It's one thing to get permission to reboot something or recreate it, it's another to get a no and basically tell the person that told you no to go fuck themselves by doing it anyway.

If your excuse to do it is "IC =/= OOC" then kindly go fuck yourself. Seen this happen twice today, once to me personally and it's annoying and disrespectful to no fucking end. I don't care how you romanticize or rationalize it; it's plagiarism.

Don't do the thing.
