I like Ken. The Barbie movie got me to write again. This is a side-blog. Aroace | 35 | she/her but in a Weird Barbie way. In a Crowley way. In a little frog in a bog way | I do not give permission to repost my works anywhere (reblogs are welcome)
Yee-howdy, I'm Gender Kenvy. Based on the name, you can safely assume my specialty is the Barbie movie and my main squeeze (blorbo? is that what the youths call it these days?) is Ryan Gosling's Ken.
I'm ace and probably aro, too, so I tend to explore that a lot in my writing. My pronouns are *exaggerated shrugging*
I am 35 and rediscovering my love of storytelling after a long drought in writing. (Sorry! I am an internet elder and very, very not hip with the times. But Margot Robbie and I are the same age and that's kinda cool.)
I mostly publish over on Ao3 but have cross-posted a couple of things here.
Quick links:
Just a Girls' Doll in a Man's World
[the one that got me writing again <3 ]
Ao3 Link
Summary: Ken is called to the Real World through a portal to his very own human, except that the problem they're facing is one he caused, himself. Now he's taking classes, trying to learn how to be better and mend the rift. It just so happens he's taking some of the same courses that Barbie is. They figure out how a doll and a human with a half-century relationship behind them can help each other grow as people.
Summary: Barbara Handler finds an abandoned doll on a park bench - except he's not a doll anymore. Ken is homeless, but doesn't seem to mind. As time passes, it's clear that he's hiding something: he keeps going missing, only to pop up again acting strangely, can't hold down a job, and won't stick around in the same place for very long. Barbie is determined to figure him out so he can finally have the life always denied to him as a doll. But he has to let her help him.

Tumblr Post
Summary: Ken comes to the real world, but somehow ends up in the 60's and immediately gets drafted to 'Nam. Barbie & co. reel him back to the present, but he's withdrawn, shell-shocked, and practically mute. They piece together the past he isn't telling them, the life he'd built for himself and lost. Based on a dream. Rough draft/outline. Heavy themes.

Duckling
Ao3 Link
Summary: The Ken x El Esposo de Gloria fic you didn't know you needed. Processing a divorce because his best friend is happier with Barbie, Owen is left treading water, lost. He's happy for them, truly. No hate. But who even is he, anymore? Thankfully, ducklings float - and one is heading right for him.

Big fan of college party animal Ryland “it’s been a long time since I took a pill from a stranger without knowing what it was” Grace who is a notorious menace.
Big fan of high academia Dr Ryland “will call you a staggering waste of carbon” Grace who is a short tempered, egotistical, and kind of a jerk.
Big fan of how Ryland Grace can be both these things but while still having his same fundamental personality as a good person and wet cat.
Big fan of how it’s generally agreed that teaching burned the evil out of him and let his whimsy shine.
Big fan of how it took arguably the most difficult and deranged demographic of the human population (thirteen year olds) to turn that man into the best version of himself.

When u try so hard to avoid changing history with the truth of time travel that you invent a crazy ass alien conspiracy and just let those people loose with that experience to impact history whatever way that does
god, fuck I love how even though sg-1 is a lala we love the military murca proud show, it never shies away from the nuance of it all. Colonialism and faith and the draft and gun violence and sexism and homelessness just so much the 90s were so fucking earnest and sincere

I imagine rocky puts grace's amnesia problems down as a "probably normal for humans, they forget stuff all the time" thing for a while and it doesn't set in until maybe a year into the erid trip that, no, losing straight up All of your memories for several months is just about as concerning and unusual for a human as it would be for an eridian. and his immediate reaction is twofold: 1. "you. you were that brain-unhealthy for the entire time we were working together and you just. barely ever mentioned it? Why. Question." 2. [sudden recollection of every time he got short of temper and said something bitchy like "lazy human not know how own ship function" or "how grace forget location of basic controls question"] [curls up on the floor in embarrassment] "should have said something so I not spend two months making fun of brain injuryyy"
#I KNOWWWWW i remember reading the line where he insulted him for not knowing how his ship worked and being like DUDE give him a break???#it's out of pocket regardless i mean he's the science specialist not an engineer or a pilot#but just. rocky#rocky....#rocky
