the four seasons come and go. i gave you my winter, i gave you my summer. you were my whole world but i’m letting you go. did i really love you? when was it? was it spring? yes, back then we were like shakespeare’s lovers as if we were each other’s last, we could only see each other. but now i want to see something else
“there’s a reason people start watching birds, y’know?” jackie’s eyes were focused on an old lady as she spoke. the woman was feeding birds by a pond. like what jackie assumed most old people do. probably the most exciting part of their day. “life’s meant to get boring as you get older.” before continuing, the brunette tore her eyes away from the old lady to face kristoff, “so it’s not so disappointing when you die.” she said this with no specific ill-will towards older people. just jackie dropping her own version of reality.
“okay, but consider this: they don't know that we know they know we know,” rapunzel reasoned with excitement. “so, see, we have the upper hand!” she ended. her argument could definitely use some work, but rapunzel thought it was fairly sound. she also never knew how competitive she could be when playing games. “so all we have to do is change strategies to something they won’t expect!”
“I don’t lose things,” rapunzel said defensively. “I just place things in locations which later elude me.” which was just a fancy, round about way of defining ‘losing’. but things were rarely lost for long. she was sure it’d turn up... eventually.
Richie didn’t want to be here. This was all one big nightmare after another. First It and all that shit, and now this. Sure, maybe this island was some kind of paradise or something, but if Richie has learnt anything recently, nothing is ever as good as it seems. Honestly this was probably some big elaborate trick from It. It wasn’t dead, and this was it’s way to get back at Richie. Isolate him, make him feel little and alone, It seemed to like that.
Richie shook his head and shot back another shot at the bar he had recently found. It was a nice place, and honestly Richie just needed to relax for a hot second.
“You know, the last time I got this drunk I was about to do your mom.”

“Okay yeah that wasn’t even funny. Damn I need to more alcohol.”

jackie, unlike most, had been taking this island on with stride. it could be because the memories of point place disappearing didn’t affect her as much as one probably should be. she wasn’t even sure that was what happened. — a whole town disppearing? that doesn’t sound very plausible. maybe denial was her problem. she contemplated all of one second before dismissing the possibility that she had a fault. zoning back in at the wrong moment, it seemed, as the old guy in front of her was already drunk. “i thought it was hilarious,” she replied. although her face did not indicate as such. “that you think you could sleep with my mom? her fidelity may be questionable, but she has very strong standards.”
Truthfully, Anna had still been trying to get used to all the new and sudden changes that came along with being on this island. This of course lead to her running late for her shift. She had slept through her alram as well as the second one she set just in case the first one didn’t do the trick ( and the third and the fourth ) which resulted in the girl being a frazzled mess. Anna threw her coppery hair up into a lose ponytail, as she attempted to collect herself the best she could. “ Hi! How are you? “ she asked, slightly out of breath as she spoke. “ What can I get for you? “
rapunzel didn’t notice the other’s condition. she had been too busy staring at the menu. there were so many options. all of which sounded absolutely mouth-watering. she had to talk herself out of ordering one of each. because that would definitely seem weird. also wasteful. she could eat, but not everything under the moon. “mmm” she contemplated for a long moment then finally asked, “what do you recommend as the best? specifically something full of sugar. i need an energy boost.”
↳ MADDIE HASSON + SHE/HER | did you hear? [RAPUNZEL CORONA] just got off the ship! i hear they’re [NINETEEN] and came here from [DISNEY]. i’m pretty sure they [DON’T] remember their past. if you have any questions, you can find them working as a [STUDENT + FREELANCE ARTIST] downtown.
what objects did your character manage to bring with them?
the first thing rapunzel grabbed was her canvas sleeve full of her favorite (all of her) brushes. after that she packed her favorite lattern painting & her favorite purple dress. oh ! also she could never forget pascal (not applicable if pascal is picked up).
how do they feel about the island?
without her memories, the island feels like her home. she loves exploring the land & painting the scenery. it feels honestly feels like a dream life.
if they don’t remember their past, do they have false memories, or none at all before their arrival?
rapunzel has vague false memories that mimic her actual life. the confinement is lessened in these memories. she just believed she had an extremely over protective, single mother. a mother who homeschooled her & rarely let her out of the house because she supposedly has a weak immune system.
arriving at the island, the most clear memory she has is that she was at ivory cove because she ran away from home. her mother lied to her about being sick & with the shock she rashly left home.
add any other information you feel may be important!
since she believes she ran away, rapunzel is very much emotionally flip-flopping like this all the time.
same as before, i plan to make some pages for connections. but i’m really up for anything.
❝ when i sent myself those flowers and read how much i loved me, i felt so much better. ❞
↳ CAMILA MENDES + SHE/HER | did you hear? [JACKIE BURKHART] just got off the ship! i hear they’re [TWENTY] and came here from [THAT '70S SHOW]. i’m pretty sure they [DO] remember their past. if you have any questions, you can find them working as a [STUDENT] downtown.
what objects did your character manage to bring with them?
aside from as much of her closet that she could fit, jackie would be lost without her 45 of todd rundgren’s “hello it’s me”, stuffed unicorn mr. fluffycakes, and berets in various shades of pink.
how do they feel about the island?
she was scared of the initial evacuation. she feared another war was breaking out & suddenly changed the draft to include women. this worry lasted up until arriving on the island. after that, she felt a mix of relief & excitement. in the beginning she’ll view this as an impromptu vacation. but as she became assimilated, she thinks of it as an upgraded point place. in either place she was fairly stagnant, so might as well live it up on an island, right?
if they do remember their past, do they want to go home?
no. even under the strange circumstances of how she arrived & inability to leave, she still very much prefers ivory cove. she loves her home, the ocean, & advanced technology. the only thing she misses most are her friends & their hangout sessions in eric’s basement.
add any other information you feel may be important!
jackie is pretty much still the same as in the series. she can be very shallow, rude, & stubborn, but towards people who can look past that surface she is very loyal & supportive.
she still dresses very 70s !! which is okay because high waisted jeans & crop tops has found it’s way back into style.
** prob will add more later
i will be adding a general connections page & more elaborate plots page, but i would love all the general classmates/friends/exes things && just to plot everything!! so feel free to dm me or like and i can message you.
