[@Scio]

Sorry, I wasn't phrasing my issue with the post properly, but what you said is exactly my complaint. The way the post was written states the information as an absolute fact when Mikhail should rightly not have enough knowledge at the moment to confirm this.

I mentioned that I have no problem with Mikhail suspecting, guessing, surmising, concluding, etc. so long as it's a character's guess based on IC actions. Thus, I was on the fence about the matter as a whole.

It's not horribly metagaming, I agree, [@Riffus Maximus]. But the narration gives Mikhail information he shouldn't rightly [i]know[/i] with objective certainty, which bothers me greatly.

Anyway, sorry for the trouble, guys. Thanks for putting up with it!
