SE Hinton: Names her characters Ponyboy, Sodapop, Two Bit, M&M, Rusty-James…

Also SE Hinton: Names two of her characters Johnny and two Steve in separate books

[grease-got-a-hold]

my the outsiders printing hcs and a little blurb about all of them 😌

ponyboy: pretentious af, absolutely tiny printing, mocks everyone else’s (except curlys), writes cringey love letters to curly in the most elaborate cursive ever even though he can’t read it, soda also can’t read it

soda: abhorrent printing, can barely read his own writing (or any writing), no one else can read it either, dyslexic af, failed kindergarten

darry: thinks the uppercase makes his printing look grown up, gets mocked by his brothers who say he doesn’t know lowercase, writes his whole name every. single. time.

steve: thinks the way he writes his ‘e’ is special, constantly asked by soda why there is a three in his writing (it’s the e), soda can barely read it

two-bit: doesn’t really care about his printing, can be really messy but only when he’s writing fast, letters really close together, soda can barely read it

johnny: somewhat neat printing, but super flat, fast writer, loves writing with pens and hates pencils, soda struggles to read it due to the flatness

dally: cannot read anything except for names of people he knows and words that are familiar to him, can write his own name and barely anything else, fucking stupid, pony tried to teach him how to read and nearly got murdered

curly: only writes in lowercase cause he hates tim and wanted to be different from him (he writes in all uppercase) hates writing cause his hands cramp, pony loves his printing

tim: hates how similar his printing is to darry’s so he changes it up sometimes, very squished letters (used to be different [less squished] but it was too similar to darry’s)

[frantic-babbling]

I fear I've been building up a bunch of yapping posts about my insanely deranged thoughts and they're going to boil over

the real question is are they going to come out this weekend, or can I hold off until one more midterm next week....

[imdead770]

you know how in The Outsiders book they mention drag races

like a lot

when I first read it in school truly believed they were drag queens.

I literally thought they just stopped being greasers for a bit, threw on a wig and some lipstick, and strutted across the street to a drag race.

honestly I'm disappointed that isn't the reality.

[frantic-babbling]

HELP

wait how was the darry x paul scene??!!

when paul steps off the tire in the beginning of the confrontation, he got closer to darry than normal and legit looked him up and down, then scoffed and started walking in the circle.

then paul got over to soda. soda kicked a bunch of gravel at him and paul legit stopped and just laughed in soda’s face and said the line about the madra shirt while looking at soda ,,BUT!!!!!!!!

he said “still got that purple and gold madras shirt i GOT you?” instead of “gave you?” and that made me go into a delusional state for the entirety of the rumble

[annesboloser]

May I request Darry? And perhaps Darry and Soda as a pair? Pretty pretty please?

‘my name is ponyboy, the youngest of the three’ - the curtis brothers!

I LOVE THEM

please like if you use <3

[listofwhyyouloveher]

Alright hear me out with both ears. Gang with a friend who's a girl that's always been the duff, she's seen as ugly by others and them. So basically gang with a ugly girl friend/platonic/

Summary: Outsiders with a friend who's considered a duff

Warnings: Beauty standards (blargh)

Author's Note: IK UR LYING CUZ ALL OUTSIDERS STANS ARE PRETTY FYM. also beauty is sooo subjective that it might as well be studied in a phsychology class, you guys all are pretty idgaf

PONYBOY would never consider you as ugly, but he understands that you might have trouble with your looks. He's always trying to be reassuring and kind, he'll make sure no ugly gossip comes around to you and tries to stop it if he can. He think's of you as a friend only because he's too young to really be thinking about serious dating, never take that personally. He likes to be the person who says 'beauty is on the inside', plus he genuinely believes it because he sees how the greasers are considered the 'duffs' of society.

JOHNNY generally does not give 2 shits about your looks. In his society he's also considered 'a duff' and he takes it with pride. He's glad he's able to have a title that makes him stand out like his ultimate icon, Dally. You've relied a lot on personality to get you places, which Johnny finds to be amazing, he thinks you're so pure and kind that he's genuinely kind of jealous of your attitude towards life. He thinks that you don't deserve any of the cards you've been played, that you're destined for more than Tulsa.

SODAPOP has always been centered around looks. He's gotten away with so much because he's attractive and he knows it. He knows that girls like and he knows what he needs to do and who he needs to hang out with in order to maintain that. However, he finds your likeness and perception of everything to be really immaculate. He'll often skip work just to sit by you and watch the people go by. Sodapop will never talk about looks around you, he doesn't know if it's a touchy subject or not but he wants to refrain from thinking shallowly.

