Soda and pony like thrifting (it’s like the one thing soda can focus on for long periods of time, it’s also how they get clothes that are decent quality without spending 8 billion dollars)

Soda wears sandals 24/7 (he wears shorts in the winter bc he “doesn’t like the way sandals look with pants”) (Darry is ripping his hair out)

darry will send pony those “white boy, why” horse picture things (iykyk) to tell him stuff instead of communicating like a normal person

6-7 was such a problem in their household that Darry banned it from being said while on the property

yes this means that two-bit stood on the sidewalk and screamed it at like 7 in the morning once

Ponyboy vapes (though in this universe he’s actually less of an addict bc Darry/CPS would NOT be happy if they found out so pony js doesn’t tell him. Therefore he cannot js take a hit whenever he wants so he’s actually got some sense of self control)

dally will bully pony for vaping and then turn around and light his 87th cigarette of the day

pony and Johnny hide the stuff they don’t want the gang seeing in the lot (it’s mostly js vapes)

two-bit, soda, and Steve play steal a brainrot religiously

pony likes grow a garden

pony uses Duolingo bc he’s bored and kinda js doesn’t tell anyone (he’s got like 12 courses that he either quit after like one lesson or simply forgot abt, he’s pretty far along for like 2 of them tho)

pony and curly care more abt their snap streak then life itself

curly is absolutely addicted to monsters (he drinks like 5 a day)

curly listens to the most heinously freaky music you’ve ever heard, examples include MSI, Limp Bizkit, Odetari, etc.

pony likes Radiohead/The Smiths (projecting my music taste onto him :D)

Purly pulling a 2000s teenager and sneaking thru each others windows at like 2am (curly has accidentally stepped on soda while doing so whoops)

the Curtis gang has nerf gun battles (blood will be shed.)

the first time Darry heard good luck babe all he could think of was Paul and he cried a little

pony and curly go on Omegle at like 3am at sleepovers (you can decide how you think that goes for them)

"𝐏𝐨𝐧𝐲, 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐫!"

"𝐒𝐨𝐝𝐚, 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠!"

"𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐲, 𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐞!"

Meanwhile their father..

Cherry is 'the soc who tells all of the other socs secrets'

Curly is 'the hood from the shepherds gang'

Mark is 'the drug dealer'

M&M is 'the baby of the group, but the others will beat your ass if you so much as touch him'

Johnny is 'the softest one of the gang, but he is the leaders favorite'

Ponyboy is 'the leader, he has the. All wrapped around his finger'

Angela and Curly will lose their shit if anyone other than Tim touches their hair, especially Angela and ESPECIALLY if they just got it styled.

I also feel like Curly would be tenderheaded.

I also think Tim can only really do his siblings' hair or people with the same or similar hair types because it's just so different. Like the idea that a member of Tim's gang with straighter hair asked if Tim could do his hair and Tim just stares because he's used to working with like 3b-3c hair and he just doesn't know what to do with straight hair.

Especially if Tim has been cutting and styling Angela and Curly's hair for years and he knows what they like, they're predictable and consistent, he's basically got styling their hair down to a science.

Every time Ponyboy and Mark even slightly hold hands he just goes: "First My Girlfriend Now My Brother! JUST STEAL MY NAME AT THIS POINT CURTIS!"

Pony: omg what happened to you?

Someone in the gang, could be any of them needs something so bad and they know Mark got some of the good stuff so they reluctantly go to him and gets some. Next thing Pony knows the whole gang is like "Pony wheres the blonde friend of yours?"

"pones you should invite over Mark for dinner."

"Let Mark know he's welcome to sleepover anytime."

"Hey pony you want to come with us? Bring that Jennings guy too."

Thats just the cutest thing in my mind. Also, Dallas would probably not approve of his drug dealing younger brother hanging out with Pony.

"Where did you take Pony? Did you take him on one of your deals?"

And Marks standing there with the biggest cotton candy cone after hijacking the cotton candy machine: We went to the fair?

Also ponys friends in my mom will always be the breakfast club and Dallas and Tim are impressed that they were able to make detention such a good time while Darrel is horrified.

Downside? Bryon hates Dallas because in his mind Dallas isn't Marks real brother because he was never there, Bryon was. Dallas doesn't care really, but Mark, out of respect for Bryon never calls Dallas his brother. Only of people ask he tells them they have the same father.
