INFO / STATS UNDERCUT.
01. first things first, i am aware that a lot of people haven't seen crazy fun park. i highly recommend it. it'll make you laugh, it'll make you cry, it'll make you feel nostalgic. i digress because this will have a lot of horror aspects. a lot of the park kids died in really horrific ways. mapplethorpe ended up going to the abandoned park alone, climbing up a rollercoaster to take a picture with his cell phone and fell off the coaster platform, falling onto one of the stalls below. a lot of depressing topics will be mentioned considering mapplethorpe had died suddenly and he's a rather fresh ghost ( the other's being from the 80s - early 00s ) so he's learning to cope with his own death.
02. drama is not my thing. i avoid it in real life and you best believe i’m going to avoid it online, being that this is my hobby. i wont reblog callouts, but will read them. i’ll only reblog if the person is incredibly dangerous to make my followers be aware. no gross behavior with minor muses, either, thanks. don’t be transphobic, genderbend, whitewash, don’t be a racist asshole, don’t support n*zi imagery, don’t be a fucking dickhead.
03. oooooh i do love shipping! though, i do prefer a little bit of plotting beforehand. i think it’s very important to build a relationship ooc as well. i’m more comfortable to ship if we talk a little ooc.
04. i’m billie! i’ve thirty four years old and i’ve been apart of the rpc since late 2010. i’m an old lady. i’ve been around the block a few times. i work full time overnight ( twelve hour shifts ) at hospital & i have a lot of social obligations so i’m primarily mobile. most of my replies will be posted by queue due to this. my reply speed is slow and whilst i post a lot of ooc posts while at work & what not, it may sometimes take me a few days or even weeks to reply to a thread. patience is key! this is something i do whenever i want to destress and have fun.

"No, I know," he mumbles, further nuzzling his face into Mapplethorpe's neck. When he's up on the counter like that he's just a hair taller than Gary, which they've already used their advantage a few times. Now it just makes it easier to curl up in his arms.
"Guess I just didn't think it would go that well," he says, a small smile tugging at his lips. She hadn't tried to downplay it (try and make it seem like they're just real special friends), she'd talked to Mapplethorpe, about good things about Gary, and had pretty much given her stamp of approval in the elevator. What else could he possibly want?
"You don’t gotta pretend to like her for me or nothin, though." Gary's already plenty used to it with Jenny, even when she tries her best. "I just wanted her to like you." Gary leans a bit more of his weight against him, still trying to get closer when the only way would be to crawl inside of Mapplethorpe's shirt with him. "And you… you were just jokin' right? That she didn't try to, like… say somethin' to you?" Even just asking has Gary's arms tightening around him. Someone better than him whisking Mapplethorpe away is already his worst nightmare- that he's had plenty in the time between their visits. Losing him to a woman would be extra devastating. To her? He and Jenny both might just check themselves into the psych ward at that point.
a content hum leaves mapplethorpe as he lets gary bury his face in his neck, his eyes fluttering closed. good, it doesn't seem that gary knows about there little conversation or the lie he blurted out. he feels like he'd be much more upset and certainly not snuggling up to him if that was the case. ( mapplethorpe might not understand, but gary loves his mother. he has to respect that. )
mapplethorpe can't help but snicker, moving to rest his chin on the top of his head. he'll press a kiss into gary's hair, letting his lips linger for a moment. ( he's glad that carol anne didn't try to verbally attack him back. ) considering that he more than likely would buckle down and make it worse. ( he's stubborn and headstrong which can be a curse instead of a blessing. )
a hum leaves him, sucking on his teeth. "i know--..." and, like he told carol, he wasn't about to play happy family with her. if anything, he said what he needed to say and carol anne knew where he stood. ( he'd try to tolerate her but he already knows that it can only be small increments. ) he'll shake his head, his arms tightening around gary to really solidified it. "it wasn't the truth. i just felt like she was taking up too much of my precious time with you,"
˗ˏˋ »»----- walking with @coastercruushed ; gabby starter ----➤ ´ˎ˗
Gabby's still taking the bus- she had gotten behind the wheel enough times to still count on one hand and hated it, and wasn't exactly looking forward to doing it again even before she moved somewhere where they drive on the other side of the road. She can tell from the few minutes walk from the bus stop to the front entrance that it'll be dark by the time she decides to head back home. Guess she's doing a night shoot. At least she brought her whole gear bag.
The front entrance being the open mouth of something beastly looking is silly, especially with remnants of caution tape scattered around, and flowers wilted enough that they've almost all become the same brown color. Yikes. She still takes about a dozen pictures before she actually walks in.
