ANNOUNCEMENTS: Dec 29
Last announcements of the year!!!!! :O

If you have not yet already done so, please post to December's Activity Check! (If you've resolved to drop a character, please do us a favour and let us know here or in the Dropbox so we're not awkwardly emailing you later to be like "hey... what's up...")

January's plot calendar will be posted on Saturday, December 31 at 10 AM Mountain Time. (If you need help figuring out when that will be for you, take a look at the green indicator here.) We've learned our lesson from December, so there will be less IC/OOC's, but hopefully characters will be able to devote proper focus to the ones which are coming up. Three words: Parent-Teacher Conferences.

Happy New Year!!! Here's a little meme for everyone to go out on...

Character Name:
Plans For Next Year: Anything you want to do with your character in the new year? Give us a little sneak peek.
Alternate PB: Was there another PB you almost used? Or a PB for a different incarnation of the character? Or if you had to pick another PB for them, who would it be?
How would that have changed them?: PBs have different moods and feelings, and can change a character a lot. How would your alternate PB have changed your character?
GIF: YOU CAN POST TWO GIFS, in case you want to show a side by side of the alternate PB and the canon PB.

Character Name: Jacob Wood
Plans For Next Year: ACTUALLY PLAY HIM. (Sara's insanely fast writing speed can be attributed to him seeming semi-active in ic/oocs.) I especially want to interact more with Casey and stop being such a terrible bro. More awkward flirting with Isaiah?? Also continue to slowly refine his icons with stuff that's actually appropriate to how he plays since his icons drive me crazy.
Alternate PB: I started concepting him prior to the mud wrestling event with his "Mouthy Ravenclaw know-it-all 'taking a year off Quidditch'." tagline and was leaning towards Josh Zuckerman, but wasn't entirely sold. And then he took his shirt off with Casey and things got a lot more bromantic and Luke Pasqualino was mostly a self-inguldent choice because I love his face.
How would that have changed them?: He'd just be a full time angry nerd with no faux broing and less benefit of being hot. And no Italian heritage. But he'd probably be less sarcastic and more just boiling quietly under the surface since Josh Zuckerman is way too cute and nice looking? He'd also probably be less gay for Casey. Maybe not.

	You thinking I'm insanely fast is making me love you a lot. I JUST REALLY THINK TORTURING ISAIAH WITH A CUTE BOY IS FUNNY. also luke pasqualino is perfect in all ways, never apologize for this choice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

YOU ARE. And I love it. (And the fact you don't seem to mind how slow I am???) I AM ALSO TERRIBLE AND ENJOY TORTURING JACOB WITH A CUTE BOY. So we're all good.

I kind of figured Jacob would get paired with Isaiah when I tossed him into the Amortentia pool but actually discovering they had ZERO overlap was just too hilarious?

Also, apparently they're filming a series together so have a cute picture.

	LIKEWISE. "I really need to interact more with Casey" is a thought that crosses my mind like.. every time I see Casey. Which was not supposed to be corrected by having Ursula interact more with Casey. BUT WE'LL FIGURE IT OUT. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	OMG. I had no idea she was feeling thirsty until then. I DUNNO HOW SHE WILL FEEL ONCE BREAK IS OVER. But... it's very possible. She probably deserves to make it onto the Most Repressed lists. (Reply to this) (Parent)
