a small EP from a small singer-songwriter maisie devereux. below are what the songs mean to her + lyrics she really resonates with.

heartbreak anthem.

➳ maisie holds no grudges for the way things ended with elliot. this song is saying how she doesn’t want to dwell on the past when they can both soar in the future without each other. they both have so much going on in their own lives to focus so much time dwelling on that. so, on her part, she is accepting it and trying her best to move on. 

Hello, it’s me, your ex. I called to say not sorry, but I wish you the best And I don’t hold no grudges, promise this ain’t a test We okay, we okay 

Sometimes it works out but sometimes it don’t Maybe we’ll fix this or maybe we won’t Sometimes a heart can sink like a stone Until you find home

love me or leave me.  

➳ this is a song maisie wrote before her and elliot ended things. she felt insecure in her relationship with him. she loved that he was doing what he loved and was touring the world, but she missed him and felt that they were drifting apart (both by being so many miles apart or being together in the same room). she felt that so much was changing between their relationship even if it wasn’t evident to elliot. 

You used to tell me that you loved me once What happened? What happened? Where is all of this coming from? What happened? What happened? You say I’m crazy and there’s nothing wrong You’re lying and you know I know Baby, what have we become? What happened? 

We used to never go to bed angry But it’s all we ever do lately And you’re turning away like you hate me Do you hate me? Do you hate me?  

i love you. 

➳ maisie ended things with elliot. there shouldn’t have been a heartbreak on her side, right? that’s how it works? she still loves him, she just that she isn’t the one for him. she had thought for a long time whether she should break up with him or not. this song is basically how her heart was feeling and knowing she couldn’t talk about it to an angry elliot. she’s not good at communicating easily, so this song sort of helps her communicate how she was feeling at that moment. 

And I just wanna scream out ‘til my voice breaks Even if the tears fall and my heart hates me I just wanna know how I can save me, yeah, yeah (I just wanna know, no) Even if these three words choke and take me (No) Baby, I love you

a mess (happy 4 u). 

➳ although she was the one who left her relationship with elliot, she still feels somewhat as a mess without him. she wants him to be happy, even if it hurts her to see him with anyone else. she is happy for him that he has found a love that will love him in the way he deserves. no hard feelings on her part.

I’m still a mess Oh, since you left If I can’t be happy, happy with you I’ll be happy, happy for you I guess, no hard feelin’s 'Cause love’s lookin’ good on you If you’re happy I’m happy, I’m happy for you

               Tim  wished  he  had  a  few  more  friends  that  would  be  into  coming  to  this  kind  of  thing  with  him.  He  kept  to  himself  mostly,  which  was  odd  given  his  outgoing  personality,  but  he  couldn’t  shake  a  feeling  that  he  had  friends  out  there  somewhere  that  he  needed  to  find.  “  Yeah,  I’m  in  the  same  boat.  ”  He  nodded,  a  small  smile  on  his  face.  “  Although,  I  don’t  think  I  have  the  heart  to  deny  everyone  the  honor  of  hearing  my  Careless  Whisper.  It’s  a  tear-jerker,  I  swear.  ”

“okay, but you have to find me when you start singing that song,” lauren laughed lightly before taking another sip of whatever concoction she decided to drink. “that song is such a guilty pleasure of mine, especially the saxophones in the beginning. i need to see that,” lauren sort of pleaded with a giant smile set on her lips. lauren absolutely loved music, and it used to be a major part of her life. for now, however, she just enjoyed listening to it and belting out random tunes during drunk karaoke. it was her favorite pastime with her cousin. “i don’t even know my go-to karaoke song, honestly... possibly bring me to live by evanescence? or some sort of song they would sing on glee,” lauren shrugged.

a lot had been on maisie’s mind recently. with breaking it off with elliot, writing her own music, and running poet’s garden, it felt like everything was on her plate. although she had missed talking to elliot, she knew that there was a lot of resentment and anger towards her. she understood why, but she still sometimes wished that it could all go back to normal. it had been a slow day at poet’s garden, maisie had been behind the register filling out some paperwork and scribbling any new ideas she had in her mind. when she heard the little bell for the door go off, maisie’s head whipped away with a smile. “hello! can i help you with anything?”

[devincly]

{ perrie edwards, cis woman, she/her } i’m sure you’ve seen MAISIE DEVEREUX around ivywood. she is twenty-eight years old and are a owner of poet’s garden/musician. i’ve heard a rumor that she is a huge fan of horror movies & stranger things and have a tendency to be  artistic & patient and airy & fanciful.

