oh shit, thank you, don't know how i overlooked that! makes more sense for her to have less going on, she is prepping her directorial debut! mae still would've visited her in new orleans though if the invitation was extended or not.
at least from this description it seems like they would get along really well. mae's been out since she was a teenager as well, though she never really thought of it as coming out since her parents sort of life a completely separate life from her. she's just always functioned without an "adult presence" which has molded her into something of cliche in that wild child aspect. though growing up she was more the type to want to graffiti a wall with a political statement than she is to just party with all the popular kids~~ (though she did a lot of that too - and they all thought she was weird as hell, and yeah there was a goth phase - but she was hot and rich so she was still embraced in beverly hills). ANYWAY, she's very, very chill personality wise, but she likes to fuck with the reality of the world around her, she's always talking to strangers and playing ridiculous mind games with them, or wanting to run around and do whatever she wants when she wants.
mae is similar in how she is only close to a few people but always seems like she is closer to said people. also a charmer. maybe they're still building their friendship (which is always a great jumping off point in rp anyway)? mae also has a bad habit of trying to sleep with her friends (she's not a relationship type person) so that's an option too.
