[And all of that without cheating a bit. There's that sometimes he told Jester about- those moments when he feels like he can really see into a person's heart.
He looks down at the Ten of Wands as she indicates it, and his personal weakness of doing everything in his power to make other people happy takes the wheel. Lying and bullshitting are easy and you can give genuine joy doing those things, but sometimes a person needs a straight answer.
Which, of course, he can't provide, but he can do a little bit of gentle prodding in a direction that he thinks she needs.]
Well... In fire terms and you have a lot of fire in your cards, it's like no matter how hot the flame and how much it burns, it can eventually just burn itself down to embers. So no matter how much you put into trying to do something specific, you're more likely to burn yourself out than succeed. It's not necessarily a bad thing- generally, when this card appears, it's a warning to step back and reevaluate what you're doing.
[He picks up the card between his fingers.] Someone put something on your shoulders, didn't they?
