Ponyboy Curtis - Blog Posts

Dissecting him into a group would be easy; a greaser, a hoodlum, a classic JD. He’s like any other teenage boy you’d spot in Tulsa- a lean 15 year old with a concerning amount of hair grease slathered through his already patchy buzz cut, who’s trying to live up to his brother’s rep. Even if it includes hurting one else.

67': Tulsa'd

Got a hold: Greased

Family: Runs

Expectations: Great

Tulsa: Far away

Letter: Soda

Brother: Gold

Darry: So, Soda is no longer allowed to take the trash out at night.

Pony: Why?

Darry: Because I've caught him trying to train raccoons to fight five times in a row.

Soda, arms crossed and pouting: You'll be thanking me when the third raccoon battalion saves your ass.

Pony: There's no way he likes me back.

Johnny: Curly would throw himself in front of a moving car for you.

Pony: Curly would throw himself in front of a moving car for fun.

A wee bit of drawing practice

Sis: hey! Do you know wher-w, what are you reading?

Me: the outsiders.

Sis: what are you watching?

Me: the outsiders.

Sis: what are you listening to?

Me: ...the outsiders.

Sodapop: do you think I could fit 15 marshmallows in my mouth?

Darry: you're a hazard to society.

Ponyboy (not looking up from his book): and a coward, do twenty.

What if Ponyboy and Sodapop were younger. Soda would be in his sophomore year, and Pony would be in 8th grade (skipped his 7th grade year). Soda would come home and tell Pony all about his day, from girls to sports to studies. Soda would constantly tell him that when Pony gets to high school with him, Soda would show him around and teach him everything there is to know. But as Pony went into high school the following year, Soda had to drop out to help Darry with the bills. So, one of the things that Pony had to look forwards in school, just, disappeared. He tried once to bring it up with Soda, tried to tell him about when they were younger and how Soda would make that promise to him. "Really? Wow man, I can't remember a thing past freshman year." And Soda would get up and leave, probably going with Steve somewhere. Some part of Pony left him that day, but he couldn't place it on what caused it. Either the guilt of Sodas past and present and future, the saddness of his own future, the fear of being left behind, or the dread of knowing that things will never be the same- of never going back to when times were good. But if that didn't leave a mark, the glare that Steve sent Pony (a mix between 'don't try to follow us,' and of Steve knowing that soda just left his brother for him) definitely did.

Newsies, but make it set in 1960s Oklahoma.

Pony: after sandy broke up with soda, he told me to never date any girls ever.

Pony: and I took that personally.

'FAR AWAY FROM TULSA' from the outsiders

IS GIVING

'SANTA FE' from newsies

JUST LISTENED TO THE OUTSIDERS MUSICAL CAST RECORDING. IF I DONT GET TICKETS TO FLY TO NEW YORK AND WATCH IT ON BROADWAY, THEN IMA KYM.

It's sooooo good!!! The music hits differently. I have never heard a musical that's like, southern. Yeah, there's Waitress and all, but that's classic Broadway with a southern accent. THE OUTSIDERS, however, has like a popy style, but still has a twange, while still being very Broadway!!!!!
