well his name is purple for one but also hes such a little bitch hes sooo mean girl and annoying teenage boy at the same time

canonical cringe fail assassin, has a dog named dogchamp, alien??

he is SO mean and annoying. he gets mad at people for trying to talk to him and angrier when he’s ignored. he had an entire revenge arc that culminated in three people’s deaths (including his own) because he was so blinded by rage that he couldn’t fathom any other way out. he’s a hitman with no regard for other people’s lives and has betrayed people who hired him for a hit because someone else offered him more money. also purple is literally in his name, so. linked below is a picture of him trying to kill a man

This guy literally tortured a man to get revenge on another guy that blew up his spaceship. I think it’s hard to get meaner than that. But also he has a dog called Dogchamp. Hope this works as a bribe.

he's such a fucking bitch he will kill anyone in cold blood if they annoy him, he thinks he's better than everyone else and he doesn't care about Anything except his dog called DogChamp.

He likes to kill for money and for sport. He has a vicious hate for short people (short meaning 5’4 and under)

Hes soooo fucking mean he's like a mean girl. He attacks people he's so snarky he only loves his dog and his spaceship and his spaceship got fucking blown up!!! No room in his heart for love only murder and money !!!!

he’s literally such an asshole. he’s so fucking mean all the time he kills people for fun a guy blew up his house once so his solution was to kill that guys boyfriend

literally killed a fan favorite (still based af)

oh god this is getting included anyways c!purpled is like the ultimate bitchy moody teenager, like he got scammed (basically) and then went on a murder hunt so. idk if that speaks for itself. also he is purple. his name is purpled

Look it’s in the name

A) he's a mercenary B) he's a bitch (affectionate)

Bro killed for a dollar or sum', he also like betrayed his boss by killing his besting friend but he was kind-of a girlboss tbh hes just a guy tbf

hes a little bitch who doesnt know anything and thinks he does. hes the world's most murderous teenager. hes so emotionally repressed that his emotions have bottled up emotions

Gonna be honest I don't know a whole lot about his character but he's purple he's an alien he's a mercenary and also he kinda got killed but still. Idk he doesn't have any friends besides his wolf and he's 100% fine with that he doesn't like the other anyway

He literally killed Charlie Slimecicle. Have you seen Charlie Slimecicle. Purpled is literally an asshole teenager please let me out of hereee

hes just simply a jerk ur honor. mfersjust here to be a toxic gamer + hes so funny for it

I have something to say about Soda, and y’all are not going to like it. But I have to speak my truth.

I absolutely love that as a fandom we’re starting to humanize him and recognize his character for more than just a comedic bystander. But sometimes it feels like the pendulum now swings too far in the other direction, and some of these takes have turned him into a completely different character.

Yes, Soda is more than just his sweetness. He’s got anger and recklessness and grief, too. But exploring and developing that hidden depth shouldn’t be at the expense of his compassion and good-nature, which are still fundamental parts of his character. The sweetness doesn’t stop existing just because he’s also capable of darkness. They can and should coexist: that’s the entire point of complexity.

I keep seeing posts that use Ponyboy’s unreliable narration to argue away Soda’s sweetness, and I’ll be honest, it irritates me. Ponyboy is misguided, but he’s not outright wrong about what he observes. Darry is hard and cold. Johnny is frightened and nervous. Dally is tough and mean. And Soda is reckless and compassionate. Ponyboy might miss the subtlety of motivation (Darry is harsh, but not because he hates his brother) but he’s truthful about what’s externally obvious.

And yes, Ponyboy idolizes Soda, but the cause of his hero worship is rooted in Soda’s kindness towards him. If Darry were more emotionally present, Ponyboy would likely idolize him, too. But Ponyboy’s hero worship doesn’t cause him to erase Soda’s flaws. In fact, he calls them out on multiple occasions—Soda’s recklessness, his academic failures, his inability to take anything seriously. Pony is even embarrassed by Soda when Cherry asks about him dropping out.

Similarly important to note is that Ponyboy isn't the only one who puts Soda on a golden pedestal. Darry is equally guilty of idealizing his brother, and it's because of the emotional labor Soda does for his family; not because Ponyboy has crafted a completely different version of his brother for the readers.

The fandom wants a complex Soda, and so do I. But complexity doesn’t equate darkness! His core traits don't need to be erased to prop up a version of the character that’s unrecognizably gritty and twisted. Soda is interesting because he’s kind. He’s interesting because he’s emotionally intelligent. He’s interesting because he listens. These things don’t make him perfect! They’re both his strength and his weakness.

Soda who lets himself be walked over. Soda who keeps the peace at the expense of voicing his honest opinion. Soda who hides pain with a manic glimmer in his eyes. Soda who holds it in until he can’t. Soda who explodes in grief or anger when pushed to his breaking point. Soda who can’t sit still. Soda who embraces his “stupidity” like a badge of honor to hide how much it hurts. Soda who nobody really knows, because he protects himself by focusing on others. Soda with a fear of abandonment. Glass child Sodapop. Beautiful and invisible. Slowly being killed by the pressure of a role he’s not strong enough to perform.

And yes, he's also angry. He's also reckless. He's also easily distracted and can't sit still and likes to fight. But good characterization happens when you explore these traits within the context of the other ones. The gentleness and roughness are not mutually exclusive; they can and should go hand in hand.

Instead of “oh I bet Ponyboy is lying, Soda probably yells at him all the time,” consider: what in Soda’s life would be hurtful enough to push him to yell at Ponyboy? Instead of “Ponyboy’s naive, I bet Soda drinks like crazy,” consider: what deeper motivation might keep Soda from drinking?

That's complexity.

Of course everyone has a right to interpret the character differently. And I'm not arguing against headcanons and aus—I just wish we could recognize them as headcanons, instead of trying to twist canon into supporting our own personal characterization. The dark takes are certainly interesting, and fun to toss around. But please, don't discredit the rich depth of his canon characterization as "not gritty enough;" Soda doesn't have to drink, scream, or be Dally to be interesting.

Make him go feral, please—but consider doing it in a way that makes sense for his character, and expands on who he is, instead of erasing it.
