One of the hardest things for Darry being Ponyboy's guardian is when he gets in trouble at school.
Like one time the school called him in because Ponyboy got into a fight at lunch with a soc because the dude said something along the lines of "you greasers are on thin ice" and Ponyboy said "at least I can stand on ice, you fat fuck" and they started swinging.
Poor Darry had to sit in front of the principal and act like that wasn't the funniest fucking thing he's ever heard.
#the outsiders#ponyboy curtis#darry curtis#darrel curtis#sodapop curtis#the brother side of him wants to pat him on the back#the guardian side HAS to tell him that wasn't appropriate#he had to lock in while the principal told him the story#he laughed about it later in private#even though earlier he was like to pony “um im not laughing 😐”

Soda is that teenager who follows his mom around the house yapping and perches on the end of her bed at unholy hours of the night, still yapping.
Except it’s Darry. Darry is mom. It’s 3 AM, Darry has the covers pulled over his head, and Soda is still standing in the corner yapping about his day.
#chronic yapper sodapop curtis#see he’s a great listener when it comes to ponyboy#but darry gets the opposite side of things#darry can’t get him to shut up#2 o clock in the morning and soda is perched on the edge of the counter like a nocturnal frog#darry is trying to go to the bathroom and sodas outside the door like “and another thing ☝️”#those early morning drives to work where darry is half asleep nursing his coffee and soda is blabbing in the passengers seat#soda is the kind of person to have stupid dreams and spend four hours trying to explain them#darry’s passed out on the couch#soda is balanced on the armrest#still yapping#except one time soda got insecure and was like “sorry I know you probly don’t care”#and darry launched himself into active listener mode so fast#sodapop curtis#darry curtis#the outsiders#the curtis brothers

steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he says "soda. shoes."
steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he says "what were you doing, walking by your lonesome?"
steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he says "beer for breakfast? really?"
steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he says "where's Superman?"
steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he puts his all into the rumble for johnny
steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he runs out of the house with three broken ribs
steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he stumbles forwards, about to fall if soda weren't to hold him back
steve randle doesn't say "i love you", but goddamn if he doesn't mean it
#steve admired darry as a kid and still does#he just hides it better#fight me#steve my beloved#tagging all my steve posts like that until it makes my posts a lot about#steve randle my beloved#forgot that one#steve randle#sodapop curtis#darry curtis#darrel curtis#ponyboy curtis#twobit mathews#johnny cade#dally winston#dallas winston#the outsiders#the outsiders book#chippedshake

I KNOW PONY SAID "OUR FATHER WAS AN ORIGINAL GUY" BUT REALLY?? SODA AND PONYBOY. NO ONE NAMES THEIR KIDS LIKE THAT (NO ONE SHOULD)
YOU KNOW WHAT THOSE NAMES SOUND LIKE? THE KIND OF NAMES A 3 YEAR OLD WOULD CHOSE.
NOW IMAGINE, 3 YEAR OLD DARREL, HOLDING HIS FATHER'S HAND AS THEY WALK INSIDE OF THE HOSPITAL ROOM. HIS FATHER HOLDS HIM UP SO HE CAN SEE HIS MOTHER IN THE BED. HE HAD BEEN EXPECTING THE BABY FOR SO LONG NOW. AND HE SEES HIM, HIS LITTLE BROTHER, ALL RED AND SMALL IN HIS MOTHER'S ARMS. HIS FATHER ASKS HIM: "THIS IS YOUR LITTLE BROTHER, WHAT DO YOU WANT TO NAME HIM?"
AND HE SAYS SODA. AND WHEN IT'S PONY'S BIRTH, IT'S SODA'S TURN TO CHOSE AND THAT KID IS SO HORSE OBSESSED HE COMES UP WITH PONYBOY.

pony was definitely the little shit who would start crying whenever soda or darry hit him too hard, and then darry/soda would have to be all “NO NO WAIT YOU CAN HIT ME BACK” to him.
#the outsiders#ponyboy curtis#sodapop curtis#darry curtis#half the time they didn’t even hit him he just liked tattling

i’m just thinking about pony terrified that him being gay is just one more hardship on his brothers’s backs, the thing that’ll finally break their love for him . and darry and soda have suspected that pony’s queer for a while and seeing him isolate himself and pull away like this is awful and terrifying and they do they’re best to remind pony that they’ll always love him, but if anything it just makes pony feel worse because how can they promise that when they don’t know this secret he’s carrying??
#like. gay pony is sooo so real to me and he’s so terrified of people knowing#and soda and darry know and they can’t do anything but watch their little brother hate himself#likeee#do i see the vision do u see it#i need to write more about this UGHHH#thinking abt my pony coming out to soda fic …. :(#ponyboy curtis#sodapop curtis#darry curtis#curtis brothers#the curtis brothers#the outsiders#the outsiders musical

I think one of the biggest differences between Darry and Pony is that Darry did well in school because he worked hard, studied and paid attention in class and Ponyboy does well in school without ever really having to try.
#like i’m not saying Ponyboys never done poorly ever#but he’s like that one kid we all know who never pays attention in class#does the homework the period before and kinda screws up the classwork#but always gets one of the highest grades on the tests because something in their brains was just able to click at some point#as opposed to darry who would always score high because he paid attention and studied hard#the outsiders#ponyboy curtis#the outsiders book#the outsiders movie#the outsiders 1983#the outsiders ponyboy#ponyboy#ponyboy michael curtis#the outsiders musical#stay gold ponyboy#the outsiders darry#darry curtis#darrel curtis

Darry when someone wakes him up by gently tapping him on the shoulder
#the outsiders#darry curtis#darrel curtis#ponyboy curtis#sodapop curtis#two bit mathews#steve randle#dallas winston#johnny cade#even though I hate the parentification of darry#he totally does this#its because every time he's woken up it means that disaster has struck#bro is just always on edge#but fr the gang will wake him up as softly as they possibly could and he still acts like he was just shot

We give Ponyboy a lot of crap for how he waxes poetic about Soda’s handsomeness while simultaneously throwing Darry under the bus at every opportunity. But. Have you considered how often Pony reminds us of Darry’s muscles. Have you considered. How. Often.
Ponyboy: “This is my brother Soda who is beautiful and handsome and nice and I love him more than anyone in the world and he’s just the most beautiful person EVER LOOK HOW HANDSOME”
Also Ponyboy: “This is Darry and he’s a jerk lol”
A secret, third Ponyboy: “Darry is absolutely jacked have you seen how big his muscles are I need you to understand how tight his t-shirt is right now he’s just super duper strong like he’s the actual STRONGEST I need you to understand”
#like he DOES do the adoring fanboy thing#just in a more grudgingly reluctant way#ponyboy curtis#darry curtis#the outsiders#the outsiders musical#the outsiders movie

Dally: “I don’t like little kids man, I just don’t like ‘em”
Also Dally: walking down the street with two bits sister holding his hand, Johnny wearing his leather jacket because he left his at home, pony trying to tell him about a movie he saw the other day, Angela on his back because she was too lazy to walk, and curly trailing behind and trying to flat tire him
#he’s never without his gaggle of children#the worst babysitter of all time#just because he doesn’t like kids doesn’t mean they don’t like him#the outsiders 1983#the outsiders#the outsiders 1990#the outsiders musical#the outsiders book#dallas winston#ponyboy curtis#darry curtis#johnny cade#sodapop curtis#steve randle#two bit mathews#two bits sister#brenda mathews#curly shepard#angela shepard#tim shepard
