Little Sister Curtis Headcanons

these were inspired by this request and co-created with my pal @a-libra-writes!!

Libra and I came up with the name “Sunshine” because 1) it’s adorable and 2) you can’t tell me that’s not a name that Mom and Papa Curtis wouldn’t have had written down on the baby name list. Her brothers usually call her by her first name, but Sunny also works just fine.

Only about a year gap between Sunny and Ponyboy which places her at around 13 if we’re going based off the book’s events (while ignoring certain plot elements that make me sad, thank you)

Sunny is a bit more like Darry after their parents die; she tries to keep the house clean and take over her mom’s responsibilities. Because if Darry is gonna earn the money, maybe she can help this way. Her brothers worry that she’s growing up too fast and try to get her to take it easy (pots meet kettle!!!). 

Darry tries to take her out to the movies when she gets stressed out even if he falls asleep 10 minutes in. She doesn’t really mind that he dozes off, she’s used to it. It's the thought that counts. 

Soda has her come to work with him sometimes and help out on the cars. “Learn something!” as if she doesn’t learn enough at school. Comes home dirtied and tired of Soda and Steve, complains a bit but she's smiling.

Tags along with Ponyboy to anywhere he wants. They usually go for walks and talk about school and the gang. 

If Johnny is the “pet brother” for the Gang, Sunny is the pet sister and has an interesting relationship with the rest of the boys.

Two Bit is viewed as a “decent” brother figure and he at least knows how to act around a younger sister. Probably the most likely out of the group (next to her actual brothers) to look after Sunny like his own kid sister. There’s no antics you can get up to that surprise him anymore than he’s already used to. 

Steve is a pest to her and gets in the way of spending time with Soda. They have a small rivalry but it’s less tense then Steve and Pony’s relationship for sure. Sunny doesn’t tag along nearly as much so it kinda evens things out. 

Dally and Sunny…..are what I’d describe as a Tom and Jerry dynamic but who's Tom and who's Jerry is always changing. Mutual chaos and the source of that chaos switches depending on the day. Dally is on Sunny’s shit list because he made a comment about her cooking once. Which, to be fair to Dallas, the potatoes in the soup WERE NOT cooked through so he was right, but she still holds a little grudge. It doesn’t matter if he was the only person to actually eat all of it. She scolds Dally for putting his feet on the coffee table, he calls her a brat, she aims the football for the back of his head, he pulls on her hair and purposefully calls her by the wrong name. Laughs like a fiend when she yells “Dallas Winston im gonna knock your head right off!". But she also knows that Dallas would be the first person to knock someone’s teeth out if she needed him to. 

Johnny is her pal and she enjoys his company the most of the Gang. He’s a good escape from the rowdy bunch and he doesn’t cause nearly as much damage in the house as the rest, he helps with the dishes and he laughs at her jokes. She likes him and he likes her and they’ve got each other’s backs.

The Brothers are worried about raising a sister. I mean they know fundamentally that she needs what they do and that for the last 13 years they’ve been doing a good job of looking out for her, but all 3 of them are concerned that they’re not enough for Sunshine. Not only did she lose her parents, she lost her Mom and she doesn’t have anyone who can fill that spot. Mrs. Matthews helps when she can and she’s a lifesaver to Darry when he has questions, but he can’t shake the feeling that Sunshine was robbed of better and stuck with them. 

Darry goes a bit easier on Sunshine than he does with Ponyboy. Part of that is because Sunshine and him are more alike than the other two siblings, so they understand each other better. The other part is that Darry thinks Sunshine is already taking on too much responsibility by trying to replace their mom. 

Darry taught her how to fight when she was like 9 and she’s gotten into good scraps with the Gang, but Darry and the rest are adamant that she stay out of fights because she’s too little. Sunshine is all too ready to toss out that she’s only a year younger than Ponyboy! To which the rest of the boys say, “He’s a kid, you’re a baby”. This in fact does not stop her from fighting when she needs to but she does try her best to stay out of trouble for Darry, especially after their parent’s deaths. 

She loved so much. Darry doesn’t say it nearly as much as he knows he should (and that applies to all his siblings) but he goes out of his way to make sure Sunshine has something special just for herself once in a while. Soda routinely suggests getting her a haircut when he notices her messing with it or hears her one off comment about not feeling pretty or looking nice. Ponyboy tries his best to help her out around the house or with her homework. She knows they love her and she loves them.

I love you 3000 writing bonanza!

I’ve hit 3000 followers!!!

Now if you remember a while ago I asked how you guys would like to celebrate and this is what I’ve come up with! If you remember my 2.5k Followers Writing Challenge and Exchange its kinda similar to that but I’ve made some improvements!

What is going to happen is I am going to open up my askbox/dms for requests!

To make this manageable and allow me to complete as many as possible I will only be accepting requests in these following forms:

1) A question about a character or series

2) A What If…. For one of my series

Dark Fics are allowed (Non-Con/Dub-Con) but they MUST BE APPROPRIATELY TAGGED!

Any creation MUST BE ORIGINAL! No stealing, stealing is bad!

The creation if part of a series must be able to be read as a stand alone!

No word limit! If it’s over 500 please use the read more function!

Ro's Monthly Edit

April 7th, 2024 - May 5th, 2024

In case you missed any of the new posted content this month, here's a handy-dandy list with short excerpts and links to all of them!

Warning: while none of the snippets are themselves explicit, a good number of the writings this month were 18+ only. Please read all warnings at the beginning of each post, and minors, please stick with works included in the Light Masterlist.

*I've only added excerpts of the two dirty headcanon asks that were written in a narrative/story style. The rest are on the list linked below.

Various Dirty Headcanons (see full list) featuring characters: Steve Rogers, Ransom Drysdale, Jake Jensen, Lloyd Hansen, Johnny Storm, Ari Levinson, Jimmy Dobyne, and Curtis Everett

Big Girls Don't Cry, from It Had To Be You (explicit) CEO!Steve Rogers x assistant/co-CEO!Reader

Steve sees you shiver and scrambles to find the blanket, tucking it around you but not giving you space to hide your face. He cups your cheek so you can't cover your eyes either, thumb sweeping across the wet streaks left behind, asking if you're ready to talk to him about it, but you shake your head. "I love you," you do say. "I just hate you a little right now."

