Fic: It's Hard to Know They're Out There

Well, okay. I was going to spend today working on the epilogue to Unwed Fathers, but I was in kind of a weird mood, and then I heard this song for the first time and couldn't stop listening to it, and I'd immediately had this idea when I heard it, tried to fight it, but the nonstop listening pretty much sealed it.

Title: It's Hard to Know They're

Thank you! I'm glad they felt like they were still in character ~ I think that's my most important goal, always. I'm the same way about dead characters, and I've had all these weird/dark SP ideas lately, then when I heard this song this one solidified more than any of the others had. I'm glad you liked Stan and Kyle's connection in this - they are my second most important thing, always, haha. Even if the story isn't entirely about them.

I have actually considered doing a crime spree story about them! I want to do something with Kyle post-Humancentipad, and how he changes, and how Stan is terrified to see it. I'd probably take a more victimy angle, but that's been done to death with Kyle, so it would be interesting, maybe, to have him turn into someone with some kind of bloodlust or just dangerous recklessness, because Stan would totally let himself be dragged along for the ride. I will use certain events having to do with Farmville to justify everything Stan does for Kyle, including murder, lol. That was like, more important than manipulating someone into giving an internal organ to Kyle. Which was also important. :D

OMG YES PLEASE DO THIS what are you /how are you human/ omg that sounds like just about the most glorious thing ever!! Yes Stan and Kyle have a special connection even in the after life sdfkljlk ;~~~;

But seriously, murderous!Kyle sounds GLORIOUS and does that make me sound sadistic? I think that makes me sound sadistic. But that just seems so perfect and I can see this SO REAL post-Humancentipad Kyle murderous and shit omg I just flails all over you. And Stan just being like "OKAY DEAR I'LL LISTEN TO YOUR PROBLEMS" and Kyle would be like "I GOT ANGRY AT THIS GUY TODAY SO I KILLED HIM" and Stan just "IT'S OKAY I UNDERSTAND THAT YOU KILL PEOPLE TO RELIEVE YOUR ANGER" sldkfjlkj I apologize if this comment is completely incoherent oTL

I really want to! I've wanted to write this sort of Bonnie and Clyde story in several fandoms in the past and it never felt right, but if Kyle snapped Stan would be right there, mopping up the evidence ...

But nah you don't sound sadistic, I just think it would be interesting -- and I truly don't think Kyle could ever be Cartman, who is an actual sadist (at least as a kid. I like to believe that he'd grow out of it, 'cause he loves his kitty and stuff), but that after being pushed in so many weird and awful ways but his South Park upbringing, he might get seriously twisted. And Stan would just start seeing him as a baby cow who needed to be protected :xx
