Summary
[KENNY POV]
Some use he's ever been, because, when he thinks about it, what does it matter? Three, four, five jobs, and the money's flushed out anyway, snuffed out and away, out of grasp with only dregs left for himself, for him to be the one to actually sensibly provide for the family.
Dregs.
And they feel like they're being squeezed and stressed. Kenny feels the strain himself, a crushing exertion that wrings him dry.
(AKA. As sophomore year begins, Kenny is left juggling more than ever. Is it even possible to keep the people around him close alongside his part-time jobs? And how much longer can he neglect a 2-year-old memory he's blocked out while everything else bubbles up to the surface?)

Summary
[STAN AND KYLE POV]
“What's in your pocket, dude?” Stan chuckled against Kyle's lips, making them tingle.
At this point, Kyle had gone too rigid to answer.
...
Too late.Held by Stan was no longer Kyle, but the baggie. Well, barely. Stan was shaking violently as he peered at it. Tried to gauge it. Now, he held it even closer to his face, trying to ease the fuzziness the world had dissipated to so starkly. “...Weed?”
Honestly, Stan was surprised the word was audible, despite how bitter a taste it left on his tongue. Metallic, like it attacked his mouth in a bloody battle.
“Okay, Stan, it's not-...” Kyle began pathetically. “It's not how it looks, okay?”
(AKA: Stakes are higher than ever as Kyle falls victim to Cartman's blackmail, but how far will he go to keep his deepest secret from Stan?)

Summary
[STAN AND KYLE POV]
"Stan...?"
"'S okay, 'm here," Stan reassured in a whisper.
"No, I mean, I... hafta..."
"Hm?"
"It's Cartman's fault..."
For a while, Stan allowed himself to process. Of course, he still didn't understand. "What are you talkin' about? "Cartman's fault"? Whaddaya mean?"
But Kyle let out a sigh as he drifted into sleep.
(AKA: As Stan and Kyle begin to navigate their new relationship status, Stan tries to get to the bottom of what's going on with Kyle.)

Summary
[STAN AND KYLE POV]
Now was Stan's turn to snort. Kyle was ever one for wit. God... what had he been thinking befriending anyone else?
"I don't understand why you got bullied, yanno," blurted Stan. "'Should've been me, not you. You're the confident, clever one. Clearly."
Kyle's forehead scrunched, the creases having embedded themselves there since they were thirteen.
"No, dude. Don't-... don't say shit like that," he scolded gently. Soon he had dumped himself next to Stan, leaning his elbows on his knees, his right hand trailing through his red locks. He bumped Stan's shoulder with a tiny grin. "There's no way I'm cool, what with my track record with girls. I don't expect any chick to have ever found me remotely attractive."
"...How...?" Stan said before he could stop himself. "You look.... fine to me."
(AKA. It's their freshman year in highschool: fighting, reconciliation, pining, the works. Only, with so much on their plates, Stan's wellbeing goes unchecked.)

Summary
[Mike's POV]
“And us? …We're friends?” The irony hits Mike too late, a recollection amongst the fuzz in his brain, static of lost signal.
Briefly, Will tenses too. Finally, he twists the key correctly and his apartment door clicks open and he turns his head to level Mike over his shoulder. “Friends? No, thanks.”
Will opens the door and closes it after himself in Mike's face, the slam echoing through his head at the memory, like the ambiance on the tower.
(Aka. Mike goes to NYC to try and win Will over and/or back).
