This is an AU where Stanley does have friends. His father started drinking when he was a kid, everytime his father failed an invention he downed another bottle. Stan's friends name is Xavier, Xavier is going to play a big part in the story.
Stanley does have a bad attitude, but that's only sometimes. Living with his father has had a major impact on things he thinks are funny, dark humor is his escape sometimes.
He isn't as shy as he was in the book or movie. Also Mom and Mr. Sir have different physical features than they do in the movie, Pendanski is still short af though. Hopefully you guys enjoy this story and don't mind the changes I made to each individual.
