It...can vary. Uh, basically it--means having a personality not as compatible with that change? I'm sorry, this is kind of hard to explain, it's very much a background thing in my home culture.

Well, I gotta know what to look for.

Yeah. Problem is even if you're familiar with the phenomenon it can be hard to predict, especially from the outside. Maybe look for people who wouldn't mind shifting a little in one direction or another.

There's probably a lot of reds who feel like they could stand to be less submissive and agreeable.

Then I would recommend Conquest and to a lesser extent Effort. It's not directly opposed to Sympathy or anything, but...

A lot of us do a thing where we act really differently at home and around clean people, I'm not sure how that affects it.

I don't know.

I guess we can see.

I guess.

Somehow when the Orvarans asked if I wanted reds for experiments I doubt this is what they meant.

If they didn't want you to use your experimental subjects for nationbuilding and magic-tutoring experiments they should have been more specific! "Here are some reds. Please use only for horrifying medical procedures."

I mean, I think it was decontamination experiments? Which do not necessarily need to be horrifying. But yes, I imagine they wouldn't have cared if it was.

Nobody would've given a shit!

I know.

We care.

It's nice. Katin picture. She's got her mouth around the edge of a chair arm and looks like she will presently comment on its piquance.

Oh gosh.

She can say "pah" now!

That's wonderful! Congratulate her from me.

I said "Ihia congratulates you on saying pah!" and she said "ahm ahm ahm".

Eee!

Katin video! She waves fat little arms and says hmmmmmmmm!

The internet is the best. Photos are the best. Video is the best.

Computers are so great!

I don't know any specifics but sometimes reds manage to get good enough online fake identities and can do some remote work.

That's a good idea! Hm. Maybe we could get them doing agriculture and sell food to other red districts?

There'll be more of a niche for that after the Voan food is all eaten up and it was a lot of food and there aren't that many reds, but you could probably get some summer crops underway now, sure.

Okay. Uh, should you relay the suggestions, should I be looking into getting them seeds?