HISTORY.

maisie's mom and dad were high school sweethearts. there was nothing that they didn't do together. they built their entire life in england that was perfect for their small family. however, all felt like it came crashing down when maisie's mom became sick. she died when maisie was six, leaving the small girl devastated. maisie knew she needed to be strong for her family, it is what her mom would have wanted for them.

maisie doesn't talk about her mom much anymore, but she obviously still loves her and wishes she could watch her grow more as an adult.

maisie is the oldest of three children. maisie loves her younger siblings. they would run around england together, finding new adventures in anything that they could find. they loved everything about england; it was where they all had grown up. music has always been highly involved in their life. her dad was in his own little garage band that would do local gigs at the pub. she could remember watching him from one of the barstools, a cheeky grin on her lips as she was captured into his performance. 

maisie knew from a young age that music was going to be such a huge thing in her life. so much so that she asked her father if they could move to the states. although england had a special place in their heart, it reminded them so much of their mom. maisie wanted to experience new scenery, she wanted to experience what the states could give has a musician. 

maisie met the jacksons shortly after they moved to ivywood. she became close with them as she began to be more around elliot. maisie always loved elliot, it was like a schoolboy crush at first that developed into her first love, even if he never knew it. she was always there for him, and had decided to wait for him while he worked on himself through the years. of course, this took a turn when a mysterious boy swept her off her feet.

her and the boy were infatuated with each other, spending almost every waking moment with him. they soon began dating which meant she spent less time with elliot. they were on and off for a few years. when they decided to call it quits the last time, maisie knew she needed to work on herself. a lot of growth came from this relationship, including her own music becoming more mature when she began to start to love herself more. she no longer dreamt of ‘why can’t we be like that’ relationships.

HEADCANONS.

she has a problem with not sleeping. like she never sleeps, ever. she basically lives off a mixture of energy drinks and coffee.

she has a lot of music out, but isn’t passionate enough to make it her whole career. she owns poet’s garden and spends most of her time there. a lot of her music is little mix songs for obvious reasons. most of their music is what she has out, but not all of it.

WANTED CONNECTIONS.

a ship. please give her a himbo to love.

friends that she met when she moved here in ivywood (she was thirteen).

her siblings (both younger than 28)

her toxic ex (we can plot this more!)

You may think you know my story. Many have told it. It has long passed into history, into myth. I have seen more of heaven and hell than most people dream of. But I was always a willful girl and followed my heart and spoke my mind. And it is high time that I told you my story myself.

elena loved being an elementary teacher. some days she left the school on an adrenaline rush, happy that the students would finally understand the topic that they were working on. other days seemed that a tornado flew around her classroom and she was exhausted. today was one of those days. she had just left the coffee shop with her fall inspired crafted drink when she felt someone run right into her. although she had saved her coffee from spilling, but that luck didn’t save his. “no, no, it’s okay, i promise. maybe i wasn’t looking either,” elena fumbled with her words, finally looking at the other. of course, it was a handsome stranger. usually elena was good with her words, but the words weren’t forming from her lips. “i, uh, i can get you a new cup of coffee if you’d like?”

  starter for @devincly​ for elena ! 

  to say that ezra was having a shitty week would be an understatement. between his brother giving him a black eye to an anonymous person outing his family secrets, he was having a hard time juggling it all. which is why maybe he wasn’t paying attention to where he was walking, making him run right into a stranger on the sidewalk. he let out a small curse as he dropped his coffee making it spill everywhere, perfect. “god I am so sorr-”, he stops when his eyes land on the beautiful woman in front of him, “sorry, I’m really sorry I wasn’t paying attention.” just his luck not only did he drop his coffee but he made himself look like a dumbass in front of a gorgeous stranger.

               The  area  of  his  arm  that  had  brushed  up  against  the  woman  had  the  strangest  feeling,  like  that  one  little  section  had  pins  and  needles  out  of  nowhere.  His  other  hand  went  up  to  the  spot  before  turning  to  finally  get  a  look  at  the  person  he’d  made  contact  with.  He  stopped  in  his  tracks,  as  if  compelled  to.  “  I…  Uh,  I’m  gonna  sound  totally  insane,  but  have  we  met  before?  ”  He  found  himself  asking  before  he  could  stop  himself.  “  My  name’s  Luke,  if  that  helps?  Luke  Patterson?  You  just…  I  feel  like  I  know  you.  ”

the strange sensation tickled her skin, it was almost like he had touched her arm before. “no, uh. i don’t think we’ve met before. especially since i would remember you if i did.. i mean—..” julie caught herself over her words like usual, and simply shook her head lightly at herself before looking back up at him. she always had a way of embarrassing herself in front of someone, especially if she found them attractive. hell, she was always a loss at words when she was around nick. “i’m, uh.. julie molina,” she introduced herself.

