The minute I lock in on school and get a personality beyond the outsiders it’s over for yall.

Dear Theodosia but it’s Darrel and Paul. Darrel is Burr. It’s from 6 year old Darry’s perspective from when Pony was born. Paul is Hamilton. It’s from when he was 7 years old and wandering in the park and he found 4 year old Bob alone and decided he would take him under his wing. It’s Paul and Darrel about their little brothers, who they’d do anything for.

the part about the movie/book and musical fandom being separated may be the realest thing i’ve seen all day

this is lowkey just my little rant on the outsiders fandom because it’s gotten a lot more toxic post tony awards and i wanna kind of address it

i feel like a lot of “bigger” blogs are held at too high of a pedestal. this fandom doesn’t feel like a group of people just enjoying something together. sometimes it feels more like a caste system in a way, where the bigger blogs/people who frequent the musical more at least are held in higher regards than those who have not. sometimes it feels like the smaller blogs aren’t heard as much, y’know? and i kinda find that funny for the outsiders fandom, where the book is literally about equality and how nobody is actually an outsider. but sometimes with these caste system esque viewings it feels almost like whatever they say has to be right. and i don’t think that’s fair.

another thing is the way the musical and the movie/book feel like they’re two separate fandoms. and i get it they’re different. but at the end of the day it’s the same story. and it feels like most of the toxicity from what ive seen comes from the musical fandom. and i get it, but i feel like what the cast says about their characters (to an extent) shouldn’t really be seen as canon. they didn’t make up the characters save for a few. hinton made them up. and therefore what the cast members say about their major characters is purely headcanon. i think people forget that sometimes.

another thing is i’ve had people confide in me and admit that they’re nervous to share some of their content because what if people don’t like it—like in all honesty i think the reason this fandom is so secretive is because of the way more well known/bigger blogs are put on a pedestal. i’ll admit, i too fall into this trap of being scared to say something because i don’t wanna get all these nasty messages. but the thing is, you don’t have to vaguepost about a blog or content you don’t like. you don’t have to send mean anons to people who don’t ship what you do. you don’t have to say people “don’t get it” because they don’t headcanon the way you do. and you know why? it’s because of the good ol block button! heaven knows i’ve used it with many bigger blogs on here and i assure you, blocking out people and content you don’t like or agree with is very helpful. it makes the fandom feel better.

anyway that’s my rant. agree or don’t. jsut had to get it off my chest. everyone has a safe space on my blog. i’m trying to create a space where people don’t have to be afraid to share their thoughts and opinions. just because there are bigger and more well known blogs on here doesn’t mean that there are special privileges that come with it. that’s a bigger problem in the fandom. just because you frequent the show and have a decent following doesn’t mean you deserve anything more than the rest of the poeple in the fandom.

that’s all. agree or don’t idc lol

thinking about how when I saw josh!pony, he was standing right in front of me during great expectations and bro's face was streaked with tears. I almost started sobbing right then and there. pony wanted something more out of his life so bad and he felt so trapped
