[fanfic] Kyle Broslofski, Gamer
Alyssa
Okay, here it is! The South Park/Creatures crossover!
To everyone on alt.tv.southpark: If you thought my last one was crazy...
To everyone on alt.games.creatures: You should be able to identify with
this ;)
And now, without further ado, "Kyle Broslofski, Gamer"!
...
[Scene: Inside Kyle's room. Kyle is booting up a computer. He puts a CD in
the drive, and Mrs. Broslofski peeks in the door.]
Mrs. Broslofski: Kyle, bubbe, your friends are at the door!
[Kyle gets up, goes to the door.]
Kyle: Hey, guys!
Stan: Hey, Kyle.
Cartman: Why'd you call us over here, Kyle?
Kyle: I wanted to show you this sweet new game I got! <he leads the other
three to his room>
Stan: What's it called?
Kyle: Creatures.
Stan: What's it about?
Kyle: These furry little animals called Norns, they're really cute! You
have to raise them and breed them.
Kenny: Mmmhpmrmpmh? Mmphmrphmmrmpmh! (Breed them? This is my kind of game!)
Kyle:<ignoring Kenny and starting up the game> Look, here's one I hatched.
I didn't name him yet, but I already taught him language and stuff!
Stan: Wow! Cool!
[They watch as the little Norn onscreen says 'push food', then wanders into
the garden. First thing he does, he picks up a carrot and eats it, then
picks up a honeypot.]
Kyle: Ah, dammit! I forgot to take the honey away from him! <tries in vain
to get the honeypot away from the Norn, who is slurping away at it happily>
Stan: Dude, what's wrong with letting them eat honey?
Kyle: It's basically junk food. I'm trying to get him to eat healthy stuff!
Stan: What's it mean when the jar's on its side like that?
Kyle: It means it's empty. Now maybe he'll leave it alone.
[The Norn on the screen repeats 'push food' and picks up a piece of cheese,
eating it.]
Stan: Damn, this Norn eats like Cartman!
Cartman: AY!
Kyle: Yeah! I think I'll name him Cartman, hee hee.
Cartman: Ay, you ain't naming no ugly little furball after me! No!
Kyle: Too late, Cartman. Already named him.
Cartman: Weak!
Kyle: You can also import Norns into this game, to widen your gene pool,
and save Norns to files.
Stan: Cool! You got any Norns you can import?
Kyle: Yeah, I downloaded a few off the Internet. Let me import them.
[Kyle imports an adult white-haired Norn male and an adult blond Norn
female into the world.]
Kyle: This blond one I named Wendy, and this white-haired one over here I
named Stan. I imported them earlier, but exported them so I could hatch
that Norn right there. <points to Cartman-Norn>
Stan: Sweet, you named a Norn after me?
Kyle: Yep.
[The boys hear a loud "kissssssss....POP" from the speakers.]
Stan: Dude, what was _that_?
Kyle: That was Stan-Norn and Wendy-Norn making sweet love!
Kenny: Mmphmrm, mmhpmprhmphmmm? Mmopphm mhrpmhmmphmmrm,
mmrphmprmphmrmmmphm? (What, just a kiss-pop? Nothing visual, nothing
passionate?)
Kyle: This is, like, a G-rated game, Kenny. Cyberlife couldn't put any
_real_ sex in it.
Kenny: Mmphmrmphm. (That sucks.)
Stan: Dude, what's Cyberlife?
Kyle: They're the people that made this game. They're already working on
the sequel to it, which is supposed to be way better!
Kenny: Mmmhprmpprpmh? (With real sex?)
Kyle: I don't think so.
Kenny: Mmphmr! (Damn!)
Stan: Hey, what's that weird thing there that the Norn's playing with?
Kyle: That's a flib-er-tee-jib-et. It's a toy.
Stan: Oh.
[Kyle continues playing with the game and explaining various things. Then
the word 'EGG' appears on the status bar.]
Stan: Egg?
Kyle: SWEET! Wendy musta gotten pregnant!
