I don't know if this is cross talk. It only happens when applying a pose for a parented item (and gets redirected to the parent as well) In some respects, it is preferable behavior. For me, the pose applies to both figures with a single click. Unlike cross talk (at least the way I understood it) these figures do have some reason to inherit their behavior from one another. I guess it is the same as applying a standard pose accidentally while the garment is selected and the figure gets posed (though not exactly as it would have had the pose been applied directly to the correct figure) eric
