Need a Portkey?

We get that sometimes, real life comes up and you can’t be as active as you might want. All we ask is that you give us a heads up! Please post below with the following form filled out to the best of your ability, and we’ll look forward to seeing you again soon!

Code:

[b]Name:[/b]
[b]Status:[/b] Scarce? Absent? Somewhere in between?
[b]Pass:[/b] Yes or No*
[b]Date Leaving:[/b]
[b]Date Returning:[/b]
[b]About the Absence:[/b] Optional.

*ON PASSES: The Activity Check falls on the first Sunday of each month. If your absence includes AC day, or a large chunk of the time leading up to it, let us know if you want a “pass” for that month—meaning your characters won’t be deactivated in that check. Keep in mind, though—if you’ve made a new character that month, you can’t take a pass except for Dire Life Circumstances™. If you do not post with your characters for 2 months in a row, they will be deactivated, even if a pass is claimed.

Name: Steph
Status: Absent
Pass: Yes
Date Leaving: 9/22 that's a lie, it was earlier
Date Returning: 10/22
About the Absence: My body hates me, and at this point the feeling is mutual. I also feel like this time of year drains my motivation, so I'm letting myself reset and figure out what to keep/revive later when it doesn't feel like I have (entirely self-imposed) pressure.

if I sound peeved, I only got like 2 hours of sleep and woke up in debilitating pain this morning

Name: Emma
Status: Scabsent
Pass: Hopefully No
Date Leaving: 10/1
Date Returning: 10/10 scarce until December
About the Absence: Having an extremely rough go with family stuff. Thought I'd have the capacity for posts while having childcare and I just don't.

ETA: Hubs has decided to volunteer us to host Christmas (a few of you who remember the christmas debacle from last year might be able to tell how thrilled I am by this) so between the infinite amount of parties to attend, the ongoing family drama, I also now have to somehow finish house projects and deep clean the house by mid-December. Kill me please.

Name: Lynn
Status: Absent
Pass: Yes
Date Leaving: Mid-October
Date Returning: Mid-November?
About the Absence: CEO is a dick and I decided to leave so I'm job searching. It's going not-terribly but I am also still working full time and have lots of spooky season social engagements so busy busy busy. Also the cognitive dissonance of having to keep interacting pleasantly with my CEO when I despise him and am in the process of leaving is mentally draining. miss you all terribly and hope to see you soon when I am less burnt out <3

About the Absence: I'll get something posted to plotting, but long story short - this is the last week of my MBA. Everything is due Sunday. The final hurdle in my freaking degree that is worth 90% of the class is due Sunday. And it's event season at work. And I'm speaking at three board meetings this week. I am totally fine. I will be back ASAP for 10k. I miss you all <3
