Zati took the cup carefully, as if it were the most fragile thing she'd ever held. She tilted the cup slowly to peek in, taking one symbol at a time. Her eyes darted around. Curiously, she still hadn't put her glasses back on for this.

"Wings circle the outer edges, engulfing all other signs within them. They are great and proud, and within them... I see a wheel, ever turning in the center, but whether you are a spoke or not is unclear... Something inevitable. I see.. fire. At the bottom of the wheel. A small flame, not great, not dangerous, but burning strongly nonetheless. The wings are so large, surely they must mean... You will soar to great heights, maybe? You will..."

Zati paused a moment to scratch her chin, mumbling to herself.

"Wings? Wings, they mean freedom and seeing things clearly... but... These are so big! What could that-- could that mean, maybe... flight? That's too much to say. And the wheel... certainty of wings? An uncontrollable fate... leading to a kindling, beautiful fire?"

The almost-teacher glanced back up at Char and smiled, tapping the cup lightly with a nail.

"Wings are a certainty, of course, but... whether that means metaphorically or not... Well, I don't think you have wings under your shirt, but one doesn't need wings necessarily to fly. Take it lightly-- you will be uplifted, carried by the ever-blowing winds of change."

Charlie waited patiently. He was curious about all of this, and knew very little about it, but it wasn't as if she had something hugely important riding on the conclusion. It was just something entertaining to pass the time.

Y'know, probably. Stressing over it all wasn't going to help anyone or anything, so for now Charlie was just chill.

Wings, a wheel, and fire? What, like dying in a car crash? Zati's mood didn't seem to support that, though, so it was probably just a weird jump of Char's. He was just going to blame modern TV and the stereotypical depiction of a still-spinning wheel amongst the fiery wreckage of a horrible crash.

It was a bit easier to think about car crashes than the implications of actually being able to fly. Char had never been in a car accident, after all, but she had broken bones trying to get into the air. Not once but twice.

Charlie definitely could not fly.

His smile was a little bit strained when Zati finished. "Let's go with metaphorically," she said.
