To introduce myself, I am an author that used to be very prolific around these parts. I started out in 2003 and left in summer 2004 when they wouldn't allow story fics anymore. But I continued to post on and posted over 100 SP fics over 3 1/2 yearsyou can see them at http://www.w338puq3y.homepage.t-online.de/viewuser.php?uid967 I was regarded as one of the best SP authors in my circle of friends, but my fics started to decline, I had feuds with those friends, and I lost interest, so I stopped writing the fics in mid August. But now, I'm coming out of semi retirement to start anew, though my fics will now be one shot ones instead of continuing my defunct series.
This is my first new one, and will sound familar to those who know me, and know I hate seeing my favorite character Butters be abused and screwed over all the time on the show, and I don't like how they ruined the Stan/Wendy relationship and made it easy for the majority of SP fans and writers to hate Wendy either. Since I regard Wendy and Butters as the most mistreated characters on the showButters for the crap they put him through and Wendy for all but ruining her character after the SP movie and after Mary Kay Bergman died, for different reasons, they are the stars in this one.
Assume for a moment that you are a visitor of South Park High School. After you assume you know what the hell that place is and who the hell works there, and after you've done some research to confirm this, you'll know what the hell I'm talking about here. Which would be how utterly normal some things are.
Normal? South Park? Assume I'm not on drugs for a moment and actually listen to me defend that. If any actual town isn't normal, it's that one, you didn't need to do any research for that. But let's skip the monsters and the celebrity visits and the occasional saving the world, and even the odd attempts to commit genocide against the Jews that Eric Cartman fails at at least once a year. Let's just examine the school itself. And here, the social order is entirely normal looking.
Jocks, geniuses, hot girls, hot boys, middle of the road people, nerds and so called "Pussies", people at the bottom of the social food chain- here is where there is nothing out of the ordinary to be found. For a town that bends the status quo and pushes the envelope constantly, absolutly no evidence of those guts is found here. No attempts are made to change the order of things in this place. Nothing radical or mind blowing or Establishment challenging here. Everyone is in the same assigned social standings that have been in every town the country and world over, and no one questions it. This is a town that has weird things and mind bending things no one has ever seen before, and things that really make people think about the world at least 14 times a year. But again, when it comes to the subject of how peers are viewed and the fairness of the status quo in school world, they are as much unthinking drones as the idiots that are so often mocked everywhere else in town.
So in that case, two cases in this school are as utterly normal as you can get.
One, the unofficial, but practically official enough, whipping boy of the whole school. You know the type- friendless, used for everything imaginable, taking the fall for everything when stuff goes down bad, thought of as nothing more than a gay weakling who's probably a flamer for real because he won't yell or curse or act like he has even one ball. This is a common figure in every school, and since no one has the balls themselves to address and try to fix this, this kind of person is utterly normal and commonplace around here. Every non sexual abuse has come down on him at one point or another over the course of about 8 years, which is when they first used him when it got too old to torture a British kid. And since this kind of person is needed for school, and no one bothers to think this person should be helped in actual helpful ways instead of shunned and ignored, there's almost no need for him to speak out and face whatever feelings he has over this. Perfectly common, almost unremarkable to the unaware eye.
This was the most put upon, misunderstood, negatively thought of person at that school.
And astonishingly, someone from the other side of the popularity chain almost had him beat...in at least the last two catagories.
Now this was someone far more acceptable to the discriminating eye, in more ways than one. It was a girl, so you could hardly get way with abusing a girl without being sued by a million politicially correct lawyers these days. It wasn't an ugly girl, so it was more acceptable to put her in with the in crowd. It was a girl who a few drooled over and who wasn't attached, so more points for her. It was someone who was a certified genius ever since she first got tested, but since she was a hot girl, she didn't get worked over and mocked and shunned for it- at least not that much. Being a rather outspoken figure on world issues did make her different from the majority of this place, but it worked to impress the right people in the administration. This was the shining star who would be a rare case of doing something useful outside of this town. Everything looked perfect in this case.
However, having pushed aside a fair share of boys when she was younger, having made it easy for others to see her as arrogant, having made it easy to show a burning temper beneath all the glamour, having actually murdered someone in secret 8 years ago, having her rants against politics seem like grandstanding and spotlight hogging, and having almost no one she knew in school actually respect her and think well of her when they were behind her back- now you see a couple things unperfect. But I guess this is common too- someone who thinks everything is great and that she's been doing great, but who almost everyone really doesn't like at all deep down without her knowing about it.
But even if she was aware that some didn't like her, it's because they didn't understand her and were against her views and didn't know what they were talking about, right? She had all the right views on life and all the right answers to everything- she had to be as brilliant and well off as everyone said, right? Right.
And so, these are our two seemingly unremarkable cases. The picked on "pussy" hated by almost all, and the have it all, know it all girl also hated by almost all- one knowing about it all too well, and one not knowing it at all. One treated as worthless so often that it must have been true, and one treated as perfect even when it wasn't true.
These characters, for being so incredibly different, are truely the least thought of, hated, and most disrespected by the powers that be in this group.
So what happens when they finally have a reason to actually interact with each other?
