I would choose A. Have done so many times, and have made many friends that way.
I have to say, those are my most loyal friends, too. Now when I go to Tormenta, I usually have many of them with me, and now that they are bigger, they don't need as much help.
But I never get even a little yellow before at least 4 dolls attune and heal me.
Sometimes it pays to adopt a newbie.
