“Yeah, maybe I should start living in the present, I’d probably be better off,” Gavin agreed, thinking about that for a moment. He did spend a lot of time thinking about the past with his father, and how Hans never was successful with gaining the throne to Arendelle. Which lead to a lot of thoughts about the future and Gavin’s attempts to make his way to the throne. God, he didn’t even want to think about that.. Or maybe it wasn’t that deep. Maybe Gavin was just in over his own head and slowly going crazy.

“I think a whole lot of people would be, but at the same time I respect the fact that for some others might have more difficulty focusing than the majority,” Rowan replied, barely managing to prevent a rambling session. Then something dawned on him just a few moments later. The fact that he forgot to introduce himself. “Also, I’m extremely sorry that I didn’t do this first. I’m Rowan Corduroy, nice to meet you.”

“Nice to meet you too, she said, shaking the boy’s hand. “My honorary uncle, Bobble, has had sight problems forever, and he’s always warned me about the danger of bright screens,” Jasmine told him, not caring if she revealed random facts about her fairy family. “Anyways, I grew up in Pixie Hollow and they showed the same movie over and over again in our one theater and it wasn’t even interesting, my friends dragged me out to see it once and I honestly wanted to tear my eyes out,” she said, quietly laughing at the memory. “Sorry I’m rambling,” Jasmine said, hiding her slightly crimson face behind a thin blanket of her hair.

“Sorry to hear that he had vision trouble, but on the bright side, he did impart some wisdom. On the other hand, I can understand how that might get maddening, the same film all the time thing. I used to babysit for some family friends back in the day and it eventually became a necessity for me to start bringing my music along or just generally something else to take my mind off the same movie,” Rowan answered. “And it’s chill, I tend to ramble all the time, so it helps to know that I’m not alone.”

Gavin paused, turning back and looking to the other. He really didn’t need to make any more enemies, he didn’t want to become his father. So maybe the first step was to not wander around with his head down like a total creep. Gavin forced a smile on to his face, nodding his head a bit. “Hey, it’s no biggie. No harm, no foul, right?” The other seemed friendly enough, something that Gavin wasn’t exactly used to. That was, unless it was coming from Erik. Which he had a feeling he was’t going to be on his good side any longer. Might as well make some new friends.

“No harm, no foul,” Rowan repeated as he came to a halt and stated to retrace his steps. The other earbud was carefully, almost reluctantly removed, but not because he didn’t want to talk to the other male. It was more due to the fear that the ghostly whispering wouldn’t stop, even if it normally did when the son of Wendy was around other people. “After all, sometimes we need to bump into someone to bring us back to the present.”

“I prefer chocolate to popcorn,” Jasmine replied turning to the boy. “And if you need a distraction, read a book. Don’t fry your corneas.” Jasmine chuckled lightly to herself, “But, I guess if you’re not a big reader, killing your eyes could come as a close second.” Jasmine slightly shrugged her shoulders and turned to the taller boy and stuck out her hand, “I’m Jasmine, and you are?”

“In my opinion, both chocolate and popcorn are great choices. Then again, the same thing goes for books and movies in terms of distractions. Although there is that drawback of ruining your eyes with a movie,” the son of Wendy answered, just barely managing to keep himself from rambling. He stuck out his own for a shake as he added, “Nice to meet you Jasmine and I’m Rowan.”

Happy smiled, unsure of what to say next. “I’m glad I got to see you again. I think Mickey’s death has really made me think about those who I lost in the past.” Happy sighed out slightly. “Do you want to visit Gravity Falls?”

“Me too,” Rowan agreed before a light chuckle escaped. “I’ve actually been talking to my grandpa about arranging a scavenger hunt so I can surprise my mom at the Mystery Shack. Plus, I’d check out the old stomping grounds in general too. If you’re free in the near future, I can call him and say it’ll be a double surprise?”

[rowanflippincorduroy]

who's your biggest inspiration in life?

"Straight outta the gate with tough questions, huh? Honestly, so many different people have provided massive amounts of inspiration at different points, but if I can only pick one then that honor goes to my mom.”

got a story to tell?

