IMHO, we can know it by IC, but not too much as we know it OOC. For example, We know that Althea and Eddie had an argument in Staff table, we didn't know what happen to them and what things that make them had argument
Haha. That was just an example.
Yeah. That's what I'm talking about. Exactly, absolutely yes.

Some RPers have been known to pop their charrie in the general vicinity of things especially to overhear, so that is another avenue.
edit: as for the staff table thing. lol. sure could have heard about it, there were plenty who did overhear it, but if your charrie wasn't at the staff table they might have seen, but not heard. Otherwise they'd have to find out what happened (imperfectly lol) from someone who was there to listen in.
Given that example with Thea and Eddie, is it really then necessary to ask the RPers? What if they don't mention anything about the people around in their posts? Can't we just assume that there are other people around? Well..exception to some places such as the cupboard and RoR, which you can call private. But..what if the RP happens in the Great Hall or the Courtyard?
