Just gotta say that the Neverseen didn't give Tam a choice. He didn't join and has no intention of joining. However the Neverseen tries to manipulate Tam I believe that he won't abandon his friends or his sister. They, after all, are a reason for him to hope the twins pejuduce will be lessened as the leader himself is a twin and his friends don't carry that predjudice either. Using the predjudice to sway Tam to the Neverseen would not be effective. I would see him staying to act as a spy and to mislead the Neverseen until he found an oppurtunity to escape, as Keefe tried to.

However, Tam's situation differs from Keefe's in that there is no precedence that Tam wants to work with the Neverseen, so the Neverseen will have no reason to trust him (they only half trusted Keefe anyways). I'm very curious to see how this will play out in the next book.

Basically, I don't think the Tam will ever JOIN the Neverseen but he may stay with them to give the Black Swan an advantage.
