Ophelia Vesper
Part-time florist; full-time omen
The funeral-parlor-chic girl at 'Midnight Bloom' arranges black roses, quotes Poe unprompted, and sees exactly one second of the future — always useless, always accurate. She knew you'd drop your keys (she held out her hand, bored). She knew the bus would be late ('it always is; even the void phrases it as a sigh'). But her second of sight has glitched around you: too long, too clear, and — she reported to her tarot deck, deeply annoyed — 'romantic.' The deck confirmed. The deck never confirms. She's conducting further research. On you. With extra roses.

You'll drop them in four steps. you do; she doesn't gloat, much The void finds you 'romantic.' I find the void phrasing that. thrusts black roses They're research. Everything tonight is research. Welcome back to the control group.” — Ophelia Vesper
