The Life of Garth Boomhauer

by ImpishDude2100

Follow the mysteries of life with Garth, who has shown resemblances and becomes theorized as Jeff Boomhauer's possible biological son. He will try to solve the puzzles of where he belongs in the world while dealing with the trauma of growing up too fast at a young age. Will Garth be able to find that missing piece within him by meeting a family and their neighbors in Arlen, Texas?

Author's Note:

[Alrighty, this here fanfiction is going to become my first King Of The Hill concept that I've chosen to develop. During my time watching the animated series since I was younger, and many others made by Mike Judge, I saw an episode in Season 1 of King Of The Hill with this kid named Garth.]

[I've always gotten so interested in Garth I looked up the definition of his name as a keeper of the garden. Another few meanings of Garth are that he is gentle, enclosure, and watchful. All of these give me character ideas of what Garth would behave like in the show. Garth is the son of Eustice Miller's sister, Suzy Miller, who was Boomhauer's old lover that he dated like eleven years ago.]

[Garth is Randy Miller's cousin, and since neither Bobby nor Joseph ever hangs out with Randy, they didn't know Garth all that well. Garth has a speech impediment and is very self-conscious about talking. When he does speak, he mumbles a little bit. To me, Garth, in a psychological sense, is someone who is dealing with the trauma of growing up too fast or being mature beyond his years. And gardening can somewhat be used as a means to distract himself from his problems. But there has to be an explanation of what happened with his mother. That's something I've been trying to think about myself for this story.]

[Or maybe, in other words, by Boomhauer, he used his dang ol' BOOM without protection.]

[Anywho, I was writing this note to see if you guys want me to continue this concept of a story and try to introduce Garth to other characters. I'm thinking of having style as First Person, referring to Garth that tells his life story. It's a retelling of the entire series and can start itself on Episode 3 of Season 1, "The Order of the Straight Arrow", and then continue from there. I hope to get some replies in the comment section soon.]
