kelley patrick gaston
so, let's start off with the basics. what's your name?name... kay well. it's kelley. shut the hell up okay, there are worse names out there for a guy than kelley, all right? my full name's kelley patrick gaston, but just kelley, all right? i don't know what my parents were on when they named me. i guess they thought they were going to have a girl... and then i turned up? yeah. uuhm... nickname wise there isn't much. you know, kell, lee, jokers who call me gaston from beauty and the beast... one girl i used to know called me killz for the looks i gave her, so i guess that's one...
oh, it's a nice name! now, would you mind telling us how old you are?thanks? and i turned twenty a few weeks back. june fourth.
really? you look much younger! well, let's get started. first off, what are you on this tour?psh bitch please, you don't know who i am? .... wow i just pulled a miley cyrus, god shoot me... anyways. i'm the vocalist for all for dayna. you've probably heard of us.
oh! so how did you first get involved with batteries not included records?well, garret's ex girlfriend now turned out to be the head of the photography part of the company and she got one of the talent scouts to check us out, and ... well the talent scout loved us to death, and got us signed a few months later. there's really nothing to it.
oh gosh, really? all right, so, how are you enjoying it so far?it's been pretty damn good. you know, playing small clubs and what not. it's a pretty good life. sure, still in LA, but it's better than where all those minor tween bands are, you know?
that's great! so, what do you do in your free time when you are not working?well, a lot of the things i used to do kind of stopped now that i have dayna, but besides her, music is one of my favorite things in the world. you know, making it, listening to it, selling it illegally... that last one's a joke, don't call anyone please. uuuh... i like skateboarding; haven't gotten a chance in a while. i guess i still like some of my childhood hobbies. you know, random sports, running, skateboarding... watching movies, those kinds of things.
oh, i love some of those too! looks like we have alot in common.uuuh.... yeah that's.... really great?
so, how has your romantic past been?harharhar. well that's just a long story. in short, my past romances were mostly one night things, you know? i think in the past i've had a total of three actual relationships. the best was with my last one, dayna elizabeth crawford.
and what about now? is that any better? any different?at the moment, there's no one. i have my daughter dayna; she more than enough.
oh, i see.. hmm... and, what would you say are your turn ons? do you have any turn offs?huhh.... well i guess i really hate it when someone talks about themselves so much that you can't get a word in. or those girls that expect you to just only compliment them and not attempt any conversation. it's kind of boring, you know? sometimes we guys want to talk, not just have fucking sex. turn ons.... if the girl is really sweet, that's all i really think i would like. oh, being able to kind of put up with me and the guys, i think that would be a great one haha. and, just between you and me, i 'm a sucker for blondes and brunettes.
ooh, that's understandable, mhm. so, give us a bit of detail about yourself.oh, you're not asking for much are you. well. just from what you're seeing now, it's different from who i used to be. i used to be the kid all the other kids parents would want their sons and daughters to stay away from. i used to be this huge jackass, really. i would sneak into parties and get involved with the wrong crowd. you know, underaged drinking, underaged drugs, and all that stuff. hey, i managed to learn to make weed brownies when i was only fifteen. i got involved with that crows really early. i guess after i had dayna, i kind of grew up. i knew i had to; i couldn't be the same way with a daughter, you know? so the partying is kind of put on hold at the moment, you know? i mean sure, at times i'll go out with the guys and grace or someone will watch dayna, but most of the time i'm with her. so i'm a lot more relaxed than i used to be. i mean, i watch out for a lot of things now; i guess being a parent makes you more aware or whatever. i mean, i never used to give a crap about it all, but i swear every where i look i'm constantly making sure it's safe. it's gotten to the point where i'm actually kind of worried on stage for stupid shit; i used to not be afraid of stage diving, or people who would throw beer bottles at us if they thought we sucked. now i'm just kind of paranoid about it half the time. or it might be withdrawls... who knows. uuhm, oh personality yeah. ... i'm still pretty sarcastic, according to garret. and to the guys i'm still a "fucking douche", according to parker. yeah, the midget in the band.
