THE ROWLEY BOYS.
so i wasn’t originally going to make a wanted ad for chicago, but after seeing these three i kind of needed it in my life?? okay soooo! margo rowley was a woman of very little who did what she had to just so she could make it by. which in her case resulted in a lot of prostitution and ultimately drug use was something that happened a lot -- especially after children. children had not been in her future, but sometimes shit happened and that was the case for these three brothers right here. (for this i’m going to call the oldest miami and the youngest boston -- i’ll give more detail on that later)
okay so miami, the oldest brother the one who got dealt a shit hand by being the first. was left with this person and that person and sometimes even at a young age, left home alone to take care of himself. there was points in his life that he can remember being left in a booth at a bar while his mother got her job done and they’d head home. when chicago was born, it fell to miami to take care of him. he didn’t have a choice. instead of leaving them with neighbors they would stay in their little one bedroom apartment on the fifth floor. chicago was a bit of a wild child and always gave miami a run for his money. though when boston was born, it only got worse. miami couldn’t want to get out of there so it wasn’t much of a surprise when he graduated and turned eighteen, he was gone. of course he hated leaving his brothers behind but he had to get out of that place. he had to grow up way to fast and he really just needed to live.
after miami left, things fell to chicago to take care of boston. while it was different and an issue at first he did his best. it was while doing this he meant a girl he was crazy about and he never got to spend time with her and when he did he didn’t have a choice he had to bring boston along. that was until the age of seventeen when he decided he couldn’t wait to turn eighteen, he left. he hated the idea of leaving boston alone but he was a teenager who could take care of himself by this time.
so why the strange name for the three brothers? because their mother has no idea who their father is just the city that their father comes from. so she took it upon herself to name them those cities. of course if she could have she’d call them bastard one, two, and three because she couldn’t give to shits about the three of them. when she died two years ago, they didn’t come back for the funeral. basically i am thinking that once they could they split and never looked back. definitely thinking they grew up in the austin area?? maybe on the outskirts of town?
miami - the oldest - definitely think since he grew up so fast and was able to get out when he did, didn’t go on to college or anything like that. definitely think that maybe he got involved with the motorcycle club in dallas? or even austin? or the nomads in waco? either way i just really feel like he went that way with his life!
chicago - the middle - since taking off at the age of seventeen has been from town to town and is currently living in bosque grove in a tiny apartment with the love of his life while they job from bar to bar each night singing and playing country music -- it keeps a roof over the head.
boston - the youngest - i feel is the only one of the three that did the whole college bits? possibly like a certificate program of the sorts? so he has a decent job now or something maybe? definitely the smarts of the three of them.
if you don’t like the names for the brothers, that is okay we can change them. they’re major cities that are not texas cities -- just because. but the ages i’m kinda set on? just because they work for the whole idea i had as to when they left and what not!
