howard and barbara macavoy, along with their three children grew up in the same trailer park as the mayfields all though out their life, although both families moved several times throughout the years. from diapers these trailer park babies were getting sunburned in the front yard under the texan sun, and lived happily together: until the macavoy's won the texas state lottery. all a sudden their world changed with a bulk payout check of 168 million dollars set on their doorstep, in exchange for a lottery ticket that was given to them as a birthday present. needless to say, they moved out of the trailer park and eventually out of texas because everyone kept bothering them, and in a way the macavoys were bothering everyone else too. after all, they were white trash that just happened to stumble upon this effortlessly acquired money, why did they deserve it more than anyone else? needless to say they found themselves a new york penthouse but still did manage to stay close to the mayfields, and only because they did give their long-time friends a small financial gift, that harley and brooklyn's mother naturally invested in foolish things: spray tans and hand made costumes that were nothing more than fruitless investments. however they did manage as a while to turn their wealth into a vast amount of cash through different establishments, and have become as known as new money.
KENNETH EMORY MACAVOY , TWENTY - TWO , ROBBIE WADGE .
/ kenny has been brooklyn's best friend since they were old enough to play doctor in begindergarden, but throughout the past few years their relationship has still become somewhat strained. jokingly, brooke often likes to refer to kenneth as the "anti-dom" because of the fact that he's the polar opposite of dominic evolette, brooke's long time boyfriend and the father of her daughter, colette. needless to say the two of them don't get along- and it's easy to see why. dominic treats brooklyn like shit- not to say she doesn't deserve it, but kenny's had secret feelings held just for her for years, and he sees that she loves him and has done his best to hold his tongue. kenneth is also the opposite of the classic middle child. he is not lost in the wake of his siblings- in fact, he creates it. working as a bar manager for one of new yorks finest night clubs for the past few years, he's been pressuring his father to loan him enough money to open his own tavern fo the past six months to no avail; this isn't because he needs the money, but because he can't understand why his father will hand out cash to everyone who isn't him. charismatic and quirky, most know who kenny is and just about everyone likes him, but this is all superficial. behind closed doors, he's been helping to run an illegal firearms distribution operation, and by association probably guilty fo a lot of senseless murders. until recently his "business partner" has been threatening to throw in the towel and let the police in on what they've been doing under the counter: kenneth simply can't let this happen.LAURA CLAIRE MACAVOY , NINETEEN , ISABELLE MCNALLY .
/ laura is honestly a little annoying. she's always been the youngest out of the group and because of that she's always felt sort of left in the dust. because of this she comes off as very needy and attention-hungry, atleast to these four. in her group of friends she's actually somewhat popular, although recently she's noticed most of her friends have left her in the dust- since she and her best friend pippa got into a huge argument thus terminating their long term friendship. while laura has kept a brave face, her friends really are her life and she can't believe that they would all choose pippa's side over hers. the stress that she has been going through lately has really caused her to act kind of unusual though. her regularly bubbly personality has become quite quiet, she's really started to fall behind in her classes and one thing she really used to enjoy doing with brooklyn: dance, she no longer wants to do. laura is pretty sure that she is depressed but her family, once again seems so tied up in their lives that they don't notice her mood change or even believe her when she says she's unhappy. they just take it as the regular bullshit; she's about to start her period or she's just being a drama queen. with none of her old friends to turn to and the rest of her family oblivious and maybe even uncaring to her pain, she's running out of spice for life.
KIPPER HOWARD "KIP HOWARD" MACAVOY , TWENTY - FOUR & ANTHON WELLSJO .[/BLOCKQUOTE]
/ kipper, or "kip howard" as his friends call him is actually a pretty cool dude. alright, no he's not- he's sort of strange, he has an unusal obession with the vietnam war and writing poetic one liners, and has been driving a beat up unrestored 1967 impala since he was sixteen years old. more or less, kip was born in the wrong generation. this kid truly acts like he was born in the sixties in every sense of the setiment; to the point that it's not even a joke. however he's always been really well liked, mostly because he doesn't seem to understand that he might be a little strange, and most find that quality endeeing. his group of friends are honestly just as unique as he; a ragtag team of hipsters that rage the underground music scene on a usual basis. he's also harleys ex-boyfriend, which isn't much to say; they were quite young and agreed that they'd both loved each other but just not in that certain way. a standing example of friendship after romance, they still remain close. kips greatest downfall is the fact that he's yet to find his path in life. even after a four year degree in aeronautical science his main source of income comes from a volenteer position at a newly opened medical marijuana dispensary. it's not about the money- it's just about him growing up and deciding if he wants go pursue his career goal dream, which involves some sacrifices, or go with safer plan b.
AND HEATHER.
HEATHER RACHELLE WELLS , TWENTY - THREE , SHERMINE SHAHRIVAR .[/BLOCKQUOTE]
/ even though heather hasn't seen matt in almost a year, her imprint is still heavy on his life. back when they were nineteen, being with heather was like being on top of the world; and that was just how matty felt in regards to her sick with teenage love. being a fashion student with a long-time hobby of playing guitar, it was natural for her to attend art college instead of medical school, and this is where she and matty met. they dated for about a year and a half. all and all, matty would peg heather as the "sad girl." he spent basically their entire relationship catering to her every need and definitely overextended himself. basically, she had a lot of baggage: probably because when she was much younger she was in an abusive relationship that got a little crazy: the guy almost killed her and since then she's been so dysfunctional. because of this matty spent the bulk of their relationship "never being good enough" and eventually became suspicious that she was cheated on him. eventually, he figured it out mostly because it was with more than one person, and word got around and it really destroyed him. basically he asserted himself which isn't really his ~thing but he's done good work to keep heather completely out of his life: atleast physically. the girl always texts him, sends him letters all of which he ignores but somehow she manages to cross his mind every single day.
