This is how I imagine Johnny eats every meal

[golden-rolling-hills]

When Pony was a little kid, Steve used to just knock him down for fun and to make Pony cry.

like, 4 year old Pony would just be chilling and 7 year old Steve would just run over and push him down and run away.

[chippedshake]

Do you think that, four months after canon, the whole gang held their breaths for a week, walking on eggshells and not going anywhere alone and hardly riding cars because all the tragedy of the past year had happened with four-month intervals and please, not another one?

“There just isn’t enough content to support Stevepop, they’re just best friends” you've obviously not mastered the art of over analyzing the subtext

[ramennoodlezzzao3]

Outsiders headcannons

-Darry

He canonically is skinny-ish with lots of muscle

-Two-Bit

He is chubby-ish, he has big arms and a bit of stomach but he is well built and can still fight.

-Dallas

He is average. He eats all three meals and sometimes some food in between, but he normally burns all of his calories off in fights or just walking around town.

-Steve

He is also pretty average, has a bit of muscle on him and pretty big arms but the rest of him is ✨snatched✨

-Sodapop

Same as Darry just a bit less muscle and little shorter (I HC 6���0)

-Johnny

Was underweight for a long time until he met the Curtis’, he then became a semi normal weight (I HC the gang was complete when pony turned 7, so he would have been around the age of 9 or 10)

-Ponyboy

He is SKEENY. He has a bit of muscle in his arms, stomach and legs. He eats A LOT but normally forgets to eat breakfast on the weekends and runs off the calories during track practice.

[tending-the-hearth]

every time i remember the canonical ages of the greasers in "the outsiders" i get the most violent whiplash

darry (20)

two-bit (19)

dally (17)

steve (17)

sodapop (16)

johnny (16)

ponyboy (14)

like i think the outsiders musical just completely nailed the change of making darry and dally around the same age, and i love that and obviously keep it as my own personal hc that they're the same age because ✨angst✨, but the fact that canonically???? two-bit???? is the second oldest?????

also no wonder darry was so stressed all the time he's literally the only responsible kind of adult in these kids' lives???????

Dallas Winston and his Introduction into the Gang

Some story head canons on how Dallas found himself in the Curtis gang.

After Dallas left NYC, (for reasons he’s never brought up to anyone) he was staying in a town near Tulsa.

He was sleeping in alleys and abandoned lots, (because he was a 15 year old kid with only enough money for the bus ticket out of New York) he spent most days in bars around the area or other public places that nobody would kick him out.

That’s when he met Buck Merril.

Buck was making a drop off to a guy he knew.

This also happened to be the bar Dallas was spending the day in.

That’s when he got a good look at Dallas. A young shifty-eyed kid who looked beat up and tired.

“Aren’t you too young to be in a bar this early kid?”

“Aren’t you too old to be out of the nursing home this time of day?” Dallas retorted quickly while Buck only smiled and shifted the chew in his lip.

Then he got to talking to his friend who was the owner of the bar. This guy explained that Dallas came around during the day and often slept out back. Judging by the limp he was walking with, the black eye, and cut up face he suspected that the kid might be homeless or running from someone.

Buck, thinking of his days running from his home, offered Dallas a place to stay in exchange to watch the bar some nights. He did know how to bartend, right?

Dallas took it and rode back to Tulsa with Buck.

So that's how it went for a couple months. Dallas stayed in a trashy room above Bucks bar, running it most nights and not quite trusting Buck at all.

Buck could tell that Dallas was still jumpy and was hiding whatever happened in his past. He never pushed, not really caring all that much, he’d done all that he could for this kid.

Then a kid with gleaming eyes and rusty sideburns made a stop at the bar one night.

Two-Bit Mathews was alone, looking for booze, a blonde, or even a fight.

So he sat at the bar and after throwing down a couple drinks, he went over to a big guy and started wisecracking. Pissing the guy off to the point where he wanted to take it outside. Two-Bit was a laughing drunken 16 year old, barely dodging the punch this guy threw. It caught him on the side of the head.

