Favorite Lighting/projection Cues In The Outsiders Part 12/?

oh victor soda.

The more references I look up of the Curtis house the more confused I am. I think Pony and sodas room has two doors, one to the kitchen and another the hall/ living room. Don’t even get me started on the complex mix of space that is the living room and dining room.

Been looking at movie photos and museum photos for help but at this point I need them to drop like the original floorplan.

i open the doc. I look at the doc. I read the doc and think "man I wish the author would update this, i like where it's going". I close the doc. I realize I am the author. I bash my head against the wall.

Sodapop Curtis who loves too hard and doesn't get loved hard enough in return.

He has to love too hard because he doesn't, who will?

Sodapop who offers to move into his baby brother's room to help with his nightmares. Not just for Pony's sake, but for Darry's too. so that Darry can get more sleep and go do his job better rested. Sodapop who drops out of the school that made him feel so stupid for years, but not for himself. No, he drops out so that he can help Darry afford the house. He drops out so that Darry doesn't kill himself trying to pay for everything on his own. Sodapop who will come home from working his own long shift and sit down to give his brother a massage so that he doesn't injure himself. Sodapop who needs to be the constant mediator between his brothers. Sodapop who separates them and then listens to them each individually. He'll listen to Darry's vents about work and money and will offer his support. He'll listen to Pony's fears and reassure him that Darry doesn't hate him, but loves him more than anything. Sodapop who doesn't really have that for himself. He's the family's heart and soul.

So, even when Sandy leaves, Soda knows they have bigger things to worry about than his "silly breakup". He refuses to make it a big deal. Because he knows that Darry is worried sick about the hospital bills and how they're going to afford those while also having food and heat for the fall and winter. He knows that Ponyboy is mourning his best friend and is never going to be the same. So, Soda reassures them and comforts them. But he can't do it forever. Some nights he cries. And not his usual, loud sobs. These are silent, heavy tears that fights their way out of his eyes and glide down his face slowly. It's when he's in bed, late at night, usually after he calms Pony down from a nightmare. Then, he lets himself break. And he cries. He cries for Sandy and what she did to him, for Dally and Johnny and all their suffering, for Pony and the pain he's experiencing, for Darry who almost had the life he wanted, for the whole gang who are never gonna be whole again. And he does it alone. Because he doesn't want other people to worry about him. He can handle it himself, they have bigger problems.

Soda, who knows he's loved, but wishes that someone would tell him or show him a little more often.