mhmm. well you sound like a fun young man. now, is there anything about your past?well, my mom and dad; hank and laura, if you were curious, after me they decided no more kids. i think they were afraid of having another screw up. i'll admit it, i am a screw up. i mean, once i got into middle school... welll it's middle school. you get into all sorts of shit then; girls, drinking, drugs, the works. i got in with this group when i was in seventh grade with weed, left them right before i got out of eighth grade. i met garret and the guys when we all started highschool. i don't know how starting a band because a part of our agenda; i think we were just bull shitting some cover songs and we were like 'hey let's be a band'. no lie, i swear that's how it happened. so yeah, garret's ex grace, when she got her job, hooked us up with this, so i guess we kind of owe her? course i'd never heard about the damn label, but now it's one of my favorite. yeah, i'm awfullly biased at the moment. so. uuuh.... during all that, i had one girlfriend for three years. it was surprising, because most of the time it was me sleeping around, or ... it just not lasting, you know? dayna was just amazing, really. me and her were like, one of those "it" couples you know? people knew about you and all that shit. people knew us, it's true. we didn't exactly try and hide or anything. then she got pregnant, and i swear to God my heart had stopped right then and there. we thought about aborting but she got cold feet at the last minute. and we decided we would keep the baby. i mean, i was actually excited. dude, becoming a father and everything? it was like, my dream. almost. but yeah; i'd gotten dayna a promise ring. we were set, dude. we had everything. then, when our daughter was born, dayna herself, she didn't make it. doctors told me some shit story. lost too much blood while giving birth. my heart just stopped again at that moment. after our daughter, dayna jeanette gaston, was born, i left her with my parents for a while. at first i wanted nothing to do with the kid. i'd gone back to the drinking, the drugs, the parties, all that shit. after a while, i thought about it, and i didn't want to leave her like that. i had already considered foster families and if i should just give her up but i couldn't. i didn't have the heart to do it at all. once, when i went to see her at my parents, she looked up at me and laughed, and i swear to god she looked like her mother did. i guess that's what did it. i swear, i wanted to punch myself for even considering getting rid of her. i didn't though; garret had already gotten there already. so yeah. she's on tour with us too; sometimes our manager watches her, i watch her most of the other time, and when grace is free she takes care of her. it's working out pretty well now.
ahh.. all right, so. tell me some of the things you like.... i just like, opened up to you or whatever and now you expect me to talk more? jeez. all right. uuhm... like i said earlier, music is one of the biggest things, only beaten out by dayna. uuuh... i love plaid shirts, i don't know why i just do. starbucks coffee is the boss, even though it's expensive as shit. i still like the taste of alcohol, and of my weed brownies, but of course, since i can't make those/drink that anymore. i actually like cooking; shut the fuck up i see you laughing over there. i cook, it's true. i had to kind of learn how. anyways, uuuh... texting, but what twenty year old doesn't? ... i spend most night staying up, because i like staying up. i love sleeping throughout the day; it just seems easier to sleep during the day for me i think.
and what about dislikes?dislikes, huh. i hate dark chocolate; that stuff is nasty. i also hated pretzels. i don't know why; they're just always salted a lot and they just taste really weird to me, you know? i had those people that feel like they need to know every fucking detail of every single thing that happens; it's like what the fuck you don't need to know any of that. i also hate people that read over my shoulder while i'm texting; it's like, uh, if i wanted you to know what i was texting, i would have showed you my fucking phone, wouldn't i? i hate those people that judge me because of dayna. i mean, especially those old people that think that they are all holy and saintly and saying that i should've just kept my dick in my pants or whatever, it's like, you had a thousand and two kids, i don't think you can criticize me.
do you have any dirty little secrets you wanna share?what the hell why would i tell you? ........... all right. one secret i have is that, a few times, i seriously wonder if i'm ... i guess meant to raise my daughter. if dayna would think i was doing a good job. i guess.... you can say i feeel .... well.... all right i feel like i'm a fuck up as a father, all right?
ooh, that is deeeeeep. well this interview is almost done, do you have anything else you want to say?...... this took too fucking long.