He hit him again, but before this guy could do anything else, Dallas Winston stepped in. Shooting the bigger guy a couple hooks and jabs, enough to knock him to the ground. The wisecracker, who hadn’t managed to spill too much of his drink, jumped to his feet.

“Shoot man, that guy was twice your size and you dropped him. You can’t be more than a kid, huh?”

Dallas grinned coldly. “And you can’t be more than a stumbling drunk.”

“I’ve got some friends racing in some sort of drag race tonight. Things might get out of hand, you wanna come?” Dallas found himself nodding.

The drag race was where he watched two crazy greasers nearly kill themselves over a $15 bet.

Following the race, a fight broke out and he helped Two-Bit and his gang.

On the way back he officially met those two crazy greasers. Sodapop Curtis and Steve Randle. Soda was happy, golden, and filled with an excited electricity that Dallas had never seen before. Steve was pissed that his hair had gotten messed up in the scuffle, he was attempting to gel it back in place. He was also introduced to the fearsome Darrel Curtis. (who had his back in the fight without even knowing his name)

Later in the year, after a couple more drag races and making trouble at the Nightly Double with this crew, they said he was a part of the gang.

Dallas nearly found himself trying to explain that this wasn’t a gang. A gang had rank, position, and fearsome discipline, but he didn’t bother. He figured being a part of a gang was different across different states.

He definitely liked Oaklahomas version of a gang better than New York’s. This gang felt like a family. One he could stick with.

I love the idea of everything about the outsiders being in Ponyboy’s head

[skyguygeneraltano]

Ponyboy comes home from college for Thanksgiving headcanon

Darry walks in, sees Steve, Two-Bit and Sodapop in a state of shock

Darry: What happened?

Sodapop shakes his head: It’s Ponyboy, Darry

Darry’s heart drops: Oh no, did he make it back

Two-Bit, wipes tear: Yes, but he’s…changed

Darry, thinking Ponyboy has fallen into the wrong crowd: What do you mean?

Steve, staring off into the distance: He was listening to…I can’t say it

Darry: To what?

Sodapop: The Beatles, Darry, he was listening to…*them*

Darry: *gasps* No…you must be mistaken

Two-Bit: Those university kids got your brother…he is into…

*Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds plays in the distance, Darry tiptoes into Ponyboy’s room, and there is Ponyboy next to his record player*

Ponyboy, innocently : Hey Darry, my roommate gave me his extra Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band vinyl :-)

Darry, drops the mail: Ponyboy how could you?

Ponyboy: What?

Darry: We are an Elvis Presley household

Ponyboy: Eh, Elvis’s stuff just don’t do it for me anymore, the Beatles are just better

Darry: Get out you, you…traitorous child

[chippedshake]

Ponyboy and Johnny, to each other: The reason I'm living is you

Two-Bit, who was ready to go to Texas to look for them:

Steve, who warned Johnny about "girls like Sylvia" and tried to protect him:

Soda, who dropped out for Ponyboy to stay in school and was the first to rush to Johnny when they found him beat up:

Darry, who gave up his future for Ponyboy and Sodapop and managed to convince the doctor they were the closest thing to family Johnny had:

Dally, who has such hard time expressing affection but still ruffles Johnny's hair and tells him to take care and his voice turns to a "high pleading tone" when he says he doesn't want him to go to jail and literally ran into to burning church to save him:

Ponyboy and Johnny: Wherever you go, that's where I'll be

[racetrackhigginsscigar]

johnny is italian and speaks in italian when he’s angry, thank you!

[outsidersstuff16]

Head Canons I have abt them (anon request!)

Order: Ponyboy, Johnny, Dallas, Soda, Darry, Steve, and Two-Bit

there will be ten each

Ponyboy-

Ponyboy seems like the type of person who will read the book before he watches the movie on the book to compare them and show the gang what's different about what.

2. Ponyboy seems like he would struggle to find writing creativity and when it comes to him, he goes into this writing zone and doesn't want to be bothered by anyone for the next 2-3 hours.

