#modern sodapop

[golden-rolling-hills]

Soda is the kind of guy who always has some stupid ass song or tiktok audio stuck in his head and he absolutely will not stop singing/saying it no matter how much it annoys everyone including himself sometimes.

[girlishwhimsies]

two-bit and soda being that one “pretending to be a toxic married couple in ikea” meme is so important to me. god they’d be so annoying

That’s all I’m willing to do, I have been scrolling through my quotes on discord for a very long time.

I really wanna label which quotes I said just to show how absolutely hilarious I am (in denial of my own terrible comedy)

A lot of the ponyboy quotes were me 🧍🏽‍♂️

[ramennoodlezzzao3]

outsiders modern AU head cannons

The gang would absolutely FORBID Ponyboy or Johnny to take an Uber or lift, they said they had to call one of them if they didn’t have a way home. It’s “Dangerous” to get into an Uber because it’s a stranger (I have a finished, unpublished one-shot about Ponyboy in this situation if yall want me to post it 🤭)

Darry refuses to get messenger or Facebook. He uses Life360 and the built in phone app to message Sodapop and Pony. He eventually got messenger so he could be apart of the group chat.

Ponyboy has several secret social media accounts. He posts on them and has quite the following, but has practically blocked every member of the gang so they can’t watch him.

Darry watches the news all the time unless someone changes it

Dally can’t count how many times he’s broken his phone

Two-Bit orders DoorDash just so he can get beers delivered. He also has to buy any soda of pony’s he drank

(Not really a modern HC but it’s a HC) Ponyboy actually HATES Pepsi, but he drinks it because people often buy it for him without asking what he wants. His favorite soda is actually Dr. Pepper, specifically the cherry flavored

Ponyboy used vapes instead of cigarettes to try and quit smoking. Steve was the one who found out and literally destroyed all of his vapes so that pone didn’t get sick

Sodapop uses instagram a LOT. He doesn’t have a huge following, less than pony has on TikTok, maybe around 5K followers? But he notices the pictures he posts with pony get LOTS of likes and views and he always gets so confused as to why

Johnny knows virtually every single TikTok dance known to man

Johnny and Ponyboy watch horror movies together (Johnny knows way to much about murder and scares everyone)

Ponyboy has a soft boy style while everyone else is literally leather jackets and jeans. He literally is the color in the gang

Two-Bit talks in TikTok language and that’s it. He will say stuff like “Chat” and “Cap” and Ponyboy is the only one who fully understands what he is even saying

[claritys-silly-things]

Dally: So. Who broke it? I’m not mad. I just want to know.

Johnny: I did. I broke it—

Dally: No. No, you didn’t. Soda?

Soda: Don’t look at me. Look at Two-Bit.

Two-Bit: What?? I didn’t break it.

Soda: Huh. That’s weird. How’d you even know it was broken?

Two-Bit: Because it’s sitting right in front of us, and it’s broken!

Soda: Suspicious.

Two-Bit: No, it’s not!

Steve: I-If it matters, probably not���Pony was the last one to use it.

Pony: *gasp* Liar! I don’t even drink that crap!

Steve: Oh really? Then what were you doing by the coffee cart earlier?

Pony: I use the wooden stirrers to push back my cuticles. Everyone knows that, Stevie!

Johnny: Alright let’s not fight. I broke it, let me pay for it, Dally.

Dally: No. Who broke it??

Everyone: …

Two-Bit: [whispering] Dally, Darry’s been awfully quiet…

Darry: Really?!

Two-Bit: Yeah, really!

Darry: Oh my God!!

…

Dally: I broke it. I burned my hand so I punched it. I predict ten minutes from now, they’ll be at each other’s throats with warpaint on their faces and a pig head on a stick.

Dally: …

Dally: Good. It was getting a little chummy around here.

ᴺᴼᵂ ᴾᴸᴬᵞᴵᴺᴳ : Ponyboy

• Is a big fan of the Simpsons and can quote almost any episode word by word.

• Says that The Godfather is his favorite movie ever but it’s actually Mamma Mia. He secretly loves musicals.

