A Psalm in Ink by Kammly

Summary
At a lazy summer pool party, someone notices the ink on Sodapop’s ribs. The gang falls quiet when Darry has the same tattoo—same date, same placement, same silent vow.
It’s not for a lover or a loss.
It’s for Ponyboy, who has no idea they’ve carved his birthday into their skin like a psalm only they know how to sing.

Summary
Ponyboy Curtis and Curly Shepard never tried to hide their relationship. They held hands, exchanged kisses, and spent time together around both the Curtis and Shepard gangs. The problem? They assumed everyone already knew. When the gang finally puts the pieces together, chaos, confusion, and some heartfelt moments ensue as they process the news. Ponyboy, as the baby of the group, gets the most teasing but also the most love as his family rallies around him and his boyfriend.

Summary
The tragedy that befalls Dallas and Johnny doesn't happen. Which means that life continues on — Ponyboy has to confront his identity as an omega, and eventually his romance with Dallas Winston.
And it's not necessarily easy or simple. Not when Dallas has a much more checkered past than what anyone knows and a future that leads down to the Mob.
But he has Ponyboy and Ponyboy has him.

Summary
I loved the country. I wanted to be out of towns and away from excitement. I only wanted to lie on my back under a tree and read a book or draw a picture, and not worry about being jumped or carrying a blade or ending up married to some scatterbrained broad with no sense.
Ponyboy makes it to the countryside, as a Soc with Dallas Winston, the toughest greaser in Tulsa. All it took was a movie theater, killing Johnny Cade's and a train. They'll stay there, forever.
(They won't. At least not until his brothers find him in 1983 and pull him back home against his will.)

Summary
Pharmakon, φάρμακον, the Greek word that means both “poison” and “cure,” but, because of the limitations of the English language, can only be translated one way or the other depending on the context and the translator’s whims.
Ponyboy presented early, at thirteen. The doctor tells him that he won't be able to have children. He believes that for years — until a weekend in March of 1971.

Summary
Ponyboy Curtis and Curly Shepherd have a sort of mutual feelings for each other that they don't realize.
But when they start to realize, that's when the Curtis gang starts to show just how much they did like Curly. Always interrupting them. Especially Johnny and Dallas who are strangely.Jealous?
Ponyboy Curtis wouldn't mind being in love with a boy, if that didn't mean being in love with Curly Shepard.
Curly Shepherd wouldn't mind being in love he with Ponyboy Curtis, if that didn't mean being in love with a boy.
(This has nothing to do with the story, it's just a quote i found on TicTok and wanted to share) ^-^

Summary
Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is.
In 1978, Dallas Winston and Ponyboy Curtis are murdered the night before Halloween. The only people who mourn them are Angela Shepard, Helen Winston, and Two-Bit Mathews.
In 1979, Dallas Winston emerges from his grave, screaming and wanting to revenge on every single person involved in his and Ponyboy's death. He's only able to do it with the help of the Crow, a mystical being allowing Dallas to exact revenge – and giving his family the closure they need.
