It’s [ MACKENZIE ECCLESTON. 25. FEMALE. SHE/HER ]. They’ve lived in Silver Lake for [ 2 YEARS ] and are originally from [ RANGELEY, MAINE ]. They are a [ PROJECTIONIST AT CINEMA PARADISO ] and in their downtime love [ PLAYING BASKETBALL ] and [ HELPING HER ROOMMATE TO MAKE CANDLES ]. They look a lot like [ OLIVIA COOKE ] and live in [ OASIS APARTMENTS ].

THIS ASK SUMS UP MACKY TRIPLE TIMES BETTER THAN I DO IN THIS INTRO SO HAVE THIS FIRST KASJFKASFJJK

mackenzie was born in maine, her fam moved to maryland when she was five, so she was raised in maryland

she had an older brother named ian, she is very close to him. ian has psychological problems, he’s often very depressed. macky worries about him a lot but doesn’t talk about it at all. BC WHY EXPRESS FEELINGS WHEN YOU CAN REPRESS THEM??

her father is a chill dude, he is loving and understanding. her mother is loving too but she could be really overwhelming sometimes, very concerned about macky’s academics to the point she would hire a SAT tutor when she was just a freshman asfksajfakfs

she did well in school, didn’t cause any problems for her parents. despite her excellence in academics, macky was interested in filmmaking, specifically documentaries. (in time, her work evolved into mockumentaries though)

back in high school, she made a documentary for a class and it ended up getting an award, which made macky decide to study film in college

she attended oberlin college

moved silver lake 2 years ago, living in oasis apartments with her roommate

her roomie has a candle business, she is making candles and selling them online, macky helps her sometimes

she also works as a projectionist @ cinema paradiso, constantly judging your movie choices

in @lieutenantbarnes​ words: Mackenzie Eccleston —— the strangest anomaly in Oasis to date.

she is awfully judgmental rip

a true film bro

she once met nathan fielder and cried

has a feud with her landlord chuck

occasionally rude

“Oh don’t even joke about that. I have a reoccurring nightmare where I have to bail Robin out of jail for attempted murder,” Morgan chuckles, running a hand through her hair. Fallon might have been the member of their family with a criminal past, but Robin was the one who Morgan always suspected would be the subject of her own Netflix murder documentary—— as the murderer, not the victim —— if left alone with their father for more than five minutes.

Morgan’s expression softened at Macky’s words, green eyes mournful. “I’m sorry that he hurt you, I’m sorry that it didn’t work out between you and Levi.” But most of all she was sorry that she couldn’t turn off her friends pain. “I get it, I do.” Maybe more than Macky even knew, maybe more than she even realised herself. “But we can’t choose the people who we love or they wouldn’t call it falling in love in the first place.”

“I can see that clearly.” And if someone would be with Robin on that mission, it would be Mackenzie. She did not condone murder by any means but sometimes people really tested her patience. Good thing was she didn’t have a violent streak, she usually preferred exchanging snarky words. 

“I’ve always known it was going to work out.” Yet she decided to give it a try, it was stupid and Macky promised herself that she would never do such a thing again. “Tell me about it. If I could have any control over my feelings, I would never bore you with my problems like this.” She chuckled bitterly, shaking her head at herself. “I am sorry for being this mopey.”

“I’m in the mood for some urban exploring, but not like….for real,” Tierney said, giving the slightest widening of her eyes at the statement before a half-smile spread across her face, one corner of her lips turning up. “So what do you say we sneak into that abandoned house and hot box it and feel like we’re doing something naughty?” she asked, lifting her hands to give the best attempt at spirit fingers she could do on the last word. 

“Do I need to remind you I am not allowed to go anywhere near that abandoned house?” Mackenzie sighed. “Lucas and I got arrested once. I am not even going to get into the actual horrors I’ve been through in that house.” She shuddered as she thought about that Halloween party. “Two naked guys almost fell on me!” Mackenzie shook her head. “Find somewhere else, then I am in.”

Nic 📲 Macky

Nic: Tempting but impractical

Nic: Creating problems for myself is important to my lifestyle

Macky: It's a lot more practical than communicating them but that's just me

Macky: LMAO that is true

Macky: It's almost like you are addicted to the drama

Connor turned to the familiar voice and rolled his eyes as his smile grew. “I should’ve thrown the bike out in front of the car and made them buy me a new one. Look at this shit!” He showed her the bike, though it was clear as day the sad shape it was in. “That little asshole Damian down the block from me is harassing me again. I don’t think I’m above kicking a fifteen year olds ass anymore.” This war that had gone on between the kid and Connor had been going on for over a year, and no one, not even himself, fully understood it. How did a grown ass man have a child enemy? It was best not to question it. “Anyways… Yeah. Wonderful lucky day, Macky. Just perfect.”

“You should have.” Although she doubted the driver would actually get a new one for Connor. “Isn’t he like five?” He probably was older than five but anyone under eighteen was basically a toddler for Macky and she avoided toddler, babies and kids at any cost. “Oh right.. He’s fifteen.” Same difference. “I mean, if you can’t kick his ass, just go to another fifteen year old and say Damian has been making shit about him. I am sure he will kick that little asshole’s ass.” Leave it to Macky to create chaos. “I can clearly see that. Let’s go and grab some coffee and sit. I am buying.”