• Is the only one with a Tumblr account and he’s pretty active in there.

• Definitely writes fan fiction or character studies in AO3.

•The only person that knows about that and gets to read them is Johnny.

• His pfp always matches Johnny’s in any social media platform.

• When he feels annoyed/pissed by his brothers, he likes signing them up for random ass newsletters and whatnot, making sure they get spammed constantly.

• He loves digital books and owns a Kindle but he feels like nothing compares to real books.

• His bi awakening was watching hunger games with dally and seeing peeta, made things worse when he saw the fnaf movie, he’s just a wh0re for josh hutcherson. (He would’ve made the whistle baby edit /j 😣😣🔥🔥)

ᴺᴼᵂ ᴾᴸᴬᵞᴵᴺᴳ : Sodapop

• Is the only one who can actually use TikTok and he’s pretty popular. He loves doing trends with the gang, probably forcing them to do the cinnamon challenge. (they agree bc they're all stupid)

• Loves avocados a lot and gets teased for posting pictures of his meals.

• His favorite game is Assassins Creed but isn’t a big fan of the community and fandom around the game. He just wants to play it and have fun.

•Facetimes the rest of the group whenever he wants, specially Ponyboy and Darry.

ᴺᴼᵂ ᴾᴸᴬᵞᴵᴺᴳ : Darry

•He’s the owner of the only Netflix and/or any other streaming accounts of the group and is the one who pays for it. The rest of the gang add their own profiles and watch everything they want. (Or they share one account, there is no inbetween)

• Likes to keep up with the news and current affairs, so he follows a lot of reporters and activists on Twitter and Facebook. He’s subscribed to lots of newsletters for sure.

• Was the biggest football star of his school and got a scholarship thanks to it. He went to college but had to stop playing football eventually due to a freak accident on the field. However, this didn’t sadden him, since he got his diploma and works in things related to football anyways, he works as a coach for the local youth football team.

• His phone password is Ponyboy and soda’s birthdays mixed together.

• He is a big fan of No Doubt, when he found out that they were performing at Coachella, he absolutely lost it and started saving for a ticket immediately. When he went and saw them in the front row he cried, absolutely WEEPED.

• Constant listener of destiny’s child and connects with survivor on a personal level and he’s not scared to admit, you’ll sometimes hear him singing it while he’s doing stuff around the house while listening to music

ᴺᴼᵂ ᴾᴸᴬᵞᴵᴺᴳ : Dally

•Has been blocked by multiple celebrities on Twitter AND instagram, on various occasions.

•Is a very big fan of The Hunger Games and one of his favorite characters is Peeta.

•Makes sure to be the first one to text Johnny on his birthday, even if they’re standing next to each other.

•Loves crime/serial killer podcasts and has good knowledge about these topics.

•Hates going to the dentist. There is a very embarrassing video of him being out of it after getting one of his wisdom teeth removed that Johnny recorded (Dally forced Johnny to take him since he was scared).

•Is always listening to music and doesn’t like sharing his earphones unless it’s Johnny.

•Has practiced a lot of sports during his life and his favorite one so far is boxing.

•Got drunk one New Year’s Eve and confessed that Darry was like the brother he wished he had had, and that his New Years Resolution was to make it up to Darry (He never did, since he had forgotten). and nobody has ever let him live it down.

•Secret fanboy of the neighborhood, one time he thought nobody was home and started singing daddy issues at the top of his lungs, two-bit has it on video and never lets him hear the end of it about it.

• Still enjoys stealing and robbing old ladies and young children and still enjoys annoying random pretty girls on the street (so basically still and ahole)

ᴺᴼᵂ ᴾᴸᴬᵞᴵᴺᴳ : Johnny

• Wears denim overalls with cute sweaters and loves jackets with lots of pockets.

• Loves spicy food and is the only one in the group who can actually eat it without any problem.

• Has always wanted a puppy or any kind of pet but his situation at home always made it impossible. Because of this, Pony gifted him a goldfish one Christmas and they set the fish tank at the Curtis’ so Johnny could visit it as much as he wanted without risking getting his parents angry.

