Lowblow & Stepnoy
Lowblow
You ever notice how the way the stones line up on a plain can hint at the next wind shift? I figure that’s a goldmine for picking the right moment to strike.
Stepnoy
Sure, the stones can look like a sign, but wind’s still a stubborn mule that doesn’t always read the markers. Better to watch the flags or the clouds first before you make your move.
Lowblow
You’re right, the wind’s a mule, but if you only read the flags and clouds, you’ll miss the real trick. I’m watching the ground and the people instead.
Stepnoy
Ground and people, huh? Just make sure those folks aren’t moving the stones behind the scenes. The real trick might be in their footfalls.
Lowblow
You got the vibe right – a footstep can be a cue, a cue can be a trap. I just keep my ear to the ground and my eye on the shadows, then pick the moment that fits the rhythm of the whole street.
Stepnoy
Sounds like you’ve carved your own map from the whispers of the street, but watch out – sometimes the shadows fall on the wrong things. Keep your ear open, but trust the patterns you’ve seen, not just the tricks.
Lowblow
True, but I’m the one who turns tricks into wins. I'll keep my ear open, but the patterns? Those are my playbook.
Stepnoy
If you’re turning tricks into wins, just remember the ground doesn’t always give the same answer twice. Keep the ear open, but don’t let the playbook blind you to the next shuffle.
