While the initial flash of colour in the corner of his eyes had been the first thing that had caught his eye, Taiki soon focused more on the young man working with the cards. He was clearly having a time of it- not that Taiki himself was doing much better, honestly. Still... how many times had he been grateful to meet a friendly stranger, in a moment of need?

He didn't ask the obvious question of 'is aught amiss'. Most people, when prompted with such a question, would respond with something to the effect of 'oh, no, I'm quite alright, thanks for asking', and that would be that. With the unspoken bit of 'I'm really not, but you're a stranger and I'd rather not be a bother' hanging in the air and strangling in the cradle any attempt at rendering aid.

So! Attack from an unusual angle, redirect. He approached, leaned over slightly to examine the cards, smiled. "Are you doing Astrology?" He glanced up at the other man, pointing at the middle card. "Only I don't recognize the Arcana so they must be different from my home, but they look so much more portentious than your usual playing cards."

Adam blinked, looking up. "Oh- they're tarot cards," he explained. It was a good thing an unusual angle was taken with him; he was exactly the type to go 'oh no, I'm fine' and worry about being a bother. But the cards, on the other hand? Those he could talk about.

"They're for telling someone's future." Or communicating with a magic forest, as the case might be. Adam had been hoping the cards would tell him something about this place, just...communicate something with him. But something was off and he couldn't place his finger on what. Maybe it was him. Could it be the 'something off' was him? "They're different than I'm used to, too."

"Well!" Taiki clapped his hands, beaming brightly. "Would you believe that a very close friend of mine has taught me a thing or two about something very similar? I always found it fascinating. Perhaps you could explain how it works to me?"

He took a seat on the park bench, beckoning a torchic into his lap. "I don't mind returning the favor, of course. I'm Taiki, yourself?"
