#ask darrell

[bluecoolr]

making darrell watch Children of the Corn and see if his corn paranoia makes the movie better or worse for him

He has double the paranoia now

[bluecoolr-main]

This was giving darrell. Idk why but it did

Slaashy you're so correct for this 🤣🤣

Dude's low income but never low in cum

He's the type of guy to complain about the price of canned meatloaf and m&m's, then begrudgingly drop the food into the shopping cart anyway.

[super-man-curtis]

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Or is it Darry having to put up with his baby brother's endless imagination?

[dailyhmsw]

you draw darrel so wagoogusly. so weebdeebsneebously. so ediblely. so rotund and squishable..

thank you.. i lovr these adjectives. heres my reference image for him i think of all the time

thats hi,m. Darrell chonny jash.

also to answer the person who asked if he was a specific breed: he's a barbu d'uccle !!!!

[eviesqueezie]

“please, dar!” ponyboy pleads, hair messy from sleep with drool half dried on his chin.

darry sighs, shooting a glance at the snoring sodapop laid down on the sofa.

“pone..” his voice trails off as ponyboy groans, hands previously clasped together now dropping to his sides.

“when was the last time i asked for anything?” pony tilts his head, smirk twitching at the corners of his lips.

darry snorts, leaning forward with his elbows on his knees.

“let me see..” he pauses in mock thought, grinning. “last night, when you asked for lasagna for dinner. this morning, when you asked me to make you eggs.-“

ponyboy mutters something under his breath and stalks off back to his room, with darry’s voice lingering behind him as he continues to talk.

“do i need to go on? hey how about this afternoon when!-“

he can hear pony sigh, loudly, from the other room and leans back against the armchair with a sly smile. it’s fond, too. don’t forget fond.

Okay so I found this picture of Pinterest and highkey. It has me CRYING. And let me tell you why!!!

Both Soda and Darry are compared to their dad in the book, and while I can't really recall at the moment if any of them were compared to their mother, I'm gonna go at the personal headcanon that Ponyboy was compared to her quite a lol in a similar way to Soda and Darry being compared to their dad. But see here- their mom is blonde. Soda in the book is blond, but I feel like it's an entirely different ballgame when Ponyboy bleaches his hair. When Darry and Soda reunite with him and after the pure joy and relief that he was alive...I just imagine a sense of unease. Seeing him with the blond hair- the comparisons to their mother hadn't completely clicked until then. It makes them feel...a lot of things. But above all, there is a harsh mixture of grief and love. For both their mother and Ponyboy.

I don’t remember who said this originally so credit to whoever it was

I cannot stop thinking about darry who, since he knows bad things can happen, always sets aside money in a box in his closet every time he gets paid. That way if anything goes wrong he can help his brothers (and himself, but that’s never what he’s thinking about)

Ponyboy who lives in constant fear of the threat darry made the night he hit him

“maybe I should finally just walk on out”

and pony who finds Darry’s money and freaks out because *hes really going to leave* and he doesnt want that

[goldenduckie]

WOAH THATS A COOL CHICKEN

[crow2222]

[not-actually-human]

may i pretty please request soda and dallas with their heads out the window while darry drives and utterly ignores them🙏🥹 (also I ADORE your style AMAZING work!!!)

darry may seem unaffected but he is internally so distracted that he is driving like shit and pony is freaking the fuck out

[socialc1imb]

Does creachur Hart ever get a stuffed animal? Or like… try and steal entire pillows for himself?

(I love the sillies sm!!!!)

Ive actually drawn this before! Have i not posted it for tumblr? Whoops.

(Also, they never get pillows for themselves. They all cuddle together no matter what.)

[bluecoolr]

Hiya Blue!!! Okay so Baulders Gate 3 has been my time sink of choice as of late, I wanna ask, If Darrell and/or Bright Eyes got teleported/isiakied to Faerûn, what classes would he/they be? Would he/they remain humans? Who would they want to make friends with or romance?

Cait!!! You have fed me well with lots of Baldur's Gate 3 content and I am never more grateful 💖

And lemme say this ask is fantastic. 👀 Darrell is like one main oc that i like to put in different situations like a little doll or actor 🤣

But to answer the question: 😗

If Darrell and Bright Eyes (cuz I like the idea of them being separate people) were ever teleported to the world of bg3, they'd both be Seldarine Drow rangers.

They work better in the dark, have hedonistic tendencies, and can have animal companions (as rangers) 😊

Anyway the vibes are just ✨️

[angelslovecherries]

ponyboy: CAN YOU GUYS PLEASE JUST STOP TRYING TO SET ME UP WITH GIRLS?!

Soda-pop: you said you wanted to go out with someone? no?

ponyboy: yeah BUT NOT A GIRL!

two-bit: then wh-

Ponyboy: IM QUEER!

the gang: . . .

Johnny: [mumbling under his breath] oh thank God I thought I was the only one

Ponyboy:what?

