This is unexpected.
Is the element of surprise part of the idea?
Perhaps--it was more so the last time.
[Pentap, pentap.]
Perhaps we ought to be flattered.

That would be the path leading to the least strife though I would like to know who wrote the lines at the bottom
I'll say! You break one table at a bar and suddenly you're on sale for the masses like a piece of meat!
If I have this right [and you can bet he read that twice and thrice over] it's for a good cause, no?
I doubt this is any kind of punishment!
Are you content with being paraded to the public, having coins tossed at you like cattle instead of being approached and asked out in person? Hmmmm?
Of course, it also compels us to deliver on the promise of the game, and devote the time to those who 'acquire' us.

Some lack the courage of a direct approach.
So you are of the opinion that ends justify means?

They didn't ask your permission, stranger?
If the goal is worthy enough. You had no say in your fate, though, I gather? That might change the slant of things.
I am called Huo; and as it stands, I start to wonder whose permission they did in fact ask.
I'm Rauxes, and they did ask mine. I thought it was a game - I know how auctions go, but this sort of blind bidding was new to me.
Alas, no; here I am, taken unknowing, and far from the only one. I wonder how they plan to persuade all of us to give the bidders the time they buy.
The definition of game has very lax borders here in Edensphere.
I reckon the goodness of your heart and the rightness of their cause comes into play at that point. I don't know this custom, but it seems familiar to some, and they take it lightly enough.
Is it an unpleasant thought, then?

Definitions themselves are rather lax here.
If this is the custom, what can any of us do? But no, it's unanticipated - I cannot tell what I have to offer that is of such monetary worth - but not unpleasant.

That is well-said; if I may be so bold as to ask, have you been here long, gui-Rauxes?
Refuse, I suppose. Not that I should talk, maybe, since I'm not on the list.
If someone finds your time worth their investment, maybe it's proper to discuss the use of that time with them, then.
[Long pause. Then hasty writing, dashed almost at once.]
It feels sacrilegious, even if he gave his leave. Truth to tell, I'm just not thinking about it. Even if you'd advise otherwise, I know.

Smoke didn't tell you? Sheesh.
Not very long, Mr. Huo, but I've had a few strange things happen to me in my short time here.
I've already learned that 'falling' is not what I'd imagined. Much like if walking was not done with your feet.
[Among other things she's no longer stupid enough to mention on the journals]
