At long last.
One of my favorite S/K fanfics updated - check it out! If you like AUs or Kyle being imperfectly protected/shown the ropes by Stan in general, you will love it.
Just rewatched the Star Trek: 2009 movie and put my old Star Trek fics up on AO3. Thanks to those who asked/reminded me to do so. It’s very weird to look back on these fics with so much distance! Really looking forward to seeing the new movie tomorrow, after having rewatched this one. Even though I accidentally bought 3D tickets. :{
asdfjdifjdoifdjo I get so excited when I see your drawings on my dash, oh man. I love this.

I wrote a sort of crappy one-shot last night.
For Aquifoliaceae Ilex opaca (aka Holly) who is the only person who will listen to my rambling about plants.
It all started when Stan began a tree identification course at CSU. It was required for his Natural Resources degree, and though he was thoroughly interested in all things outdoorsy, the course seemed like overkill. By the end he’d have to be able to identify 180 plants, and know the common and scientific name of each one, as well as the region in which it grew. He tried not to let that overwhelm him, though, and knew that if he took it one week at a time (and enlisted Kyle’s help for his studying) that he could get through it. Maybe. He and Kyle devised a study schedule, and went from there.
Every week there were more and more plants, and they’d often blend together (“How many damn pine trees are there?” Stan shouted one stressful evening.), but every once in a while a plant would have an absolute gem of a name. Stan never hesitated to point these out to Kyle.
“Check it out,” he said on the third week of his course, “Juglans cinera… common name: butternut.”
This is so cute, and all of their exchanges are great, totally in character - Stan having well-intentioned Randy moments in his attempt to entertain Kyle!! And Kyle saying he has THINGS TO DO before storming away is perfect. This is an adorable concept that works really well for them - and I love how Kyle is bristly right up until the very end, it makes that last line of his really effective. :3
Thank you so much for this, Sarah!! It brightened my increasingly stressful afternoon.
They could post these f/f prompts to the kink meme?
Yeah, I would like it if the kink meme got going again. The old dead one got deleted for disuse, which is sad I guess (were any of the fills good?) but hopefully now the one with 1000+ comments and 50+ quality fills will be the first search result on Google.
If anyone has ideas for how to do a fill-fest or something, let me know and I’ll happily promote it/participate. We should probably wait until the show comes back, though. And on a more selfish level I’d like to finish some stuff before trying to do fills there again. I wish others would, though!
1. Thank you for these prompts! (And for reading the Gatsby inspired fic, I’m glad you’re into it.) I do want to try to write Kyle as a girl sometime. I’m posting all of them here in case they inspire someone else, and my personal favorite is the second one - I really want to write Kyle with a period, apparently, probably inspired by Marilyn’s treatment of it (where is Marilyn, does anyone know? I think her laptop died, but I was hoping it wouldn’t keep her away this long.) I also agree with you that something needs to be done, fic-wise, with Jersey Kyle. Maybe not an all-out werewolf-style Kyle becoming Jersey, but like, an AU where Sheila had him at a younger age/with a different father? And he’s different because of it, maybe not over the top like on the show, but with gel in his hair and having spent time in juvenile hall for fighting? And then he moves to South Park and meets Stan?? Lots of question marks. I’m putting a cap on new fic ideas until I finish War AU, that request list, and possibly Lab Rats, but girl Kyle and Jersey Kyle are still on my larger, vaguer list of things to try.
2. I’m not opposed to writing femslash, but I’ve never felt a burning desire to do so in ten or so years of fandom activity, so I think the chances of me being overcome with love for a f/f couple to the point that I wanted to write about them are slim - but you never know. There’s a lot of things I once thought I would never care about doing, like mpreg. I do like the idea of pairing Kyle as a girl with Stan as a girl, actually, and have really enjoyed some of the fan art to that effect.
3. Thank you so much! I’m insecure about that Gatsby story, and one of the reasons is that I feel like I’ve gotten too attached to this particular dynamic and I’m afraid I’m starting to write the same story over and over … so I’m glad to hear the stories feel different enough to be interesting, generally. And yes, Nothing Sacred (I type ‘Scared’ every time jesus) is definitely a Style fic: Stan’s feelings toward Kyle (and Kyle’s toward him, less blatantly) are a major theme to the end.
Anonymous asked: Hey, I read one of your posts that you were going to write a fic where Stan is going bad boy to impress Kyle. Are you still going to write that, it sounds very interesting:))
Yeah, I would like to try it, that could be really funny. I’ll add it to my list of requests that I’m going to attempt after War AU is done. Thanks for asking!

I mostly want to make a pointless post about how this is one of my favorite movies ever, EVER!! But I feel like I should also bring it around to South Park somehow, so here’s a “headcanon”: from the ages of 13-14 Clyde has an otherkin “beaver” personality. He’s really into otherkin message boards and chats for a while, but then he gets marginally cuter and starts to have a more typical social life, and he hooks up with Craig. They have a long and relatively healthy relationship, and at some point in their twenties Clyde confesses to Craig that sometimes, when they’re having sex, he’s imagining that they’re both gay beavers. Craig just stares at him for a while, and Clyde is starting to sweat, wondering if he should pretend he was joking! Then Craig says he’s fine with it and makes Clyde a beaver tail out of felt and allows him to wear it in bed (sometimes).

Anonymous asked: When did Stan in the Scenic route start to watch gay porn when he was in colleges and realised that he wanted Kyle?
Hmmmmm - he probably looked at it fairly soon after Kyle tried to kiss him, to make sure he didn’t like it. And he didn’t! Most porn is awful. But then he kept going back to investigate/trying to find something featuring guys that he did like, sort of afraid that he would, thinking more about Kyle and eventually realizing he was looking for a video OF KYLE in a sense.
