Henlo :) okay so um hcs for the gang with a reader who comes from a family thats rlly rocky, so they dont rlly experience love so when they get it its confusing for them? Like experiencing cuddles for the first time?
Tumblr media
A/N: Thanks for requesting this! I’m super sorry for the delay, things got kind of hectic around here- hope you enjoy these!
Tumblr media
DARRY CURTIS
Honestly? The Curtis brothers are probably the only ones here that have experience with familial affections and just affections in general?
Darry’s grown up with two parents who love him and is pretty used to the affections that come from that
When he meets you? Who doesn’t have that? Who’s never had that with their parents?
He takes it slow, he’s careful in how he holds you, not wanting to make you uncomfortable and he tells you that he loves you
Gives you all the compliments, asks you about your day and how you feel about different things, he really just does anything he can so that you know that he cares about you
Not exactly the best with his words like Ponyboy is but he knows that it’s important for you to hear that someone cares and appreciates you
SODAPOP CURTIS
Sodapop is very perceptive and already sort of knows what’s wrong when you sort of tense up when he tries to hug you or throw his arm around your shoulders 
He’s a very tactile person, he likes to be touching you, so if you’re not used to being touched or don’t exactly like being touched, I’d talk to him about
Sodapop won’t care, he doesn’t mind either way and would be happy to work towards a happy medium for the both of you
If you’re not used to being hugged and stuff? Sodapop kind of dials in his affections, being a little gentler with you
Hugs, cuddles, holding hands, he’s always going to give you the option to pull away from him
He doesn’t want to overwhelm you, he really just wants to show you that he loves you and if being held all the time doesn’t make you feel loved, that’s no problem, the two of you can work something else out!     
PONYBOY CURTIS
Ponyboy isn’t a very touchy person? At least my version of Ponyboy isn’t, so tensing up during cuddles and stuff doesn’t really register with him at first until you say something
Pony’s big thing is words if you couldn’t tell- I mean, kiddo literally wrote a whole book and gave it to a professor
So hearing you kind of talk down about yourself? Leftover habits from being told that your opinions don’t matter? That kind of sets him off
Expect tons of compliments and gentle reassurances from Ponyboy, all sweet and genuine remarks
He loves you, he loves hearing your thoughts and your parents were crazy for telling you that you didn’t matter
You do matter, and Ponyboy’s gonna make sure you know that <3
DALLAS WINSTON
My version of Dallas had a rough homelife back when he was in New York, his dad was a deadbeat, mom died when he was younger-
So for you to come from a rocky home and not be used to affection and kind words? You and Dal are kinda the same
He doesn’t entirely know how to show you that love he has for you?
Like it’s not second nature to just take your hand or kiss you before he leaves, y’know what I mean?
So like, if you guys were a seesaw of uncertainty about affection, I don’t know if seesaws are just an American thing but I hope not cause you guys would seriously be missing out, the seesaw would be perfectly balanced in the middle, completely flat
Over time though, the two of you get a bit better, relaxing into each other and showing each other a little more love! It just took you a little bit of time 
JOHNNY CADE
Yeahhhhh so Johnny has a pretty rough homelife too so I have a feeling the two of you are in the same boat here
The whole not knowing how important you are, uncomfortable during physical affections, yadda yadda yadda, you guys know what I’m talking about
I think the relationship you have going with each other is good though! It’s good for both of you!  
Johnny gives those vibes that he’d definitely be the hype man for everyone else while putting himself down
So he’d shower you in all the compliments, in all the pretty words and everything you could ever ask for, paired with a few gentle kisses pressed to your cheeks
Every aspect of this relationship would be so calm and laid-back, you’d be so good for each other because you’d finally be able to show each other what real love should be <3  
TWO-BIT MATHEWS
Okay so I take back what I said about the Curtis bros, Two-Bit’s mom definitely loved him like a mother should and I can’t believe I overlooked that- 
She works two jobs for her kids and I can’t believe that I forgot how hard she works for them
He’s also very touchy? Like Sodapop, he likes to be touching you so he’s kind of taken aback when he realizes how confused you are by it
He’s like ??? and pulls away very slowly, looking at you and trying to figure out what’s going on in your head
And I swear, if you say one thing bad about yourself, no matter what it is, Two-Bit is immediately correcting you, telling you you’re perfect and that he cares in his own Two-Bit way
“Whaddaya mean you don’t care? I wanna know what you wanna do, doll. Where do you wanna go to dinner?”
STEVE RANDLE
Steve, another very touchy boy, does his best to slowly ease into physical affections with you
He’s not trying to make you uncomfortable or overwhelmed, he just really wants to hold your hand when you’re walking around the drive-in together
I suggest having a conversation with him about your less than satisfying homelife? Steve’s got his own shitty household, and I think he’d be pretty understanding 
He gets a little sad when you talk about how you think you don’t matter? It hurts him to think that you don’t think you’re important
Steve looks at you like you’re his whole world, he just can’t believe that someone could tell you that you’re not good enough
Gentle reminders that you’re enough, you’re more than enough and that he loves you are given in the form of extra dates, extra compliments and extra loving!  
TIM SHEPARD
The reason Tim is so forward with his affections and compliments is because he stops being able to function the second those nice things turn back on him-
So yeah! Both of you don’t really know what to do with gentle affection because you both had rocky homelives
But! You’re working on it, both of you, you’re slowly relaxing into each other, slowly realizing that this is what love really is and this is how it’s shown
And as for your self-worth? Tim makes sure you really know he cares about your opinions
He’ll ask what you’re doing, what you want to do and what you don’t want to do, what you like about this and what you don’t like about that
It’s not overly obvious? But his questions are definitely him trying to see what you want and trying to do whatever you want so you can the chance to be heard 
CURLY SHEPARD
Curly Shepard had a messed up childhood no matter what sort of background you headcanon him to have so I think he’d understand where you’re coming from
Hesitancy to be wrapped in a hug or to have someone hold onto your hand?
Confusion when you’re given compliments or trusted to make decisions for something?
Curly understands what you’re going through, he’s got the same thing going on himself sweetheart <3
Together though, I think the two of you would be really really good, you’d do a lot of good things for each other and sort of build each other back up
By the way, it’s hard to not feel special when you’re with Curly because he’s always calling you by little nicknames and giving you what he’s got, saying sweet things and all that good stuff <3

Hi! I saw on one of your posts of 2019 Mistoffelees being created by Macavity by @theaternut who deleted their blog sadly and I saw the Behind Closed Doors trailer and was wondering if you could draw the interaction between the two. I love the story line and needed more. (I tried to look for the trailer again but couldn't find it 😔)
I'm so sorry this took so long to answer, I've been quite busy with uni work and things slip my mind, my apologies. I hope you see this because I want to help.
I was really sad to see them gone but I did reblog a song list and prologue for Behind Closed Doors
