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.

doubts your commitment to Sparkle Motionis still working for ROMAC doing all kinds of data entry and data management using modern computers he understands only by dint of being unable to get frustrated and give up on memorizing the various functions by rote. For a while he'd been trying to smite Crowley on principle, but after he found out Lucifer has an interest in Aziraphale and Crowley he decided to put some distance between himself and them and hasn't been back to harass either of them since. He had a rain adventure with Iman in which he learned things about ROMAC that have made him doubt their viability as a source of even temporary authority (someone just tell him what to do please; the last time he made his own decisions he fell from heaven ;__;). He's still not too sure about Iman in general even though they sort of work for the same people now.