STEVE has always been a little insecure, whether it be his teeth, his nose, or how big his biceps are. He's always seceretly in a competition with Soda, comparing himself to him all the time. He doesn't hang out with you because he "relates" to you, but because he thinks that's he's rather adept at seeing past the thin layer of skin. He's always been rather good at reading people, your entire being screamed "beautiful" whether or not some fake standard says it or not.

TWO BIT is also somewhat insecure, but it's because of his constant comparison to the soc life versus his. He knows his clothes aren't as stylish and his hair is damaged from the grease and he frowns when he's alone looking at the mirror, but he thrives on the niche compliments you two give each other, "you're personality is amazing,", "You're an amazing caretaker, im sure your sister is so happy," etc. To him those are the things that really count.

DARRY pretends like he knows where his life is going, he pretends he likes it too, but secretly he cannot wait for Pony and Soda to grow up and take care of themselves so he can relaxed, and maybe even live like a soc. He knows he's attractive, he gets compliments all the time, but he's used to them and they don't mean anything. He likes to spend time with you because he gets a glimpse into the life of someone who actually has their hands on the wheel, someone who knows what to do next. He comes to you a lot when he's stressed, he's never even thought about how you look, that doesn't matter to him.

DALLAS had always been about looks. He had his first girlfriend when he was 10, she was 13 and the prettiest girl on the block. You? The hours spent in front of the mirror wondering whether it was worth it or not could delegate where you fell in the social pyramid. Dallas saw that, but for some reason he also saw your whip like smart, your immaculate talent for everything, and your coolness in the face of anything that could oppose you. He learned that no matter what he tried to do, get you to wear make up, doing your hair differently, even truing new clothes, that you always looked and felt the best with your usual self, just happy.

RUTHLESS LEMME TELL YOU

if this boy gets ahold of even a green shell you are OUT of here

comes up from behind and wins like 80% of the time

iconic

sodapop:

probably lives for daisy or honestly mario

and then steve is luigi😭

he gets so hype when he’s winning

trash talks like no other

but unlike SOMEONE *ponyboy* he doesn’t really care when he loses

which is often i’m sorry man😔

he just gets distracted by the tracks and all the mystery boxes and power ups he just disassociates LMAOO

also spends too much time talking whilst playing and just falls back to 12th place ngl

darry:

he really tries to make sure everyone’s being a good sport

but he himself starts raging the second he hits a banana💀

lowk gives up and just stops playing halfway thru when he realizes he’s gonna lose and blames it on “all the work i gotta do around here…”

WE ALL KNOW YOU JUST CANT FACE REALITY

denial is the curtis brothers collective middle name😔✊

dally:

mains bowser or dry bones…only chooses cars based on how cool they look

gets the MOST pressed

acts like he doesn’t gaf cause people pressured him to play so he’s like

“ugh whatever fine i guess 🙄”

but the instant someone starts trashing on him or a he sees the red shell alert go off in the bottom of the screen

HE GOES FERAL

just calling everyone and the computers the most foul names

doesnt give up though cause “mama didn’t raise a quitter”

he just locks in and gets to second place but ends up losing so���

two-bit:

super fun to play with

hed start tweaking the second he hits a banana

gets grudges against computer players

he probably plays as waluigi ngl😭

if he’s not playing and you are he’s fr the best cheerleader

just adds that extra spice to every game🥰

steve:

like crazy intense💀

broseph will GET OUT OF HIS SEAT if he begins to either pass people or starts to lose

just gets as close to the screen as possible

claims his knowledge of cars allows him to select the best kart

lowk works cause why is he actually good LMAO

[blazestar]

RAHHH YESS THANK YOU FOR DEVELOPING THIS THIS IS EVERYTHING AND ICONIC YESS

what about the gang decorating sugar cookies with with that hard icing together for Christmas or another occasion send ask

Yes!!! It would be so chaotic but joyous at the same time 😔 they would all be yelling at each other but in a fun way and laughing and getting icing all over each other. Soda and Steve eat too much of the icing so there’s hardly enough smh. Johnny is discreetly eating the cookies before they’re decorated and he’s so slick about it and it’s driving Pony insane bc he’s like “I swear we had 6 cookies how do we only have 4 left 🤨🤨🤨” and he cannot figure it out. Darry gets super artistic and into it and his cookies are actually super pretty. Two-Bit is good as decorating as well and he makes cute festive cookies to take home to his sister. Him and Darry are the ones everyone goes to for help like cutting the tip of the piping bag/frosting tube, making sure the cookies are cooled down enough, etc. Dally just puts a glob of frosting on his cookies and eats them in one bite. So much fun ❤️

🐾The Outsiders as Dogs🐾

This list is inspired by this adorable list that @dallasgallant made! It was so cute that I had to make my own. I grew up in horse town until I was twelve (lots and lots of farmland, seasonal rodeos, etc) so the breeds that I've chosen are dogs that I saw pretty often or were aware of.