Dirty Water, from Sun, Salt, and Shield (explicit) Steve Rogers x deep sea mermaid!Reader

Even in the very low light of damp room, he could see the lavender of your stare drop to his crotch. "You sing too?" Steve's an idiot. He didn't understand yet, so that dumbass actually began humming 'You Are My Sunshine' because nothing else occurred to him. Then he noticed your tail glowing beneath the scales. Then he realized you were pressing yourself to his legs. Aaaand then Steve Rogers looked down your body to witness his knee disappearing in a spongy spot where the armoring swelled apart. Oh god.

Untitled Ask, from Sun, Salt, and Shield Steve Rogers x deep sea mermaid!Reader

The most heart-warming thing Steve teaches you is the hug. So simple. So reminiscent of your first meeting. If you lay your head on his chest, your face can remain underwater to breathe and hold onto Steve indefinitely, and he's tried. The longest he's gone is five straight hours of just you two holding each other, brushing his thumb over your cheek, giving you soft back rubs, getting gentle back scratches from you, and loving every second. Sometimes he just talks to you, even when he knows you can't understand most of the words. It's shocking how much gets across by emotion and intonation alone. You squeeze him a little tighter when he's telling you a sad story, and you rub your forehead into his sternum when he laughs at something.

Pirate & Pin Cushion, part two (see JJ Masterlist) Jake Jensen x gn!ops!Reader

“Don’t worry, PC, they got you the good stuff. Heavy duty meds. Nothing but the best.” “PC?” you croak. Jake smirks warily. “For Pin Cushion. Eh, I’m test-driving it,” he shrugs. “You smile pretty.” Pink floods Jake’s cheeks. “Thank you?” Using all your might and concentration, your hand moves to his. “You got thick arms.”

Pirate & Pin Cushion, finale (see JJ Masterlist) Jake Jensen x gn!ops!Reader

“I’D KNOWN YOU FOR TWO WEEKS,” you explode, bolting out of your own seat. “Yeah,” Jake squeaks, “I know.” “Two weeks, and then you taped me saying ‘I love you?’” “But, like—“ his usually deep timbre pitches super high “…did you?” “Why would you just sit on that, Jake?!” “You weren’t exactly sober.” He shrugs.

Lease, one-shot (see SR One-Shots Masterlist) Steve Rogers x best friend!roommate!reader

“You don’t have to put photos,” Sam assures, “and you can stick with your first name only. I swear to you, man, this’ll be good for you. Get you out there more. Help me out here, Tagalong!” He turns to you for support. To be fair, you did quite literally tag along with your parents for years to the VA, and it stuck. Why it sticks as a grown-ass adult? You’ll never know. You just don’t mind Sam Wilson saying it because he means well and never uses it in public. “Uh, nooooo.” Sam’s face falls. “What?” You look at Steve and grimace, clicking your tongue. “He’s not ready for that,” you conclude. Steve jumps out of the chair, arms wide with victory. “THAT’S WHAT I’VE BEEN SAYING!”

No Promises, part one (explicit, darkfic) (see LH Masterlist) Lloyd Hansen x rival assassin!Reader

Easy pickings is what this guy is. All Lloyd has to do is make it look like the middle-aged, fake-tanned Pillsbury Doughboy down there had a heart attack…which might actually happen at the rate his target is shoveling antipasto down his gullet. Lloyd wipes his own mouth in disgust. The women have the right idea though, especially the one in the yellow bikini. His target looks like a desperate and lonely man, whether flashing around wealth or not, so leech away, ladies. Enjoy the free ride while it lasts.

No Promises, part two (explicit, darkfic) (see LH Masterlist) Lloyd Hansen x rival assassin!Reader

Lloyd keeps his steps forward into the room slow and casual, though his ire is obvious. He stops halfway across the carpet, unzips his leather jacket, and tosses it onto the foot of the bed. He seems surprised when you strut over without hesitation; he hasn’t handed over any weapons, but you haven’t asked for a reason. Lloyd’s reputation is cocky, commanding, and curious—in that order—so he won’t start speculating till it’s too late. Indeed, what possible harm could you inflict wearing this lil’ ol’ thing, huh?

[Main Masterlist; Light Masterlist; Ko-Fi]

[faerieroyal]

indecisive af so i’m polling my beloved moots and followers !!

— ❥ tagging some of my beloveds: @lovings4turn, @heliads, @spaceagebachelormann, @auxiliarydetective, @hiya-itsamber, @diorgirl444, @fairyofthehollow, @talkingturnedtoscreamss, @renqiisnce.

[penncilkid]

Got tagged by the bringer of amazing headcanons and provider of gorgeous, jaw dropping interpretations @mr-laveau to assign some ships songs. Did my best here and 100% picked songs I already associate with other ships and characters because listen, sharing is caring. Let's get into it!

[D.A.M.N. Polycule]

This is all the boys @ FL and simultaneously FL @ all the bots. All of them are grateful to be in each other's lives and wouldn't have it any other way. They can't imagine things being different. Lyrics that specifically stick it: "It feels so good to know ya"

[Sam/Darlin']

It's a tad upbeat from what I envision the vibe of this pair to have but the lyrics fit to me. I'm also a sucker for any song that's like "I'm scared to love you but I love you too much not to try" so here we are /pos

[Huxley/Damien]

If there's one thing you need to know about are the blueprint to me. Alright, this is my top ship, can't be beat. I like to think that this song is from Damien's perspective once they get together. In general, I think they bring out the best in each other and this song fits that.

[Avior/Starlight]

LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN (/LH)— Avior is one of my favorite characters. Starlight is one of my favorite listeners. Their storyline is one of my favs overall. That being said, I also love a little pain and this song cuts me deep. It feels like it sums up where they're both at mentally when it comes to the meridian stuff.