3. Ponyboy gives off this feeling that he's nice to everyone as long as they haven't badmouthed the gang or did any of the gang wrong. Like he would stop and help old people across the street because no one else would, You now?

4. I don't think that Ponyboy is a dog or cat guy rather a ferret guy who likes to dress up his fur noodle in things he's crocheted in his free time.

5. I can defiantly see Ponyboy being into what my family calls "grandma hobbies"; things such as Knitting, Crochet, Pottery, and Quilting.

6. Ponyboy is probably hella clumsy, like I could see him messing around on a table at bucks and falling off trying to jump to another table.

7. I feel like if the book was placed in the mid 70's he'd definitely listen to Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen or in his current time period he definitely listens to The Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash, he just seems like that type of guy.

8. He definitely treats Johnny to Fast Food when he has the extra money. It's not in a relationship kind of way just a hang out type of thing.

9. I can definitely see Ponyboy having a good 9 or 10 first place medals for track. He's probably what's carrying his schools track team too.

10. Ponyboy definitely helps people who can't get their lockers open at school and it's more than likely his pride and joy. I dare you to convince me otherwise.

Johnny-

1.He is a respectful king and no matter what everyone else says, he is not and innocent bean. Let's be so fr. He literally killed a man for his best friend and hangs out with Dallas Winston and y'all are gonna tell me he's innocent? Yeah right.

2.He has definitely picked up some really dirty jokes from hanging out with Dallas but will only use them in the appropriate setting. If there is something serious going on than he won't let out a joke. A party on the other hand, oh shit he's gonna be saying a dirty joke every 5 minutes.

3.He loves the rain and thinks it's a gift from God. He loves to dance in it alone or when he's feeling depressed or sad he'll just sit in the rain and let it comfort him. He thinks it's prettiest out when it rains. (and I Agree)

4.He loves helping mutts he finds on the streets. He has a best friend German shepherd he named Houston, and he follows him around a lot. I can also see them sleeping and cuddling in the lot together to protect each other.

5.Johnny has definitely influenced Pony to get his Ferret so Houston can play with it for funzees. He has also shown up to like 80% of Ponyboy's track meets.

6.Johnny goes home on Monday afternoons because he knows his parents are at work and he will go into his room and find entertainment for a few hours, shower, change his clothes, and then leave.

7.before his parents started fighting, they would do family outings on Wednesdays and go to restraunts, amusement parks, and fairs together and Johnny still keeps polaroids of those outings.

8.Johnny really doesn't drink but I can see him drinking on those big occasions when school gets out for the summers, or if its someone's birthday, but I think that'd be about it.

9.You can fight me on this in the comments, but I don't care. Johnny definitely has a summer job every summer. He'll work at the movie theater, the drive in, the dingo, or try for cashier at the DX. He always finds a job for the summer.

10.When Johnny's mom and dad started fighting Johnny was his mom's therapist and his dad's shit talking listener. So, like after a fight, Johnny would consol his mom and get her to bed and then listen to his dad talk shit about his mom until he was black out drunk.

Dallas-

1.Dallas has been around his parents fighting a lot and he definitely has mommy issues because of it. His mom has definitely left him for weeks or months at a time to starve growing up which destroyed his relationship with her growing up.

2.Dallas and Tim Shepherd definitely get drunk and sing stupid karaoke together and Ponyboy keeps polaroids of it to give to Dallas later when he's sober and Dallas keeps them in his wallet.

3.Dallas is definitely scared of spiders because he was bit by one when he was like 11 and has never let it go and so the gang will mess with him on occasion and scare the shit out of him with a rubber or plastic spider or some shit.

4.Dallas got his St. Christopher necklace from a preacher in New York after telling him all that is mother had done to him and him and that preacher still keep in contact. I can just see it man.

5.Dallas definitely smokes the 7-leaf clover, let's just face it, he's probably been to jail for it too. I could see him taking a weekend trip every other month to another state just to get the shit too.

6.He's broke a chair over Two-Bit's back to see if the chair was indestructible. It was not and the gang never let Dallas or Two-Bit forget it. Two-Bit and him do the dumbest shit together all of the time.

