Lunch, and GOSSIP!
Hello, fritterlings. Carrie here, sans lunch, because the lunch was a lie. I just wanted to quote MST3K. Ten points to anyone who knows which episode that line is from!
Anyway. Two orders of business.
Order the First: There is still quite a bit of backdating going on as we approach this crossover event, and I know several of us are getting pretty overwhelmed. In the interest of mitigating that, the other mods and I are fully on board with the idea of another calendar freeze while we try and get caught up. Since we don't want to bork the crossover or ask another community to cool their collective heels while we play catch-up, we'd keep the Dreaming chugging along until our party post goes up at the end of the month, but the waking world calendar could halt anytime.
What are your thoughts on this? How much time do you anticipate needing? Personally, given our general propensity for backdating into infinity and the busy holiday season, I don't think it would be at all unreasonable to keep things in stasis into January, but I also don't want those of us who aren't struggling to get bored.
Order the Second: Given how much is going on, this seems like a great opportunity for an OOC gossip post. What have your characters been up to? What, if anything, do you have planned for their near futures? Let's all get caught up on everyone else's business! This could also be used for some future plotting; we can throw our non-busy characters at one another while we let the busy ones get back up to speed.
So! This is a lot to respond to, so to keep things tidy, there will be two mod header comments below, one for the freeze and one for gossip. Reply to either one as needed.

As a player, I need reassurance that I really am the only one who cares if I handwave Andrew's pregnancy stuff to happen ahead of IC schedule; I'm already kind of going to need to do that due to the date ratio change but with Moar Calendar Freeze it's going to jump ahead even more if I don't want to wait half another OOC year for him to have his kids already.
