I was mad I made Rachel cry at the Green Eyed Monster (I sound all self centered at that, but I really mean to make people laugh at my stories)<br /><br />But yeah, I'm really weird with Stan. I feel bad. Really, I do. I call it Danger Slutting, which is a term I took from cracked.com. It's kind of a fan fic thing I've seen with others where people will like a certain character in pain or danger or death or whatever. I guess my like for Stan kinda manifested itself in a weird Shelly like poking at in stories. I feel guilty for it, it's why I don't really like working on AA that much.<br /><br />I'm trying to scrape my mind for my upcoming work if Stan is actually happy in any of my stories. Mostly yeah if he's not the main focus, but if he is I like him all annoyed and angry. The only reasonable thing I can do to make up for my guilt is poke extreme fun at myself, I started a story with something kinda bad happening to Stan in the background while there's a more important story going on in the foreground. Derp.<br /><br />Also I was joking with John how I'm a fan fic one trick pony, I pick a character, basically torture them throughout the scene while everyone else has the time of their lives. Wendy in Green Eyed Monster, Stan in this, Marsh Family Thanksgiving, Every Bit As Good As Kyle, parts of Abnormally Average, Kenny in Nothing Rhymes With Orange and AA, Kyle in AA. That fic is fucked up. Meh.

On the one hand, Stan's been having a really bad time in your fics, and I hope he has some happier times ahead. On the other hand, I feel really sorry for Butters, despite him being partially responsible for Stan's misery. I mean, the poor guy just wants to be popular. Is that too much to ask?Marcus Absenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02833399226735178385noreply@blogger.com