[Cutie/Geordi]

Much more from Cutie's perspective, but I feel like this captures their inner turmoil and how that conflicts with their love for Geordi. I love them and their story in general, and I think this song shows a certain will for their relationship to work out while still highlighting how Cutie has their own stuff to work through.

[Vincent/Lovely]

This specific version. The almost quiet feel to it compared to the original draws you in, pulls you close. Gendering aside, it's even more fitting post-Inversion.

[David/Angel]

Reminds me of quiet nights and healing as you go, which I feel is a major part of their relationship development. To me, this gives off "I want to be there for you and help you when the darkness clouds your mind". Again, always a sucker for.

[Vega/Camelopardalis]

This is an ultra specific pick based entirely off of the fic "And That’s Why We Broke Up" by @dominimoonbeam (your writing is >>>). I get that it's canon divergence, I get that this ship ain't for everyone, I get that I'm 99% certain it'd never happen in canon. That doesn't change the fact that this is 100% what I think of when I think about this pairing in the context of this fic.

[Elliott/Sunshine]

Beginning of the song reminds me of Elliott showing Sunshine dreams dreamscapes and stuff. That mixed with the friends to lovers vibes from the beginning of their relationship/dynamic and overall energy this song has made it fit for me.

[Alexis/Sam] (LET ME EXPLAIN /LH)

This ship isn't for me and I debated adding it at all, but this is one of the first songs I thought to add for this. I think it absolutely fits from Alexis' perspective and, if you view her as a more complex character rather than one dimension, it makes you hurt in a "It is what it is but damn" kind of way. Especially the line "strangers to friends, friends into lovers, then strangers again". Like come on, it fucks me up to imagine that pain after everything that transpired between her and Sam.

[Bonus Honorable Mentions]

Hit my audio limit whoops but Friendly Dark by Ollie MN for similar reasons as Die Trying assigned to Avior/Starlight. Also Our Love by Curtis Harding and Jazmine Sullivan from Arcane for Milo/Sweetheart (gendering aside). The girls that get it get it, and the girls that don't don't (/lh).

This was a lot of fun, even if I had to rack my brain a bit. I hope you enjoy my selection~ Tagging @thefablefoxart because I'm always in love with your musical suggestions (and don't know anyone else to tag /lh)

LIVE FAST, DIE YOUNG PT. 8

Word count: 6,011

Pairing: Austin Butler x oc

Summary: The days pass on, and Austin begins to lose more of his humanity, becoming his brothers dog. Doing all of their dirty work. In the middle of this, he is given the task to babysit, and while he babysits, he confesses his feelings to Aurilia (oc)

Warnings: cursing, threatening, fluff, knife, hostage, angst, murder, guns, blood, gore, smoking, all I can think of.

Tags: none.

Note: I didn’t want to make the confession romantic at all. But rather casually because confessing is usually just. “I like you, you like me, lets date.” PT. 7 PT. 9

MASTERLIST — SERIES

—

Al grabbed the head of his kid brother, his fist slamming against theirs. Blood splattered on the ground, and he fell to the ground. Austin tried pushing himself off the cement, spitting out a wad of blood. A sharp pain to his ribs made him jolt back, letting out a wheeze.

“You killed Curtis in public?!” Al shouted.

“You told me to take care of it…” Austin weakly looked at his brother. His whole body was shaking from pain. “I did as you asked. Where was this reaction when I first told-“ he was punched on the back of the head. Looking back up, “-where the fuck was this reaction when I first told you?” He continued.

“I didn’t know you beat the fuck out of him. Broke the shit out of his face. In a spa. Austin.” Al shot at him.

“Oh well damn you should get your info checked-“ another punch to his face, “-dipshit.” He added. He felt a pair of arms grab him tightly, he breathed in as they pushed his head down. Forcing him to stare at his own blood.

“You need to understand, that things have repercussions.” Al started. Austin kept staring down at the ground. He knew what was going to happen to him, and no, he wasn’t ready. “This, is one of them.”

Austin felt heat touching the upper part of his back. Feeling a burning sting to the area, he held still and bit his lower lip until it bled. However, this wasn’t helping him at all. He was whimpering from the pain, his hands balling up. Flexing his arms so much, he was ripping the skin of his palm open. Letting out a blood curdling scream now, the pain was gone. He felt something which he assumed was warm water being sprayed onto his back.

He wiped his face, spitting out even more blood. Keith who was standing behind his little brother watched the whole thing unfold. Austin now had the number 3 burned into his back, Keith only assumed this was to represent how he was the third brother.

Austin coughed out more wads of blood when the water stopped spraying on him. He fell over on his side, hissing at the pain. “C’mon Aussie,” Alphonse leaned down to stare at his brother, “face reality.” He began. “Face the truth. Nothing ever goes your way on this earth, in this life; You are nothing but a pawn and a vessel.” Al combed his fingers through his kid brother’s hair in a comforting sorry way.

“Vessel for what?” Austin could barely talk. His voice was beyond weak, raspy, he had croaked his words out.

“You’ll see.” Al smiled, letting out a low chuckle. “You’ll see.” He repeated in a whisper, watching his kid brother’s eyes fluttering to sleep.

Austin shot up, grabbing his temple and trying to recollect himself. “Mornin’ sunshine.” He heard a husky voice. He knew it was his brother. “Get dressed,” Keith threw him a bag of clothes, “you’re on guard duty.” He mumbled. Getting off the foldable chair, he slid his hands in his pockets to walk off.

Austin looked over at Nik, who was sitting on another chair. Lighting up a cigarette with a zippo lighter. He inhaled deeply, looking over at Austin. “Hey.” Austin said.

“Mornin’ sunshine.” Nik replied, a snarky smile on his face. “Heard you got branded.”

“Fuck off, you prick.” He brushed the comment off. Opening the bag to pull out a black short sleeve button up. The collar of the shirt was patterned with white barbed wires around it. As well as a pair of slacks.

