A Darker Porpoise posted:B is making the most sense to me. Uncle Jorah has obviously done something to calm Dad and now Dad is fairly calm in comparison to a few moments ago and is showing a form of genuine concern for us even if we don't fully understand why. I'm with this, so B. Why is Dad crying? Is fish guy going to cry too if we don't cut the hair? No one else start crying!

E. It's more realistic for a four-year old. If it wasn't too out of character, I'd want to vote to cut our own hair with the tooth just to gently caress with Dad though.

Voting B. It seems like something we could do, and it looks like Dad will help us cut her hair. Also, it seems like the best option to diffuse the situation and score some points with Dad. Also, many of the other options seem like they would have harmful consequences to us/others. We need to chill Dad the gently caress out. Stop crying, Dad. Also, this is a lot of heavy poo poo for a four year old to handle. Deadly Ham Sandwich fucked around with this message at 01:49 on May 23, 2013 |

Voting B, but instead of screaming 'Ashera' or something, mumble out "Sorry Mr. Fishy" Possibly like any 4 yr old would do after everyone's been crying cause Dads angry, but now things have calmed down slightly and Dads now asking you to apologize to his friend, who is a very important giant fish.

C: I think the options are pretty clearly between C/B or just freaking out and doing nothing. We're 4, freaked out, and the guy who's pretty much the big man in charge of our life has told us to do something. Gonna cut that hair like we've been told, because we don't know what the gently caress is going on, so we'd better do what the adults are saying, but we're too confused and shaken up to do any crying out or pleading of our own accord. Try to stay mute, cut the hair and hope everything works out. Unless it's common practice here to call out to Fishgod for things, and we're familiar with doing such. Then B, I guess, as it would be common sense.

Going with option B because Dad is angry and yelling and everyone is mad. We're 4 and very small and rather helpless overall. I think having a major figure in your life beating the hell out of another major figure in your life would be terrify. I also personally thing that if we were to refuse to cut her hair, Father would kill Jalitha.

Option B This is gonna end up badly no matter what we do. To be honest it's kind of annoying having so little information. Losing your hair in our fish religion means dying/damnation. So probably we cut Jalitha's hair and that marks her as a human sacrifice or whatever. But it's the least bad option in the list.

Meh, I'm going to go with B. I guess it's the scream/cry at the big fish to not beat other people up option? I figure it's making amends for whatever. Clearly dad thinks cutting our hair is wrong. While two wrongs don't make a right, cutting her hair seems fair.

Diogines posted:"Grip tightly my son and CUT! Beg that Asherah will not hold you to account for the crimes of this witch!" your father says as he kneels over Jalitha and pulls her strange and pretty hair out straight for you to cut. Oh god.... Dad never said anything about cutting her hair. He just pulled her head back by the hair and said cut... NOOOOO!

FoxTerrier posted:Eh...yeah, but in fairness, Jalitha did pull a seriously dick move cutting our hair when she knew it was prohibited in the faith of the village. The whole thing was a bit Edgardo Mortara for my taste. Absolutely we need to keep her from being beaten again, but I don't feel any reason we should avoid crying out to our god on her behalf. Well, that gives an interesting perspective to things. Still, let's give Jalitha the benefit of the doubt for now, since we're, you know, four.

I think if we cut her hair instead of killing her, it would show that we're also basically a heretic, and we're going to be exiled along with Jalitha. Basically, we're about to become Ishmael. C We can start when we're about to die of dehydration in the desert.

Good news! There are no actual deserts in the local region! Even north where it is more arid, but, it is not really a desert and there are actual forests near you, such as the one you currently live in, near the beach. Diogines fucked around with this message at 04:30 on May 23, 2013 |
