, welcoming those who may be curious to get insight into their own futures...

"Come in... Turtle, is it?" the fortuneteller greeted her. "Are you interested in what your future will be?"

"Yeah, it's Turtle," she said, nodding, eying the fortuneteller a little before stepping closer. Either she was very good...or simply had heard of Turtle Wexler, which she imagined was pretty likely, so she wasn't going to just to thinking this woman was that good quite yet. "And yeah, let's hear it."

The crystal ball swirled mysteriously, and the fortuneteller gazed into it. "Ah, yes. It's all becoming very clear. You will attend Princeton to become a lawyer. You will live in London, in a shack. You will marry Doug Hoo on the moon. Your honeymoon will be on the moon. You will have 8 kids and a cat. You will drive a red the piece of crap your daddy bought you for your birthday."

"...Princeton! You fraud!"

Because, yes. It was the Princeton part of the entire thing that Turtle seemed to have the most issue with.

"I assure you, it says it right here," she insisted.

"Are you sure you're sure?" Turtle asked. "I'm pretty sure it should say Harvard."

Re: Have your fortune told!

[fh-fillers.livejournal.com]

"I'm sure," she said, even looking again. "It definitely says Princeton."

"It bet it was stupid Doug Hoo's fault. He probably got a scholarship or something to...Wait. Doug? Jerkface Doug?"

"If that's your pet name for him, yes I suppose that's him," she nodded. "Yes, most definitely him."

"...and we're getting married on the moon?"

Re: Have your fortune told!

[fh-fillers.livejournal.com]

"Yes. I hear it's all the rage." No she didn't.

"...and having the honeymoon in the same place? Do you know how tacky that is?"

"Maybe there was a deal," she reasoned. "Like getting married and honeymooning in Hawaii. But more exotic."

Turtle's nose wrinkled skeptically. "And eight kids? Where am I going to find time for that?"

Although Doug was a track star. His whole goal in life was to finish things as quickly as possible...

Which now got the thought of sex with Doug Hoo in her head, and she let out a long, disgusted groan, hands covering her red face.

"Adoption?" she guessed.

Turtle crossed her arms over her chest.

"I want my money back."

Re: Have your fortune told!

[fh-fillers.livejournal.com]

"You didn't pay," she reminded her.

Re: Have your fortune told!

[stocksgrrl.livejournal.com]

"Oh."

That's right, she didn't.

"Well...good."

With that, Turtle nodded, and turned to go, shaking her head to the tune of muttered Princetons.
