Hi, babes! Unfortunately, we're here with a bit sad but necessary business: an activity check!

All of the admins have noticed that multiple people have not been active for way longer than the limit and/or have not messaged us back about a hiatus update! Meaning, everybody on this list is to be unfollowed and all of the faceclaims of said characters are now reopened. However, it is possible that there may have been a mishap between who is on hiatus and who isn't - so, that being said, if you know for sure that you sent us your hiatus update (because we all know how faulty the tumblr inboxing system is), and will be returning soon, we encourage you to please message us! If we do not receive any messages concerning hiatuses as soon as possible, your faceclaim will remain open and up for grabs to whoever wishes to use them.

PLEASE UNFOLLOW:

Emerson McAdams (Leighton Meester) Henley DuPont (Phoebe Tonkin) Dylan Voss (Nina Dobrev) Salem Ingle (Michael Clifford) Sean Eaver (Adam Levine) Claire Miller (Jenna Louise Coleman) Lucy Dae (Lily Collins) Lily Cooper (Marzia Bisognin) Juliette Pruitt (Taissa Farmiga) Sophia Parker (Holland Roden)

"WE JUST HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS FOR YOU..."

Following what the citizens of Northpoint have already been referring to - discretly, of course - as the Fire & Ice Incident, the Winthrop police have been meeting with citizens to get their takes on the life and death of James Buchanan. It's all run of the mill sort of stuff, but you never know what might be a break in the case, or a cause for suspicion... Details: Tag your responses with nprptask1, please! Please feel free to answer these however you see fit - it can be a third-person self-para sort of response, or first-person 'verbal' responses to each question. Feel free to take liberties and invent your own stories - after all, conflicting stories only help to turn the police in circles.

"How well did you know James Buchanan?" "What were you doing between the hours of two and three thirty on Friday morning? Can anyone confirm this?" "Have you seen anything suspicious around Northpoint, recently? People where they shouldn't be... people not where they should be...?" "Have you ever heard of the Siren Curse?"

It happens, as it does, every year – that is to say, without warning. One evening, Northpoint’s residents retire inside for the evening, trading in the neighborly hustle and bustle of the cold sidewalks for their elaborate table dressings and roaring fires. They put on their nighttime finery and slip into bed, perhaps looking forward to their day off or finishing up that last report for school or work and getting one day closer to the weekend. Alarms are set, eyemasks are applied, and the town waits for dawn. Even that first, weak morning light reveals something… strange. Elaborate ice sculptures have wandered into the town gardens: scenes of whimsy and fantasy, captured in crystal. (Rumor has it, if you’re very patient, you can see them move.) A small sign, propped nearby in the snow, announces that you can add your own bit of artwork to the ice museum – already, excited groups are breaking off, discussing their ideas for this year’s sculpture. No ----- the winter festival came without warning, but that doesn’t mean the good citizens of Northpoint weren’t looking forward to it. The young and the young-at-heart race for the ice rink set up in the town center, where a winter garden complete with gazebos, benches, and twinkling lights beckon at those who need a break from the ice. Elsewhere, Northpoint’s artists and young artists from the university are setting up shop at the small pop-up shots that appeared along the wharfs at the shopping center. From romantic seascapes to edgy political statements, the art market is the perfect excuse to stroll the wharfs with a cup of hot chocolate or coffee (and if you’re with the right company, you might just have a flask to spike it with) from Franco’s or the grocer’s. In the evenings, the hot chocolate is paired with the finest reds and whites for evening wine tastings at Franco’s whilst couples and groups of friends wander and weave and consider the art. Later, faces across Northpoint light up as they find a simple, snow white envelope in their postbox - there's no return address, and only their family names embossed on the front in real gold leaf, an invitation to a ball to be held at the Town Hall. Balls are neither rare nor new in Northpoint, but they are always lavish and allow for all the glamour and drama of eras gone by, all with the trappings of truly opulent wealth. The next evening, whether hungover or fresh as a daisy, townspeople young and old alike drag blankets and sleeping bags to the beach. Known - unofficially, of course - as Fire and Ice, bonfires and fire pits blaze on while flasks, snacks, and stories are shared while the townspeople mingle and celebrate another winter. Though it's a far cry from the quiet celebrations that those first Dutch settlers may have enjoyed, each year's Winter Festival is something to be remembered. So put on your favorite sweater and warmest socks, get looking for the perfect gown or suit, and cozy up to someone special ---- because the festival has come to town!

Last evening, I posted the introduction post to the site-wide subplot, Tome & Grave. Although it centers around students and alumni at Winthrop, there is definitely room for everybody in the town to be involved! So what do you have to do? Firstly, make sure you’re following T&G’s page. Secondly, start thinking up a secret that would connect your character to Tome and Grave: do they have any skills the society would find useful? Or, on the flipside: threatening? I have quite a few ideas myself, so if you’re having trouble thinking of something, just let me know and we can work through it together! And definitely stay tuned for more from this worst-kept Northpoint secret...

Hey folks! I'm putting together a list of triggers for people to tag as I know it can be uncomfortable to tell partners and potential partners about things you need tagged. If you want anything on the list please shoot the main a message (feel free to send it on anon, if you would prefer) letting us know what it is and how severely you need it tagged (all mentions, only if it's graphic, etc). Thank you!

Hey, everyone! I’m posting another quick reminder to please make sure you’re checking the nprpopen tag! This is our starters tag, and just a quick look through shows that many starters have few - if any! - responses. Please try to make time to new starters, and consider responding to some rather than making your own! After all, the best way to develop your character, create plots and relationships across the site, and have the most fun is through responding and replying to other people!

Quick reminder to everyone to please make sure that they are following the tag nprpopen, as well as replying to starters posted there, and posting their own! Make sure you're responding to as many starters as possible (without getting overwhelmed, of course!) - every interaction helps to better form relationships between characters! If you're ever having trouble coming up with a plot, just see what comes out of a seemingly ordinary conversation - you never know what it could start!
