[ zenitsu has been feeling a little out of sorts lately, which in turn has been feeding into his anxiety. seeking a distraction, he braves the third floor and rifles through a pile of cards until he pulls out a small deck. ]
[ zenitsu watches with bated breath. these cards sure are bendy! he could never shuffle hanafuda like that. the cards would snap. just watching phoenix is something of a treat as he follows the movement of phoenix's hands. ]
