#also bumping off of this but darry is a stress baker

[alaskan-wallflower]

When the Curtis parents passed away, Darry had been trying and leaning how to cook his Mom’s recipes so he could make his brothers happy. (I personally think food is one of his love languages) Anyways the first or second time he tried to make a recipe the gang went over for dinner, Dally made a comment about how it wasn’t good, how it was dry, something like that. Pony and Soda froze up because they knew how hard Darry was trying to cook. Darry was pissed but also so hurt.

oh wait no :( pony had soda were so mad and soda actually snapped he was like ‘if you don’t like it then don’t eat it and get the fuck out of my house’ (like even johnny was sending him dirty looks and trust me, when johnny is giving you dirty looks you know you fucked up) and after dally left the rest of the gang continued eating it even if it was really bad just because they didn’t want darry to think he wasn’t doing it right. i feel like their mom taught him the basics but it took a lot for him to be able to cook for three teenage boys (trust me teenage boys can eat a lot) but he’s obviously not perfect at it…neither of them eat a word when it is bad though. they’ll just eat it because they don’t want to see that look of absolute hurt in darry’s eyes like they did that one night.

dally can’t talk about cooking though. he fucked up spaghetti and meatballs to the point literally everybody in the gang got food poisoning except him. pony and soda were understandable because their stomachs are sensitive as fuck but darry and johnny could digest a can if they wanted. especially johnny like i know johnny has eaten literal garbage but somehow dally’s cooking was the limit
