    Summary

    Ponyboy Curtis used to see the world in gold.
    Now he sees it in red.

    Grief carved its way through him slow, quiet, brutal—until all that remained was a shadow with a blade in his pocket and blood on his hands. He was supposed to be the soft one, the golden one. The one who made it out.

    But even dreamers can rot.

    Dallas Winston was never soft. He’s built from scars and spit and fists that always hit first. He’s never claimed to care. Not about anything—
    Except Johnny.
    Except maybe him.

    Now Ponyboy’s eyes look too much like mirrors. And Dally’s the only one who sees what’s cracking beneath the silence.

    This is a story about the ones who don’t make it out clean. About what grief turns you into when no one’s looking.
    About how easy it is to mistake a knife for a lifeline.

    And how staying gold was never really an option.

    Summary

    The guys are hanging out, doing what they do best: absolutely nothing. The teasing starts as it always does, but this time, Steve, Two-Bit, and Dally take it a step too far about Darry's relationship with Ponyboy. Darry, in turn, decides to play a new game called "Guilt Trip" and absolutely obliterates everyone.

    Feels were caught, lines were crossed, and the vacant lot has never felt so empty.

    Summary

    Sodapop wakes up angry. Not angry at anyone, not even at anything—just that heavy kind of angry that sticks in your chest for no reason. The kind that makes the air feel wrong. But there’s Ponyboy, warm and asleep, breathing easy like the world has never touched him. And somehow, just by being there, Pony makes the storm inside Soda go quiet.

    Summary

    SHORT FIC/ONE-SHOT READERS: Obviously this is a long story, but the following chapters can be read as stand-alones involving the Curtis brothers and gang: 11 (Darry's birthday/grief), 17 (Darry comforts Soda in a depression), 59 (Darry breakdown), 107 (Soda/Darry grief), 124 (Ponyboy and depression), and 145 (Darry grief over Dallas). Several other chapters not listed could also be read as stand-alones but do contain OCs.

    LONG FIC READERS: Titled for Soda because story was not preplanned, but entire (surviving) gang is featured at different points in the story. There is a lot of Soda and others acting fine while having Issues. The focus is on friendships, trauma healing, (found) family, and (for some of them at least) romance. Canon-complaint. Adult themes are present including abuse, assault, mental health/suicide, references to sexuality.

    EVERYONE: I accept and LOVE suggestions/prompts. My writing style is to post my initial draft as soon as it's written and then revise as the story progresses. Therefore, minor rewrites are frequent and earlier chapters are more "finalized" than later ones.

    Summary

    Ponyboy swallowed down the last pill, his throat burning as tears welled up in his eyes. That was it. That was the last pill out of all thirty pills that had remained in his medication. The last pill out of all of the ones he had just swallowed. His throat hurt like the devil, and the pounding headache resonating in his head sure didn't help matters, but to Ponyboy, it didn't matter anymore. Nothing else did.

    And soon enough, nothing would ever matter to him again. Not when he was dead.

    Summary

    Darry doesn't ask for comfort. He doesn't even know how.

    But when the exhaustion finally weighs too heavy on his shoulders, it's Ponyboy—quiet, gentle, and full of light—who gives it without needing to be asked.

    Summary

    Sandy is newly sixteen, pregnant, and running out of options. Her Daddy's belt leaves bruises that nobody knows about, Sodapop doesn't know the truth, and Tulsa is a town that never forgets your sins. With each lie that Sandy tells, she inches closer to escape. But freedom comes with a cost and when you're raised in a place where silence keeps you safe, even a whisper can be dangerous.

    AKA a long fic on Sandy's side of the story.

    Summary

    Ponyboy Curtis thought he had his life figured out: the gang, the rules, the way things were always gonna be. But when Curly Shepard shows back up Pony starts drifting further from the only world he’s ever known, and he realizes maybe there’s more out there for him, more to himself too. New friends, new choices, and maybe even something more with the last person he ever expected. Kind of a coming-of-age story about learning you can have two places to call home: the family you’ll always belong to, and the one you choose for yourself.

    Or: new friends, new trouble, and growing pains you can’t fight your way out of.

    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

    Suddenly Paul feels self-conscious. Not about bein’ such good friends with Darry, no. Paul could never be insecure about that. What they have spent the last year buildin’ up means too much for Paul to taint in the name of appeasing the offhanded snide comments from strangers. Instead Paul feels like he ain’t good enough for Darry, like he deserves to be close with people who actually understand what it means to work nonstop to afford the life they live. Paul’s genuine attempts at empathy must be workin’ if Darry has bothered to stick around for this long, but it doesn’t change the fact that he’s empathetic, not sympathetic. That ain’t ever gonna change.


    Paul knows he has feelings for Darry, but he’s starting to realize that maybe Darry has feelings for him, too.
