The first few minutes of The Outsiders are pure gold (pun intended)

Our introduction to Dallas is him swinging down from a roof somewhere

Soda leaping over the car

Steve getting dragged by the Soc’s car

Dally throwing a beam at the Socs

Pony yelling for Darry to help

Steve doing a flip off the car

Darry being the only one to go to Pony and not to the Socs

Steve and Dally shaking hands

Dally making it his business to get the guy who did that to Johnny’s face

Steve’s nose being huge

Two-Bit being Pony’s personal bodyguard

Johnny and Pony giving Two-Bit’s car a push

Each character gets a little scene that represents their personality and it’s so perfect

Still thinking of how Twobit knows more than he lets on of the world and of his friends, just how thoughtful and caring he is under the jokes and shoplifting.

Particularly his relationship with Johnny,

it’s mentioned in the book that if it’s not the curtis’s he’ll likely be with Twobit on nights he doesn’t go home. Also how we see two fight back Johnnys mom from a beating and then again at the hospital. Looks out for him. Two bit is a follower, he typically will be in a rumble to back up his buddies so when he’s the one starting something it’s with purpose- every time we see or hear of him doing so it’s defense. For others more than himself. (He still held his own when he was jumped)

as someone who just did Tarzan as their school musical, this made me laugh way harder than it should’ve

phil collins is just everywhere at this point

I recently just reread the outsiders and decided to draw all the characters based on my interpretation! They’re a mix of both the book and movie. The outsiders is literally my favorite book so I hope I did them justice. <3333

…

hiiiiiii! Can you please do a ponyboy x soc reader but only johnny knows that they're dating and he accidentally lets it slip to the gang while pony and she are out on a date. And then the boys go and crash the date and tease them but soda is lowk so excited and proud

romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone ₊˚⊹ᰔ

your date with pony gets crashed ! | ponyboy curtis x soc ! reader ˎˊ˗

-

as a soc, you were expected to maintain your image by following an abundance of rules set by your parents— the most enforced one being to avoid greasers at all costs. these expectations have been engraved into your mind since the day you were born, not only by your parents, but by your peers as well, neither of whom you understood. if anything, you found it ironic how greasers were labeled ‘reckless troublemakers’ while your friends were shotgunning beers every friday night and jumping any greaser they stumbled across.

in all fairness, you were nothing like the people you surrounded yourself with. in fact, you began to grow fond of a greaser by the name of ponyboy curtis. the two of you shared an interest for poetry and watching the sunset. as your friendship grew stronger over time, so did your feelings for him. he definitely wasn’t what you’d expected from a greaser— sure, he was quite impulsive, but you appreciated his sensitivity and his love for the simpler things in life. he was smart, too. admittedly, you often found yourself asking him for help on your homework assignments. it wasn’t long before the two of you started dating. though it was difficult sneaking in and out of such a highly secured house, you’d risk anything for even just a few minutes with pony. these secret dates were to be kept between three people and three people only: you, pony, and his best friend, johnny.

while you and pony are at the dingo, the rest of the gang is at the curtis house. no one knows of pony’s whereabouts aside from johnny.

soda’s eyes dart around the room, looking for any sign of his little brother. “where’s pony gone off to?”

two-bit scratches his nape, shrugging. “beats me.”

without thinking, johnny blurts out a reply. “pony and y/n are on a da-“ johnny pauses, clearing his throat and praying that no one heard his slip up.

dallas nearly spits out his water, his eyes widening at johnny’s answer. “wait, wait- you talkin’ ‘bout soc y/n?”

“god.. what has pony gotten himself into..?” darry huffs out a sigh, rubbing his temples and shaking his head. though he seems disappointed, soda, on the other hand, applauds pony.

“i guess he learned a thing or two from me,” soda winks, running a hand through his greased hair. “soon enough, the ladies will be all over him.”

two-bit chuckles. “who knew socs were so into pone?”

steve scoffs, shoving his hands into his denim vest. “but of all people, why woulda soc pick him?”

johnny anxiously begins to bite the inside of lips as he inches away from the rest of the gang, embarrassed at himself for letting a secret slip out in such a stupid way.

dal screws the cap of his water bottle on. “y’know, i’ve got an idea,” he steps forward, motioning for the rest of the gang to come closer. “i say we crash his date. ain’t no harm in a little fun.”

the dingo’s always been chaotic— not that it was out of your nature, but there was always a fight going on outside, the screams muffled beneath the jukebox blasting elvis presley. while you and pony are trying to enjoy your dinner, customers are spinning all around the restaurant and dancing along to the music. you’re practically drowning in a sea of leather jackets and greased hair.

you pick at the undercooked burger in front of you, offering pony a reluctant smile. the music was beginning to overwhelm you, and the disgusting food wasn’t helping your situation at all.

