Creatures that live in my brain and they’re not even my characters

Closeups n such

[redamancy-and-daisies]

“ohhh county lockup in that case let’s throw him a punch party!”

is the same exact energy as

“should we throw a party?? should we invite bella hadid??”

[claritys-silly-things]

Guys give me an outsiders character and I’ll spew out whatever comes to mind

Or you can fill my ask box with your hcs idc

[your-unfriendlyghost]

You dig okay, baby

i like mar-bit :)

Idk they’ve got great chemistry, they’re both fun characters, hell there’s even plenty of angst potential lol. They’re the only ship I liked back when I first read the book, almost two years ago now? I dunno why it’s taken me so long to draw/write anything for them, I like them a lot

and fyi she totally gave him her real number

(I tried to imitate and/or refine the style I used in my og stevepop post? Idk I liked that style, it’s not my usual- but it’s really fun to do honestly)

MARBIT

Marbit shippers rejoice as my multishipper ass draws these two. I might be posting more stuff regarding that in the future but it’s a slim chance.

Haven’t decided yet if I want to rejoice or cry over this taking 9 hours; but that’s for future me to decide. Lowkey not too happy w/ this drawing but FUCK IT WE BALL and I don’t wanna spend anymore time on it.

Ponyboy would’ve killed himself had it not been for Darry, soda, and two-bit.

No I’m serious. Looking back on the book you can clearly see just how bad mentally he was doing after the death of Johnny.

He was completely delusional and kept trying to convince himself that Johnny wasn’t dead. Going so far as to tell other people, Randy, that Johnny wasn’t dead and he was actually the one who killed Bob.

Ponyboys mental health took a nose dive after Johnnys death and i genuinely believe he would have killed himself had his family and friends not been there. In the movie Two-bit and Ponyboy hang out all day while his brothers are at work. Making it impossible for him to kill/hurt himself. When two-bit isn’t around, it’s Darry and soda keeping an eye on him.

Ponyboy famously said “why couldn’t dally take it, but I could”

You couldn’t take it Ponyboy. You couldn’t, but you had no way of being able to actually do anything about it. The Curtis gang accidentally saved his life.

Ponyboy Curtis would’ve ended up dead and I stand by that.

Curtis gang post canon having a pool party at Marcia’s house (with marbit and cherrycola)

-ok so Marcia has this really big pool at her house

-and one day when her parents are away and it’s super hot, two bit convinces her to invite the gang over

-it’s chaos

-they are splashing each other and wrestling each other in the water and having sooo much fun

-ya know that game where people sit on top of each others shoulders and try and get the other person to fall into the water? They go to town with that game

-Ace is on Darry’s shoulders and soda is on Steve’s shoulders and ace and soda are pushing and shoving and going to war

-they’re having soooo much fun

-pony being scared of swimming cuz he was almost drowned by Bob is so cannon to me

-he sits with his book on a beach chair the whole time

-cherry comes over and talks with him because sorry they’re besties, but she also swims a ton

-Marcia’s always happiest when she’s swimming, and so two bit is always most in love with her when she’s swimming, so they spend the a lot of the time away from the crowd being tooth rottingly cute

-but he definitely does spend some time lowkey drowning soda, dw tho they’re doing it to each other!

-them and Steve roughhousing in the pool is so real to me

-ace also loves swimming and I think her and Marcia spend some time doing laps together

-darry falls asleep on a beach chair next to pony cuz lord knows he needs some relaxation

Ermm wth is this gang

“C‘mere. Kiss me.”

Marcia looked up from her magazine, staring at Cherry.

“W-what now?”

Cherry looked over at Marcia from her desk. “Oh sorry. Wasn’t talking to you, hon. Just a scene from a movie that’s been stuck in my head all day,” Cherry chuckled, waving her hand dismissively. “You can go back to your magazine.”

Marcia was too distracted to go back to that now. She stood up, hovering behind Cherry and trying to get a look at the doodles she was doing in the corner of her page instead of writing her paper. They seemed to be of a man and a woman leaning against each other, sitting down and enjoying each other’s company.

“Wow, those are pretty good, Cher,” Marcia marveled.

The drawings wouldn’t win any awards by a professional’s standards, but in Marcia’s eyes, they were stunning.

Cherry reddened a bit at the praise.

“Oh, they’re nothin.’ Just some more stuff from the movie scene I was taking about,” she said wistfully.

“What movie was it?” Marcia asked, curious now.

“Well that’s the thing, it showed randomly at The Nightly Double, and I was only there for maybe the last twenty minutes of the movie. I never got the name of it,” Cherry sighed. “Speaking of the drive-in, are you ready to go? One of my new friends is coming to meet us there.”

Marcia backed up from the desk, checking herself over in Cherry’s mirror before nodding.

“Yeah, I’m ready.” She processed what Cherry said for a moment before asking, “What friend is this? Is it someone I know?”

Cherry looked up as she grabbed her purse.

“Yeah, it’s that one greaser boy we met a few months ago. Ponyboy. He’s awful thoughtful, we understand each other,” Cherry said, walking towards the door. “I think you’d get along with him.”

Marcia just stared at Cherry.

“What about me screams ‘thoughtful?’” Marcia joked.

“I guess you’re right,” Cherry chuckled. “He’s a sweet kid though, and I think he’s bringing the dark haired kid, Johnny, with him. Be nice.”

Marcia smirked a bit at that.

“I make no promises, hon,” she joked, hooked her arm through Cherry’s as they walked out of the house to Cherry’s car.

When they were about halfway to the drive-in, Marcia remembered something about the names “Ponyboy” and “Johnny.” She’d heard them before.

Then she remembered the paper that had come out the day after she and Cherry had met those two greaser boys: “Hoods Stab Nice West-Side Boy and Make a Run for It.”

What the fuck.

“Aww, Cherry, are we meeting with the boys that nearly killed your ex-boyfriend?” Marcia said, looking at Cherry exasperatedly.

“Okay, well, yes, but it was self defense. Besides the, y’know, stabbing part, they’ve never done anything too bad. Rumbles and fights, sure, but so have our boys!”

Marcia just stared at her best friend.

“Yeah okay.”

She thought for a moment, remembering what their conversation had been about before the greaser boys.

“D’ya reckon they’ll show the film you saw that you can’t remember the name of?” Marcia asked absentmindedly.

Cherry thought for a moment. “Prolly not, but it’d be nice if they did. I’ll tell you if they do.”

They drove in silence for a minute before Cherry asked Marcia, “We stayin’ for both movies?”

“Hell yes we are.”