Stan:<looking confused> Huh?
Kyle: Norns lay eggs, Stan. That's how they give birth. When Stan-Norn and
Wendy-Norn kisspopped, Wendy-Norn must've gotten pregnant! <he
double-clicks on the 'EGG' notice>
Stan: Dude, that's a tiny egg!
Kyle: Yeah, it was just laid. The eggs get bigger, believe me. We gotta
wait for it to grow.
[They wait, and the egg grows to where you can see a silhouette moving
inside it. Kyle picks up the egg and takes it to the incubator. The egg
hatches after a little while in the incubator, and a cute kid with a mohawk
and striped arms comes out.]
Stan: Cool!
Cartman: That thing's ugly!
Stan: No it's not, Cartman, it's cute!
Cartman: It's an ugly little hairball!
Kenny: Mmphm, mmphmrmh...mpmhptmmmnppmnhmmpphmpm, heh heh. (Nah, it's
cute...but it'd be cuter if it was female, heh heh.)
Kyle: Kenny, sometimes I worry about you.
Kenny:<shrugs> Mmphmrmrphm, M'm m mmpphmpmpprmhmmmmrmpm. (What can I say,
I'm a dirty little bastard.)
Stan:<looking at his watch> Whoa dude, I gotta get home! It's dinnertime!
Cartman: Yeah, I better leave too.
Kenny: Mmphrmrmmmrphm... (I probably should go too...)
Kyle: Okay, bye you guys.
[Stan, Cartman, and Kenny leave, and Kyle gets re-absorbed in the game.]
[Scene switches to at the bus stop. A dark-haired girl jumps out from
behind a tree and grins insanely at Kenny.]
Liza: Remember me, Kenny?
Kenny: Mm. (No.)
Liza: You will...soon! HA HA HA HA HAH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! <runs off>
Stan: Uh, okay.
[Scene switches to the scamps (minus Kyle) at Kyle's door. Stan knocks, and
Kyle answers with a pathetic look on his face.]
Stan: Hey du--
Kyle:<plaintively> Cartman-Norn died.
Cartman: WHAT?
Kyle: Yeah, he ate the Deathcap Mushroom.
Cartman: Sonofabitch! You shoulda named him Kenny, it's not _my_ job to
die!
[Kenny whacks Cartman.]
Cartman: OWW!
Kyle:<a little more cheerful> But the good news is, Wendy-Norn's second egg
is about to hatch!
Stan: Cool!
[Kyle goes into his room, the others follow, staring at the screen and
waiting for the egg to hatch. There is a small cracking sound, and then a
piteous whimper is heard.]
Stan: Hey, what happened?
Kyle: Oh my God, noooo! It's a _stillborn!_
[Kyle starts sniffling and wiping his eyes...not quite crying, but close to
it. Stan, Kenny, and Cartman exchange bewildered looks.]
Stan: Uh, Kyle? Are you, um, okay?
Kyle: The ****in' Norn was _dead at birth_, and you can ask if I'm okay?
Stan: Is that a no?
Kyle: Yep. <continues sniffling>
Kenny: Mmmph, Mplm, mphmprmppmmmhprm. (Damn, Kyle, it's just a Norn.)
Kyle: DON'T SAY IT'S 'JUST' A NORN!
[Kenny backs up a couple paces, surprised. He, Stan, and Cartman quietly
excuse themselves from the room.]
Stan: I don't think Kyle is gonna be safe to be around for a while.
[Scene: Stan, Cartman, and Kenny are standing at the bus stop a few days
later.]
Cartman: Where the hell is Kyle?
Stan: I dunno, maybe he's occupied with his Norns.
Kenny: Mmpmrpmhmrmmmmphm. (Maybe he's trying to **** one.)
Stan: _Sick_, dude!
[Kenny shrugs]
Cartman: Maybe we should go check on him...see if we need to commit him
again.
[They laugh, and head to Kyle's house. Stan knocks, and Mrs. Broslofski
answers.]
Mrs. Broslofski: Hello there, boys.
Stan: Hi. We were wondering where Kyle is.
Mrs. Broslofski: He's playing with his game.
Stan, Cartman, & Kenny: Uh-oh.
Mrs. Broslofski: You can come on in and talk to him, if you'd like.
Stan: Uh, okay.
[They head for Kyle's room. Kyle is obviously immersed in the game. There