“You don’t look like a dealer.” Nik looked at the clothes. Seeing Austin buttoning up four buttons then taking his jeans off to put on the slacks. He looks more of Al now. Nik thought to himself. He’s becoming more like him every day.

“Neither do you.” Austin zipped his fly up. They both walked out the basement.

Walking side by side down the sidewalk, Nik was smoking away. “We’re going back to the fifth block.” Nik started to explain. “Al wants us to eliminate someone.” He had a calm voice when he inhaled. Austin stayed silent, looking at Nik. He gave a nod of affirmation. He was listening, and he was listening well. “There’s a dealer who lives there. After that we go to the campus dorm, eliminate those folks too.”

“How does Al even know of these people?” Austin muttered.

“It’s Ricky,” he inhaled deeply, “Ricky’s a spotter remember? And he’s a Junior like us.” Exhaling. “He’s fuckin’ smart Aus. He’s a good stalker.” He smirked through the cigarette. “Anyways,” he stopped walking, “to get the job done in one day. You’ll take care of the dorm. I’ll take care of fifth block.”

“Fifth block is pretty dangerous, you sure?”

“I got a Colt.” He held his pocketed hand up to reassure his friend. “Don’t worry.” He kept smirking.

Austin looked to the side, then back at Nik. “Yeah. Got it.” And they both grabbed each other’s hands quickly, Nik passing on a paper to him. As they both walked their separate ways, Austin looked down at the piece of paper. Building Number 4… that’s Lia’s building.

As Austin walked alone with his right hand in his pocket, his left hand swaying. He was thinking to himself the whole time. Nik had became increasingly more compliant to Al’s orders. And Austin didn’t question it, he didn’t care for it. He knew that Nik was compliant because he didn’t want to be punished like his best friend.

Austin looked up at the night sky for a moment, his thoughts dwelling on Dove. He closed his eyes for a moment, opening them slowly as he exhaled heavily. His mind was empty, his emotions were clear.

—

Austin opened the door to the building. He reached into his pocket, feeling the grip of his Italian Switchblade. He held it tightly, breathing in. He looked at the paper once again, there was a list of names. “Jesus fuck.” He muttered, he shook himself. “Could go for a cigarette about now.” Looking up at the ceiling.

His eyes scanned it for any cameras. It was amazing, there were no cameras for the dorm. He looked at the paper again, it was small in his hands. Room four. Which was the first floor.

As he walked by a few of his colleagues who recognized him for his job. He glanced at the library. Room four was all the way at the back of the building. Which was perfect for him.

Turning the corner and walking to room four. He knocked on the door gently. Pressing his hand against the door, he was greeted with silence. Then a click, he pulled away. “Hi, how can I help you?” It was a boy shorter than he. But they wore some sweats and a hoodie, a casual outfit.

“You Jeffery?” Austin asked.

“Yeah.” He nodded, confused. Austin glanced to his right, making sure nobody were to see.

He looked back at Jeffery. “Well, I have a message.” Without any hesitation he switched the blade open as he pulled it out, he felt the blade pierce through the layer of clothes, then break the layers skin open, finally entering the gut of his victim.

Jeffery coughed, looking up Austin. Who was standing directly in front of him. Pushing him onto the ground, Austin kicked the door behind him shut. Grabbing rope out of his pockets, he wrapped it around Jeffery’s neck.

He could hear his rival gagging and coughing. Struggling to breathe, his stomach convulsed, as the blood stain in his hoodie grew bigger. Austin stared into his eyes quietly, humming to himself to keep his mind blank.

As he held the rope tight, Austin stabbed his knife into the throat of Jeffery. Flinching away so none of the splatters would get on him. Austin pulled back, dragging the rope away. “Business is business.” He apologized. Getting off of him, he turned to walk to the door. Pulling out a pair of black gloves, he opened it quietly. Not even glancing back at the corpse before leaving.

Going to the next room it was the same result. The body dropped dead. Then the next room. The next room. It was room after room for Austin. He was growing tired of what he was doing. He just wanted to burn the building down if he could.

He finally went to the last floor. The sixth floor which was Aurilia’s. Room 106 and room 115. He read to himself. He walked down the hall, holding his knife in his pocket. With a blood soaked handkerchief in his other pocket.

Knocking on the door, they opened it. Without any hesitation he stabbed his knife through their gut, they dropped, and he slit their throat. Closing the door quickly after. He made quick work of the other one.

Looking at the door of Aurilia’s, he blankly stared at it for a moment, lowering his head in shame. He exited the dorm, breathing in.

—

For the next few days. Al had Nik and Austin carry out the same tasks over and over again. Going from block to block and killing.

Austin was slowly changing, and Nik had caught onto it. Austin, who would typically rebel against his eldest brother seemed to take every kill well. In fact, he was getting better with each victim. In spite of Dove being a messy kill. His latest victim, a guy he didn’t know. He bled out from the throat, it was cleaner than just strangling one victim dead.

Nik hadn’t changed his style. The only thing about him was he added a suppressor onto his .45, which caused it to be quieter. Austin had watched him kill, he would wait for the door of the victim to open. Then calmly point the gun to said victim, pull back on the trigger and they’d drop just like that.

Austin still used his switchblade. He could feel everything this way, and for some reason, he seemed to enjoy it. But now, Al had given him a suppressed Bul SAS II .45, and Austin didn’t use it much.

He used it sure, but not as much as he could’ve. Due to his activities, Austin started wearing a leather jacket instead of using his pockets constantly. He kept his pistol in the pocket of his leather jacket. The SAS II was a Glock style pistol, so it was easy to fit in. If Austin had to use his silencer, he’d take it out from the inside of his pocket and quickly screw it on.

Austin was sitting on the floor of the bar with his legs crossed. He was on babysitting duty. Joe’s baby niece had came by, and he needed a watcher. Al told Joe, Austin would do it. He didn’t mind this at all, he wanted a break from the chaos.

Sitting in his lap was the almost two year old niece. She was holding Austin’s finger, looking at how huge his hands seemed to be. Austin watched her with a blank face, balling his hands into a tight fist for her. She smacked his hand lightly, causing him to open then close, as if it was pulsing. Another smack, open then close.

