I've been looking through the new Mongrel Mage archetype for Sorcerers in the Advanced Class Guide, and I'm left with a few questions:
1. If a Mongrel Mage chooses the Arcane Bloodline for a day, and selects a Familiar as their Arcane Bond, are they "stuck" with that choice if/when they choose the Arcane Bloodline again on another day? Or could a Mongrel Mage have a Familiar one day, then wake up the next day with a bonded item?
2. On a similar note, does the choice of Familiar stick around? If a Mongrel Mage has a Toad familiar one day, then a few days later they select the Arcane Bloodline again, do they still have a toad, or could they choose to have a Viper?
3. The archetype states:
As a swift action, she can expend 1 point from her mongrel reservoir to activate that bloodline, allowing her to use its 1st-level bloodline powers as well as its bloodline arcana at her full sorcerer level
Does this mean that without spending a point, they get to use the Bloodline Arcana as through they were first level, or that they only get to use the Bloodline Arcana when they spend the point, and at their full level?

1. No.
2. No.
3. You only get the use of Arcana when you spend a point and you get it at their full level.
1. Is that "no, you aren't locked into a particular bond once you've chosen it as a Mongel mage", or "no, you can't go from familiar to bonded item?"
2. Again, is that "no, the familiar doesn't stick around", or "no you can't go from toad to viper"?
