[ it would undoubtedly be lost on joel, anyway, as so much of the stuff matt does and thinks is. ]

So is this your roundabout way of telling me I have to be on the look out for more rock shops?

[semicharmed]

I'd appreciate it. ☺️

And I could make it worth your while.

[ matt i swear to god are you gonna-- ]

Make you a nice enchantment or something. I don't think I've done that yet.

[antifungi]

Uh-huh.

Don't know if I need any extra bad luck.

[ he's kidding, probably. ]

[semicharmed]

heyyyy!

My spells usually work. My good luck spells DEFINITELY work

[antifungi]

Usually's doing a whole lot of work, there, ain't it?

You got anything else?

[semicharmed]

I include that only because I'm always trying new things, and it's unrealistic to expect everything to work the first time

[ Then there's a pause between messages. ]

Let's see ... I've got shields and wards, which is a pretty broad category of keeping things out or in. I've had good luck lately deflecting storm damage.

Or I can cause a storm, if you need rain for anything

There's invisibility, faster-growing houseplants, finding lost objects or people. I can enchant a knife so it'll always point towards the fastest route from Point A to Point B, or enchant a compass so it'll lead you to fresh water. Enhance your memory.

I don't know, there's ... kind of a lot. And it's flexible.

Anything you need right now?

[antifungi]

You got anything that'll tell me when somebody's full of shit?

[semicharmed]

oh

actually

like detecting falsehoods? I can totally do that.

[antifungi]

Yeah? That a "usually" can do, or you have some experience already?

[semicharmed]

I have experience.

You'll never guess what the main ingredient is.

[antifungi]

I'm gonna guess it's a rock.

[semicharmed]

A crystal, yeah 😊

Amazonite and aquamarine are traditional truth promoters/lie detectors. Sapphire if you have $$$, but in my opinion not really worth it

[antifungi]

I'll keep that in mind.

[ he won't, but matt probably already knows that. ]

[semicharmed]

[ He definitely has an inkling. ]

Who are you worried will try and lie to you?

[antifungi]

A better question'd be who am I not expecting to?

[semicharmed]

Me, I'd assume. I'm told I have a terrible poker face.

[antifungi]

Calling it a poker face at all is being generous.

Still. Puts you on a much shorter list.

[semicharmed]

[ ugh sorry for the wait!!! my body has not been cooperating with me ]

haha

[ This could read as sarcastic, but Matt is genuinely amused. Where's the lie, right? He's never gotten the hang of poker anyway, whereas he took to tarot just fine. ]

I might have some amazonite on hand, actually

[antifungi]

[ aw, no worries. you're good!! ]

And I haven't even hit up a single strip mall, yet. Typically payment's only arranged after the job's done.

[semicharmed]

Linear time is just a construct we all agree to

[ If Joel has nurtured a suspicion that sometimes Matt leans into the woo-woo thing on purpose, just to be annoying ... he's not crazy.

Matt would say "to be playful," but to-may-to, to-mah-to. ]

But I also trust you to follow through.

And maybe you'll be more motivated if you see what these crystals can do.

[antifungi]

All of us except you, apparently.

[ "sometimes"? no, always. and it's more of a certainty than a suspicion, by now.

matt's just lucky he's funny. somewhat. (just a little.) ]

You've got a lot of misplaced faith in my desire to hunt down kitschy rock shops for you. Or a little too much confidence in yourself.

[ he's still going to do it, though. for some unfathomable reason. ]

[semicharmed]

I can't believe you're telling me to have less self-esteem

[ jk he definitely can believe it. ]

[antifungi]

You want a pep talk, you're gonna have to earn it.

[semicharmed]

And I intend to.

Any kinds of falsehoods in particular you're trying to look out for? Dishonesty in business transactions, infidelity? Or are you interested in more of a catchall

[antifungi]

Business transactions ought to cover it.

I assume there's a little flexibility in how exactly we're defining that.