• He gets really attached to that fish pretty fast and treasures the gesture behind it. Pony and him name is Frost.

• Pony and him use Twitter DM’s just to send memes to each other and store them.

• He has a private Twitter account that only Pony gets to follow.

• Can speak Spanish and French.

•Owns a leather jacket that had been Dally’s a couple of years ago and takes care of it as if it was made of gold.

ᴺᴼᵂ ᴾᴸᴬᵞᴵᴺᴳ : Two-Bit

• He’s the reason why Darry had to get a Disney+ account.

• Knows all the songs from Frozen I.

• Wanted to have a mouse as a pet (since…mickey mouse, duh.) for a while but Darry refused.

• He doesn’t admit it, but he loves sweet drinks made of fruits and cocktails more than beer.

• His socks never match and they all have at least one hole in them.

• Is the one that gets the most excited about Christmas. He’s not particularly religious but he loves the decorations, and the lights, and the whole mood in general. He’s the one that always makes sure the rest of the boys have presents, even if it’s something small.

• His first time going to disney world he bawled his eyes out, like full on mental breakdown inside the park, Ponyboy and Sodapop saved up all their birthday money, allowance, and paycheck money for about a year and a half to buy the tickets. (they wanted to get a fast pass and like the entire deluxe trip for him, that's why it took so long.) Ponyboy was SO embarrassed from two-bits crying, “You’re 22, Stop. Crying. Over. Mickey.” but still was happy for him.

ᴺᴼᵂ ᴾᴸᴬᵞᴵᴺᴳ : Steve

• He tells everyone his top artist is Limp Bizkit but it's actually Queen, his top song was good old fashioned lover boy.

• Wakes up early to watch the F1 races and has never missed a season of Top Gear since he was little. His favorite was Hamilton, but ever since he saw that race with verstappen vs hamilton, his opinions have changed…

• He’s the best at playing video games, and he especially likes horror ones like Resident Evil. (absolute wh0re for Leon Kennedy, i am too tho so no shame)

• Sodapop and him are always playing online together and they sometimes let Ponyboy join them. Him and Sodapop gave ponyboy an unplugged controller once and said it was wireless (for the shitz and giggles and to see how long it took for him to notice), he realized half way through the game and told Darry who then yelled at them for 5 minutes.

• Doesn’t like TikTok and is always going about how Vine was just much better. (He’s stuck in 2014..)

• Gets angry when his texts go unanswered in the group chat (they do it on purpose since they know it pisses him off.)

• He listens to cotton eye joe on repeat, change my mind.

[theblack-dog]

Modern day Darry would be one of those people that brings his little sibling to all his fights so they could record it for him.

[blueberyboy]

I made some silly designs for like modern outsiders.

[4-ustin]

Modern!The Outisders playing Just Dance

Ponyboy

-His favourite songs are; Happy, Dynamite (Tiao Cruz), and What Makes You Beautiful because I damn said so

-If he likes the song, he dances his heart out, if not? All that's required is his arms

-Usually he'll just sit back with Johnny anyways

-He'll cheer on Soda and Two-Bit and that's it

-Jeers at Darry for not playing and says he "needs to exercise those old man bones!"

-He also forces Johnny to play Timber and I Gotta Feeling with him

Johnnycake

-He doesn't actually play a lot, mostly because he thinks it's embarrassing.

-although, he will record all the others dancing for keepsake

-He only dances to Timber, I Gotta Feeling, and Footloose

-if he does do it he's nervously giggling and laughing the entire time cause he's embarrassed

-He is genuinely so good at footloose it is fucking crazy, bro can do everything with his feet (except run from those socs 😔)

Dally

-He'll play, but he only uses his arms like the lazy, cheating fuck he is (Im literally in love with this man!! Dallas Slander y'all!!)

-UNLESS it's Rasputin.

