Would've been much more exciting had Triss chosen Amity.


Instead of watching a boot camp movie we could've all thrilled to the sight of an adolescent girl learning farming techniques. Discuss!

No,Candor would have been better. Learning to tell the truth all the time is really complicated and gruelling.

Tris until later did not have the capability for forgiveness. She felt guilt even before killing Will. She did not have it in for her to be Candor. She lied about the test and being sick. She could have chosen Euridite over her own faction, but I think after what her parents said about said their motives, she didn't want to feel like she would have to betray them. She found Dauntless exciting and her own faction she didn't like the fact she had to give up so much to help others and she felt pressure to do the right thing.

I was sorta kinda joking, Sarah. I can't for the life of me think what kind of training you'd need to LEARN to not lie.

You have to be careful with thruth, don't you? It very quickly becomes rude and obnoxious.
Like the people who say, "Hey, at least I'm telling you the truth: you DO look fat in that dress! "

Candor is more like quietly offering someone a breath mint.

HEY, YOUR ZIPPER'S DOWN!!
