Question on the Faery Contract move.

Question on the Faery Contract move. Forgive me, as I don’t have the move right in front of me. If someone breaks a promise to the Fae, the Fae gets a string on them. It also gives a couple additional options when spending strings.

Working on the basis that the character has to have broken a promise to spend strings using this move, can the Fae only spend strings gained from broken promises in this manner? If say, the Fae has 3 strings on an NPC and the NPC breaks a promise, giving the Fae 4 strings, can they spend all of those on balancing the scales?

If the latter is true, how would you balance this? Putting it to the MC and the group to decide when the scales have been balanced?

I’m trying to figure out a motive for my Fae character in Monsterhearts. She slept with her crush’s younger brother a year or so ago. What possible motive would a teenage girl have for doing this? I feel like it should have been some twisted way to get closer to the crush, maybe. Thoughts?

I’m playing for my first (non-con) game of Monsterhearts on Tuesday and my skin is the Fae. Any tips, tricks, or advice for playing these characters? How do you get people into promises or play them up in game?