are taped-up pictures of many different Norns all over Kyle's desk. A Norn
doll sits one one side of the desk, and a box for the Life Kit #1 is also
on the desk.]
Stan: Hi Ky--
[Kyle jumps down from his chair and starts talking really really fast]
Kyle: I started a Wolfling run last night and there were two baby Norns
born but three other Norns were dead by this morning <pause for breath> and
I named one baby Kenny and he's a real little traveler I was watching him
today he ate the Deathcap _three times_ but survived <pause for breath> I
think he's gotta be my favorite Norn so far oh and by the way he and this
other Norn beat the crap out of the Grendel it was soooooo sweet--
Stan: DUDE, calm DOWN!
[Kyle stops talking, and breathes deeply.]
Stan: Dude, you are seriously addicted to this game.
Kyle: Yeh, I know. But it's so cool!
Stan: Well, take a break from it...soon...please?
Kyle:<shrugs> Okay.
Stan: Thank you!
Kyle: Hey, you guys want something to eat?
[The other boys shake their heads...yes, even Cartman. Kyle shrugs.]
Kyle: Well, I'm gonna go get something to eat. Get yes food!
[Kyle puts his hands to his chin and tiptoes to the kitchen. Stan, Cartman,
and Kenny stare after him strangely.]
Stan: This is really ****ed up right here.
[Kyle comes back with some carrots dipped in honey, and a glass of
lemonade.]
Stan: Kyle?
Kyle: Yeah?
Stan: Seek help.
[Kyle blinks.]
Kyle: Huh?
Stan: You're dangerously addicted, dude. You need help.
Kyle: Uh, sure, whatever.
[He returns to the computer. Stan motions for Kenny and Cartman to follow
him, and leaves the house.]
Stan: We need to do something, dude. This is not good.
Cartman: Maybe he'll get over it after a while.
Stan: Let's hope.
[They wander off. Liza jumps from behind a tree.]
Liza: I'm baaaaaack!
[Liza shoots Kenny up a few rounds.]
Stan: Oh my God, she killed Kenny!
Cartman: You wussy girl bastard!
[Rats come up and drag Kenny's corpse away.]
[Scene switches to cartman and Stan at Kyle's door. Stan knocks (again),
and Ike answers.]
Stan: Uh, hi Ike. Where's Kyle?
Ike: Kyle in he bedwoom.
Stan: Uh, okay. C'mon Cartman, let's check on him.
[They go into Kyle's room. The Norn pictures are gone, the Creatures and
Life Kit boxes are stacked on a shelf somewhere, and the Norn doll is
nowhere in sight.]
Stan: Hi, Kyle.
[Kyle doesn't hear.]
Stan:<louder> Hi, Kyle.
[Kyle still doesn't hear.]
Cartman: He said, 'HI, KYLE!'
[Kyle jumps and turns to look at Stan and Cartman.]
Kyle: Oh, hey dudes.
Stan: What happened to Creatures?
Kyle: Oh, that. I found an even cooler game! <hands Stan a software box>
[Stan reads the box. It says "MYST" on the front.]
Stan: Uh-oh....

Yep, it sucked. No one to talk to, no sense of humour, no sense of suspense or
drama, nothing but bizarre, static screens with the occasional incomprehensible
puzzle.

That was a beauty of it. Beautiful graphics and a lot of neat
puzzles. It's definately in a league of its own, but it was far from
weak.

But I never got enough of the other games to really like them.
There's a ton of text games at ftp://ftp.gmd.de/if-archive/ and I have

Zork was one of the ORIGINAL text adventure games!
What's better, is that since they're so old, Activision (the company
that owns the rights) is giving them out for free... I'd have to hunt
down the URL (it's on their website somewhere) and you'd need a Zmachine
program (like WinFrotz) but you too could enjoy such wonderful things!

If you don't want to play in a DOS window, go to
