Fics like belomancy

Even less reliable than superstitions are divinations. An exorcist requires innate strength, but their success is a matter of memorized knowledge and its use. Actions, consequences. Fortune-telling exists in the ambiguity of youkai themselves. Signs must be interpreted, metaphors parsed, exact conditions met. Asking a dozen people for one's fortune would result in a dozen variations, and when the fortune came to be, each fortune-teller would find ways to bend their own words to suit what had happened. It's the supernatural for fools, romanticists, or both. I wonder what that makes me, Seiji thinks, hands folded inside his kimono, eye falling off irrelevant scrolls in the family library.
