The Outsiders Au - Tumblr Posts
Jfjskfns would absolutely love to hear this au of yours!!
some silly little headcanons i have specifically for my au of the outsiders that i felt the need to write down all in one place.
after their parents died, darry made a deal with the state that he could keep his brothers as long as they're able to support themselves
so darry got three jobs, roofer, contractor, and uh...yk what.
two-bit who was almost 18 started working at a grocery store cause i said so
dally managed to get a job as a bartender at bucks
and ofc soda and steve work at the dx
johnny and pony don't have jobs yet cause the others don't want them to because they're "too young"
(when really they're 14 and 15 and are in fact old enough)
when everyone else is at work, johnny and pony stay home and watch movies. like binge watch.
they once thought they could handle horror movies.
they couldnt.
they were latching on to darry when he got home.
dinner at their house is chaotic.
they're yapping over each other and darry's trying to get them to settle down so that people don't report a noise complaint on them.
how to bribe the curtises?
not money.
not gold.
these big backs only listen when there's dessert involved.
even after a 12 course meal, if they're hungry in the middle of the night and sneak out to the kitchen, there will most likely already be someone there
steve and soda used to share a room.
keyword: used to
they would stay up all night giggling and shi
same thing with pony and johnny.
so steve and pony swapped rooms.
darry regrets it cause now soda and pony cant stop giggling, but he can't stop it so he just gave up
so therefore dally and two bit share a room.
dally isn't thrilled
two bit yaps
dally needs sleep or he'll be grumpy in the morning
but two-bit contradicts him saying that dally is gonna be grumpy either way.
and then dally comes at him about still living in the house as an adult and then teases him for his lack of ability to pull
dally would try to find a way to get darry to let him sleep in his room if darry weren't such a heavy snorer
(dally snores too)
(but he refuses to accept it)
darrys the type to need his morning coffee before speaking to anyone
dal just doesnt want to speak to anyone
ponys a night owl.
they'll tell him to go to sleep and pony will be like "just one more chapter"
but he keeps reading and suddenly the birds are chirping
johnny tried to protest this once back when they shared a room
to say he'll stay awake too unless pony goes to sleep
he fails and ends up falling asleep.
pony gives him a pat on the head and continues to stay awake until the sun shined through the window.
pony then proceeds to sleep the day away
(same)
more outsiders au headcanons but it's pony being a musician
(if you wanna see more and you havent already read it i have a oneshot under the same name on ao3)
pony is def the most musical in the family.
like their parents tried to get them all into piano and stuff and other than darry no one else really cared except for pony
i imagine hes a choir kid
and just loves music with all his heart
like out of nowhere he would start singing something thats stuck in his head
all loud and obnoxious
they could all be in the living room chilling and stuff, doing nothing much in particular and pony would just be all like
"R-E-S-P-E-C-T! FIND OUT WHAT IT MEANS TO ME"
and he would rock it too
steady vibrato and them runs and riffs
like he's insanely talented
and everyone would just sigh
cause they've given up on getting him to stop
or when he's practicing at the piano and something happens or someone does something dumb
he just plays the circus theme song thing
and he'd get smacked upside the head
or if he's sad he can usually relate it to a song lyric and he'd be caught singing it since it would end up getting stuck in his head and everyone would just be like
"you good homie??"
and when he's feeling things
he WILL write a gutwrenching, heartstring-tugging poem that he may or may not adapt into a song
he would also randomly belt something from a musical
and then darry would randomly start singing (sometimes in harmony) to throw pony off and darry would be all like
"i aint tryna be mean but before you there was meeee"
darry would also try to help him out with piano and they'd argue because darry thinks it's this note and pony disagrees or smth
darry fr be like
"pony it says piano so here's a tip: you have to play it softly"
and pony would be like
"I AM PLAYING IT SOFTLY"
(he says as he slams down on the keys)
and the others are just watching, eating popcorn because it's always entertaining to watch darry try to get pony to listen or vice versa cause they're both stubborn af
