Nooo, that doesn't seem to awkward at all! Thanks for letting me know, I will definitely touch base with you. The last thing I want to do is to make you anxious, I totally get that IC arguments can be stressful. I have a tendency to play argumentative characters and you absolutely are not the first person who OOCly expressed that they'd rather not engage in that way. That kind of thing isn't fun for everyone and I totally respect that. Above all, we're here to have a good time and I would never want to mess that up for anyone.

Tabitha responding politely and to the point is perfect to keep this in check, honestly. You know how people say that if a bully can't get a rise out of you that they get bored and move on? That might not work for EVERY bullyish character but it definitely works when it comes to Rox. If she can't get a rise out of Tabitha then she'll get bored trying to egg her on very quickly. Being that they've known one another for several years, she probably even knows by now that Tabitha won't give her the reaction she's looking for and she might just leave her alone for the most part altogether. Please don't be afraid to let me know if I'm ever making you uncomfortable, that is literally never my intention!

I really appreciate your understanding! I'm only a couple of games back into RP after my break and even now I find it hard to play certain types of characters. A player took offence when a couple of people weren't fawning over her character and any arguments IC made her complain and say people were picking on her - and one of her best friends was a mod who got us all kicked out of the game! So that was not fun at all. I am very reachable via email and aim though, so contact and conversation about plot is definitely possible. I will go and read your girl's bio now because I need to do that for all the newest chars, and then I need to go and work on my Coppertale junior...

Oh boy, I've run into more than a few people like that over the years myself. It's awful! I'm excited for you to read her info because I'm sure you'll see why Tabitha incites such strong feelings in her. It's way more to do with Roxie's own issues and insecurities than it has anything at all to do with Tabitha herself. Rox sees her more as a symbol representing the things she's rebelled against than she sees her as an actual person which is her own problem. It's definitely nothing that Tabitha's done wrong or anything she deserves!

I'm so looking forward to your Coppertale junior, btw. I read what you said about him when you were talking to Marin about Sy and he sounds like he's gonna be a great addition.

	In short, there are plenty of people out there who really suck! I would be happy to pass on the link to his WIP if anyone wants to be nosy and discuss plot ideas :) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	EXACTLY! Maybe she'll grow up and out of it someday, who knows?! I am SO nosy and that would make my day. YES PLEASE! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Wowza, he is EXACTLY what this bunch of brutes (minus Reid lol) needs! I have this visual in my head where the Coppertales are a team of dogs trying to pull a sled and they're all running furiously in opposite directions. They could totally benefit from someone who's able to subtly pull them together. Rox is way more accepting of suggestions than she is of direct orders, he seems clever enough that he'd be capable of redirecting her without her really noticing. I'm sure he'll see a lot of success in that same way with others!

	Muhahaha, etc! Let's hope he stays that way when I've finished his history! He had to be prefect for a reason ;) (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Well, Dom IS from a reasonably snowy bit of Canada, so it works..? XD (He's done and submitted too, woo!) (Reply to this) (Parent)
