every year for ace's birthday two-bit swipes her a deck of cards except they arent regular playing cards. over the course of the year, he swipes a new pack that's different from the last (blue cards, red cards, specialty cards, etc) and he takes the aces out of each of them to make her her own specialty pack

he gives the rest of the cards to ponyboy who likes to paint over them and make ace custom cards (ace's favorite card is when he drew her as the queen of hearts because he drew her with box braids wearing this one dress she loved when they went window shopping like three months prior)

your brain is so incredibly huge i hope you know this. UGH the deck full of just aces????? insane work i adore it so much. he’s constantly on the lookout for different decks and asks everyone else to look too rahhhh!!!! i know the gang gets her the best birthday gifts. i like to think darry mends all the gangs clothes and i know he would stitch aces into her clothing!! soda would get her a gag gift and a real gift. steve would put soooooo much thought into it and get her something she mentioned once like 5 months ago. oh my god wait the gang would go Insane with the birthday punches it’s an all out brawl

pony painting the cards goddddd. most of them are versions of ace but he puts in the rest of the gang too sigh. ace getting to see herself being feminine god!!!!! even if it’s just on a card something about it feels relieving. also ace in box braids…… you are so enlightened

#ace and her relationship with her and others hair is so important to me and such a metaphor #ace taking care of everyone’s hair cause it’s the way she shows her love #she’s like darry she can’t say it but she can take care of them #there’s always a haircut/style day for the gang where they all sit down in the curtis kitchen and take turns #soda only lets ace cut his hair just like he only let his dad cut it #he had awful sensory issues as a kid and hated getting it cut #so his dad had to do it. then ace.#and as i’ve said post canon only ace can wash ponys #i have more thoughts and that’ll be a post i fear #and ace with her own hair sigh #how she used to keep it longer and then cut it to protect herself #the mental image sigh #how you could be anything but obsessed with her is beyond me #the outsiders #the outsiders broadway #the outsiders musical #ace the outsiders #the outsiders ace #ace outsiders #ace ilysm #twobit mathews #two bit mathews #ponyboy curtis
