The following characters are close to reaching the activity limit and have forty-eight hours to either post or ask for a hiatus/semi hiatus! We’re always happy to work with you if you come to us. Please remember that there is a hiatus channel in the discord, so you’re welcome to let us know there if you can’t be online. Or you can just message the main and we’ll mark it down! Things can easily get lost in the main discord chat, so please don’t inform us of hiatuses there.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LILY POTTER, LOUIS WEASLEY & PIPPA KRUM !!

— the banners read. It’s Saturday, 19th of August. The Burrow—-fitted with all the extensions that Arthur and their children were able to persuade Molly The Elder to add over the years, bless them—-is the place to be, with festivities extending to the grass field outside and the pop up pavilion housing tables full of drinks and snacks.

The party-planners (Molly The Younger (though Grandma Molly certainly butted in—ahem, provided—input at times), Victoire, Tariq & all the assorted family members and friends they dragged in to help pull everything together) have finished, and everything looks ready for fun, from the fairy lights strung through the trees to the chocolate fountain in the corner, topped with miniature figurines of Pippa, Louis and Lily, posed in their most dramatic fashion. There’s a projection reel on the side of the shed, going through countless photos of the three, submitted by friends and family, and the live band ( LIQUID MERCURY, Louis’ favourite band, the Wixen World’s first all-Squib band, who’ve worked professionally with Audrey Weasley’s advocacy groups ) setting up and starting playing. Thanks to George Weasley and some input from Molly, Freya & Noah, there’s a temporary lake of sorts, with bioluminescent charms for lighting (to celebrate the end of summer even at night), found behind the Burrow and hidden from view, and a canvas set up for guests to paint on.

It’s the end of summer celebrations before they go back to Hogwarts, and you are invited.

WELCOME TO THE END OF SUMMER BIRTHDAY BASH !!

Congratulations, EM, you have been accepted for MAYA JOHNSON with the face claim of DIAMOND WHITE! Ahhhh, we’re so excited to have Maya here! We loved the way you wrote your app —- it gave us a really well-rounded sense of the character and was such an enjoyable read. Her family is fascinating —- I’m really excited to see her interact with her cousins and their cousins (and the familial relationships just keep going) too, but my favourite part of her family set up is learning about her parents. It’s so easy to see how they both contributed into the driven girl she is. It was great to hear about why she chose her particular strain of the internship to apply to —- both in terms of what she wants to achieve through her internship but also how the seeds were sown, way back when, at her father’s job. I can’t wait to see the band in action and for Maya to continue to tell her stories, as her mother said. Welcome to HOLOCENE, we’re so excited to have you here! Your requests for MAYA to be involved with the SHACKLEBOLT INTERNSHIP PROGRAM and  RAVENCLAW SEEKER and CAPTAIN have been accepted. Please send in your account to the main by twenty-four hours or send us a message if you need more time. Make sure that your theme is accessible and that your characters’ name, house, gender, year, and pronouns are stated somewhere in the description. Remember that your second character can be on a sideblog if you’d like, but we do not allow MUMU blogs.

Hi anon!

Short answer, yes! We’ve heard everyone’s feedback about the cap and new acceptances and have made a decision. We’re having a closed acceptance (so only for members currently in the group) this weekend, and then the next acceptance after that (date tbd) will be open to new applicants, because we have a few open spaces. We’ll keep you updated for when that acceptance will be, but it’ll probably be set for right before they head back to Hogwarts.

I hope that helps!

For your reference, the current time stamp is Monday, Aug 14 2023 - Saturday 19 2023. All starters made between now and the next time stamp will be set during this in-character week, unless specifically set at a previous time (please note: we ask that you do not set threads beyond the time stamp, and instead wait for that week to come, because of any potential plot drops, events or developments that may affect that. You’re completely welcome to do any plotted flashback threads, though! Just make sure to date them so people know.) Note: this week is shortened because the party event is taking place IC on Saturday. Please refrain from setting any threads at evening/night on Saturday 19th in order to ensure they don’t clash with the party event.

Congratulations, MEGAN, you have been accepted for LORCAN SCAMANDER with the face claim of BOOBOO STEWART! It’s so rare that both of the Scamander twins are taken in a roleplay, sadly, and not only am I so happy to have them both here, I’m honestly so excited to see more of Lorcan and Lysander’s dynamic on the dash! From what you’ve mentioned in their app about the twins complementing each other so wonderfully, I can already tell that I’ll be in love with the family dynamic. Moreover, your interpretation of Lorcan is so unique. I hardly ever see a Slytherin Scamander, much less one who’s always a werewolf. I can’t wait to see more of Lorcan! Welcome to HOLOCENE, we’re so excited to have you here! Your requests for LORCAN to be a SLYTHERIN PREFECT and a SLYTHERIN BEATER have been accepted. Please send in your account to the main by twenty-four hours or send us a message if you need more time. Make sure that your theme is accessible and that your characters’ name, house, gender, year, and pronouns are stated somewhere in the description.

Congratulations, JINX, you have been accepted for RILEY GOLDSTEIN with the face claim of MARGARET QUALLEY! As someone who is Jewish, I always love seeing Jewish characters, and honestly I can already tell you’ve put so much more thought into the Goldstein family than JK Rowling ever did. I loved reading all of the little details in her biography because it really fleshed-out her character, and your second headcanon about how she and her mother reconnected with their Jewish heritage after so long really touched me. I’m so excited to see more of the Goldstein/Kowalski family on the dash! Welcome to HOLOCENE, we’re so excited to have you here! Please send in your account to the main by twenty-four hours or send us a message if you need more time.

Congratulations, EL, you have been accepted for SAHAR KOWALSKI with the face claim of ODEYA RUSH! El, we completely love her. It’s so cool to have an exchange student here at Hogwarts this year —- we have a few transfers from various schools (including one from Ilvermorny) and we’re excited to explore exchanges! I adored her relationship with intelligence & intellectualism, and how she just can’t quite manage it, no matter how hard she tries. It was great hearing about her life in NYC and I’m super excited to see her start Quodpot club —- and, of course, how she slots in with all the students here. Welcome to HOLOCENE, we’re so excited to have you here! Your request for SAHAR to be SLYTHERIN RESERVE CHASER has been accepted. Please send in your account to the main by twenty-four hours or send us a message if you need more time. Make sure that your theme is accessible and that your characters’ name, house, gender, year, and pronouns are stated somewhere in the description. Remember that your second character can be on a sideblog if you’d like, but we do not allow MUMU blogs. (Sahar will be filling Lily Potter’s girl gang connection. This connection is now closed with this acceptance until further notice.)
