  fanning the flames* "I don't 'want' this to happen, I just see it."
"I tell the future"
"Okay, tell me mine"

"But I'm in Rome."
"Do I lie?"

The Dune school of divination
In Gym of the Romantic Journey, there was a character who could see the future, and then bring it about. Once he shot someone with a paintball gun because someone was going to wipe him off with a paperclip, and they'd look silly if he didn't have paint on him. And once he rushed into a room where a fire started, and then was relieved that he didn't have to be the one to start it.