-He likes to flex the fact that he can do the Prisyadka as low as the Just Dance dancer does

-Everyone cheers him on when he does it, too

-Begs Johnny to send him the videos, especially of Two-Bit when he does it when he's drunk

Two-Bit

-He's always drunk when he plays, sometimes tipsy, sometimes hammered

-Also loves Rasputin, but he cant do the Prisyadka as well as Dallas does

-His favs are; Rasputin, Chiwawa, and Call Me Maybe

-Sometimes he passes out in the middle of dancing, Dallas finds it hilarious but whoever laughs first has to Carry Two-Bit up onto the couch

Darry

-He doesn't play because of his old man bones (he's just sore from work!!)

Sodapop

-He and Steve play Timber with all the passion in the damn world

-Sometimes its genuinely homoerotic

-He loves ALL the songs, he is so good at them and puts his whole damn body into it

-If he knows the song, he's singing along.

-Asks Johnny to send him all the videos of himself because he thinks he's so damn cool, he feels like a backup dancer preforming for people

Steve

-He only dances with Sodapop, he will not dance with anybody else

-Photobomb's Johnny's videos

-Stares at Soda's ass and gets teased about it, spesifically By Dallas and Two-bit (STEVEPOP.)

-Sometimes when he's not dancing he'll just pace around the couch to keep himself busy

[golden-rolling-hills]

Modern Ponyboy would be obsessed with the perks of being a wallflower. He made Soda learn the choreography to the living room routine with him.

[alaskan-wallflower]

yall think darry would commit emoji abuse but imagine soda goddamn like darry texts him to put the chicken in the oven and he texts y back with “ok🫡🫡🫡 💯💯💯🔥🔥 🔥 🗣️🗣️🗣️ 🍗 “

[eviesqueezie]

just thinking about how in modern aus the gang all have phones

like you cannot tell me they would be able to afford them in the first place. maybe two bit steals one (and breaks it the next day) or dally

but also i feel like they wouldn’t really care THAT much about phones/the internet?? like these freaks have wayy bigger problems

on another unrelated note ponyboy would definitely be the kid who didn’t get a phone until he was like 16

[clarity2electricboogaloo]

Outsiders shit. Some modern some not idfk

These are all like. The most crack-filled hcs ever, please excuse my brain 🙏🏽🙏🏽 if these don’t make sense to you, tell me

- also Johnny: *pulls out a cigarette for each hand*

- pony does the same thing

- twobit and Marcia are either gay-lesbian solidarity or they’re dating, no in between

- if they’re gay, they’re a beard couple just like “we pretend to date, they can’t catch on” “I like the way you think, woman”

- ily twobit matthews. That’s all.

- twobit and Marcia are actually both Hispanic, its canon trust I was there

- dally types “women ☕️” in instagram comment sections

- also “it’s bc I’m a man isn’t it”

- (ty V on discord for that second one 🙏🏽🙏🏽)

- cherry and dally argue on twitter

- a lot

- dally spams cherry and then she absolutely COOKS this pathetic rat man

- dally blocks cherry, doesn’t talk to her for a while, then eventually forgets and unblocks her to harass the poor girl again

- cherry doesn’t realize blocking is a thing, but she complains to marcia and marcia shows her how to block Dallas

- dally, two bit, and Steve are all hopelessly addicted to twitter

- like it’s really fucking bad

- someone get these mfs off the internet

- if soda and Darry are gone, pony will grab Johnny and they’ll sleep together

- not in a weird way you freaks

- pony just genuinely cannot sleep

- I may or may not be influenced by fics I’ve read…

- soda saw them one night when he got home late and was like “…queers?”

- he stays out a bit later than usual now, often found sleeping in another room

- Darry actually supports more than pony thought, when he comes out, Darry is like a pride parade mom frfr

- kinda lowkey overbearing with it

- ily Darrel curtis

- soda is the typa guy to genuinely not understand lgbtq+ but supports anyways

- sodas the typa guy to be asked what his pronouns are and say “just he/him. Wish I had smth more interesting, but I’m just a guy :D”

- on the other end of that, soda and Steve are gay

- everyone is gay

- all of them

- so very fucking gay