7.Dallas has beef with this one cat out in the streets of Tulsa because he was trying to be nice and pet it and it scratched his face all to hell and has been look for it for revenge ever since.

8.Dallas was trying to give Johnny a piggyback ride wearing socks on a hard wood floor and he slipped and fell into a metal chair and broke his pinky and ring finger and kicked the damn chair after he got up.

9.Dallas loves bon fires because it makes him feel like a fire master and he likes to stick sticks into the fire to catch them on fire as if they were torches and will pass it around to tell a spooky story.

10.If this man were to have a pet, he'd have a bearded dragon because he'd find them cool as fuck and he'd scare Ponyboy with it when he mouths off.

Sodapop-

1.Soda gets extra tips at the DX from middle aged women or high school girls and he's never complaining about it because bitch he's broke! He does however split the tips with steve.

2.When Soda's mom and dad passed, Soda got most of her pictures and also got a silk duvet and pillow and he won't use it because he's scared to ruin it.

3.When Soda is mad, he'll go work on cars at the DX and won't come back home for a couple hours till he's calmed down and talks to Darry about his situation. Soda is really car smart too.

4.Soda at some point fixed and rebuilt and engine and everyone went out to celebrate it because it was Soda's equivalent to graduating and it was the happiest day of his life and have about 20 different polaroids of the engine and celebration in his work shirt.

5.He picks on Steve ALL of the time at work and Steve almost always gets him back with a really fucked up prank for example, wrapping the staff urinal with Surran wrap and 9 times out of 10 you'll hear Soda yell "Steve, You FUCKHEAD!"

6.Soda and Steve at some point were dealing with a rude customer and Dallas Walked in and they all just started making fun of this person with no chill and everyone was laughing about it for the next 3 days after it happened.

7.Soda love to watch the nearby rivers flow. It's like free therapy to him and it became his obsession when he was 12. His mother showed him that spot. Soda goes there to think when he's really upset. When his dad and mom died, he went there and camped for 2 days.

8.him and Steve will make extremely offensive jokes about each other but will refuse every single time to crack a joke about the Death of Soda's Mom and Dad and I mean refuse.

9.Soda will steal Soda he's never tried during his shift and give a review to Steve so Steve will know what he should try when he goes in. Sometimes on their day off on the way to a rodeo, Steve will stop for drinks and buy one that Soda rated poorly, and Soda almost threw hands with Steve because of it.

10.Soda likes to give each rodeo trip a nickname like if someone got flung into a wall by a bull, he'll call it the the bull-wall rodeo for the rest of his life and everyone will know what he's talking about.

Darry-

1.Darry is a prankster at work. He just is. I can see him putting charcoal paste on his boss's radio announcer and he put it right up to his lips and was practically making out with the thing and everyone was laughing at Darry's boss the whole day.

2.Darry wanted to go to college to do Physical Therapy on people but when his parents died, he had to use his college funds to pay for the caskets and funeral service and he cries about it often.

3.Darry and Dallas have man to man talks about stuff that upset them over the week and nobody knows about these talks because it's like their therapy that they can have for free, and they can both trust each other to keep it unknown.

4.At some point Darry went to work incredibly sick and passed out while finishing a roofing job and he was taken to the hospital and when Soda came to see him Darry broke down because of stress.

5.Darry tries to participate in church with his brothers every other Sunday and it always makes him feel like his week will be better. He finds it as a good reset.

6.Darry likes to make faces at babies at the store and when the baby starts giggling excessively Darry runs for it. He did this one time when he was in the store with Soda and Soda told everyone.

7.Darry likes to put Steve in a headlock as his hi to Steve and when Darry doesn't do this, everyone questions if he's ok and if something happened at work for him to not do that to Steve.

8.Darry won't get a dog till Pony turn 17 and more mature because then the responsibility of the dog can be split more even, and he'd get it as a gift for Pony.

9.Darry has tripped Ponyboy down the stairs for being mouthy and Ponyboy will never let him live it down and Darry is still very proud of his actions to this day.

