As someone not in the game, but following the DC cast, I feel uncomfortable reading a lot of your threads with the bats in particular. I know Steph is supposed to be CRAU, but it feels as if you fall back on that to reflect your OOC preferences at times.

I just wanted to point that out to you, as it can be incredibly unfair to your castmates when you do this.

Thanks for bringing this up, I know I'm still working out the balance between the CRAU and playing with castmates from canon, since there was only a small Batcast in Exsilium.

I'm not 100% sure what you mean by OOC preferences, though? I try not bring anything OOC into how I play my characters (I mean obviously I have like - certain things I like playing but in terms of characterisation/etc I try to keep that divide) so if there's anything in particular you had in mind, you can bring it up with me.

I also know that it can be difficult to play with a CRAU, I had no idea when I tossed my app in that the Batcast was going to be so huge, and I don't want to make anyone uncomfortable. ICly Steph is pretty shaken up by events so she's definitely going to be a little difficult, but she'll even out in a month or so and go back a bit more to her regular self. The thread with Jason was one in particular that took a turn I hadn't been expecting (I was avoiding her finding out about Dick for that reason), and it's something I'd probably do differently a second time around.

But at the end of the day Steph is a CRAU and my aim is to play with that without making anyone else uncomfortable. I'd hope that if any of my castmates had any concerns they'd be willing to bring it up with me, but until then I'll just be trying to keep that balance in mind and try to be as fair as possible to everyone.
