I'm guessing this is a comfort thing? I have attempted to write trans characters before, but it's hard for me to do them justice without relying on common tropes and stereotypes.
I'm going to step on a lot of toes, but usually if someone is RPing a trans character and is very heavily invested in such things it generally will imply they perceive characterization far different than myself and what I value in characters. This usually extends further outwards to worldbuilding, what I find interesting, and so on.
Now, speaking more to the topic of discussion... I've been in a situation before where, to my surprise, the character I was playing with is suddenly revealed to be trans. I went with it and kept the roleplay moving forward, but my character was clearly not okay with the sudden developments. This bled into OOC and caused more trouble than I'm willing to even entertain as a possibility in the future.
