Given The Chance

Quick post before I go to my first ser­vice of the day…

I haven’t had the adop­tion talk with Clint or Tommy yet, but in one of Tommy’s clues, I told him that he was not allowed to adopt or be adopted by any­one. This was basi­cally a knee-​jerk reac­tion to see­ing him get adopted by some­one right in front of me in the mid­dle of Secret Week. I told him that no one in Alan Tan’s line can be adopted.

Well, I real­ized after­wards that was a bit hyp­o­crit­i­cal. After­all, I’ve been adopted by Alice C and Bethany. My BB has adopted Eddie C and Bao. (But none of these cases were dur­ing Secret Week… it’s just messed up to adopt dur­ing that time.) There’s plenty of other cases, now, too… so yeah, the Tan line man­date doesn’t really apply any­more. I guess what I’m say­ing is, Clint and Tommy… if you want to be adopted by other BBs, it’s cool with me. Just remem­ber who your real BB is. :) (Oh, and Tommy, you might want to check with Clint, because I don’t know how he feels about this.) Oh, and please don’t get bul­lied, bribed, or trended into adop­tion… do it if you hon­estly feel that per­son would have been a good BB for you.

And then there’s the other side of the coin. Dur­ing the week before Secret Week and the week of Secret Week, there were a hand­ful of pledges I talked to where I basi­cally felt… “I wouldn’t mind if you were my LB.” Or some­thing like that. ;) One pledge even asked me the day after Reveal­ing if I would adopt them, assum­ing their real BB had cleared it first. I was hon­ored. And sorely tempted. But I’ve decided to be old school and not to adopt unless their real BB has gone MIA.

  1. Haha­haha… Your line TECHNICALLY is sup­posed to not have any of its mem­bers adopted, but mem­bers of your line can adopt out… How do you think I got adopted into Alan’s line? :wink:
