Summary: small gifts you’d give and how they’d react. How they’d react if you apologized for a gift being small

Authors note: I had a little bit of a struggle grasping Steve and Pony’s character 😔 I’m sorry. I also don’t write any romantic stuff for Ponyboy. Reader is written as a sibling or gang member for Ponyboy’s headcanons, all the other characters’ headcanons are romantic

Johnny Cade

• The first time you gave him a gift, he was a bit suspicious. He was especially suspicious if you happened to be a soc. He hadn’t been sure if you’d had some sort of angle

• This boy loves anything you give him, His parents never bothered with gifts even the few times they could afford it, and gifts often came small and few on the greaser side of town

• Get him things like the fancier cigarettes, hair grease, a good lighter. Thrift a warmer jacket for him

• You once got him a lighter with his and your initials carved into it. It’s always in his pocket, the only one he ever uses

• He likes to hold onto the lighter in his pocket when he’s missing you

• He normally don’t like the initiate affection, so you probably won’t get a kiss, but he’ll hold your hand or hook your pinkies together. Being two queer boys in the 60’s, it wouldn’t be safe to initiate anything out in public anyway. He’ll shift closer to you on the couch if you’re in the Curtis house

• If you ever apologies for not being able to get anything bigger? He stares at you for a moment before saying he likes it and what are you talking about??

Dallas Winston

• He likes to act like he’s too tough to care when really, he’s got as much experience in receiving gifts as Johnny

• Patch up some of his clothes. Cloths get pretty torn up in a bad fight with a soc, and that sort of labor can be a great gift

• Steal a new blade for him, maybe even steal one from a soc as a trophy from a fight for him

• If he really appreciated it, he may steal something in return for you. But god forbid you act too excited for his liking, he’d blame you if anyone thought he went soft

• If you ever try apologizing for a gift being small, he’ll give you’d a look and tell you to shut up. He’s not the type to try to comfort you or something, but he’ll shut that down really quick

Darrell Curtis

• He appreciates most things you’d get him. He understands having a hard time scraping up the funds to buy gifts

• You once got him a few nice shirts you’d thrifts, and he’d been over the moon. He didn’t often get himself clothes due to the fact he was more focused in keeping his brothers alive. Practical gifts are the best type of gift when you’re poor

• If you drew him a picture? It’s hung up somewhere in his room

• Money is often tight in the Curtis home, but he’d have other ways to show his appreciation

• You’d likely get a “thank you”, and a kiss on the temple or lips

• Darrel is used to having to be the stern one in the house, so he’d shut it down fast if you ever apologized for getting something you thought was too small

• Pack that man lunch before he leaves for work, he adores it

Two-Bit Mathews

• He may tease you, but he appreciates it. He’s just so used to resorting to humor

• Steal a little Mickey figure or some stickers of the characters and he’ll rave about it for the next week

• He’ll definitely steal something for you in return

• You’re gonna get such an over the top kiss, purely so he can hear you laugh.

• He doesn’t get serious often, but he’ll get a little serious if you try to apologize for a gift being small

• If he’s drunk when you give something to him, he’s even more excited. He’s inebriatedly peppering you in wet kisses, he’ll have rubbed off the stench of his beer onto you

• If he’s too drunk, he may forgot that it’s not safe for two guys to be so affectionate out in the open, so you may have to get him off of you before people start to notice

Steve Randle

• You got him a miniature model of a car, one that you’d had to sneak into the Soc side of town to get from one of their snooty gas stations.

• He kissed you so hard when you gave it to him

• That toy car is treated like treasure

• If you ever tried to apologize that he wasn’t something bigger? He’s making it a point to brag about the gift to anyone in the gang who’ll listen, his cockiness is put to good use

Sodapop Curtis

• He loves it, he loves you. Soda is a certified lover boy. Whatever his boyfriend gets him, he will adore

• You found a collectible cap of a soda bottle that had been from a promotional thing once, someone must have dropped it. That man raved when you gave it to him, telling him that it reminded you of him

• If you’re somewhere where no one outside the gang will see, you’re getting your face covered in kisses

• Your getting pulled into a tight hug, maybe turned play-fight

• If you dare apologize that it’s small? He’s telling you how much he loves it and kisses you to shut you up

Ponyboy Curtis

• He appreciates it, but he’s also acting like a typical moody 14 year old

• If you give him some hand me downs? Well, it’s nice to get new clothes, but he’ll huff about to try to look tough

• You stole a book for him once and you could have sworn you were his favorite sibling/member of the gang for almost a month

Boyfriend! Kageyama who surprisingly asked you out first. It took a good few days of mustering up the courage (aided with some extra support from the team of course) before he could bring himself to ask to talk to you alone and finally ask that burning question he couldn't get out of his head, "will you be my girlfriend?".

