I just don't dig on TWECHBY because it implies that the archetype is 
available but not available to the observer.  Really she wouldn't be 
available to anyone since being with anyone would diminish her availability. 
  this seems to fit well with Amoremancy and I just don't like anyone 
getting two kinds of mojo for the price of one.
