Has anything "claiming" happened to people here? Has anyone disappeared today? Thirteen souls claimed that we must get back is not the most promising of invitations, even when announced politely on high quality paper in calligraphy. Given what I have seen and heard, it seems like words to be taken literally. Beyond that, it could sound promising.

I want us all to be ready for this ball. If we need to go, I do not want us to be banned at the door for inappropriate dress. No excuses. ~~The trials would have been so exciting were it not for someone's soul.~~

	You can't. I've lived with them. I know. Things have prices. You can't just walk into it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am working to be prepared. If they take one of you, I will walk into it, knowing there will be a price. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am grateful for your concern. I feel it for everyone too. But there is a price paid, in not going, as well. And that one I may not be able to pay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What if they ask you to trade someone in exchange for someone else? What if you can't choose yourself? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Then it is good that you have raised the question ahead of time. I do not terribly see how that would test my character. But avoiding facing that question becomes equivalent to choosing whomever they take first; already it plays their game, if that is it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I am sure I do not get it, not entirely. It will be a new situation, and I am sure it would be nicer if we continue not to be able to get it; if we do, it likely means something terrible. But our optimism, our hope, our effort to go on because it may be necessary to help each other, it is not ignoring your sage advice. And I do not think you are being stupid. It is simply an acknowledgement that you have good points but not good enough to stop any and all interactions with these faeries. That is something we are each responsible for. Not you.

	You can't out brain fairies and you can't talk your way out of a fairy deal. A deal is a deal. Only a fairy can break the deal and no fairy would. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The invitation doesn't mention deals. I agree. You shouldn't make any deals. But if they hold up their honor with deals than it is likely they'll do so with their trials. And the people who may be taken didn't ask to be. They didn't volunteer. There isn't much of a choice in that manner, is there? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And I didn't ask to be traded for whatever my parents deemed worthy of trading me. But fine. Think I'm being stupid. I don't care. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
