Taanit 21b:15 describes Abba having fees left out of sight so that people without money would not be embarrassed. This story draws on that consideration and changes the setting to voluntary contributions at a community craft gathering whose supplies are already covered by a shared fund. Jin, Ara, the participants, the envelopes, the screen, the gathering and all dialogue are fictional.