He heard the chime of the bar and he looked up, seeing Nik entering. Nik was holding a bag, a paper fast food bag, and he knew immediately that it was wads of cash inside. Nik who saw Austin smiled through the cigarette. He approached Austin, then paused when he noticed the girl. “Oh- shoot.” He grabbed the cigarette in his mouth, inhaling once more before running to the ash tray to light it out. He threw the cigarette in the trashcan when he finished, then ran back to his friend.

He put the paper bag onto the table that Austin was sitting by. Crouching down and scooping up Joe’s niece off his lap. “What’s up, Sara!” He exclaimed, followed with excited laughter. “Didn’t know you’d be here today,” he had the brightest smile on his face, “here.” He reached into his pocket and grabbed 100 bucks. “For you.” He folded the buck several times to fit in her small hand. Then plopped her down on Austin’s lap.

“Hello to you too.” Austin greeted.

“Sorry bruv,” Nik shrugged, “she reminds me of my little sister is all.” He chuckled. “Cya tonight?”

“Yeah, cya.” And with that, Austin was left alone with Sara again. Austin looked over at the backpack that Joe had given him, which had everything for Sara. He reached into the bag and pulled out a bag of diced apples.

He looked down at Sara quietly. Seeing how her hair was tied up in two pig tails, she wore a magenta shirt and some black shorts. He took out her bib from the backpack and gently put it on her neck. Ripping the bag of apples open, he took one out. “Alright Sara, you hungry?” He asked with a soft tone. A response of babbles, seeing him hold out his hand with the diced apples. She took one of them and brought it to her mouth. “Oh shi- shoot,” he cut himself off, “thought I’d have to feed you…” he smirked.

Sara was relatively quiet. But of course, she seemed to love the diced apple. He looked at the food. “What is this… Honey Crisp?” He guessed, biting one of them. “Oh it is-“ he was surprised with the sweetness of it. “Gee Sara, you got good taste.” He planted a gentle kiss on her head as she took another diced apple, eating it quietly. “Honey crisps are good-“

“Look at you.” A husky tone broke his banter with Sara. He could see dirty boots in front of him, and looking up, he was greeted with Keith. “Talking to a baby now huh.”

“Toddler.” He corrected.

Keith perked up a brow but shook his head, looking at the bar then at his little brother. “I’m goin out, need anything?”

“No.” He rejected.

“It’s almost five. You ought to get going.” Keith flicked his head to the clock, 4:30 it read. Austin raised his brows, then looked back to see Keith already out the door.

“Alright darlin’ we gotta get goin’,” Austin had an apologetic tone, “don’t wanna take these apples away but I got a date.” He explained, throwing the diced apples into the bag. He scooped Sara up in his arms, balancing her on his hip. He leaned down and swung the backpack over his shoulder. Striding out of the bar quickly, he dipped his head goodbye to Joe.

“Good luck with her!” He called.

Austin put her down on the sidewalk. It was pretty empty so he figured it was safe for her. Holding her hand. “Can you walk?” He asked her. She took a step forward with him as his whole back was hunched over.

This is when I wish I was 5’1” instead of 6’1” this is gonna kill the shit out of my back. He rambled in his head. But none the less, he walked with her by his side. Until he had enough and scooped her off the floor with ease. He put her on his shoulders, feeling her small hands tug on his hair. He kept one hand on her leg and the other holding the strap of his backpack.

As he walked he could see curious eyes wander over to him. Something he hated but something he was use to.

—

Aurilia looked up from her book, she heard the door of the shop open. Her eyes widened when she saw Austin with a toddler. The hell… she watched him walk over to her. He threw the backpack off him and onto the other side of the table, taking Sara off his shoulders.

He sat down beside Aurilia and scooted the chair back to give himself more room so Sara could sit on his thigh. He bounced his thigh off the ground in a way of rocking her, his hands around her small body to keep her steady. “Hello to you too.” He looked at Aurilia.

“Hi,” she blinked, amazed, “what’s up with the kid?”

“Babysitting duty.” He replied. Aurilia smiled, as she watched him hunch over a bit to talk to the little girl. He looks cute. “Sara,” he began, “this is my good friend, Lia.” He turned to face Lia. “Can you say hi?” He cooed.

Aurilia couldn’t wipe the smile off her face. Austin was gentle, he always was around Aurillia. But she never heard him being this gentle to anyone. She assumed he hated children, but she admitted to herself she was wrong.

He took the small hand of Sara’s to wave it at Aurilia. “Hi Sara,” she played along and took Sara’s hand in her three fingers to shake it. Looking back at Austin who had a wide smile on his face.

He looked at Aurilia then. “Cute huh?”

“Yeah, she’s cute.” She admitted. “I didn’t know you like kids.” She looked at his eyes, seeing how big his eyebags had gotten.

“Yeah, I want kids in the future.” He admitted. “Daughters specifically.”

“Why?” She asked, genuine curiosity striking her.

“I have two brothers.” He scoffed, his hand playing with Sara’s. “My whole life- even now. It’s been my brothers- of course our mother too. But, when she died. It was just them.” He shook his head, looking down at Sara to watch her. “It’d be nice to have girls, experience something different. If that makes sense.”

“Yeah.” She nodded to his words.

“But to get that. I need a woman in my life.” He retorted. He turned Sara around so she could face him, seeing her stretch her hands out to his face. He craned his head down for her, and she cupped his face in her tiny hands.

As Aurilia watched the two. She could see Austin’s eyes soften when looking down at her. A gentle smile was on her face. Sara rubbed the stubble that was growing on his face due to his sleepless nights. Sara pulled his face down, popping a gentle kiss above his lips. She squealed when she was done, hiding her face from him. Aurilia raised her brows, bobbing her head to what she saw. “Bold bold kid.” She laughed to herself, glancing at her book. “Very bold.” She smiled, looking back at Austin. Good taste in men too. She added in her head.