Returning to campus was.. difficult to say the least. Hans had taken Gavin out of school, bringing him home to the Southern Isle. Once word got out about his son having a fling with the ice queen’s spawn, Hans actually commended his son. Finding his way to the crown just like his old man had tried. But as Gavin confessed to having real feelings or Erik, his father was not pleased.

Hans had brought Gavin home to do a little damage control. He reminded him of the harm that Elsa had cause their family, where their rightful place was, what their mission was. And when that didn’t do much convincing, Hans did what he was good at. He dug for the insecurity, he dug deep for what Gavin was truly ashamed of. His powers. That Gavin was never going to be able to actually be with the prince. That he couldn’t hold his hand properly, or hug him or dare he say even kiss him. It just couldn’t be.

That sent Gavin right into a spiral. He could never be with Erik, or anyone for that matter, and that was something he was just going to have to get used to. So he returned to school a few weeks later, of course he had impeccable timing. A video of their late leader was released. Perfect. Maybe that would distract people from his sudden reappearance.

So walking through campus the following day, Gavin did his best to keep his head down, staying low until he could figure out a better game plan. His eyes were glued to the ground as he walked, his shoulder bumping into another person. “Excuse me,” he mumbled before continuing on his way.

Since the video had gotten released, Rowan hadn’t been getting much sleep. In the aftermath, his desire to help solve the mystery had only been kicked into a whole new gear. However, this also meant he lacked the usual grip he had on his powers. Cloudy skies tended to pop up more often and for whatever reasons, ghosts found him much easier to track down. This cocktail of events was why he was currently listening to music as he walked around campus.

At least he had been, until he’d bumped into someone. “It’s alright,” Rowan responded as he took an earbud out then turned around, closing his mouth upon assuming that the other male wouldn’t come to a halt anytime soon. Still, there was something one of his uncles had advised him. Take a leap of faith. With that very thought repeating in his head, the 19 year old added, “Sorry about that. It was my fault too.”

On a short walk through the streets of Calisota, Jasmine walks past a cinema. Curious as to the strange amount of people pouring in and out of the building, she steps closer. Looking up, she reads the multiple movies playing today and finds that exactly zero of them sound interesting. They just all seemed so boring. “Why would anyone want to watch anything here, like ever?” Jasmine said under her breath not expecting anyone to here, shaking her head.

Normally, whenever some made a comment along the lines of that, Rowan just kept walking. However, there was something in the atmosphere that made him want to take a chance. “Probably because the popcorn’s fantastic?” the 19 year old joked at first. Then his gaze followed his new companion’s as he added, “Plus, sometimes watching a movie of any type can provide a pretty great and much needed distraction from the usual life in the fast lane feeling.”

“Oh, I was just asking for some help with moving some boxes, but if you’re busy, it’s no worries.” She shrugged her shoulders, leaning over to grab her box and lifting it up.

“I’m actually always happy to lend a helping hand,” Rowan answered as he tucked his earbuds away in a safe place. “So, are there any boxes you want me to specifically grab first or do you just want me to take any of them?”

Nova set down her suitcase, letting out a huff as she looked up at the apartment building, then back down at her stuff. Though she didn’t like to depend on other people, she had to admit that being a loner didn’t serve her well in a situation like this. She had too much stuff and not enough hands for it all. She noticed someone passing on the street and, against her better judgement, called out to them. “Hey! Would you mind helping me for a sec?”

Rowan had been walking by, with his earbuds playing some songs that he’d grown up listening to as both a way to block city noise as well as the voices of the ghosts who insisted on calling out from wherever they were. Except for Straight Blanchin’, never Straight Blanchin’. The songs might have been from his childhood, but even those had standards. However, someone’s lips moving caught his attention and he immediately removed one, then both earbuds. “Sorry, I only caught the tail end of what you were saying? Do you need help with something?”

Happy had a slight smile on their lips. The “weirdness” of Gravity Falls was what drew the Goof family to it. Goofy had so many oddities to him, that the town was just so intriguing and made him feel at home. In turn, it made Happy feel at home. They were so caught up in the fact that they didn’t even try to fight for Rowan. Happy knew why too. It was the pain of knowing that this was their father’s favorite place. “I wish I could have done the same. Well, not exactly the same, but some weirdness has happened to me too. I would like to tell you about it, but I don’t think I can. It’s slightly too personal, and you know that I would tell you if it was just personal, you know? I’m sort of just jabbering now aren’t I?”

