Ok but like imagine if you will: disabled veteran Sodapop and Two-bit becomes a part time caretaker for him... yes...yes..
au where darry and soda are adults when their parents die n ponyboy is still a little kid... (hc under the cut)
All of Pony's fifth grade classmates ate lunch with their parents at one time or another. They'd skip to the lunch room holding Mama and Daddy's hands and Ponyboy would bury his face in his tray so no one would see him cry. Snot nosed ten year olds would ask him why his parents never showed up. He didn't know how to tell them that his Mama and Daddy were sleeping under cold dirt.
One night Ponyboy comes home from school, teary eyed and deflated like a birthday balloon that's been kept too long. Soda rushes to help put away his backpack and take off his shoes, (which he was much too old for now, really) and sees his wet ruddy cheeks and scoops him up like he's still a little fawn.
"Pone, what's wrong baby?"
Pony sniffles all pitiful. "All the other kids get to each lunch with their parents. And I-" He wails.
"I have to eat all alone!"
Soda's pretty brows scrunch and he coos and sways his baby side to side. Darry appeared like an answered prayer, leaning over Soda's shoulder to wipe the salty tears from their little brother's cheeks. Darry makes a promise right then that he'll make it to lunch with Ponyboy no matter what.
"I'll be there tomorrow honey, I swear it." Darry says with staunch absolution.
The next day, Ponyboys sitting in the lunchroom on the squeaky little chairs, playing with his green beans and feeling just awful. He glances to the doorway like clockwork every minute, waiting for Darry to show up. Probably five minutes pass, and Pony's heart is smarting fiercely and he's losing hope when the double doors fly open. Darry rushes in, all sweaty and dusty from work, smiling in a way that's reserved only for his brothers. Ponyboy flies out of his seat and shoots to Darry's chest like a bullet.
"Told ya i'd make it." Darry whispered into his slick hair.
The other kids are staring frog -eyed now.
"Is that yer Dad, Pony?" Some yellow haired girl shouts.
He preens pink under his big brother's arm, puffing his chest out. "Yup. Sure is."

Well I do now!
Something something pity the backseat
Completely forgot to post this, but I had an art project about taking two things you like and combining them, so I ended doing a character lineup of the outsiders! (I said my theme was animation and literature lmao)
I’ll probably do the socs next, but I ain’t exactly itching to draw Bob 😒 (if bob has no haters I’m dead)
I can’t really say I “redesigned” the logo, I just adjusted the current one but what the hell ill put it here anyway
Darry def has this picture framed and hung up in the living room
R.I.P Two-bit Matthews, you would’ve loved The Dinosaur Train
No because why is Two-bit so important to me. I want him to be as happy as humanly possible, he’s so adorable for no real reason. I love him so much I think my brain is melting.
Dally: -JUST SHUT UP
Twobit:
Dally: Im going to kill the next person i fucking see, i swear to god-
Johnny *walking in*: Hello! Hi! Im so happy to see you!
Dally: Heyyy, omg....
