The jumping off buildings thing and not dying AND saving someone's life. See? Superman was so AWESOME!
Middle... long... curvy... smaller lines crossing it... All of that didn't really sound bad to Alec. It was just describing a line, yeah? But then Hulk said something about being emotionally traumatised and all Alec could do was... blink at her. Was he emotionally traumatised? Did he even know? "Erm... I don't think so..." BLINK. "Does it say that I'm emotionally traumatised?"
Shaking his head, he looked down at the glass slab that had Alice's hand print on it. "Okay... erm... your heart line begins under the middle finger which means that you're selfish in love..." He... wasn't going to tell West that, if it was true. "It's straight and short which... means..." Squint at blackboard. "Less interest in romance. And it touches the life line so that means you get your heart broken easily." Frown. Alec didn't like the sound of someone breaking Hulk's heart. Nope. He turned to her and smiled a little, waiting for her verdict.
Also... notes. He should take some of those, right?
Hulk by day, ninja by night. That was going to be Alice's new catch phrase.
"Because you're Superman." It was probably why the eye black worked so well on him. "It says you have emotional trauma. I won't tell Ells, promise." She made a zipping motion with her fingers, nodding along seriously. But those two were always happy, weren't they?
"Forget it, these readings are probably a load of old tosh anyway." And what he said next just confirmed her suspicions.
Selfish in love? What did that mean? And less interest in romance..
"My heart is very tough, I think." And unbroken. Safe, see? Alices didn't get hurt easily at all. Obviously. She offered him a reassuring smile and waited for him to take more notes before politely copying them off his parchment again. Her turn?
"Your head line's short.. ish.. pretty straight, but it's broken, too." Quote:
Alec Summers: Earth hand
- Shortish fingers (.. takes less time to wrap around snitches? Maybe?)
- Squareish palm (this has no use whatsoever)
- Deeply carved lines in palm (also useless)
Birth Hand Reading: Heart Line
- Begins in the middle --> falls in love easily
- Long and curvy --> freely expresses emotions and feelings
- Smaller lines crossing through --> emotional trauma
Birth Hand Reading: Head Line
- Short line --> prefers physical achievements over mental ones
- Straight line --> thinks realistically
- Broken line --> inconsistencies in thought
Giving his reading a once over, she decided this one was fairly accurate and pushed it closer to him so he could see.