“Yeah, very bold.” He chuckled lowly. She reached up again, and he understood. Picking her up, and holding her close to his chest. She wrapped her little arms around his neck, resting her cheek on his broad shoulder.

Aurilia watched him quietly, thinking about what he had previously said. She loved Austin, she had came to that realization a long time ago.

He was a night runner, but night runners… they’re drug dealers as well. She had known that from when they got the fat from the liposuction clinic. The pay he got. Not to mention the suitcases, taking his brothers place and going to parties. Disappearing to the bathroom with said suitcases and coming out without them. And the bar his brothers own? With that investment they could launder money.

It clicked for Aurilia awhile ago. Long ago. When she had laid on his chest and probed at him, and he’d brush it off, or when he’d go to her when he had just gotten into a fight, the liposuction clinic too. She knew of him.

In spite of that, she loved him. He was flawed, but he was trying. When he’d come over to her dorm and lay beside her, holding her in his arms. Humming to not just himself but as well as her. The way he stared at her, so focused and intrigued with her. Not just that but he was protective over her, he vouched his loyalty to her. To always remain by her side until the end of time, even if she hadn’t loved him.

But, she did. And she was willing to spend the rest of her days with him. “Aren’t I a woman?” She piped up, breaking away from her thoughts.

“Hm?” His head shot at her direction.

“You said you have no woman. I am a woman.” She recalled. “I mean last time I checked I was.” She tilted her head, her hand going into her hair to massage the back of her scalp.

He blinked cluelessly as her. Licking his lower lip because of how much he was thinking. His eyes looked her up and down, then at her eyes. “Yeah.”

“So?”

“The fu- I mean,” shaking his head, “what’re you tryna say. You’d have my child?”

“I would be willing.” She admitted boldly. He stared at her, speechless.

“You mean that?” He scooted closer to her.

“Yes.” She didn’t back down. “If we work out like how we’ve been working out.” She smiled slyly.

He gulped down, swallowing his words. Looking away from her for a moment, he was thinking to himself. He had the money. If he and Aurilia could work, he could run away with her. Far away. Run from this hell hole that his brothers created for him. The stupid drug empire. The dirty work he had to do for them. A dog. But they were both in college. If she were to carry his child. It’d get in the way. But… his money. He probably had racked up over a million dollars because of the dirty work he did.

He looked back at her. “Us?” He emphasized.

“I mean c’mon Austin, we both aren’t good at hiding our feelings around each other.” She rolled her eyes at him, closing her book to put it away. “We’d be lying if we said we didn’t feel something right?” She asked, tilting her head his direction. He nodded without thinking. “So… y’know…” she hushed down.

He looked around, his mind was made up. If he could spend the rest of his life with her. He would. Scooting closer to her, he glanced at Sara. She was sleeping soundly on his shoulder. Lowering his head and hushing his tone down. “I have money.” He revealed to her. She lowered her head, their eyes locking. “Tons… racks and racks and racks.” He continued on. “My brother- and my mothers inheritance y’know all that.” He made up a lie.

“Yeah.” She was following along.

“We could run away.” He suggested. She kept looking at his gray eyes. “If…” tilting his head lower, “if you do get pregnant. We go through with this. I could get the money and we could fly away. To paris or something.”

“Paris?” She mocked.

“C’mon Lia, or Utah or something- somewhere pretty.” He muttered. “Live in the countryside, us, a family.” He rasped out his words. He himself couldn’t believe what he was saying. Considering what he was taught not even a month ago. “Do you want that?” He squinted his eyes, worry and genuineness slipping into his tone.

“Yes.” She answered a-matter-of-factly.

“If I get you pregnant. You’ll be with me for the rest of your life. Do you want that?”

“Austin-“ Aurilia couldn’t hide her annoyance, she looked away for a moment then back at him, “-yes, okay? For the last time. Yes.” She was positive. “Seeing you with Sara makes me realize what I want. Okay? So don’t worry.”

“It’s just- hard processing this since you never struck me for the type to want this. It seems out of character.” He choked out his words.

“Well yeah but, you and I always sleep together. Almost every night you come over to sleep with me. I already know what I am to you. I’m not dumb Tin Head, I observe you.” She leaned closer to him until they could both feel their breath against each others lips. “Are you in or are you out?” She challenged.

He stared at her brown eyes for a moment. “In.” He nodded.

“Guess you’re my boyfriend then.” She couldn’t hide her childish smile. Pulling away from him when she was done. He blinked his eyes to process what had just happened, his hand patting Sara’s back.

He bit his lip, trying his best to hide his smile as he was looking at the wall. He felt as if he had just won at life for some reason. Even in spite of his brothers cruel ways, he could admit. He felt on top of the world for once in his life.

After an hour or so. Sara had woken up from her nap. Austin held her the whole time with one arm. He put Sara down on the ground of the coffee shop when she woke up, her hand holding his finger. “Careful Sara,” he hummed, “don’t be irrational now.”

Aurilia who had been watching. Scrunched up her face. “Austin I don’t think she knows what irrational even means.”

“Callin’ ‘er dumb?” His Italian New Yorker accent suddenly kicked in.

“No-“ she shook her head, “-y’know she’s like what-? One?”

“Almost two.” He corrected.

“Same thing Aus!” She rolled her eyes, looking at her book. He smiled at her frustration, looking back at Sara who was trying to walk over to the glass counter that had a cookie in it. He got up quickly and walked over to her, putting his hand on her head to hold her up.

Mr. Reed walked out to greet the two of them. He looked over the counter, seeing the little girl. Austin who was hunched behind her stood straight, smiling at Mr. Reed. “Who’s this?”

“Sara, my friend’s niece. I’m babysitting for him.” He explained. Sara wobbled a bit, grabbing hold of Austin’s leg to balance herself. She gargled out some spit, pointing to the cookie.

Mr. Reed observed the young girl. Looking at Austin who picked her up. “You can’t have that Sara.” He cooed at her, placing a gentle kiss on her temple. Using the hem of his tank top to wipe her lips. She babbled on, gently patting Austin’s shoulder and pointing to it. “No sweetheart, you’re too little.” He refused.