“it’s pretty loud in here, isn’t it?”

pony nods, taking a bite out of his fry. “didn’t think it’d be so packed tonight,” he mutters under his breath. “why don’t we go somewhere quiet after dinner? somewhere we can be alone.”

your lips quirk up into a soft grin at his suggestion. “that sounds good! we could-“

before you finish your sentence, you’re interrupted by the sound of someone calling your boyfriend’s name.

“POOOONYYYY, OH LOVER BOYYY!” two-bit storms into the dingo, the rest of the gang following behind him. he approaches pony, twirling his invisible strands of hair like a little girl.

soda lightly nudges your shoulder, a proud smirk across his face. “pony-kid’s a real dreamboat, ain’t he?”

dallas pockets his hands. “y’all had your first kiss yet?”

you peer over dallas’ shoulder, spotting johnny. he’s looking down, very obviously avoiding eye contact with you. you then turn your head back to pony, raising a brow. was this all a set up? did johnny intentionally tell pony’s friends that the two of you were on a date? what the hell was even going on??

pony slouches down from his seat, his head in his hands concealing the red flush washing over his cheeks. of course, he knew the rest of the gang was bound to find out about his relationship with you— he just didn’t think it’d be this way.

‘romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.. i’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run’ .ᐟ ₊˚⊹♡

steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he says "soda. shoes."

steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he says "what were you doing, walking by your lonesome?"

steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he says "beer for breakfast? really?"

steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he says "where's Superman?"

steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he puts his all into the rumble for johnny

steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he runs out of the house with three broken ribs

steve randle doesn't say "i love you", he stumbles forwards, about to fall if soda weren't to hold him back

steve randle doesn't say "i love you", but goddamn if he doesn't mean it

Outsiders lineup no. 2

Finally I’m done with the Outsiders lineup lol. I posted the original one back in September and started it last June 😭

But it’s done and I’m happy with it!!

y’all have seen the Evie drawing before, but the rest should be new I think lol. I drew most of these ages ago but yk. I like em now! The fact that so many months passed between each of them does mean the style is slightly different for each character, and the heights/scale are kinda bogus but i tried to be consistent istg

The Curtis gang never said "I love you" because it wasn't tuff

Even to their parents, a lot of the time when their parents went out, they just said bye

So when the news that the Curtis parents died and they never told them "I love you" before they left arrived, they started saying it every chance they got

Screw being tuff or being seen as weak that hurt them all and they couldn't lose each other without expressing their love

And when Dally and Johnny both die?

They start saying it even more. Even Steve, who said it through actions, began speaking the words when he left, even if only heading to the store for five minutes

Because they realized they weren't safe and at any minute one of them could be jumped and killed

So they began saying "I love you"

[r0cky-road]

2 am at the lot.

Darry had sent out TwoBit and Steve to go fetch the kid. It was late, way later than his curfew. Darry couldn’t call the police, unless he wanted soda and pony thrown in a boys home, so he sent out two dumbasses to go retrieve him.

“he probably fell asleep at the lot.” Steve suggested, “reading one of those poems and it was so boring he drifted off.”

And so they made their way there, keeping an eye out for any fancy shiny cars full of Socs driving around looking for a fight.

but when they got to the lot the sigh was quite something.

“welp. I found him!” TwoBit chuckled. “And a Shepard!”

Steve let out a laugh too. “Man I wish we had a Polaroid.” He walked up to the two kids and looked back at TwoBit with a smirk before grabbing pony’s ankles and yanking him. He landed flat on the ground and curly stumbled awake as well with the quick movements.

“wake up love birds!” TwoBit hollered as he wheezed loudly into the night.

The two boys groaned and rubbed their faces to get rid of sleep. Pony looked up with a quick head movement and turned scarlet real fast, his ears were practically on fire. Curly looked similar but he was way too tired to genuinely be embarrassed.

“o-….oh hey guys.” Pony stumbled out as he rubbed his neck. “So what are yall doing around here?”

“yeah, why the fuck did ya have to wake me up?” Curly asked with a rash tone, sleep still in his eyes and one of his hands still holding Ponyboy.

“well while yall two were out here goofing around and being all lovey dovey,” Steve commented, making sure to really stick it in the kids’ face. “Your curfew passed and Darrel sent us to come get ya. Just for us to find you and baby Shepard over here cuddling under the starry night.”

“how romantic!” TwoBit commented.

“Ok yall can quit it now.” Ponyboy grumbled as he lifted himself to his feet, pulling curly up with him. “C’mon Curls, you can sleep at my house.”

“oh I can’t wait to tell Pepsi and Superman about this!” Steve said in a sing song voice as TwoBit and him followed the two boys.

“Can it Randle!” Curly hollered, followed by the two older boys snickering.

My favorite part of Grease Got A Hold is how Darry is just standing off to the side for most of it, with his arms crossed and silently judging everyone.

[dallasgallant]

Something about boyhood I need to study and shake but am most definitely romantacizing. Yet at the same time there’s such …
