Yeah, when people are drafted, they always show up and serve.  At no point does anyone have any chance to avoid it or otherwise refuse to serve.

morriswalters:
To preface, that wasn't intended as a personal attack or comment on your character, and if you feel it was than you have my sincere apologies.  But most people did go.  Because sometimes it is harder not to.  As in the book those choices all have a price tag, and sometimes the risk of death was less than the personal costs of refusing.

Jim said that Maeve hadn't been fulfilling her duties and Molly had about 100 years of work to complete.....  So there is a way for them to avoid their duties.

KipIngram:
I think whether or not Molly is "human" or not anymore depends on how you define human.  I'd assume her anatomy is all the same, (click to show/hide)in spite of the fact that the "best parts" are apparently now off limits.
 In fact, that itself implies that her reproductive system still works, and that she could still conceive a child with a mortal human.  Otherwise the heavy-handed "magical barricade" to such activities wouldn't be necessary.
We do know that she's immortal now, but I'm not sure if I've gotten that directly from the books or from "informed statements" from online.

Biologically the Sidhe are just humans. They can after all breed with humans and that defines a species.