“She’s stubborn,” Mr. Reed commented, “bit like you.”

“Oh hush up.” Austin brushed Mr. Reed off. He turned around to walk back to Aurilia, listening to Sara babble on and on. “I know Sara but cookies aren’t good for ya.” He grabbed the backpack.

Aurilia put her book away, throwing her backpack over her shoulder. She helped Austin put his on as well. She grabbed the door and held it open for the both of them, listening to Sara complain about god knows.

Austin carried Sara with one hand, while his other was intertwined with Aurilia’s. He was humming to himself as they walked to the park. Sara had her hands on Austin’s chest, looking around like a lost puppy to take in her surroundings.

She looked at Austin happily, squealing. She wiped her lips on his stubble then hid her face in the crook of his neck. Hugging him excitedly. “Yes, I love you too, Sara.” He pecked her head gently. She looked at him with a wide goofy smile on her face. Pressing her cheek on his rough face, her hands balling up against his chest.

“She’s crazy over you.” Aurilia teased him, swinging their hands.

“Yeah yeah whatever. It’s a babysitting job.” He murmured shyly.

—

Sara had to return to Joe. And Aurilia was with them still. He had put Sara down on the ground, letting her make her way to Joe. “Thanks for watching her.” Joe smiled as Austin approached him. Joe felt his niece hugging his leg.

“Yeah no issue.” Austin smiled, nodding his head. “I needed a break anyways.” There was a low chuckle heaving from his chest. Sara looked at Austin, hugging his leg. Austin crouched down and looked at Sara, his hand patting the back of her head. “Cya around.” He smiled gently, and she gave him another hug as well. Then made her way back to Joe, who scooped her up in his arms.

“Say bye to Aussie.” Joe waved her hand at Austin, walking out of the bar after so he could meet his sister outside.

Austin turned to Aurilia, sighing. “Thanks for coming, doll.” He smiled, his eyes clearly softening. “I should drop you off.” Reaching for her hand, she held his index finger.

“I’m alright, I’ll walk home.” She stepped a bit closer to him. His head craned down to her, to where she looked up at him a bit. “Plus,” she looked over his shoulder, “Nik’s waiting.”

Austin looked back at Nik. Seeing him popping in a cigarette and lighting it. “He can wait.” Austin wanted to forget about his oncoming job.

“Nono, I’m okay.” She assured. “I’ll see you later right?”

“Yeah, course.” He promised. Without hesitation, she tip toed and briefly pressed her lips against his. Nik watched in the background, his eyes wide from shock. He watched as Austin tilted his head to the right, hers to the left, and Austin leaned in for more. But she pulled away, their noses brushing against each other.

Wrapping her arms around his neck to hold him close to her. He hid his head in the crook of her neck, taking in her scent. Strawberries. He stood still, not bothering to move his arms to take her in close. He just wanted to take her warmth in. But, he gave in to his instincts. His arms curled around her waist, pulling her as close as he could. He felt her chest against his, and he swayed his body a bit as he took her in his arms.

After 30 seconds of comfortable silence. Aurilia was the first to speak. “I love you.” She breathed into his ear.

Pulling away from him a bit, she put her hands on his shoulder. Their foreheads against each other. “I love you too, Lia.” He swore. He meant it, with everything in him. With whatever humanity he had left in him. He meant it. He loved her. He loved this woman. He loved Aurilia. “I love you.” He repeated.

“I love you too,” she cupped his cheek to kiss him lightly, “cya later tonight.” Brushing her hand across his lips, he nodded to her words.

“Yeah, cya tonight, love.” He worked up a smile. Pulling away from him fully. She blinked her eyes as if she had just remembered something, she looked at Nik.

“Bye Nik.” She waved at him.

“Bye dollface.” Nik smiled at her, watching her leave. It finally hit Austin as to what he had just done in front of Nik, at the bar. Where his brothers were.

Austin slowly turned to face Nik, swallowing his nervousness. He cleared his throat. “You’re fuckin’ stupid, Aus.” Nik said without a moments notice. “Fuckin’ dumb. What the fuck are you thinking getting involved with a woman?” He yelled in a whisper.

“I love her okay?” He had a defensive tone. “And she loves me. So.”

“So? Bitch if your brothers find out you, two are fucked!” Nik couldn’t believe how dumb Austin was. “So much for not getting involved.” He punched his best friends shoulder.

“Shut up..” Austin grumbled. Nik walked towards the basement with Austin following behind, opening the door then walking down the steps.

Al looked up at both of them. Keith was sitting behind and eating a PB&J sandwich. “There are my boys.” Al smiled. They both stood in front of him, and he breathed in. “Go out there and cause some fights.”

“What?”

“You heard me. Go out there and cause some fights. Make us known.” He insisted. “Ricky, Brent, Adrian, Charlie, Kurt, and Tyler are all dealing right now. So you two go spread a message in the neighboring territories…” he trailed off. “…actually no. Make yourselves heard.” He smiled. “Make them know fear. Show them fear. Scare them so bad. It changes them.”

—

Austin and Nik saw a dealer, he was just standing in one spot, pacing around. Just like a dealer. He paused when he saw the pair approaching him. “What can I do for-“ Austin punched the dealer across the face, knocking him down.

Grabbing his SAS II from his leather jacket pocket. He held it to the dealers face. “Give me your ID.” He ordered. A wallet was handed to him, Austin opened it. “I recognize you from my campus,” he started, looking at the name, “Richard bitch.” He read the first name. “Turn around and keep your hands in the air, Richy.”

Richard turned around, his hands in the air. He was wearing a gray baggy unzipped jacket, with jeans that didn’t fit him. “Why do you deal.” Austin immediately asked.

“W- w- what?” Richard sputtered.

“Why do you deal.” Austin had a blank and monotone voice.

“Be- because-“

“Get your fuckin’ shit together before I blow your head off, Richy.” Austin cut him off not even mid-sentence. “Why do you deal?”

