alex   usually   did   not   have   that   worry   with   only   being   5′   7″   (   the   emerson   men   were   not   tall   )   ,   but   he   looked   from   the   height   poster   to   the   worker   working   .   of   course   it   being   a   bored   looking   teenage   who   didn’t   take   the   job   (   or   the   risk   of   the   ride   )   too   seriously   .   “   yeah   i   think   you   could   ,   ”   alex   responded   ,   nodding   his   head   .  

Greyson had also noticed the non-attentive worker who had been scrolling through their phone and hadn’t yet once checked anybody for height. Greyson noticed the abundance of kids waiting in line and chuckled before shaking his head. “Probably could, but maybe I shouldn’t.” He chuckled before motioning to all the children waiting in line. “I think I should just stick to playing these rigged games.” He sighed, looking over at a booth he had just previously lost money at.

Face claim: Rege-Jean Page

Biography: 

tw; alcohol, drunk driving, death, car accident

Greyson Boyd was born in Maple Creek, where his father and mother raised him for around 3 years. Before him, his father had been living in Maple Creek all his life and owned his own dental clinic. After having Greyson, his grandmother on his mother’s side became ill and needed their support. His father up and moved their entire family to Wisconsin for the time being, allowing Greyson’s mother to care for his grandmother full-time. Growing up in Wisconsin, his father would tell him stories of the wonderful town called Maple Creek, and how he loved his dental clinic and all the patients he had. Greyson grew so much love for this town he could barely remember, and his father promised to show him the town again when his grandmother was no longer ill.

His family remained in Wisconsin for years, so long that he graduated high school. Following in his father’s footsteps, he went to school of dentistry. His second year of college, his father had tragically passed from a car accident, caused by a reckless drunk driver. This only made Greyson more determined to graduate and go back to Maple Creek and open up his own dental clinic, and that’s exactly what he planned on doing. It took Greyson 8 years to become a dentist, his dedication didn’t allow him to date or commit himself to anyone and anything else. His mother pressured him to settle down and marry but Greyson couldn’t find it in himself to, not until he was back in Maple Creek.

mariahhkenmore​:

Mariah stood in line as Sabrina bounced in her spot next to her. She was so excited to go on her first roller coaster. Grant it, it was a tiny roller coaster that looked like a train and moved at a snail’s pace, but still a roller coaster. They moved up in line as she heard a voice behind them. “Well, it’s a ride for tiny humans.” she grinned pointing at her daughter who politely smiled up to the man. “There’s no harm in asking, but I doubt your long legs could fit in the tiny cars.” she chuckled softly.

Greyson didn’t think anyone had heard him thinking his thoughts out loud. He coyly smiled back at Mariah’s daughter, embarrassed slightly. He could hear little voices shriek with excitement behind him, children voices directing their parents towards the ride. “Correct, tiny humans I am not.” He chuckled before moving out of the way for others to enter. “I’m feeling quite generous today so I think I’ll sit this one out and avoid taking up space that could seat three kids.” He laughed. “I’m Greyson by the way, I just moved here.”

aadenkhanmichaelson​:

Turning to look behind him as he left the truck, filling his hands with all the carnival food, Aaden glanced at the ride behind him. It had been one of his favorites as a child - he’d always called it the ‘frog hopper’ but essentially it was just a seat that were shaped like animals (one of which was indeed a frog) that did quite a bit of ‘hopping’ in the sense of things. He remembered vividly standing in line for what felt like hours as a child just to ensure he was able to get the beloved frog seat. “Honestly, that one was one of my favorites.” he gestured, honestly not even sure if that was the ride the other was talking about. “I used to ride it, well, as many times as people would let me, to be honest, but I do remember that once I hit probably twelve that my legs were just slightly too long to feel comfortable.” he shrugged. “So, i kind of just stopped trying to ride it on my own. That was such a sad day.” he laughed. “I probably wouldn’t recommend riding it, but, I mean, it never hurts to ask.”

Greyson felt a warm smile tug at his lips hearing Aaden’s story behind the ride. “Someone did indirectly say I was short, so maybe I’ll be okay...” He jokingly sighed, then let out a small chuckle and shook his head. “How tall were you at twelve? Maybe to ease my embarrassment of being the only adult you could join me, win-win, right?”

ohxchris​:

Chris had fond and not so fond memories of these rides from when he’d been small enough to ride them. “Oh i wouldn’t risk it.. when i was about 12 you should’ve seen how green my friend went on that thing. It could be older then me.” he chuckled. “But if you want to fight them on it, i’m there with you man.” 

Greyson hesitated and shook his head. “Maybe you’re right,” he chuckled before sighing in disappointment. “I suppose I’ll stick to the games and spend about a hundred dollars trying to win a stuffed animal I could probably buy at the store for twenty.” He light heartedly joked. “Greyson realized how much he had been rambling and turned to peer over at Chris. “Do you enjoy these carnivals?”

harrietxanders​:

Harriet was walking around with her son, both holding donuts and enjoying the busy atmosphere around them. She stopped in front of the ride, that was more her own speed than any of the taller ones and looked over at the voice. “I mean, unless you were a giant. I think you’ll be okay.” She smiled. “You can pretend you’re with us? I get on with the kid,” Harriet said with a laugh. 

Greyson turned over to peer at the voice next to him. “Are you calling me short?” He light-heartedly joked, a small chuckle leaving his lips. “Sure I’m 5′11, but I’m practically 6 foot if you round up, right?” He laughed, before glancing down at her son. "Ah, special VIP? Seems like you’re my ticket in.” Greyson flashed her son a warm smile. He glanced up back at Harriet, “This must be the sole reason you have a kid, right?”

ohxalex​:

Alex had worked in the camp back in the day and she knew a thing or two about being a kid who didn’t care enough about their job to argue. “Maybe throw the kid a ten, I bet he’d be happy to oblige.” She folded her arms. “but let me know if you do… i think i’d need to get some photos of this.” A grin appeared on her lips at the thought of the man squished into the cart. 

Greyson arched a brow curiously. “Considered me convinced.” He shrugged happily and started to walk off, but abruptly stopped in his tracks and turned back. “Come stand in line with me!” He ushered, “I feel like a fool being the only adult...” He whispered underneath his breath in embarrassment.

Greyson walked around the carnival, cotton candy in one hand and tickets in the other. There was a particular ride that caught his attention, although it looked quite small. “Hm,” Greyson stopped in his tracks, gazing at the entrance of the ride. “There’s a height maximum... Usually there’s height minimum for rides.” He paused, “Do you reckon I could sway the worker to let me in?” 

[gxboyd]

Greyson was caught off guard, shyly wiping away any crumbs that could have been clinging to his facial hair. “Oh-” Greyson flashed the camera man a coy smile. “What’s there not to love? Overpriced food, rigged games that never let us win,” He chuckled and shook his head before giving a genuine answer. “No, but uh... I love the rides. Always have as a kid, and I think it’s a beautiful thing for the community to come together like this. It really makes Maple Creek feel alive again.”

“Okay, okay. Do you have anything to say for my blog?” he asked the passerby, his usual cheeky smile on his face. “What do you love about the carnival? About the Island? Why do you think it’s a good thing coming together like this?” He paused. “Or bad, if you feel that way. I don’t judge.”

One day I can be a spaceman, the next day I can be president, the day after that I can travel 200 years into the past. It’s this really freeing profession.