Johnny:what?

[dailyhmsw]

what are The Gang's thoughts on darrell? the Chicken.

mind and the chicken he Didn't Want...... why... does darrell almost remind him of heart? Feathers and Wings and all? how does he feel that They have a chicken of all things?

when did darrell even come into play? wwas the Chicken Always there? has Resident Heart ever seen darrell? what does heart think of a fellow Bird Thing.....

was darrell just found One Day and soul just Picked him up and decided he wanted that damn chicken? Is there a Story to Darrell?

how often do they Dress Darrell Up in stupid outfits this ones important

i have So Much to ask about your thoughts on these Creatures but don't want to bombard you :)

YAYAYAYAYAYYA DARRELL ASK I GETTO SHARE HEADCABNONS I WOULDNT SHARE OTHERWISE OKOKOK

SO outside of universe i know darrell's origins.. i actually read a fic once back when i was still new to the fandom about the Losers finding and getting used to darrell, wherein soul just. conjures him. which is really funny to think about and i adore that fic so much if i can remember the title i'll edit this post to add it

but something within me just REALLY wants an explanation that aligns with the rest of the story. there needs to be MEANING BEHIND THE CHICKEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and so i present you with this:

he is technically of soul's creation, coming from a want for comfort and unity. but soul didn't create him on purpose, he just came out of his room one day in the middle of the night to find a feathered ball waddling around the living room. darrell is very soft to the touch and unbothered by most things, and he's more than happy to be cuddled and touched for long periods of time. soul doesn't remember when he first saw darrell but it's been so long it's like he's always been here.

as i've shared before, my design for him is based on a barbu d'uccle.. he's a fat little brown chicken with little mottled spots and feathers covering his little feet...,, he's also a hen. he has laid. eggs. but hms don't really seem to care about that too much

the thing is that everyone loves darrell..,, he often gets referred to as "soul's chicken" but heart and mind love him just as much. he's almost a part of them in his own right; a little beacon of hope, as stupid as that might sound. his presence is designed to be comforting and warm, like he's meant to evoke a feeling of wholeness.....,, soul especially sees him and his brown, almost orange-y feathers and feels an odd connection.

BUTANNNYWAYS to answer the other questions!!!:

mind relates all things animal to heart so he was a little apprehensive of the chicken at first, and the reasoning soul gave for his existence (being a comfort animal of sorts) didn't make much sense to him.,, he came around because having a pet to take care of and nurture felt very good for him, and in exchange he gets to hang out with a creature that Isn't Bothersome [even though it's a chicken, a farm animal - why couldn't it have been a dog or something?]

heart LOVES darrell and he has since the start. he's a very tactile person so, if the chicken is near, he is PETTING thoise FEATHERS. and he does find a little comfort in the beloved pet sharing so many physical similarities with him. unfortunately heart has never seen him, but soul has described darrell to him many many times. he pictures him as a big fluffy brown chicken with dumb little curious eyes and huge wings like his own and he loves darrell so much.

amd OBVIOUSLY they dress him up in dumb outfits OOBBBVIOUSLY it is a pet owner's DUTY to do so at least once!!!! often for holidays and stuff they give him little hats yknow . it is Vital for their Harmonization.

tldr god they LOVE HIMMMM he's sweet he's comforting and he provides them with the motivation to take care of both him and themselves C: and his existence comes from a desire for harmony.. he's the only thing that they will always love together

[made-my-peace-with-all-the-bad]

Darrel Curtis who carries the weight of the world on his shoulders and works all the time and barely ever gets a moment to himself. He hardly gets any moments of peace for just himself, so he likes to cherish those moments. But he also loves his brothers more than anything and if he needs to sacrifice a couple of his moments to himself to be there for them he will. Like if one of them is sick, he’s up with them comforting them and making sure they’re ok. Or if one of them has a nightmare that can only be soothed by him, he’s there in a heartbeat. Or if one of them comes home after being jumped, he’s dropping everything to patch them up himself and make sure they’re ok. Darrel Curtis loves his moments of peace, but he loves his brothers a whole hell of a lot more.

[glennquackmire]

Pony’s the biggest hater to Darry and the most needy to Darry at the same time.

“SHUT UPPPO LITERALLY NOBOYD CARES BRO 🤬🤬🤬🤬”

“Haha Darry…I need your help 🥺🥺”

“What. What do you want my help with right now pony, according to you o don’t love you enough to ever help.”

“Can you show me how to make a grilled cheese 🥺🥺☹️☹️🤗🤗🤗”

“No, ask someone else”

“YOU DONT LOVE ME😨😨😰😰💔💔💔🤬🤬☹️☹️☹️⛓️⛓️⛓️🖤🖤🖤🥀🥀🥀💔💔💔”

Then he started crying. Darry’s so sick of this hoarse

I always imagine that they go from having the most VIOLENT, FOUL, EVIL arguments to being best friends five minutes later

Yay
