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.
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?
