thinking about how if darry hadn’t turned on soda, ponyboy might justve went to his room and cried. bc the thing is he thinks darry is being irrational but he knows how stupid he sounded he sounded saying he forgot (“It sounded dumb, even to me, when I stammered […]”)

up until this point, it’s a one sided argument all most. like in the musical i could argue (not very well) that pony eggs darry on the entire argument but in the book i think i’d say he’s more docile (?) meek (?? neither the right word but alas).

for example

“I ran home, trembling at the thought of facing Darry.”

“He was on his feet in a second. I stood there, chewing on my fingernail.”

““Where the heck have you been? Do you know what time it is?" He was madder than I'd seen him in a long time. I shook my head wordlessly.”

“It sounded dumb, even to me, when I stammered, "I... I went to sleep in the lot...”

“I didn't mean to." I pleaded with Darry.”

and then the most important part to this whole point i’m trying to make

“I felt hot tears of anger and frustration rising. "I said I didn't mean to...”

darry’s been hollering at him the entire time and it took this long for pony to finally get frustrated and angry too and even still. even still pony doesn’t yell back. even still pony bites his tongue and lets his words fizzle out. bc it would’ve been real easy to shout it but he doesn’t.

he’s likely mostly frustrated with himself. because yeah ok darrel maybe he hasn’t been using his head as much lately, but he doesn’t know why. all he knows is that he’s been forgetting things more and more and he does things like fall asleep in the lot with nothing but a sleeveless sweatshirt and here’s darry yelling like pony did it on purpose. but he didn’t do it on purpose he didn’t mean to.

and pony gets it, he has been saying that a lot lately. he gets why darry is starting to get upset at the repetitiveness of it; pony’s probably tired of saying it himself.

despite all this pony wasn’t going to engage in the argument until soda spoke up. until soda spoke up and darry shot him down. bc for all intent and purposes, in pony’s mind that is, soda is one connection to this family. soda is the only hint that the family he knows and love didn’t completely leave him eight months ago. bc he hardly recognizes darry and he’s half convinced himself that if not for soda darry would throw him in a home.

so no “no one should ever holler at my brother” bc in his mind, in his puberty stricken mind that’s still grieving his father and older brother, sodas the only real family he’s got left.

I headcanon that Bob is really whiny and clingy when he’s sick, but only with Cherry. He acts tough in front of everyone else but the minute it’s just the two of them he’s all, “Cherryyyyyy, I don’t feel good. 🥺”

does anyone get that feeling when they have this oc/character theyre obsessing about and they want to yap abt them to their friends ahhashskhhjaak

(yes this is me asking for permission to yap to you abt my oc.)