It's kind of creepy, as is the point of exploring abandoned places, so she puts on some music to at least fill some of the silence. She's glad she had the sense to use digital tonight so she doesn't have to worry about wasting film, since there's a lot of shit to see. The whole creepy kid-sy vibe is sick. It would probably take her all night to get everything she wanted, but she can always come back.
Once the sky starts to blaze with the setting sun she sits down on the steps of the nearest ride, an old rollercoaster, and pulls the bus schedule up on her phone. It's not like D.C. with a lively public transportation system, so she could be seriously fucked if she misses the bus. At least the longest it doesn't run seems to be... two and a half hours. At least it's the weekend and she can afford to sleep past noon to make up for it.
oh, mapplethorpe could relate. he did love being around the wheel but his mother? she about had a panic attack every time she had to be passenger. ( passenger princess? no, more like passenger prisoner. ) so, mapplethorpe only had a learners permit and basically took his skateboard everywhere. ( well, you know, back whenever he could go anywhere. )
it was just after dawn, everyone in the park had respawned and in the process of picking themselves back together. ( sometimes literally but that's against the point. ) mapplethorpe stands in front of the structure that snapped his spine in two, stretching his arms up above his head as his bones seems to crack and creak, a loud groan leaving him. he'll let out a sigh as he watches nimrod crawl out from underneath the coaster, a yawn leaving him. ( another fun filled night at crazy fun park--... or so he thought. )
tigger had ran up to remus, alerting them that some living girl was taking photos at the park entrance. this, of course, spread like wildfire, causing the majority of the ghosts to fade into the darkness. ( everyone except for mapplethorpe landis, that is. ) remus could chew his ass out for it later but right now? he wanted to keep his eye on the girl and stop anything from going wrong. ( he thinks the fact that the park chooses who it wants to be bullshit. ) a part of him was still a bit bitter that no one had tried to stop him from climbing the coaster.
the girl doesn't seem to notice him at all, which is just fine. he finds himself leaning against the railing on the steps, staring at the back of her head. he'll loudly suck on his teeth to get her attention. "you normally sneak into abandoned, haunted amusement parks?" a pause. "haunted, allegedly." she doesn't look familiar to him, but around his age.

Gary's trying not to vibrate with nerves once he and his mom are in the elevator, staring up at the floor indicator over the door and gnawing at the inside of his cheek. "Hey, c'mon, I wasn't," she says after a moment, bumping her box against his to get his attention. "He was talkin' bout how well you're doin' for yourself, 'nd I can tell he really cares about you. That's all."
He's still chewing on the inside of his cheek, looking over at her, in his brief pause. "You promise?"
"I promise." And she means it. That is what happened, after all. A whitewashed version of their conversation, but still not untrue.
When they get outside and get her boxes in the car she hugs him. She plants a kiss against the side of his head while she squeezes him tight, and throws out a quick "love ya!" while getting in the car. It had taken him becoming an adult for her to let him be close to her in this way- in the past only ever throwing in a "you too" when he said it first and silently accepting his hugs- and yet it makes him feel so small and vulnerable. And terrified to let it show, lest she pull back again.
Gary briefly considers taking the stairs back up for the seconds faster it might be than to take the elevator. But that's only if he ran, which he feels too drained for.
When he gets back inside he locks the door behind him. If Jenny wants them it'll have to wait a bit. Not like she doesn't have the key. But she'll get the message. Gary wanders from the door into Mapplethorpe's arms, tucking his face into his neck and snaking his arms around his waist to keep him close. Making a small, whiney noise while he settles in, and whispers "that was weird."
oh, carol anne actually was telling the truth. mapplethorpe had been the one telling a little white lie. ( so long as carol doesn't say a fucking word, he won't crack under pressure. ) whilst he could spin a tale faster than most, he wasn't a very good liar. it was easy to tell when he was lying because he tends to stammer over his words and get flustered. ( then extremely defensive whenever you call him out on it. ) of course he didn't think about this at the time. ( he hopes that carol doesn't say anything when they are alone. )
he seems to fall into nerves as he's left alone in gary's apartment. he forgets about the coffee in his hands, staring unblinking at the floor as his jaw sets. he'll lazily kick his legs, heels hitting the cabinets as he sits on the counter, running his fingers through his hair. his head shoots up whenever he hears the door open and close, pursing his lips together.
he'll instinctively open his arms, even wrapping his legs around gary's torso with a little squeal. "not like, super weird. i've had worst first meetings,"
