Macy Sylvia Craeton

"There are all kinds of love in this world but never the same love twice"

0 · 371 views · located in Earth

a character in “Life As It Is”, as played by Stella11

Description

Name: Macy Sylvia Craeton

Date of Birth:December 9th, 1922

Age:23

Physical Description: Macy stands at an intimidating five feet, and three inches tall. Maybe three and a half inches on a good day. She has short blonde hair that graces the edges of her shoulder. She has dark blue eyes, and a slender frame. Probably due to her nervous pacing, another bad habit that will never land her a husband, according to her mother.

Background: Macy's father is a veteran of World War I, and served in World War II as a general. Christian suffered from PTSD when he originally returned. Coupled with the stress of a new marriage, her mother suffered from miscarriage after miscarriage. Then when the time came, the man was less than pleased to find himself a father to a a child with limited capacities. Her brother, Charlie, was nearly the breaking point of their marriage. When nearly all hope was lost, Macy arrived. The man was relieved, as at least this one was normal from what they could see. Macy and Charlie had the typical sibling relationship, all though he suffered from down-syndrome. The two of them spent their lives as military brats. Her mother,Elise, refused to send Charlie to an asylum because of their constant moving. Most people did not know of Charlie, per Christian's request. The family moved from Annapolis to Sonoma when the war in the pacific began. It came as a great relief to Christian as Macy had begun bringing a local mechanic around the house. Macy was stuck at home helping her brother as her mother's health had begun to worsen. The pair was never seen a part. Through some of his connections, Christian was able to find out that the man had avoided signing up for the draft. That quickly changed as the man was sent to prison, and then off to eastern Germany. By then Macy was unable to find him. They had moved across the country, and he was on the other side of the world.

Although she loves her brother, Macy would have much rather been doing her part in the war. She had always wanted to be a nurse, but her mother needed her help. She was given an ultimatum, go find the boy, or stay and help Charlie. If she were to find the man, her father had the paperwork all ready to send Charlie to the asylum run by their diocese. Macy is trying to help her brother become more independent as she is ready for her own life.

Personality:Macy has never been one to take things seriously, or even try to be serious. Of course she isn't a walking joke-machine, or constantly blabbering. A majority of her comments are muttered, if she forgets to keep them in her head. She is usually soft-spoken but is clear to let you know if you have upset her in any way. Macy is incredibly patient as well, as she needed to be dealing with her brother al of these years. Although her lifestyle would lend itself for someone to be flexible, Macy is, to quote her father, "the original immovable object". Once her opinion is formulated, there is no changing it.

So begins...

Macy held on to Charlie's arm after he got out of the car and began to walk with him into the grocery store. Always hold hands in the parking lot, one of many rules she always broke. Good thing Charlie was here. She brushed her hair out of her face as they walked inside. Charlie went and got them a cart before returning to his sister's side.

"Bananas, oranges, and jello, and apple juice!" Charlie recited from the list he pulled out of her hand.

"I don't see Apple juice on there. You forgot about the carrots and potatoes, you like potatoes!" Macy teased as she took the list back from him and began to gather things together,"We will see if there's enough left over for Apple juice." Macy gave items for Charlie to weigh, and then the pair was tasked with figuring out the price. Charlie excelled in math so Macy let him take the lead. She stood back and watched the cart.

Soon the pair had everything on their list and had just enough left over for Apple juice, funny how that worked out. Charlie made a beeline to the frozen section while Macy sighed softly and followed behind him with the cart.

"Uhhh exc-chuuseee me," Charlie said tapping the man's shoulder who was blocking his Apple juice concentrate section. "I need to get that." He said, waiting for the man to move. With every second he had to wait, Charlie moved closer to the man.

Macy turned the corner down the aisle and sighed softly as she quickly made her way over to her brother and the man. "Charlie, remember you need to wait your turn. There will be plenty left. Why don't you watch the cart?"

Charlie grumbled but eventually gave in to his sister's request.

Macy took a breath once Charlie was out of earshot, and moved away from the man,"I am so incredibly sorry. He really loves Apple juice, we're working on being patient but apparently those rules don't apply to Apple juice."

THEO ASBURY
Image


Theo Asbury was gaining weight, and fast. As a retired soldier, he'd gotten used to the daily workouts and healthy lifestyle, but was slowly losing that habit due to laziness, coffee and cigarettes. He had decided that day that he was gonna stop drinking coffee and substitute it for healthy juices.

He had gotten up extra early that morning to make a healthy breakfast, run around his neighborhood, shower and change into casual clothes to then go to the supermarket and buy fruit juice. So that was why, just before midday, Theo was standing in front of the various kinds of fruit juices arranged by labels in the shelves. He had never been a big fan of juices before, so his knowledge on them was from little to none.