so heyy, my name is riniii and i'm seventeen years old. i've been roleplaying for seven years roleplaying, so i think i am pretty damn good. so, my character stole the face of john cornelius o'callaghan the fifth, just thought you should know. oh, and also: admit edit babe thanks for reading! oh, and below is my roleplay sample. :]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
adelaide had yet to head down to to drop dead beats since she'd moved in to germany last year. she'd never even heard if any of her friends were going there, or if they had even gotten a gig there, so she never had much of a reason to. but now she really did. as she got herself ready that night, she remembered the conversation she had over instant messanger with tabor, a guy that went to wilhelm. it had all started with her jokingly saying she'll offer him money to get a new guitar that he broke, and it just went from there. by the end of the conversation, they had made a plan. a plan for her to be there to check out his band. it was quite a tempting offer, and for some reason addie was nervous. she had no idea why. did she really expect to be let down or something? she didn't think so but she felt like there might have been some sort of catch. but she could find none, so she had to believe the offer. or else why would she be in front of her mirror getting herself ready? for no reason like this, certainly. as she brushed her hair, she tilted her head as she looked at herself. what exactly was she going to tell her grandmother? she felt like her grandma would understand she was heading down there; surely her grandmother had heard of the place? she shrugged unconsciously as she stood up; she'd have to deal with it. she should have at least been glad that addie was getting out of the house for once.
she looked herself over once more to make sure she was okay. wearing dark blue skinny jeans, a dark gray Beatles shirt, and her green Chuck Taylors, she was sure she was looking pretty decent. grabbing her phone and her wallet, just in case, she opened her door and skipped down the stairs. glancing into the living room, she saw her grandmother watching what seemed to be some sort of game show. not even bothering to try and figure out what was going on, she walked over and quickly explained where she was going. since all she received was a nod and a 'sure', she assumed it was fine. waving, and saying, goodbye, she grabbed her purple and black striped hoodie and the spare keys, and walked out the door. slipping on her jacket as she stood out on the doorstep, she glanced around for a minute before she realized that she would have to walk down to the club. frowning slightly, she just shrugged it off as she walked down the three stairs in front of the door, and headed out.
walking down toward drop dead beats wasn't too bad, actually. sure, it was a bit lonely since everyone either drove, had someone to drive them, or were already at their location, but it was fun to just walk. you noticed things you didn't notice whenever you were in a car. she ended up seeing some of the buildings truly for the first time. she hadn't really been around since she moved from the states to germany. she still hadn't made a lot of friends, despite being here for almost a year, but she knew it would take some time. heck, school had just started, so... she shrugged mentally as she shoved her hands into her pockets. it was slightly cold, what was wrong with that. taking a bit faster steps, she walked the full fifteen minute walk to the club. she pulled her phone out as she neared, and saw that she was right on time, almost. it was about eight thirty, give or take a few minutes, so she was pretty good on time. as she stood in line, she saw people there with their significant others, being just naturally disgusting with their PDA. she sighed, rolling her eyes as she waited, her foot tapping anxiously. she didn't even have tabor's number yet to even tell him she was outside. oh well, she'd have to tell him when she got in there.
it took a while, but finally, addie found herself outside. she told the bouncer her name, and that her friend tabor had told her to come by. the look the guy had given her was slightly unnerving, but he let her in nonetheless, and she smiled, thanking the man as she walked in. her eyes widened slightly as she looked around. the place was pretty packed already. feeling a bit awkward already, she pushed through the crowd, or at least tried to. she was tiny enough to walk through people without having to worry about them shoving her because they think she's going to start a fight or whatever. some people were paranoid like that in the states, she knew perfectly well. anyways, walking through, she made it pretty damn close to the front stage, where the next band was just being introduced. it took her a minute to realize it was tabor's band that was being introduced. she really had no idea until the band walked up, and she noticed that it was him. she could immediately tell, though she wasn't too sure how. she just had an amazing feeling that it was him. smiling slightly, she listened to a few introduction words before the band started playing. after only about two minutes, she knew she liked them already.
after about twenty minutes, she realized their set was over for now. she didn't really know what to do with herself, but she figured out what. after inadvertently eavesdropping on the girls around her, she pushed her way through till she reached the entrance to the backroom. it was kind of like backstage, but.. a room, sort of? that's what she heard, anyways. she figured it would be fine to just wait for him outside the room rather than go inside it. she didn't feel too comfortable with doing that just yet. besides, who knew who was in that backroom anyways? so, she leaned against the wall off to the side of the stage for when the band walked off, and decided to just wait it out. hey, it was better than nothing! as soon as she saw him, however, she smiled and waved her hand somewhat shyly, since the others were still around. she was still kind of bad with talking to other people.
