ACCEPTED Kyle S. Application
Availability: A LOT. Like almost every day, usually at night.
Desired Character: Kyle Schwartz (AKA Cousin Kyle)
Character Age: 16 (17 in June)
Kyle Schwartz is Kyle Broflovski's cousin on his mother's side. He was born in Hartford, Connecticut and sent to South Park in fourth grade to stay with the Broflovskis while his mother was out of commission. He didn't really like it but he didn't say anything until he left, telling the boys they were a bunch of stereotypical hillbillys. Part of the reason he said this was because he realized they wanted the investment money he made while staying there.
He went back to Connecticut with his five million dollars and put most of it away, using the rest to keep investing. He's very well off and was able to pay for the best medical treatment available for his mother. She has been cancer-free for five years now. Unfortunately for him, she and his father have decided to spend the rest of their years in South Park, bringing him along. He still despises his cousin and his friends and has never forgiven them for the Antarctica incident.
Kyle isn't exactly a social butterfly but he won't object to being around people—too much. He'll usually just begin daydreaming or reading if he has a book with him. He can get bored and/or distracted easily though and after a few chapters will move on to something else. He's bright in school but doesn't like doing homework so his grades hover around a C average.
He's still as sickly as he ever was, though his asthma is a bit more under control than it used to be. He wears glasses most of the time but his mother bought him contacts and makes him wear them for picture day and special occasions. “To show off that beautiful face,” she says.
Right now he has no friends, obviously, and he isn't going out of his way to make any. His mother did convince him to sign him up for Tumblr though, as 'all the kids at school are on there.' So his life now consists of looking at things on Tumblr, reading, watching science fiction television and daydreaming about boys and the future.

In Character Sample Paragraph:
Kyle sat in the front of the classroom (his mother annoyingly had arranged this seat for him with the teacher) doodling on his homework sheet as Mr. Garrison's words went in one ear and out the other. He was thinking about what he had to do when he got home, running it all in his head over and over so he wouldn't forget anything later; get off the school bus, check the mail, make a snack, feed the cat, 4:00 is Jeopardy. He was missing something. He knew there were 6 things. And did getting off the bus count? Maybe if he wasn't in class he could concentrate on the important things he had to do.
Suddenly the room fell uncomfortably silent and he snapped out of his thoughts to see what was going on. The rest of the students were staring at him and Mr. Garrison's hands were on his hips. “Well, Mr. Schwartz? Can you tell me what evidence there is that Jack Tripper was actually a gay prostitute and not having a threesome with his roommates?”
Kyle pulled on his sweater neck and coughed. “Uh..because of that one episode? Where he..oh Jesus. You know what I'm talking about.”
“No, Mr. Schwartz, I don't know. And you've failed today, again.”
Kyle sighed and went back to his drawing. Now he'd lost his train of thought. Crappy redneck stupid teacher.
