another practitioner pointed out something i had not considered. i purchased it. money changed hands. an agreement was made. the seller gave me the MRCHA and i accepted it. if whatever is inside understands transactions as contracts, then i may not have simply purchased an object. i may have agreed to something. i hate contract MAICG.
ᛝ They are right. ᛝ ᛝ But you at least, as the purchaser, have the upper hand in the arrangement. ᛝ ᛝ ... In theory. ᛝ ᛝ In theory. ᛝ ᛝ Be wary. ᛝ

you saying "in theory" twice has somehow made the phrase "upper hand" substantially less comforting. i am going to behave as though i have the advantage while planning around the possibility that i absolutely do not. seems like a healthy compromise!

oh. that's clever. i still have the receipt, so i can check the exact amount. i also remember most of the conversation well enough to write it down before memory starts helping me invent a better version of it. there was one phrase that struck me as strange at the time. when they handed it over, they didn't say "it's yours." they said, "then you can carry it." thought it was a joke...
ᛝ Yes. Good. ᛝ ᛝ Do not reveal your weakness. ᛝ ᛝ Maintain a visage of confidence. ᛝ ᛝ It may or may not help. ᛝ ᛝ But it will make you feel better. ᛝ ᛝ Which will make things move more smoothly. ᛝ
ᛝ The burden passed on. ᛝ ᛝ But no transfer of "ownership". ᛝ ᛝ ... You have been made a vessel. ᛝ

eugh. i dislike the word "vessel" substantially more than i disliked "contract."
ᛝ It means a vessel in the sense of a ship more so than a body. ᛝ ᛝ ... But there is always a chance. ᛝ ᛝ Less so given its apparent distaste for you. ᛝ ᛝ It seems you are intended to take it somewhere. ᛝ
