no. it is not at all reasonable to expect people who play from a specific, distilled iteration of canon to be aware of the nine billion characters populating a completely different and sprawling version of canon. fuck, it isn't reasonable to expect another 616 player to be aware of that one issue deep in an obscure branch of a giant crossover event that occurred in 1985, their character shared a sandwich with yours.

if you want someone to be aware of your character who doesn't even exist in their version of canon/crossed paths with theirs once but is from a largely separate part of the universe, talk to them oocly, don't just pounce on them and then pout because their reaction is confusion instead of the excitement you're clearly expecting.