10.Darry was definitely the quarterback for the football team and his dad was more than proud of him for it. They celebrated with Darry the night he was announced quarterback.

Steve-

1.he's very insecure of his nose. Like people who walk into the DX will make fun of him and mock him for it. At some point it got so bad Steve had to start working exclusively in the back of the DX on cars.

2.He loves rodeos because his mom used to work at them when he was little, so he became very accustomed to watching them he, at some point, got so close with one of the rodeo stars that he was allowed to ride his horse and do some of the jumps.

3.Stevie boy here does not like chocolate cake as much as everyone in this fandom thinks. He likes it enough to eat it. Like Two-Bit ate chocolate cake in one scene and everyone kinda looked over it but Steve eats it and everyone's all like "OHHHHHHHH".

4.Steve had a rough childhood and he had to get close with his male neighbor to learn basic 'dad' tasks from him. So, Steve and his neighbor are really close and have a really good relationship and respect for each other.

5.Steve enjoys drinking on Friday nights at bucks and more often than not Buck will let him have the beer or shots on the house. Steve doesn't get black out drunk but just enough to get buzzed and feel nice.

6.Steve saves up for his own car. He has a separate job where all of the money he earns goes towards buying his first car all on his own and his mom knows of it and is really impressed with Steve's financial decision.

7.If Steve were to have a pet, he'd have a cockatiel named Fred (My sister's idea) and this damn bird would piss Soda, Pony, and Dally so much it's actually crazy. Dallas and this damned bird had a roasting competition, and everyone was judging the shit out of them.

8.Steve likes to bully and I mean bully the shit out of Two-Bit for the fact that he watches Mickey Mouse. However, Steve calmed down on it because Two-Bit doesn't even watch Mickey Mouse all of the time.

9.Steve trips up the girls that make Soda uncomfortable with their comments on Soda's physical appearance. At some point one girl was tripped so hard her face go like 30 scratches on it and it was hilarious.

10.Steve and Two-Bit will do extremely dumb shit together all of the fucking time. Literally Steve tried to do a backflip off of the front porch of the Curtis house and Two-Bit tried to catch him and they both tripped and hit their heads harder as fuck and then blamed Ponyboy.

Two-Bit

1.Well, it's Two-Bit he's a wild card. Unless someone died, he's saying the most random shit ever. The boys were at the drive in and all Two-Bit had to say was "damn I took the longest piss ever yesterday I pissed the new Mississippi River, man."

2.Two-Bit likes to blame Ponyboy for anything and everything he can and everyone finds it so funny because it makes them seem so much alike siblings and its actually so unreal and funny.

3.Whenever Two-Bit is upset, he'll talk to Soda or Steve about it and 9 times out of 10 they can help him out with it. He's really good at getting help when he needs it.

4.Him, Steve and Dallas are some hyper motherfuckers around each other and will all do some dumb shit that will end up hurting all three or two out of the three on one of the three and they can't help but act like total crackheads around each other.

5.Two-Bit isn't actually as obsessed with Mickey Mouse as everyone makes it seems he just happens to enjoy it but that doesn't necessarily mean he has to be absolutely obsessed with it.

6.If Two-Bit had a pet I'm pretty sure he'd have a Raccoon, tell me those bitches don't give off the same energy I know he'd be feeding the raccoon hotdogs 24/7 365. That raccoon is probably fat as fuck man.

7.Two-Bit likes to take walks around Tulsa with Tim or Curly Shepherd and crack the corniest jokes ever with them and wave down cops just to tell them that there was 'trouble' at the dingo.

8.Two-Bit likes to go and volunteer at vet clinics and somehow can always get at least 15 dogs adopted in 1 day and he calls it his big boy charm and use that information as you will.

9.Two-Bit likes to pick berries for Darry so he can make pie, fruit salads, and other deserts. He also has a designated basket for it and unless he has that specific basket, he won't go, he'll just stay home.

10.Two-Bit steals the ingredients for smores and makes a bon fire to roast them with the gang and I already know he likes his mallow burnt and that's ok because that's when they're best and him burning the mallow grosses Dallas out so so so much.

The End