Boyfriend! Kageyama who tries his best to balance his passion for volleyball with spending time with his sweet girl. You're having a rough time? TRUST he will 100% be dropping flowers alongside whatever snack you like at your doorstep after practice just so you know how loved you are.

Boyfriend! Kageyama who always remembers the little things, your favourite smells, what your body language means, what you're thinking when your eyebrows crumple ever so slightly and literally everything else. Kageyama knows you better than anyone and it shows; this boy spent so much time observing you purely so he could better understand you generally or even if communicating verbally just felt too overwhelming in certain situations.

Boyfriend! Kageyama who can't help but be slightly jealous of other people having your full attention. A classmate maybe making you laugh a little too hard or clinging to your side all day? He'll never admit to it out loud but the way his hand refuses to leave yours the entire walk home tells you everything you need to know, it might as well be his signature at this point. Thankfully all that boy needs is a kiss and it's as if nothing ever happened.

Boyfriend! Kageyama who's a sucker for physical touch when you two are alone. Any kind of contact with you brings him pure bliss whether it's cuddling, a quick kiss, or even just you laying your head on his shoulder during a movie, it reminds him how fortunate he is to be with you, especially during those soft moments.

Boyfriend! Kageyama who loves late night chats with you. Contemplating all sorts of thoughts like 'what will we look like when we're old?' and 'where are we gonna get married?' silly little conversations that make the two of you adore eachother even more than you thought possible, it's undeniable that there's a special connection you both share, one that will last until the end.

Tanjiro was just wiping his hands on his apron when he heard Zenitsu and Inosuke greeting the guests from the Butterfly Mansion. The counters and stoves were almost completely covered with pots and trays of food; a strange but very welcome scene in the former water hashira's kitchen. Often, it lay unused save for the sink, a few bowls, and a single pot, with the rest of the utensils and cooking implements collecting dust in cabinets and cupboards. According to Giyuu, they haven't been used since his parents passed, as he and Tsutako-neesan only had to cook for themselves.

"They're here!" Nezuko excitedly squeezed his arm, and she removed her apron and headband as she ran out the door. It was always a delight for her to see her older-sister figures, as well as the little girls under their care.

"Don't you want to go meet them too? I can take care of the rest here," Tanjiro asked Giyuu who was just scooping some broth into a ceramic tasting bowl.

"No, I'll help set up the table."

That was what he told him, but Tanjiro couldn't help but notice how he had been repeatedly counting the bowls, taking out serving trays, comparing them and putting some back, and then checking and tasting each dish.

"Is something wrong with the food?"

"Hm? Oh, no. They're perfect..." Giyuu bit his lips in a moment of hesitation, then he stammered what had been bothering him, "D-do you think we have enough?"

Tanjiro sighed and smiled reassuringly at him. "Giyuu-san, I won't be exaggerating to say that we can feed the whole Swordsmith Village."

The remark gained a smile from him. But his eyes were still quite troubled.

"Are you perhaps nervous, Giyuu-san?"

"Well..." Giyuu finally set the lid down on the miso soup. He rested his hands against the counter and sighed. "I've never hosted a dinner before."

Tanjiro hung his apron and patted his friend and former senpai on the back. "There's always a first time for everything! And the fact that you invited them? I'm already very proud of you!"

That gained another smile from him; this time, one that reached his eyes.

"As always, thank you for everything."

Tanjiro shook his head. "Don't mention it! Shall we bring out the food so we can start eating?"

The man nodded his head and rolled up his sleeves. "Let's go."

---

The spread on the dining table was nothing short of a feast, and the merry chatter around it only ever made the night more festive. Nezuko and the ladies of the Butterfly Mansion were dressed in their best kimonos, and the gentlemen in their choice outfits. It was very different from how Tanjiro remembered the place, with only Giyuu seated at the very center, eating his meal in silence. His heart filled with so much pride he almost teared up.

He could also see Giyuu's attempts at being a good host, never allowing the bowl of his former fellow pillar go empty... perhaps a little too enthusiastically...

The link preview thing isnt working but here is the promised Christmas fluff!
