<li>AFP and Hammered Silver have regular meetings until Abt 2300</li>
<li>As Motes gets more public Hammered Silver starts skipping meetings, eventually says “I don’t agree with Motes and I don’t want to talk about it”</li>
<li>her feelings are that there are children and there are adults, that this is what makes a mother a mother to someone, but Motes is her, so she can’t be a child; she’s appropriating child-ness. Add in the family dynamic with AFP and Bee, including their relationship, and Hammered Silver is really fucking mad</li>
<li>Hammered Silver cuts contact with fifth over Sasha joining ALDR</li>
<li>when Dry Grass continues seeing Motes (who she met via Warmth, worked with it on systech integration for oneirotecture), Hammered Silver sends Motes an angry letter Abt “stop talking to Dry Grass, you’re an abomination etc etc” all HOA president having a fit</li>
<li>Motes goes to AFP and Beholden with note: not going to stop talking to Dry Grass, not going to stop being herself, but wants to know how to deal with the pain.</li>
<li>AFP wants to be careful because this is a post True Name, post Qoheleth world, asks Sasha and Dry Grass if she needs to worry, both say no, confirmed by Waking World, who explains that Hammered Silver is just having a tantrum. She doesn’t really care if anything changes, she doesn’t even want it to, she doesn’t want to win an argument, really, she just wants the other person to hurt</li>
<li>AFP messages Hammered Silver, saying “that really hurt Motes and it really hurt me etc etc”, letting it get to her enough to make it believable</li>
<li>Hammered Silver, as predicted, gets all snooty and proud, agrees to go back to no contact, leaving Motes alone, etc. Cuts off Dry Grass who thinks “eh, no big loss there”</li>
<liclass="done4"> The dynamic between Dry Grass and Hammered Silver is very “uh huh sure okay whatever you say” but doesn’t actually change anything; does this finally change after the argument?</li>
<liclass="done3"> Waking World has made it his job to keep Hammered Silver on a leash; maybe a second conversation after? The first conversation through Dry Grass (“oh yeah, WW says Hammered Silver can’t do shit, she’s just looking to make you feel bad”)</li>