Location​: Downtown

Myra had volunteered to be outside of the radio station today to hand out some free pizza. It was a way to get more people to tune in. Every month, they gave away some new prize and some were bigger hits than others. It wasn’t a flat screen TV but who didn’t like pizza. Myra loved pizza which was why she had volunteered. At this point, she was 1 for 1 with those who came by. One of them, and one for her. She was on her third when a passerby came, mouth full so she used her hands to signal the open box. 

“They’re a little cold but they’re free. I know it’s early but honestly, you can never go wrong with pizza. There’s even one that’s gluten free. Unless you’re lactose intolerant, then you’re fucked. Well, in this case. Remember to tune in to your local radio station.”

As paranoid as Macky was going to sound, it actually made perfect sense why she’s always been wary of people and their offers. Once her roommate accidentally signed up for scientology, her best friend Lucas could be tricked into anything. Not to mention Macky spent the majority of her time pranking people, just a few days ago she tricked someone into eating glue by telling them it was white chocolate. “How come they are free?” Mackenzie looked over the pizza, then turned to the other brunette. “What’s the catch here?”

open starter: @slchat​ when/where: 10 pm / middle of town, not far from king ink tattoo & piercing

Karma felt all too real that late evening. Connor wheeled back his broken bicycle after finding the kid in his block who stole it for the second time. The kid reminded him of himself whenever he was younger, causing trouble for the hell of it. Connor managed to convince the kid to give him the bicycle back, but of course he did only after slashing the tires. Nice touch, Connor thought to himself. He couldn’t even be mad, considering he did the same kind of shit to others when he was that age. Though Connor should have felt rather victorious for getting his bicycle back, he pushed the wobbling bicycle along the street on his long walk home with an annoyed glance on his face and a cigarette hanging from his lips feeling defeated by the day. Whenever some headlights landed on him as he was about to cross the road on the cross walk, he jumped back right on time so the car wouldn’t hit him. “Watch it!” he yelled out irritated and then added jokingly in a dry tone, “At least have the decency to actually hit me next time.”

Hand rested against her cheek, Macky’s gaze shifted between Connor and his bike. She was going to tease him about the bike’s tires but, she was ready to land her joke but unfortunately she was interrupted by a car, possibly driven by a lunatic. “Jesus!” She yelled as well, shaking her head in disapproval. Walking towards Connor slowly, she snorted a laugh. “Today is definitely your lucky day. You almost got hit by a car.”

macky → nell

nell: Why would you ever want to meet my family? They're the exact kind of people you complain about

nell: UGH FINE

nell: I said I wouldn't want to just be friends either

nell: And then all he said was "well" and I wish I were joking but that is literally it

nell: Oh wait he also said "this wasn't part of the plan"

nell: I actually haven't seen her work, but I doubt it's that bad

nell: You're just overly critical

nell: I'm at least trying to be her friend for Matt's sake even if it's really awkward

nell: Good thing we never did a double date when I was with Rigs

nell: Opposites attract, right?

macky: yeah but that does not mean i wouldn't bother them with my presence?

macky: oh my god!!!!!!!!!! AND YOU HAVEN'T TOLD ME THIS????

macky: he just said well?

macky: that's ..................................

macky: lmao no shit sherlock

macky: me neither and i doubt i will

macky: nope, i just have standards

macky: eh. you don't have to be friends with her. the world would be a better place if people stopped forcing friendships

macky: LMAO OKAY BUT WHERE WOULD YOU ALL GO TO?

macky: bc that double date sounds like a scene from a sit-com

Javier: That's a new music fad, so that actually serves me.

Javier: No one wants perfect vocals

Macky: I also have handful of enemies who would love to heckle me.

Macky: With a good reason I guess but that's beside the point

Macky: So don't say I did not warn you

“If you wanted somebody to encourage your revenge fantasies then you should have spoken to Robin, I’m the one that’s going to talk you down from the edge.” Morgan reminded her, though the truth was there wasn’t anything too big or small that Morgan wouldn’t have done for her friend, within reason. If Macky wanted to explore her wildest revenge fantasies then Morgan would let her, but she’d still be an angel on her shoulder, a guiding hand that stopped her from doing something she would later regret.

She sighs inwardly as Macky continues, hating the sound of Macky’s voice cracking, hates that there isn’t anything she can do to ease her friend’s pain. “You still love him,” says Morgan, carefully, even if she doesn’t understand it herself. “But that’s okay, it’s not as if you’re expected to shut off your feelings for him with a switch.” Unlike Levi, who appears to have done just that, if he ever had any real feelings for her in the first place.

“Then we both would end up in jail.” Mackenzie chuckled at the thought. Morgan was right though, she was the voice of reason and maybe that’s why she chose to be there, perhaps subconsciously she wanted to be talked down, holding grudges came easily to Mackenzie but she would admit it was tiring sometimes.  

“I do.” She admitted with a sigh, she didn’t say this out loud too often, it was almost funny how she was okay with screaming her hatred but she struggled with the opposite. “Although that does not mean anything. I could love him forever but I can not be with him.” Loving someone and liking someone were different things, Macky learnt that in the hardest way. “If you told me this, I would tell you the exact same thing and reassure you it’s okay but it just feels wrong, you know? Like.. I shouldn’t have feelings for someone like him.”