“Extra cash!” He sounded like he was sobbing already. His hands were shaking.

“You had a choice to join?”

“Yes.” Richard nodded his head. “I chose to join- and- and- and become a dealer.” He stammered. “For- for Darren Cooper.”

“You chose to join this life of shit. Yet, when confronted you cower away like a weak beaten old dog?” Austin asked.

“Y- yes!” He bobbed his head. Richy realized how stupid he was.

This boiled Austin’s blood for some reason. “You had a perfectly good life and chose to ruin it for extra cash? You weren’t grateful with what you had? What you had wasn’t enough?” His voice was rising the more he spoke. Richy was silent, shaking. “Do I have to repeat myself?” He slammed the nose of his pistol on Richy’s head.

He flinched forward, shaking his head no. “Yes, yes you’re right.”

Austin chuckled to himself. Shaking his head from disappointment. “Wanna know something about me?”

“Wh- what?” Richy looked back at Austin.

“I was forced into this life. My older brothers, people I looked up to. My own family. They forced me into this. Into dealing. Into doing this. They changed me into becoming this.” He smiled at Richy. “If I had a life like yours… I would never have chosen this life…” looking at the night sky then back at Richard in the eyes. “But you chose this life right?”

“Yes. Yes I chose it!” Richard assured Austin.

“So you should’ve came more prepared right?”

“Yes!” He bobbed his head.

“I see…” Austin looked at Nik with a smirk then back at Richard, “don’t forget my name.”

“Huh-?”

“Austin Butler.” He pulled back on the trigger, crimson splattered on the ground in front of Richard. He fell face flat on the ground. Nik flinched, surprised from what he saw.

Nik was breathing heavily, looking at the bleeding dead body and at Austin who just blankly stared.

—

Austin shut the door behind him quietly. His eyes glancing over at Steph who had her legs in the air, sleeping soundly. He walked over to Aurilia’s bed. She glanced back at him. Like usual, she had waited up for him.

Scooting closer to the wall to make room for him. He took his tank top off, throwing it at the edge of the bed. He crawled into Aurilia’s bed, laying flat on his back for her so she could roll around to face him. She had her head on his warm chest, placing a soft kiss on it. “Good day at work?” She whispered to him.

“Yeah.” Draping his arm around her hips to caress them.

She looked at him sweetly. Propping herself up with her elbow. She kissed his lips gently, he returned the kiss. “Goodnight.”

“Goodnight baby.” He smiled.

How did Sunshine hear about her parents dying and how did she react?

I introduce you all to Sunshine and immediately get sent the saddest ask of all time?! 🥲😭🤧

tw: parental death, car accidents, grief

meet Sunshine

Sunshine Finding Out About Her Parents

Sunshine finds out about her parents’ death the same way the rest of the Curtis’ family does; a knock on their front door in the middle of the night. Darry is the one who answers the door while Soda, Pony, and Sunny all poke their heads out of their rooms to see what’s wrong. The policeman is the one who tells Darry, trying to keep himself upright against the doorframe, while his siblings slowly come into the living room trying to understand what’s going on. Eventually they’re all led to the couch while the officer explains the situation again before he leaves. The four of them sitting in the dimly light living room, unsure of what to say or what is going to happen, but knowing that they’re all each other, have left. 

Sunshine can’t sleep alone for weeks. She starts getting anxiety attacks when it gets dark and she can’t stand to be in a room without a light source. She keeps going to Darry’s room and can only sleep if he’s with her. They’ve always been close ever since she was a baby and now he’s the closest thing she has to her dad. Darry keeps the door to his room cracked and leaves the hall light on. 

Sunshine hates when people knock on the front door. Thankfully it doesn’t happen often since Darry leaves it unlocked and the Gang just lets themselves in, but there have been a few times when Two Bit or Dally jokingly knocked on the front door with both fists before slamming it open with their usual burst of energy and Sunny’s face was completely pale and she had to go sit down somewhere else.

She doesn’t cry at the funeral even when Ponyboy and Sodapop do. She just holds onto Soda and Darry’s hands and waits for the service to be over. When they get home she locks herself in her bedroom and finally cries. She doesn’t want her brothers to worry about her, she knows they’re all sad enough already. When she comes out later she tries to hide the red in her eyes and her brothers are kind enough to not say anything about it. 

When Ponyboy starts getting his nightmares she’s incredibly freaked out and loses a lot of sleep because not even sleep is safe apparently. She doesn’t want Ponyboy to get worse, she knows Darry is taking on too much already, and Soda is playing peacemaker. This is when she starts taking care of the house and making sure it’s as perfect as can be to help everyone feel better. 

There was a day when the brothers couldn’t find Sunshine and they began to panic. She wasn’t in Darry’s room or her own, she wasn’t on the porch, and they all knew that Sunny wouldn’t leave the house without telling one of them first. They searched and searched before Soda noticed that the door to their parents’ room was slightly ajar. There had been an unspoken rule that no one was supposed to go in there, not yet, but there was Sunny curled up in the middle of their bed fast asleep. 

There’s a headcanon that I’ve seen a lot of fans share about the Curtis Brothers being scared of getting into cars or driving in general and I share that 100%. I don’t think there’s a way that they wouldn’t on some level carry a deep fear or at least anxiety of vehicles. For Sunshine it’s not so much being in a car as it is seeing her brothers or the gang into a car. She cannot stand the thought of them all getting into one without her and leaving her behind. Even months after the accident she gets deep pits of anxiety in her stomach. 

The first time they laugh together since their parents’ death is two weeks after the funeral. Sunshine helped Darry make breakfast, tired bags under both of their eyes, and everyone was sitting at the table. Sunny can’t remember what was said, but it made Soda choke on his chocolate milk and in a blink of an eye it was coming out of his nose. They all started at the mess on the table and on his shirt before the silence broke and laughter filled the Curtis home for the first time in far too long.

We'd See the World Through Devil's Eyes https://ift.tt/m7Cibg8 by Taxi_Cab_To_Slowtown Peter dropped the case file down on the table in front of Jason.