As he stared ahead, lost in his own thought, Theo felt a finger tapping his shoulder. He slowly turned around, raising an eyebrow questioningly and came across the amusingly impatient face of a boy. But not just any boy, a boy with down syndrome. Growing up with neighbors who had a kid with down syndrome in Sacramento had taught him to appreciate their special needs and enjoy their company.

He smiled at the boy ahead, dimples marking his cheeks, and stepped aside to let him pass. But before the boy could get his beloved apple juice, a woman came walking around the corner and called out to him, scolding him for being impatient. The girl was gorgeous, Theo could say that without a doubt, but he didn't let his exterior crack and turned his amused smile from the boy to the woman, answering her reply with a chuckle.

"Don't worry about it, I was being pretty slow myself. I'm planning on changing coffee for juice, but I just don't know which type to pick," he told her, turning now to address Charlie, "would you recommend apple juice then?"

"Uh, uh, dis one," he said reaching in and gabbing two of his favorite type of apple juice and handed one to the man. The other he put in their cart. Macy nodded, and Charlie looked back at the man. He paused for a minute and Macy saw the look in his eye.

"No, come on we need to get home. Remember, Mom wanted you to go on a walk with her?" Macy said walking back over to the cart. She placed her hands on the cart, ready to move when she got a second look at the man. He was so handsome. Even Charlie was smitten.

Charlie tapped the man on the shoulder again and leaned up to whisper in his ear,"She's upset because her date cancelled on her!" He snickered. Macy was officially mortified. She turned the other way so neither of them could see the nice hue of red emerging on her face. Great.

"Charlie, come on, Dad's going to be mad at both of us now for being late," Macy said turning just so slightly that her red face wouldn't be shown to the man. She hated to pull the dad card, but they needed to leave. Tonight was the first Military Ball since the war had ended, and yes her date had cancelled on her. He didn't like how she chewed her food, or wanted to get a job. Mainly the latter, but he did criticize her eating habits.

Charlie immediately ran to his sister's side and took her place steering the cart. "Thanks for your help," Macy called to the man as the pair of them walked to the register. She began to load the items on to the conveyor belt and gave Charlie the money to pay. A decision she immediately regretted as she wanted to go home immediately. They would be here for at least another fifteen minutes. But oh well, that's what needed to be done.

Macy took a step back from the register and loaded the cart as Charlie talked to the clerk about the weather and paid. She had given him exact change, but that wouldn't shorten the process.

THEO ASBURY

Theo grabbed the apple juice Charlie gave him and, with a smile, put it inside the basket he was carrying filled with other supermarket products.

He saw the boy look at him, then back at his sister, then back at him, and smiled again as Charlie leaned up to whisper in his ear. What he said made Theo raise his eyebrows amusedly. So the girl didn't have a date for the Military Ball, huh? As an ex-american soldier, he had been invited to the reunion too, but he wasn't much of a "fancy party" guy and had decided not to attend. He preferred a nice get together with friends, beer and drunk deep talks around a bonfire.

Now that he knew he might get to go with Mrs. Blondie and hopefully lighten up her evening by going as her new date, the fancy ball didn't sound as bad as it did.

Before Theo could offer the lady his company, she quickly scolded her brother and made her way down the aisle, to the cash registers. But he was never one to give up easily, so he too made his way to were she and her brother where paying and stood in the line behind them.

Charlie seemed to be busy chatting with the clerk, and not losing the opportunity presented, Theo stepped closer to the woman to charm things up before he offered to be her replacement date.

"I'm sorry, I didn't catch your name," he said to her, smirking, "My name is Theodore Asbury, but everybody calls me just Theo," he added, extending the hand that wasn't holding the basket towards her hoping she'd take it and shake it. And offer her name too.

"Pleasure to meet you, Theo," she smiled taking his hand and offering it a small squeeze as she gently graced her thumb over his knuckles before she let it gently fall back to his side,"Macy Craeton. And your wingman is named Charlie," she smirked turning to check on Charlie. He was thoroughly enjoying his transaction. He absolutely loved talking to the cashiers about all the stuff they saw. It was his dream job.

"I think I know what you're going to ask, and the answer is yes. Though I will have to meet you there if you don't mind. I need to walk in with my father since my mother is ill. I hope you're not offended, but his ego is much larger than yours. I can escort you in first though. I'm sorry, I can't have him angry at me. I'm sure you'll understand?" Macy asked looking at Theo.

"I'm sorry, nothing comes easy with me," she blushed as she looked away from him.
