Princess Kenny and Mysterion; Expression from the Expressless

Kenny McCormick is known for being a more silent character. His hood obstructs his words and his deaths go largely ignored by others. What we get in show is a boy who’s ready to participate in goofs and has the most knowledge towards lewd jokes. And he uses that knowledge often! In jokes and in regular conversation. On top of this he is often made fun of and poked at for being poor, and when he’s not being made fun of in that way he’s mostly being ignored. And in a directly meta sense, he’s discarded and under developed! But when you look at things like Stick of Truth and The Fractured But Whole and Kenny’s personas we get suddenly a lot of content from him and the characters he plays. Princess Kenny and Mysterion being a view into his morals and what he wants as a person. And these two personas compare and contrast each other so nicely !

Princess Kenny is the fairest maiden of all the land! At the start of SOT we get Cartman telling us “he just wants to be a chick, we just roll with it.”. And throughout the game we see she’s desired by many, using her charm to get around obstacles and often surprise attack. Princess Kenny being one of the only royalty we see in SOT says a lot. She ostensibly has the highest status in the land, especially among her faction. Everyone wants to appease her, they want to charm her. They want her and they want to be her. She’s praised for being rich, being born into status, and for existing. She is a princess.

This all speaks very basically to something that Kenny desires deeply but doesn’t have. Kenny is from the poorest family in the town, he’s made fun of for being poor and often discarded and ostracized for this. He yearns to be wanted without providing something special, to not have less meaning because of how he was born. He’s so connected to how he grew up and this experience he has and he doesn’t want to fully part from it. He still keeps the rats that help him fight in battle. On top of that she’s a way to directly express gender, to express herself openly. As a direct opposite to Kenny normally, she wears a more revealing dress with a wig, she dances around, she puts her all into it. It’s allowing Kenny to be everything he isn’t yet still wants to be so badly.

Meanwhile Mysterion isn’t the hero South Park deserves but he is the hero South Park needs. Natural leader with nerves of steel he could do about anything. He’s one of the most powerful characters in game and full of small quips that make him feel dorkishly sharp. He’s got a lot of guts and courage. Definite morals for what’s right even if that goes against the law. Savior and martyr complex out the wazoo here. And for once, he actually gets some recognition.

Kenny on the other hand dies endlessly without his death being cared about a minute later. He tries to fight for what he thinks is right and is ready to sacrifice himself in a second. And when given the power he uses it to help. It’s his ultimate want that’s elevated to the point where he’s able to do it consistently and mostly successfully.

Princess Kenny allows Kenny to explore everything he doesn’t have right now but in a freer space. Mysterion allows Kenny to present his core values and wants and how he sees himself in a freer space. In a place he’s not going to be insulted constantly for things outside of his control. They’re integral to Kenny’s inner conflicts towards his class, his immortal complexes, and developing wants and preferences.

South Park Elementary lost scene where Kyle walks into the boys restroom, Jimmy, Kenny, and Cartman walk out… He steps in…..the floor is fucking flooded, and there’s a TRAFFIC CONE shoved so far into a TOILET it’s just gushing everywhere. Kyle just…uses a different stall and leaves

I headcanon that Red is a HUGE SF nerd but she doesn’t want people to know because she’s one of the popular girls and it’s “uncool” to like this kind of stuff

Kevin found out about it by accident and she was a little… intense about it.
