Ana -- I still disagree with the logic in some of Athena's decisions, but I'm content to let those matters drop for now, so that we can move forward in the game.  (Happy may grumble a bit, but he'll cooperate with her.)<br/><br/>It looks to me like Athena expects to decide, or at least approve, every major action of the team members when they're on a mission.  That's okay with me, if that's how you want to play her approach to leadership.  However, I'm not so comfortable with you, Ana, deciding on your own what Athena will order Happy to do or not do.  If I'm not involved in those decisions, it seems to me that I'm not in control of what my character does.  And routinely solving such disagreements in the thread itself doesn't work for me, because having Happy protest or disobey orders routinely would be out of character for him.  Similarly, having him suggest IC what he thinks he ought to do is pointless if Athena is just going to overrule him.<br/><br/>I hope you see the dilemma for me, as a player.  I don't think it needs to be a problem as long as we can discuss Athena's orders to Happy here in the OOC,<span class="bbc_u">in advance</span>.  I'll try to get your cooperation in advance whenever I want him to do something that might require Athena's approval.  Okay?  Let me know if that doesn't work for you.  Thanks.  :)
