Hyperfixation so bad people think of me when they see it

[whizzvins]

pony and darry fans I LOVE U SM and i love them they’re my favs but WHAT ABOUT SODA ☹️ he’s just as much as a brother and every curtis bros fic i see is only pony and darry 💔

[whizzvins]

john collins you have awoken me to artist sodapop and i thank you for this. soda who is so bad with written words but can always draw and get out his emotions and love in that way!!!! so important to me!!!

[whizzvins]

someone pls hear me out on musically talented soda - he can play guitar really well and occasionally plays the piano the curtis’ have in their house

[whizzvins]

just wrote a timeline for the events of david and max meeting in music au and some of their backstories!! thank you @whizzvins for encouraging this!

not sure if i'll write a drabble of it and put it in the stories collection or if i'll just talk about here... or both! the backstory will definitely be touched on in chapters coming up, but i don't know if i should give the entirety of the background before touching on it

either way it will make sense with how exactly it's being touched upon, but im not sure how much backstory of my ocs people are interested in 😭

side note: yes, there WILL be an update soon! aiming to post before the new year but i've been reviewing my outline for the story and am considering moving the order of certain chapters to make the story flow better, but this is difficult since the next chapter that was planned connects with the one after it and ahhh very confusing but i do have my reasons for reconsidering the order

To me at least the Shepard siblings are like the worst version of The Curtis brothers. Tim is like Darry but he had to grow up to be colder and tougher to support his family but had to do things illegally to make things work. Angela is like Soda but wasn’t raised with that kindness that Soda had. She’s beautiful and attracts boys like honey to flies but does it as a means to an end. Curly is like Ponyboy but he had to grow up to be tougher and meaner due to his family name. He’s proud of it too, he doesn’t see himself as anything other than a Greaser.

Ponyboy’s the king of dilly dallying change my mind

Darry the type of guy to shit on the show or movie Ponyboy is watching, but then stand in front of the TV like this.

[whizzvins]

He’s so proud

[whizzvins]

One of the hardest things for Darry being Ponyboy's guardian is when he gets in trouble at school.

Like one time the school called him in because Ponyboy got into a fight at lunch with a soc because the dude said something along the lines of "you greasers are on thin ice" and Ponyboy said "at least I can stand on ice, you fat fuck" and they started swinging.

Poor Darry had to sit in front of the principal and act like that wasn't the funniest fucking thing he's ever heard.

[whizzvins]

People will call Soda pretty boy as an insult but it backfires because every single time he gets super giddy like “no kiddin?? for real?!! 🥹”

[whizzvins]

I think the curtis household would have a behavior chart and I will not elaborate

[whizzvins]

without darry, the curtis family would be dysfunctional and stressed and unable to stay together

without soda, the curtis family would be an emotional wreck of arguments and secrets and miscommunication

without pony, the curtis family would be bitter and depressed, constantly down without hope

just thinking about how they really can’t be anything without all of them

Watching the Macy’s parade performance honestly made me a little emotional. This cast is so young, and for many of them, the Outsiders is their broadway debut. It never would have worked otherwise; this story needs to be told by outsiders, newcomers, fresh faces with nothing but dream and passion, hard work and a name to make.

And they did it.

All the big things, they’ve done. Cast album. Nominations. The buzz. The fans. They earned the Tony—can you imagine, being in your 20s, debuting on broadway with so much to prove, and your first show wins best musical? And now, the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade, taking their place beside hundreds of other acts that children have watched and been inspired by, faces glued to the screen, thinking one day that’s gonna be me.

They were once those children, awed and dreaming. Now they create the dreams for others.

The video of the cast album listening party will always stick with me. Brody and Sky on the floor, holding each other’s hand. The huddle of friends around them. Emotions thick. I feel like a privileged intruder, watching these young actors overcome by the climax of their aspirations. No matter what happens when their contracts end, no matter who moves on to new goals and different projects, this show will always be theirs. This album will exist for the rest of time as their album. The original cast of the Outsiders on Broadway. These beautiful young people with so much to prove.