Ponyboy: The Belgian Laekenois

So for the Curtis brothers, I wanted to keep them all in the same family, and what better farm dog breed to pick from than the Belgian Shepherd! These dogs are very intelligent and eager to please, on top of being very affectionate. And while they're an overall family dog, they can also get attached to one person in particular, and that just really reminds me of Pony and Soda's relationship.

Sodapop: The Belgian Tervuven

Now the Belgian Tervuven, while primarily being great farm hands, are commonly used as therapy and service dogs. They're also really easygoing and recognizable by their beautiful, fluffy coats. I can just imagine Tervuven!Soda cuddling up with Laekenois!Pony after he has bad nightmare.

Darry: The Belgian Malinois

Rounding up the Curtis brother is Darry as the Belgian Malinois. Out of the different breeds in the Belgian Shepherd family, these dogs are known for their unwavering work ethic and solid intelligence. This just screams Darry to me and it doesn't help that Malinois can gel really well with energetic breeds and well, the perfect breed to be the unofficial leader of a gang of energetic pooches.

Johnny: The Border Collie

Now I know that Johnny isn't the most hyperactive character, but he is one of the most independent, and Border Collies are known work very well by themselves. Combined with their quick reaction time and high levels of intelligence, I can think of no better dog to represent Johnny.

Dally: The Kangal Shepherd

Kangal Shepherds are traditional guardian dogs and have been known to fend off wolves and other predators (i.e. cheetahs—yes cheetahs—in certain parts of Africa). Unfortunately, this breed is also very prominent in dog fighting rings, where their aggression for natural predators is turned on its head for other dog breeds. I'm very much reminded of Dally's violence and his protectiveness of Johnny in this breed.

Steve: The Catahoula Leopard Dog

These dogs, while very agile and intelligent, are very energetic and require a little more attention than most farm dogs. It's not very hard to visualize Catahoula!Steve nagging Tervuven!Soda to play with him lol.

Two Bit: The Black Mouth Cur

The two most defining traits of the Black Mouth Cur are their sensitivity and loyalty to their flock and their owners. They're fearless in the face of predators but also goofy and lovable, just like Two Bit!

Cherry: The Cocker Spaniel

I can only see the Socs as show dog breeds so ofc I had to give Cherry the Cocker Spaniel. Their redish-brownish fur is pretty iconic, just like Cherry's red hair.

Marcia: The Cavalier King Charles

Just like Cherry, another show dog. The Cavalier King Charles is very affectionate and open to interacting to strangers, so please imagine King Charles!Marcia and Black Mouth Cur!Two Bit hitting it off and playing with each other.

[crow2222]

You should totally write abt Pony finding out Darry has reading glasses bc he gives him his report card and Darry just stares at it for a few seconds like he’s trying to burn a hole in the paper lmao

This is pretty short but I have multiple short drabbles about my darry wearing glasses vision.. I'll probably upload them on ao3 sometime

Ponyboy wasn't at all happy about bringing his report card back to Darry; like a soldier reporting back from orders. Even if they had been fighting less since Sodapop convinced them to, the fear still lingered.

It was a silly fear, he knew that, especially because it was his own brother he was afraid of. That faraway, heartbroken look that Darry carried for days after reading his paper broke Ponyboy more.

Here he was, a chance to redeem himself; a card full of A's, apart from the one B+, it was sure to cheer Darry up, no matter what; but the gnawing worry never felt his mind as he shakily handed it to his older brother who sat at the kitchen table.

He waited for any sign of emotion in Darry's face; but found none.

He just stared at the paper.

The fear hit him full force, blown away by how not even his average of one B is enough anymore. His fists curled up as his mind reeled; he waited for the sigh of disappointment or a flat toned "Good job.", but neither happened.

Then he took another look at his brothers face, and he realised Darry was squinting at it! Ponyboy gawked as he even seemingly brought it up closer to his face. He was about to question his brother too, but was stopped when a smile appeared on the man's face.

"Ponyboy this is amazing! You're back to these grades at this level?" The paper was gently placed back in his palm as he stood there, dumbfounded, "Great work buddy, proud of you."

His smile was genuine, and Ponyboy foolishly wondered if it was the first time he'd seen it directed at him instead of Sodapop.

His shoulder was pulled back suddenly-

"Pony! Wanna go with me and Steve to the races?" Sodapop flashed his iconic grin, putting the Cheshire cat to shame. Ponyboy accepted the offer, leaving his grades on the coffee table as they left; only after Darry confirmed it was fine, of course.

The car was silent as the three sped down the road, but as Ponyboy's head repeatedly banged against the window; only one question was on his mind.

"Hey remember how Dad needed reading glasses?"

"Sure I do."

"Does Darry need them, too?"
