Hey fam! So it looks like it’s time for a bit of spring cleaning! A couple of our members are dropping some of their characters for a bit of extra breathing room! It’s been a tough year for everyone, and we don’t want anyone to feel too spread thin while they’re here, so for the time being, we’ll be saying goodbye to Lissy McCall, Enoch Lynch, and Caleb Lynch-Esmaeili.

All bios will be closed and moved over to the NPC list, where they could be picked up again in the future if anyone so desired! Lissy will remain a current resident of 22, and Alex and Nicola have decided that Caleb will have brought Enoch back to Colony 12 to reunite with family. 

Sorry to see some of these lovely characters go, but excited to spend more time with all ya’lls other characters! <3

Much love!

So first of all, Maddie and I are so thrilled with how exciting the dash has been lately! It’s nice to have everyone pretty much back from hiatus, and seeing all the refreshed excitement! Also thank you to those of you who’ve reached out about looking for FC changes for diversity! We’re excited for the new and potential-new faces on the dash!

Next up, and possibly most importantly, a HUGE warm welcome (back) to Juliette, who has returned to us with Bode Levy Bram Lindqvist, and she has already hit the dash with a thorough bang, which is what we love to see!! Can’t wait to get to more plotting with you, and we’re so happy to have you back Juliette!!

In sadder news, unfortunately Cassie has to pull back from the RP at this time, so we will be unfollowing Mei Zhu Fitrei [x]. Mei Zhu’s bio will remain closed as an NPC for around the Colony, should Cassie ever be able to come back to us! Maisie Pace, who is currently being held in NPC status, will be opened in case we can one day re-complete the CalGal gang <3 It’s truly so sad to say goodbye to one of our longest running members, (dating back all the way to Belvedere days!) but Cassie is in the heat of becoming a fancy-pants lawyer, and we’re SO SO proud of her! Keep killing it, Cassie, and you’ll always have a home here with us. Keep in touch, love, you’ll be dearly missed!! <3

On the bright side, Maddie and I are so excited by all the new plotting that’s going on, by the healthy dash, and by the new members and characters! It looks like we should be getting another new app soon, too, so we’re waiting (im)patiently in anticipation!

Still working on admin updates, fc changes and other ongoing things in the background, so stay tuned all around, and thanks everyone for your astounding dedication and love <3

Alright, so an update for you all regarding Cassie: since she is an amazing human who is studying for the bar and in the middle of trying to become an even more amazing human, she will unfortunately be going down to only one character to help her keep up with activity. For the time being, she will be dropping Maisie Pace, so you can unfollow her now. It’s a gut punch to see Maisie go of course, but a much better alternative to losing Cassie entirely! 

Maisie will be moved over to the NPC list (which I have updated and reorganized to be a little clearer & more helpful), and her bio will remain closed as a current resident at the Colony. With any luck, Cassie will be able to pick her up again in the future, but for the moment she’s having to do a bit of downsizing! She should be back in action with Mei Zhu within the next couple of days!

We love you Cassie and are happy you’re doing what you need to to make your time at the Colony more comfortable!! 

Otherwise I think that’s all the updates I have for now! There’ve been a number of lurkers on the main lately, and a couple of questions—if anyone is thinking about joining the community, now is a good time to do so as I still have time before I go back to work, to assist with any applications, questions or requests! :)

Okay, love you all, I should be hitting the dash for a bit shortly!

Got a few updates for you today. First of all, unfortunately the lovely Jules will be leaving us. The bio for Bode Lindvist will be reopened, and we wish Jules the best with everything going forward. Also, Lou (Clove Modius, Draco Pavlovic) will be on semi-hiatus until the 16th December as he’s got some important deadlines coming up. Wish him luck! That’s all I’ve got for you today. I hope everyone is feeling merry and bright. With the weather being so cold and the nights so long it can be a difficult time of year so take care of yourselves, and please reach out if we can do anything to make things easier for you!

xx Maddie

Unfortunately we will be saying goodbye to Ellie for the time being. Ellie, it’s been so, so wonderful to have you around the Colony, and we really certainly miss your sweet, earnest energy in the community! You and your babes will be so, so missed, and we home that one day you find your way back to us when things settle down for you! Much love!
