When a fic doesn’t fit my head canons but it’s well-written

[nikkirouse123]

Some idiot: "Why are you reading your own fic, that's shallow and stupid"

All fanfic writers and writers everywhere: "Who the fuck do you think I wrote it for?!"

wore my thigh high boots on a walk today and we had to take a path through some long grass and while everyone else was rolling their pants into their socks and putting on jackets to protect themselves from ticks i was standing there smug as hell in my thigh high leather boots.

Ponyboy became well-known in town. Greaser gangs never really bothered him, but after the incident, everyone from the Shepard gang greeted him (Tim made sure they did; he had a soft spot for Pony after Dally's death). Some teachers at school read his essay and gave the Curtis family a huge bucket of goods. One time, a Soc tried to bother him, but three others were there to stop him: 'It's Ponyboy, we don't bother him. Leave him be.' Pony was too stunned to speak. Although Socs had never been polite to him (mostly they ignored him completely), they never tried to mock or beat him after that.

Pony and Darry are both starers but Darry has a lethal case of rbf and has a habit to disassociate more than stare while Pony stares to be unsettling or because he’s day dreaming

Dallas: “I know you’re the big ‘parenting expert’ - oh I’m sorry, I forgot. Your parents are dead!”

Darry: “…………….”

Dallas: “I’m sorry, that was one hundred percent inappropriate and I do apologize profusely.”

One of Darry’s “favorite” things to say to Ponyboy is “fix your face.”

Darry just scolded him. “Ponyboy, fix your face.”

Darry tells him to do his chores “You better fix your face, little man.”

Darry says no to him going out: “Pony, fix that face or I will.”

Although Ponyboy turns it back on him a lot since Darry has a chronic case of RBF.

They’ll be in public and Ponyboy will be like “Fix ya’ face, Darry,” because Darry’s standing there looking all pissed off even though he really doesn’t mean to, it’s just the way his face sits.

[nikkirouse123]

darry doesn’t blush on his cheeks but when he’s embarrassed/flustered the tips of his ears go BRIGHT red

[nikkirouse123]

Ponyboy, acting tough: You guys don't want to mess with me.

Johnny: Yeah, Ponyboy will straight up cry in public. Don't try him.

Ponyboy: Exactly, I will straight up-

Ponyboy:

Ponyboy, tearing up: Johnny, why would you say that?!

[nikkirouse123]

I love the two sides of Darry lore

[nikkirouse123]

Brothers being brothers

Ponyboy: Hey Soda you know what’s weird?

Soda: what?

Ponyboy: well you know how I like Pepsi a lot and you like horses?

Soda: yeah

Ponyboy: and my names Ponyboy and your names Sodapop?

Soda: yeah…?

Ponyboy: so like our favorite things are reversed based on our names

Soda: yeah…….. your favorite thing is Pepsi which is a type is soda which is me and my favorite thing is horses which is a grown pony and your names Ponyboy, omg

Ponyboy: I know right

Soda: wow, well I guess we gotta change names

Ponyboy: what no we don’t

Soda: yes we do it’s the only logical answer. Darry from now on my name is Ponyboy Curtis

Ponyboy: Soda stop!!

Soda: why you talking in the third person Sodapop?

Ponyboy: stop it!! You’re bugging me!!!

Soda: what’s wrong soda I ain’t doing nothing, just being Ponyboy

Ponyboy: Darry!! Sodas bullying me!!

Soda: no your not! Why would you ever bully yourself!

Ponyboy: DARRY MAKE HIM STOP

Darry: I’m gonna start working weekends again

[nikkirouse123]

Pony would sensor Steve's name whenever he texts someone and it'd piss Steve off so bad

"Where's soda?"

"Probably with Steve"

"Ew don't even mention st*ve right now"

And he'd fake gag whenever the name was said

In honor of me being stuck in line at Costco rn

Darry absolutely fucks with Costco because bro has like 7 people that are frequently just basically living in his house I know that man buys everything in bulk.

He makes the whole gang come to Costco to help because I know they gotta use multiple carts to accomplish that task lol

Two bit and dally HATE Costco because how tf are they gonna steal stuff because everything is gigantic

Pls feel free to add on I was just making myself laugh

[nikkirouse123]

I fear once Darry made such a traumatic and dark joke about his depression and parents death that the whole gangs just stared at him slack jawed for a good thirty minutes while he just hummed away paying bills and making dinner

[nikkirouse123]

Sometimes when Ponyboy is talking to his brothers about something he’ll use a word he learned in his english class as if it’s the most normal word in the world to use and his brothers always repeat it back to him, almost wistfully as if they can’t believe it came out of Ponyboy’s mouth but also because it happens so often that they know just how fed up he gets when they do it.

Pony doing his homework at the table while Soda is keeping him company, flipping through a magazine, “Soda can please stop tapping your shoe incessantly on the floor?”

Soda stops and looks up, making eye contact with Darry who was finishing up the dishes and gives a slight chuckle.

“…Incessantly,” Darry pipes up from behind him, smile and bewilderment evident in his voice.

Ponyboy’s head whips around and he gives the heaviest sigh, “OH MY GOD—ITS A NORMAL WORD!”

And Soda and Darry just erupt into laughter as Pony’s face has become bright red, homework entirely forgotten as he debates about how normal the word “incessantly” is.

Hc Pony once flipped off Paul after his and Darry’s breakup so HARD and PETTY that Paul was literally about to break his jaw but couldn’t bc it was outside a store and Darry was buying food or sm so Paul would get his shit ROCKED

Pony: ‘omg.. is that..?’

Paul: ‘tf is that kid on- Pony?’

Pony: ‘that IS Paul’

Pony: ‘ewwww- that BITCH’ flips him off with both hands while making the MOST disgusted face ever

Paul: ‘…’
