That's thrilling. I'm impressed. Really, color me awed. Now if you are
completely finished flying off the handle perhaps you will allow me to
get a word in. Whaddya say sugar, take a deep breath and read something,
it might clear matters up.

A character deeply established into most of your plotlines hired one of
my characters to investigate a BIG list of people and places and Serenity
was one of the items on that list. Therefore to freak Serenity right the
fuck out my character sent a few nonsensical messages in their direction.

Clearly it worked, Serenity's interest was peaked, at least enough to
send someone to kill the decoy Xya would have sent which would have told
her to pursue another route.

For someone who supposedly operates characters in the shadows you show a
REMARKABLE lack of ambition for following up mysterious leads.

And as for the rest of your "must be cleared with" crap. Clear this!
Occasionally things will go on that YOU will not be in on. Get used to
it. It does NOT mean that anyone is operating your characters or your
creations without your permission. It means you've done a good job
creating a character or a plot so interesting that someone else wants in
on it so bad they hire a third party to get them there.
