It wasn't just the guild machinations last time, love. Also the desire to have someone able to deal sensibly with chaos handy in case there was chaos. (Which there wasn't, but since the only planning for chaos that seems to work is assuming that there will be some, and being delighted when there isn't, that isn't much help.)
As to our party, you know I'm happy with more open. And really, Spence is big enough that one can hope that the people who don't want to talk to each other can politely avoid each other. (This may be a wrong sort of hope, but I have a few illusions left. Apparently.)
You thought more about inviting the students in the challenge, and whether we want any others? Or how that changes the overall list for the party? I think my issue is not so much with the inclusion part of this (I am a badger), but with the part where it necessitates at least some exclusion, because clearly, we are not having the entire Protectorate over for drinks and dessert.
