Yo, I am legit so scared of Hinton, straight up 💀

That woman does not give a fuuuuck.

If for some reason I met her irl and wanted her to sign my copy of The Outsiders I don’t think I could do it. I’d be too scared to even ask her. “She’d be like, you’re a grown ass bitch why tf are you here?”

She’d be able to smell the fangirl in me from a mile away. She’d glare at me, dead in the eyes, and say “You write fanfiction about my boys, don’t you?” Then she’d sniff the air and go, “Yeah, you’re a Johnny girl. Get out of my sight you nasty whore. Canonically he’s fucking 16 and DEAD.”

YO S.E. HINTON IS SO FUNNY

I found this photo after Ponyboy took it, thanks pony we will tease Johnny about this forever

[katie-1-2]

I made some pixel art sprites of the gang

[jtophat]

Dally‘s looking like the main protagonist in one of those sitcoms about being the middle kid in a too big family

Darry wanting a nice family photo with all the boys so he drags them to the crappy photo studio inside the department store. This was the only usable photo they got and it only happened because he promised Dairy Queen if they would all just stop messing around and look at the camera

“Do I look like a farm boy to you?”

yes Pony. You’re wearing a flannel shirt and jeans, you’re chewing on a piece of grass and already have a slightly farm-ish accent. As opposed to Johnny, whose hair is very obviously slicked back, wearing a dark shirt and jean jacket, and has a pretty obvious scar on his face.

so, yes Pony. YOU DO LOOK LIKE A FCKING FARM BOY

thank you for coming to my ted talk.

Two-Bit is the type of guy to get deep while blasted about the most random stupid shit 😭 ﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌﹌ Dally: Man, I gotta take a leak bad-

Two: You ever think about that? I mean... just really sit with it? The fact that everyone does it? Everyone that’s ever lived long enough has pissed at least once in their lifetime. You know a lot of times even giving birth, women piss. Then even animals do it, too. All around the globe there are probably hundreds, nay, thousands of people pissing right this minute, no, right this second. Billions upon billions of living creatures that have ever walked, crawled, or slithered across the Earth have pissed. Billions of streams all flowing together now & since the beginning of time to form a great expanse of golden, glistening piss.

Dally: WOAH.

[curtis-brothers-hug]

Two-Bit: “did it ever occur to you that maybe Ponyboy likes Curly?”

Soda: “Ponyboy likes Curly’s what?”

Two-Bit: “No, I mean Ponyboy likes him, likes him. Like, is attracted to him.”

Soda: “Who’s the ‘him’ in that sentence?”

Two-Bit: “Curly. Ponyboy likes Curly.”

Soda: “………him?”

[two-entire-bits]

Two-Bit mentions that he stands outside of Marcia's house and calls up to her window to get her attention instead of just knocking on her door, and Ponyboy teasingly calls them Romeo and Juliet. Two-Bit has no clue who they are so he goes to the library for like, the first time ever, finds the play, and eventually figures out why Ponyboy referenced it. So the next time he goes to Marcia's window, he calls out "it is my lady, o, it is my love!" and Marcia is smitten.

johnny hcssshhhh

-he gets reaaalllly bad headaches like all the time and has some sort of ibuprofen or medication on him because of it

-someone in the gang probably also steals it for him when he needs it cuz yk medicine is expensive sometimesz!!!

-he used to be really upset and sometimes cry when he failed tests in school, but now he’s kinda used to it so he’s disappointed, but not that surprised

-attends school more than you’d think because even though his parents dgaf if he’s alive or dead, dallas and darry (esp darry) encourage him to go and he listens most of the time because he wants to turn out better than his parents did. pony also probably encourages him aswell. (also, not that his parents are DUMB, but theyreeeehh yk not the greatest so iykwim lololoolll..)

-(modern) would REALLY like minecraft (and probably also roblox lmao gets his mind off stuff)

-he only truly opens up to pony and dallas (esp dallas) (when he WANTS to)

-BIG nail-biter

-scared of a lot of things (canon), but probably has one of those weird fears like afraid of something so random like lamps or paper or something

-it would probably be something like sourdough starters

i think thats like all i got rn!!!!!!!

[badmilkk]

I think whenever the boys get in trouble together he makes them line up so he can scold them n it always results in SOMEONE catching other persons eye n just dissolving into giggles (MUCH to darrys chagrin) (Aldo I ADORE ur art it is SO cute!!!🧡💕)

This is so accurate

{I think I would like to change my art style in terms of fast drawings. Maybe I'll go back to my old style. Those who have known me for a long time will know what I mean...}

[made-my-peace-with-all-the-bad]

Marcia sometimes traces Two Bit’s tattoo with her finger and tries to memorize every line because they tell the story of his culture and it’s history and she loves learning everything she can about him

[fantasynmicrochips]

I just remembered it's Superbowl Sunday so uhhhh

Curtis Gang Superbowl HCs 🏈

Darry has been prepping for this since Thanksgiving TRUST

Like he doesn't care who's playing, it's the biggest game of the year/season, he will NOT be missing it

Makes soooo many snacks it's wild. All his momma's recipes too because it'd be criminal not to

Everyone also brings stuff (half of it is stolen). The table is on verge of collapsing from the weight of food

Dallas is always assigned the task of bringing the booze because Two-Bit will pop it open before he even steps out of the store with it

The only day Soda drinks other than 4th July, because why tf not? Darry's too focused on the TV to care anyways

BETS ARE MADE EVERY YEAR usually Darry wins but occasionally Johnny makes one offhand and ends up being exactly right

Speaking of, Johnny and Pony usually just stay in Pony's room all day because A) neither of them really care for football THAT much, and B) Johnny doesn't like how loud the others get

So like imagine Johnny and Pony playing a card game while muffled yells from Darry and Steve, Two-Bit laughing, and a glass breaking are heard in the bg

(sneaking Stevepop in here shut up) Yk how there's the New Years kiss tradition? Yeah, so Soda and Steve do that too but with the Superbowl. Basically, if the team they root for wins, they kiss. If the team loses… They still kiss tbh they're both too hammered to care

Everyone def sleeps over that night and then stays home from school/work the next day because they're all hung over. Except Darry cuz he can't afford it

[brokenlovesong]

What if I ignore all the fics I currently have going and start a new one about how Sodapop, Steve, and two-bit take a train trip to nyc because Sodapop wants to understand dally more but he doesn’t tell the boys that’s the reason so when he’s like trying to find specific diners and such they do not have a clue what’s going on with him…
