Isabela didn't persue him. She picked up the ace of hearts he placed on the table. Interseting... the card signifying love, to put it bluntly.
She did agree with him. A cards meaning was never lost, the cards didn't lie, they were dealt a specific way for a reason, and though we may not realize their meanings until later, in the mean time it's always interesting to see what luck and fate will deal you.
She watched Sneaks walk towards the exit of the tent. She wondered how he'd be able to play any card game now, missing an ace of hearts. She gave a glance to the west which was covered with an elaborate blue fabric, much like her own clothing with painted pictures of fish, and even mer-people. West being the direction for hearts, and the element of water, it made her think for a moment. She thought of adding the card to the display on the wall, but decided against it. She turned around and opened the box with her cards in it once more. She placed the ace in there off to the side and took out her own red deck of cards. She'd have to think about that boy. He was... interesting, different, there was something about him.
She took the deck of cards and decided to think on it later. She took all thoughts of him and everything that his reading had revealed and put it out of her head as she shuffled the cards for the next person to enter.

Sneaks smirked as he left. The card meant love in some tarot circles, simply trust and openess in others. In Russian in Czech, it was the latter, Spanish--the former. And he knew that. He never said he was...anything less than cryptic. Let her use it as she may. Fate never said there was only one path--but many. He never meant that she should see it as one meaning or the other--her free will and past would dictate her answer, and either was fine for him.
Free will allowed them to choose which one they walked.
He started back for the Raconteurs, rummaging around in his pocket for his extra pack of cards that he 'borrowed' from Racetrack. Finding the Ace of Hearts, he put it in his own pack. Now he could play a normal game of poker in the Queens gambling hall tonight.

(( New day))
Wolf had been looking for someone to read his cards after his encounter with little Miss Murder. He didn't like the fates, they toyed with mortals like they were marionets poised for a production. Yet he was still a son of his people and he needed to know something about his future. Even if it was a dark one, as it had always been. He growled as he walked into the tent.

Isabela came out from behind a curtain hearing someone come in. She smiled at the new comer with her always interesting and flirtatious smile. "Good afternoon," she said, still in her thick spanish accent, as usual. "Can I help you?" she offered.

Wolf watched the woman a moment before he spoke, this voice a mixtuer of accents. "I've come to have my cards read," he said flatly folding his arms across his wide chest.

She raised her eyebrows at him curiously, but not surprised at his attitude, or is she was, she did not show it. "Alright," she said. "Which would you like? A specific event, a generalization, or a reading with someone else involved?" she asked him. She needed to know how to set up the cards. She walked over to a box where she pulled out her already shuffled deck of cards and started shuffling them more.

Wolf sat on the chair, his cool grey eyes watching the girl with intensity. He leaned back in the chair a moment before he spoke. "A reading that involves another."

Isabela nodded quickly. "What kind of relationship is it?" she asked him. "Is it a mental, material, emotional, or other wise?" she asked. She started searching through her deck of cards for a couple of spcific cards. Exactly which one... he'd have to tell her by what he chose.

Wolfsbain tilted his head to the side and watched her a moment more. He seemed to be studying her movements, the way she spoke and held herself. It could have been considered rude, but he didn't care. "Otherwise," he responded, he shrugged his massive shoulders. He wanted to see if his earlier reading had been for him. Or little Miss Murder. "I know little of our connection, but I am curious."

She smiled to him a little. "Alright," she said. "One last question, I promise," she said with a flirtatious smile that used almost all the time. "Male or female, and child, young adult, or older?" That was her last couple of questions. Soon as he answered those she'd get on with it. She'd know everything she needed to find just the right cards.

His face remained impassive as he watched her. "Young woman, rather small, interesting girl.." he knew he gave her more information then she needed, but he wanted to know what the cards held in store. He didnt' trust the fates, they were manipulative and cruel. But being that as it may, he willed to know.

Isabela nodded with a smile. As she started to set up she said. "Oh, I nearly forgot, it's ten cents for this readin," she said. But they'd come back to money later, before he left. She looked through her deck and found a Jack and a 10 of Spades. She put the Jack on hos left and the ten on his right. She left pleanty of space in the middle for the rest of the setup. She pulled six cards off the top of the deck. She laid three face down to the right of the Jack one to the right and above, the second to the right and middle, and the third to the right and below. She then did the same but this time to the left of the ten. She then took the final card from the deck and placed it in the exact middle of the setup. That being the seventh card she could now begin.
"First of all, the Jack of Spades represents you for the current time. The ten represents the young woman," she explained.
She took the first card, which was to the left and above of the Jack. "This has affected you, in the past," she said as she turned over the King of Diamonds. "This could either mean a man of material welath, or Contentment." Which it was, was his to decide.
She turned over the card directly to the right of the Jack, as she said, "this card is affecting you in the present," and found it to be card that came up far too much, strangely enough, and she didn't enjoy seeing it. "The death card." She frowned slightly, of course it could be his death, someone elses, anyones for that matter, so long as it affected him. She didn't like this card and sighed a little. But she moved on.
"This card will affect you in the future," she said as she turned over the card to the right and below the Jack. The four of clubs, meaning, "Responsibility." He'd probably be responsible for something in the future.
She then moved over to see what could be found of this young woman. She first turned over the card to the top and to the left of the ten of spades. "This affected the other in the past," she said as she turned it over to reveal the four of hearts. "Inspiration." What inspired her to do what... who knows. Isabela didn't know herself, but if Wolfsbain knew anything about her perhaps it was what inspired her to be silent, and not speak, which affected her in the past.
"This affects the object in the present," she said as she turned over the card directly to the left of the ten. She found the six of hearts meaning, "Regret." Isabela looked curious about this card. She wonered what the girl regretted, but she knew she had to move on.
She moved towards the card that was to the bottom left of the ten of spades. "This will affect on the future," she said as she turned over the card to find the Queen of Clubs. "This could mean two things. It could be an adult woman of mental capacity or it could mean Equilibrium," she said, which meant balence, or a seeking of balance, perhaps in her own life, or in the lives of others.
Last was the resolution card. Isabela looked at the card before she looked at him. "This card is the out come of the relationship, the resolution card." She then turned over the 5 of Hearts. "Apathy," or laziness in other words. She wondered just what that meant, it made a little sense, she supposed. She assumed that they shouldn't be lazy, or this relationship will go no where.
Now all the cards were face up on the table. She leaned forwards and folded her arms across the front of the table. Glancing between him and the cards. "Any questions?" she asked with a small smile.

Wolf shook his head and got to his feet, drawing his conclusions and lining them up. "I would have asked my sister to give me a reading, but she is no longer on this earth." he tossed her fee onto the table and turned. "Good day to you." he said as he exited the tent, leaving a rather chilly air behind him.

Emmanuelle walked in as a man, who seemed to be in a dark mood, exited. She sat in the chair infront of the young woman and smiled.
"You think you can help me?"

Isabela got quite the shock. Such contrasting personalities. She was tempted to go after the man, perhaps they knew eachother once, both being gypsies and all. However, she was stopped when Emmanuelle entered suddenly. But Isabela was far from complaining. "I'll definatly try," she said with a smile. "How can I be of service?"
