... Oh right. I made this to comment: I enjoy that Ruby is, just happily enough chatting to Jane all 'surely, everyone can talk about their special interests, right? Even if those interests are bugfuck nuts.'
Also: Playing a character who is so... ignorant to mental health stuff is a challenge sometimes. Because I just want to take her to the side and go 'ruby no that's... no'.
Me: Ruby why Ruby: My mental health education is on par with that of a 10 year old with google because if I do any in depth research I have to actually confront the fact that I am severely mentally ill, and I literally don't know how to process that. Me: Good reason I guess???
(I'm sorry, guys. My memory is patchy, and when I remember one thing, suddenly all the vaguely related things pop up wanting attention, while I forget what else I was doing.)
She adapted like a fish to water with the 'can use device without ever touching it' part. She's still learning how to take pictures with her eyes. She put extra effort into learning because it's a good tool. It can be a way to protect herself, and to collect evidence of events!
it's GOOD STUFF and I tend towards characters who tend towards it. brandon "I just want family" heat, big bro nicholas d. wolfwood, It's Complicated father figure askeladd

Worry not friend! Health comes first. Which would you be more comfortable with? Will you be able to safely meet AC this month and next if we thread, or would chatting it out be better?
Anyway, the thing I was reminded of.

Ruby's going to contact her bosses through their official channels all 'Hey so someone may be plotting to kill me in the near future. Can I ask that my patrols be outside of Maurtia Falls for a while? And I guess I should maybe ask for a night off to focus study. History test coming up.'
If she doesn't sound that bothered, it's because she's not that bothered, but she figured she should like, let her bosses know. (Upon further inquiries she'd be all 'Oh, yeah. Archer's the guy. He doesn't like that I'm dating Nikolai or something like that. Told Niko that if I put Niko in any danger then he'll get me out of the picture. Nothing serious.')
Oh! I didn't know that, I apologise. I do think she's pretty sure he's just sneaking around being himself. She admittedly thinks he's a shape shifter thanks to cass having been batman? The idea of it being two different people with the same identity was too plausible XD
Woof: I'm pretty sure this is your scarf. Kid: Huh? No it's not. Woof: ... Yes it is. Kid: ??? Woof: [does not want the random child to freeze but also will not be caught giving a gift]
Oh worry not. I'm Archer's player. He isn't actually going to kill her. (It would be sort of useless to kill an import anyway.) But I am so down with him getting shit for this :3c
(I'm going to be having Ruby get her first death by way of an accident, and figured this would be a great time for a misunderstanding that will allow Niko to do something his Author has wanted to do for a while. The best part is that archer and Ruby never even end up in the same room.)
(Ruby: intentionally stays away from Archer because Niko said he's a dangerous man and she don't want any of that shit Archer: merely snoops on her info as much as he does Nikolai's other CR, because he's not planning anything specific at this point)

Is this accurate?
Ruby is ridiculous, and I'm glad he enjoys that about her, too.
and now we know what next stupid thing AU!Niko spends their yen on...Niko noNiko: shit he wants to kill my girlfriend!
Archer: merely snoops on her info as much as he does Nikolai's other CR, because he's not planning anything specific at this point)
