Stephandy

Stephandy is the slash ship between Stephen Stotch and Randy Marsh from the South Park fandom.

Canon
Stephen and Randy are close friends. While not usually sharing a lot of screentime it is clear that Stephen and Randy value their friendship, though there are episodes where their friendship is shown more.

Stephen warns Randy about the division two dads in 9x5 "The Losing Edge", in which he is the kids' baseball coach, after Randy once again got into a fight with another fellow baseball obsessed dad during the game.

The episode 'More Crap', 11x9, shows aStephen complimenting Randy's big crap he took and even suggests him to contact the people behind the Guinness World Record book for its size after Randy shows it to him and his other friends. After Randy however gets beaten for his Guinness World Record Book entry, Stephen, along with the others, meet Randy at the bar again and mourn about how unfair it is he didn't win. However, they motivate him to try again and go for an even bigger crap. Stephen even gives a little motivational speech.

A major episode of Stephen and Randy is 21x6 'Sons a Witches'. The two and lots of other South Park dads meet up for their first night of anual Halloween Witch Week up up on Sentinel Hills during which they are all dressed up as witches. They all get drunk, dance around the fireplace, during which Stephen and Randy are holding hands, so are the others, and goof around. Stephen gets so drunk that he jumps around, sitting on a broom, and falls over to which Randy responds with laughing and pointing at him jokingly. After fellow dad, Chip Duncan, casts a spell and transforms into a real chaos causing witch, the other dads are considered to be at fault for this. Because of this, they visit the South Park elementary school and give the students a musical number, stating how they aren't all as bad as the "bad witch" Duncan. During this whole thing, Stephen and Randy are standing next to each other. Later, Stephen confronts Randy about the still kidnapping Duncan at his home, worriedly asking him to publicly admit their use of crack cocaine and the spell back on Sentinel Hills.

After Stephen, Randy and a bunch of other man of South Park figure that the UPS deoivery man might be making out with all their wives behind their backs, they track him down and beat him up. After he continues his job, however, they search for him once more and Stephen and Randy blow up his UPS van together. All this causes the UPS man to panic a until he jumps out of a window and falls to his death. Stephen and Randy are later interviewed together by the police.

In 18x5, 'The Magic Bush', an episode having a slight focus on Stephen, Stephen visits Randy completely out of mind as he suspects the drones, including his that filmed Laura Tucker undressing without his knowledge, are flying by themselves. Randy too is clueless.

Fanon
The ship isn't very popular and is also often just considered a crackship. The lack of popularity is most likely simply due to it being an adult ship, however, it is currently gaining a lot of popularity on TikTok and Instagram. It's the fourth most popular ship for Randy and the second most popular for Stephen, with rivals of Stephandy being the relationships they canonically have with their wives, but also Rowelie and Ranald (also known as Gerandy). Stephandy has 12 works on Ao3, a lot of those being about them dumping their wives and just dating each other instead.
