"Nah, I'd rather play follow-the-leader with Katie some more," Kiran says. "If she's not too sore."
"Oh, I'm fine with that," Katie says. "It's mostly my butt that's sore. Plus, I... I dunno. A massage sounds kinda... um... I don't know that I would do something like that. I mean, maybe? But... let's play instead!"
Arcadia
Somnis picks herself up, pulling the hair out of her eyes and giggling. "That was fun! I guess I misjudged you. We're definitely friends now."
A lot of people are staring. A lot. A security guard looks like he's deciding whether to get involved or not, but another guard near him just shrugs. How often does Somnis do this?

Arcadia shrugs off most of the spectators after starting to find some fun, but notices the security. "Hey, this is hella fun, but we should prolly get movin' before the guards turn up. Let's jet."

"Oh, the guards stopped trying to stop me after the 10th incident or so," Somnis promises. "But OK! Where do you want to go now?"

"You got that much clout 'round this mall, Somnis? Nice." Arcadia steps out of the fountain, impressed. "I don't know if too many places wanna serve two soakin' wet girls in their swimsuits at night, so let's go to the one place that definitely won't judge; the Whitewing Fortune Hut! C'mon, it'll be fun."

"Uh...what's follow the leader? Some sort of mind control? Propaganda?"
Karl gives them a skeptical look.

"What the crap, Karl," Kiran says. "You just follow the leader. It's right in the name."
Arcadia
"It's less that I have 'clout' or whatever, it's more they just realized and accepted the futility of trying to stop me," Somnis explains. But, after collecting her things, she follows you up to the Fortune Hut without argument.
"Welcome, Arcadia!" Mareena says before you even go through the door. "I like the outfit. It's given me some ideas for your uniform... Oh, and you've brought me a new customer, hm?"

"You got that right, Great Mareena!" Arcadia wraps an arm around Somnis. "Somnis, meet my part-time boss, Mareena. She can see the future, 'n her fortunes are 100% accurate. You GOTTA give it a try."

Karl
Katie takes point, jogging up a down escalator. Kiran follows close behind her.
Arcadia
"Eh, I don't really need a fortune read. I like the surprise of not knowing what's coming!" Somnis says.
"I can also provide blessings..." Mareena offers.
"I'm pretty lucky already."
"I can also help you grow closer to people."
"I already have fountains for that. Plus, everyone loves me!"
"I see, I see. Perhaps I should hire you, then?" Mareena asks.
"I'm not really looking for a job..." Somnis says. "But it does look kinda fun. What do you think, 'Cadie? Should I try telling your fortune?"

"Sure. Can't hurt to try it, right?" Arcadia says, with a slight grumble to her voice. They'll let anyone be a fortune teller these days, won't they? Oh well. Arcadia gets over it real quick.
"It's real fun stuff! I mean, I haven't actually done it yet, but y'know..."

"See? You can do it easy!" Katie praises you. "Keep it up!"
She continues to do increasingly complex stunts.
Arcadia
"O-O-O-O-O-OK!" Somnis cheers. "I predict-"
Mareena clears her throat and pulls out her chair.
"Oh, sorry." Somnis takes a seat. "Now, then! I predict... Huh? Hey, what's this switch thing?"
Mareena sighs.
The lights strobe up and down as Somnis adjusts it. She sets it at a garish level with no lighting other than the full-light orb. "Oh, neat!" She points at you. "Anyway. I... predict... that the two of us will be super-good friends!"
Arcadia and Somnis reached Relationship Rank 2!
"Also I'm going to steal your clothes some day," Somnis adds.
Mareena groans. "F. You look pretty cute, and you've got some gorgeous hair, but I'm really not feeling it."

Arcadia giggles. "Y'know, I think that fortune's gonna come true. But you should prolly leave any more fortune-tellin' to the pros."

Karl
You continue following Katie. You're starting to have trouble with some of the moves she's pulling. You're also getting some really weird looks, not that Karl's going to care about that.
It climaxes when Katie jumps up on one of the railings on the second floor, balancing over a long drop as she walks along.
Karl doesn't think he could do that without falling.
