Pondering Miss Smoke, and Rocky, and Pebble, and the alert dolls, and the serpent yarn, and summonable demons, and familiars, and mental and emotional manipulation, and ... I have philosophical, moral, and/or ethical questions. Where are the lines between "people" (ill-defined) and very fancy tools ("things")? (Possibly variable by perspective or loudly disagreed about.)
Miss Smoke and her cauldron were available for sale (with only one local prospective buyer when Miss Smoke was defined as a witch's assistant).
Gren says Rocky needs a keeper and to be given tasks, but Rocky can also want things for itself, and design and implement them.
What is the demon & summoner relationship? I don't think it's appeared on the page yet, but mental influence of the summoner on the demon has been mentioned, as well as (Tartarus) demons being manipulative.
@kelkyag
Gren thinks of Rocky as similar to a working dog: will not do well without things to do and will not do well without someone to look after it.
Cassie regarded the alert dolls in a similar light, though alert dolls generally have less autonomy than Rocky. But the Magnus-doll came out with more than usual.
Cassie regarded Miss Smoke as a person, leading to Cassie telling Miss Smoke on the day she got the cauldron that Cassie would help Miss Smoke leave if she wanted to go.
Cassie treats Miss Smoke as a person, albeit one with a very focused job; I'm curious how Miss Smoke's bond with Cassie compares with Blackpaw's. Anna seemed to think of Miss Smoke as part of the cauldron, a tool. The demon who sold the cauldon to Anna (and possibly made it), probably similar, though maybe demons have rather different views on personhood? (Miss Smoke also seems to be gaining capabilities at a good clip, though is that learning and growing, or powering up with use?)
<rereads> I misremembered: an adventurer brought Anna the cauldron from the Strange. They probably didn't think of Miss Smoke as a person, if they noticed her at all. Someone(s) presumably made and/or enchanted the cauldron, which may've included bringing Miss Smoke into being. Or maybe magical beings spontaneously appear in the Strange. Demons seem to have children, but the mechanical folks in the Strange ...?
@kelkyag Okay, it's really weird that both of us thought a demon had sold Miss Smoke's cauldron to Bits & Bobs. o_o
Miss Smoke: *chooses not to share how she came to be or why she's with the cauldron*