               Jude’s  art  was  his  one  true  passion  in  life.  It  was  his  way  to  escape  the  shitty  situation  that  he  found  himself  in  right  now.  He’d  been  told  throughout  his  whole  life  that  he  needed  to  found  an  outlet  for  his  emotions,  and  once  he’d  discovered  art,  and  eventually  tattooing,  he  knew  it  was  something  that  he  could  love.  He  considered  himself  lucky  that  he  got  to  do  what  he  loved  every  day.  “  Grace?  ”  Jude’s  eyes  widened  slightly.  “  I  think  you  know  my  girlfriend.  Indie?  ”  A  little  bit  of  a  long  shot,  considering  how  many  Graces  there  were  in  the  world,  but  it  was  worth  a  try.

grace always had the idea of a perfect daughter in her mind. it didn’t help that her parents had engraved it into her brain, so the thought of straying away from that perfect fantasy frightened her. one thing that brought her peace in mind was having a garden and working at a greenhouse when she wasn’t at school. at first, grace didn’t put two and two together until he mentioned indie. “oh! no wonder your name seemed familiar. yeah, i’m grace. we’re friends,” grace nodded, a small smile settled on her lips. she still had the new information about her pregnancy in the back of her mind, but she didn’t want to mention it so casually.

Skinny Dipping Behind The Scenes

being sucked back into ivywood didn’t go so well for julie. she didn’t remember who sunset curve was; she didn’t remember that trevor wilson was actually bobby. all she remembered was her mom passing away. she thought that after she passed, her family moved out here to ivywood where they started fresh. it had been julie’s idea all along, or so she thought. she missed los angeles with her whole heart, but her tía always said that moving on is healing. julie tried to move on, but she couldn’t. she missed her mom so much. hell, even music wasn’t the same without her mom. julie had walked out of a coffee shop, making it a few steps down the path when she felt someone bump into her. luckily, her drink hadn’t spilled. “no, it’s fine. i-- i wasn’t either,” julie nodded, looking towards the other.

@devincly​  requested  a  starter!

               Luke  was  pissed.  His  band  had  finally  gotten  the  opportunity  they’d  always  dreamed  of,  and  suddenly  it  was  pulled  away  from  him  in  the  blink  of  an  eye.  Shit  like  this  didn’t  just  happen,  but  in  Ivywood  it  looked  like  anything  went.  Still,  that  didn’t  mean  that  he  wasn’t  still  down,  and  as  he  walked  down  the  street  with  his  eyes  down,  he  felt  himself  bump  into  someone.  “  Hey,  sorry,  I  wasn’t  paying  attention  to  where  I  was  going.  ”

on an average day, lydia would ignore stiles’ presence. that was until he and scott would somehow conjure up another problem for their small group. hell, lydia didn’t know how she even got grouped up with them, well, if it wasn’t for allison. lydia felt like she had been in ivywood for months, way too long in her opinion. she kept dreaming of the day that something extraordinary would happen here, and maybe that would lure their little group to ivywood. there had to be a reason for lydia to be there, right? she wondered if it had anything to do with her being a banshee. lydia decided to go to the university’s library to work on homework. she wasn’t exactly prepared to see stiles there, she almost had to do a double take. normally she wouldn’t have looked at him this long, but something in her rejoiced in the look of a friend. “stiles?” she questions, wanting to make sure that he was who she thought he was.

closed starter for lydia @devincly​

stiles may only be signed up for two classes a semester at the university, but he fully utilized the school’s library. he probably spent more time there than in actual classes. but he’s researching – trying to figure out what the hell is going on in this town. books spread across the table, he has a pencil situated between his lips while he scans the book in front of him. it takes him a minute to notice that someone is looking at him, and finally he drops the pencil and looks up to meet their gaze. shifting awkwardly in his seat he starts pulling the books closer to him, assuming they’re annoyed he’s taking up the entire table. “sorry, i didn’t realize i was taking up the whole thing.” stiles quickly apologized.
