Not only didn't I partake in the guesting process, the other ajahs I considered back then have changed a lot, so the reasons I didn't go with them wouldn't be valid today. The browns have changed too, as have I, but since I've been changing with Brown it doesn't bother me.

The ajahs I considered all those years ago were Blue and Red. I decided quite soon that I wouldn't feel at home with the Blues and since I liked the idea of bonding some day the final decision was Brown. Looking back, I can't imagine why I considered anything else other than Brown. Even though I still have a huge Red streak, I am Brown.
