Reposition from Defense Expertise Chart With Strained Token

[脸黑的饿货]

Barriss Offee has a Strained Token on her and defends. Her Defense Dice rolls contain 2 Expertise results which grant her a Reposition. Then, when she needs to resolve the Reposition -

a) She may choose not to resolve the effect;

b) She must resolve the Reposition but does not move physically - however, since she needs to resolve the effect, she would suffer 3 damages from the Strained token and then remove it.

Which one is correct?

Well, probably we find out the correct answer ourselves...

The Reposition must be added to the resolving queue, however, the effect itself allows the Player choose to Advance or not since there is a "may" in use.

In other words, Barriss must resolve the Reposition, but may choose not to Advance, and therefore does not suffer damages from the Strained token - and if she does not Advance, she also may not remove the condition token.

I think this is the right way?

This is correct, yes.