The musical is not a perfect book adaptation, and I’ll always have my personal differences with how they chose to tell the story. But you can’t deny that these actors deserve every moment of glory and acclaim they’ve gotten. They poured their souls into this story and these characters, and here they are. This is their moment.

They made it.

I'm in tech week for a musical and I JUST NOW forgot a set change (Stage manager was NOT happy 😭) so that's how I'm doing... ANYWAY, hcs for Curly joining the Curtis brothers on a vacation?? Mix of Curly being a little shit AND him and Pony having sweet moments? Maybe cuddling by a fire or smth? Thank youu!!

i hope everything i smooth sailing from there and everything goes ur way anon,,,gods speed🙏🏽🙏🏽

•the curtis’ were going camping as mostly a gift to pony for doing so well, yknow to get away from everything!!! take it as the closest hes gonna get to the country side for now. and theres a LOT of things curly would do, but go camping??? not rlly one of em, but a week???without pony??? booooooo borriinngg

•curly QUICKLY rethought this bc when he said he wanted to come along, pony said that they werent going to like, a decently well known camping ground, they were just gonna go into some “apparently safe” forest, camp down for a bit, then go. and curly was NOTTTT rocking w that, if u have CURLY thinking thats not safe, triple check ur plan dude😭😭

•pony was saying “nooooo cmon its fine, i already begged darry u have to go now” plus curly already asked tim and had his things packed so he was way too far along to just back down and NOT look like a wimp so he accepted his fate,,,wherever that comes,,, if thise white boys kill him in the forest everyone knows who did it,,,

•ANYWAYS, the forest was pretty far, so there was a small roadtrip moment for all four of em!! curly and ponys hungry asses ate more snacks than they were supposed to but thats probably for the best bc in between kinda sugar crashing and play wrestling and talking, they just passed out and gave darry and soda much needed peace (and photo material)

•by the time they got there, it was almost night so they had to hurry and make their tents. u already knowwww there was a passive aggressive fight between soda and curly over who was sharing what tent, but bc darry just wanted pony to relax, he just let him choose and pony chose curly cause look, he always cuddles up to soda, he can change it up these few nights, also darry was kinda hoping pony chose curly always he doesnt wanna sleep next to curly that would b so awkward

•the whole night darry couldnt sleep bc he heard pony and curly playing 21 questions except they barely rlly played it bc all curly was doing was making shitty oneliners and innuendos. darry heard curly gearing up to tell a brokeback mountain sex joke and took that as his queue to just fall asleep

•pony and curly has snuck out to go swim ONCE, and pony was scared shitless and that was PERFECT for curly. he could pretend to b the #protector while his babygirl clung to him, he was thinking “JACKPOT!!!”, DID they get caught later on the next day when darry said he heard them??? yes but sooooo worth it

•personally i like to hc curly as a guy who loves insects, so when he sees them he starts ranting about the type theyre looking at. darry and soda r half paying attention while ponys thinking “yea im making out w this guy later”

•and then curlys the kinda guy who loves the night time, and he can finally see more stars without the light pollution,,,ik hes lovin it and ponys thinking curly AND the sky is pretty. bonus points if theres a shooting star they see

•during the day curly and pony tend to get a liilllll lost while on their walks, and curly tried doing that thing where u leave breadcrumbs but some stupid squirrel just ate the trail so they had to yell for help

•i like to hc that when they used to live in haiti, curly used to visit his family in the country side sometimes so he knows some #lifehacks to help make things easier, SO YKNOW WHAT??? darry and soda can call curly many things, but useless???? aint one of em, darry and soda had some new found respect for him

•ESPECIALLY when it comes to dinner, bc if his experience curlys good at fishing and can make himself a fire ANNNDDD cook the fish w it, not that the curtis bros couldnt do that, but it woulda took wayyyyyy longer,,,,thats ponys man right there,,,woaw,,,,

•had the fire going long enough to cook s’mores which rlly was one of the only things pushing curly to go camping w em, right next to the reason of being w pony, him and pony filled UP on those things and cuddled hung out near the fire after wards, they both fell asleep there and had to b semi carried to their tents!!!

•darry and soda even had the decency to manhandle them into cuddling FOR them, to b fair the night was cold but still, how sweet of em