Rowan, even though he didn’t want it to happen just yet, felt his guard drop a hint more. The presence of the Goof family in Gravity Falls then Happy’s presence specifically quickly became a recurring theme in some of his earliest joyful memories. It was that fact among many others that prevented him from holding any negative feelings towards them. Besides, they had enough on their plate without having to worry about an old friend harboring any feelings of the sort. “It’s alright, I completely get it. If there ever comes a day when you do feel comfortable talking about it with me or just discussing anything in general, call my name and I’ll come running, just like back then.”

cocoa-and-peppermint:

“Hey! Long time no see!” Buddy waved as he approached someone, a fresh cup of cocoa in his hands as he did. It was a hot day, but he couldn’t get enough of the stuff.

“Indeed it has been a long time,” Rowan answered with a joking smile. “So, tell me stranger, why are you drinking cocoa in the middle of summer?” he added just a few moments before a chuckling fit took over.

ghost-boy-roy:

Roy sat down at a small table, concentrating on keeping himself corporeal as he stared at a plate of food. He wondered if he could even eat. The burger and fries sat in front of him tauntingly, and he had paid out the ear for them. Five dollars seemed to be the minimum anymore, and he couldn’t help but wonder whether or not this was a city for the wealthy. He sighed and attempted to pick up a fry and eat it. He could feel the heat, but he didn’t actually mind. It… was comforting. Still, as he swallowed, the fry passed through him in a strange way. It definitely didn’t feel like he remembered, and it wasn’t exactly pleasant. The young man sighed, turning to look as someone passed by. “Hey! Sorry to bother, but… Would you want this hamburger? I… can’t eat it.”

“No bother at all,” Rowan responded as he took a seat across from Roy and carefully slid the plate over towards himself. He’d been running miscellaneous errands for the better part of today, which left him feeling quite hungry. And thirsty, which is why he removed a water bottle from his backpack then set it on the table. He didn’t remember summers being this hot back home, but then again, most of his time was split between home, the homes of friends, or the Mystery Shack. As the son of Wendy took a few sips of water, a small smile of greeting was offered up. “So, forgive the awkwardness, but how’ve you been?”

Nym was always drawn to the museum. After living in the Underworld his entire life, he never really knew where he came from. His father was a demon from ancient times, but he always knew that his time in Gravity Falls is what shaped his father’s world. The man walked slowly over to the exhibit, already seeing another person. He chewed on his sweater string, slightly smirking. The exhibit was definitely making it seem like Bill Cipher was the ultimate villain, but it was wrong. He had hoped that it would have shown the nasty part of Gravity Falls’ heroes. However, hearing the person’s comment sure made him chuckle. “I think that’s your granddad’s fault and it’s informational.” His voice soft, but it had an underlying dark tone.

Rowan nearly jumped at the voice, but reminded himself that he was in a museum and it was probably to be expected that somebody would have taken the chance to start up a conversation. “Well, I certainly know what I’m asking him when I head back to visit for a few days,” he remarked, pulling out his phone in order to make a note of the question while a skeptical sort of look crossed his features for a few moments. Although he personally had a few potential theories starting to form, it would be for the best to hear the answer from Manly Dan himself. Once the device was stored away in one of his pockets yet again, Rowan’s attention focused on his new companion. “Sorry for completely failing to introduce myself. I’m Rowan Corduroy, nice to meet you.”

Rowan had no idea what brought him to the museum, he honestly didn’t. Maybe it was a combination of homesickness and the desire to learn something, maybe it was something else entirely. All thoughts related to that drifted out of his mind as he entered the Gravity Falls section, his gaze immediately attracted to the portion concerning Weirdmageddon. As he scanned over the information, most of it familiar from stories told by his mom and a few other loved ones despite the Never Mind All That Act, something grabbed his attention. “Did they honestly have to mention my mom’s middle name is Blerble?” the 19 year old inquired aloud.

“I’ll be in touch.” Adrielle gave him a smirk. “Now, I’m going to continue getting my drink on.”

Rowan gave yet another respectful nod as well as a wave of goodbye. “In that case, I’ll see you around. Don’t get too wild now,” he answered before heading off to find a more quiet corner of the party.
