And That's The Word

This crossover appears to be a sendup of really terrible writing, with random topic changes, repetition, contradiction ("he hurried, slowly") and tense shifts. It reminds me of xlormp, only not actually funny.

One of the characters is named Stephen, but he's completely unrecognizable. Can anyone who's seen The Wire confirm whether or not the other people here resemble their canon selves?

There is at least one saving grace here: random Ho Yay.

Stephen Colbert Season One of the Wire Fan Fiction
By: Sean Fennimanica
Rating: A (Aramaic)

( Stringer comes over to the bed with Stephen. He knows the rules. No pants on the bed. )

Initially, Colbert Nation featured three parody fics. Two more were added later. This is one of the later additions.

I still have a lingering suspicion that the later fics were produced as some kind of weird sponsorship deal. This one is basically RPF about Bam Margera, with a whole lot of cringe-worthy skateboarding jargon and not a lot of funny.

Worst of all, Stephen only gets a couple of token mentions. The end of this part foreshadows some kind of Epic Skateboarding Showdown between Stephen and Mr. Margera; but, like "The Time Machine," it will never actually be continued.

Given this beginning, would you have wanted to keep reading? Or does the rating say it all?

( While watching Stephen Colbert fly away in a plane that was surely powered by the force of his skateboarding within, I landed a 50-50 grind on a perfectly waxed curb, followed by a disco flip, which I turned into a smith grind. )
