"Roleplaying"/In-character in the normal gameplay?

Hi there!
I'm a new face in Fallen London, and I enjoy the game greatly, especially that you can tweak the character's traits by the choices you make. This has made me very immersed in my two characters.
However, a thing that confuses me is that what is the, how to say, "in character" culture here, for example with social actions? Is it usual to send some kind of in-character/roleplaying-ish note with social act requests, or am I viewed as a creep if I do so? Since in my head I have pretty accurate impressions of my characters, it would be incredibly fun to so! But I kinda want to know how people usually do here.
I tried to read posts here to get some idea, and indeed here is some IC:ish action going on. However, I didn't dare to be sure, since I'm not a native English speaker and I wasn't sure if I have got the tones right.
Sooooo are in-platform "roleplaying" and Fallen London buddies?

Indeed, and there may be any amount of elaboration in the sort of In-character things you do with social actions. For example, my own character is a member of the Young Stags, a club known for it's pranking. Well, three days before I was to lose access to the House of Chimes, I sent an invite to absolutely everyone on my contact list (150+ players!) to fulfill an elaborate scheme for setting all the clocks in London wrong! Still my all-time favorite moment in FL.
