I Love When I Stare Out Of The Window Stuck In My Own Paracosm While Maladaptive Daydreaming And Someone

pony, johnny and dally have dined and dashed before. in fact, i think the whole gang has at least once, even darry.

marion kennedy.

marion kennedy

“i'm marion, but my friends call me mari” everyone calls her mari, actually. she doesn't really like being called "marion" that's reserved for her oldest brother or father.

full name leak: marion aurora evangeline kennedy. her father wanted to name her prunella. thank GOD for her mother.

march 9 !! pisces <3

she's super popular at her school, at least with the Socs she knows everyone and everyone knows her.

her schedule looks something like this: AP English, AP World History, AP Latin, AP Physics Electricity & Magnetism, Chamber Choir, Chamber Orchestra, Gym.

doesn't have a math class because she has already taken all the possible courses.

she's in a shit ton of clubs and extracurricular activities. theater, cheer, madrigals, piano, cooking club, drama club, gardening club, student council, babysitter, ballet, ice skating, mandarin, competitive dance, girl scouts, model un, NHS, yearbook committee, & mock trial.

captain of the cheer team !! president of the student council !!

she's genuinely so overwhelmed

okay let's go to modern times for a second: she is a social media FIEN. (i'll make a post on it)

okay i'll probably make a part 2 i have too much to say but i feel like this is too long.

I HAVE SO MUCH TO SAY ON HER BUT I DONT WANNA MAKE THIS TOO LONG !!

Things Sodapop Curtis dreams about at night

Horses!

He and Darry are in a pie-eating contest but the pies turn into chocolate cake and Darry turns into a goat

A wall full of blue ribbons

Ponyboy’s drawings come to life like a television cartoon—they dance and sing and everything!

He’s alone in the house, walking from room to room in search of Darry—he can hear his big brother’s voice, always just behind the next door, but can’t find him.

He owns a horse!

Drag racing with Steve, except the race never ends, and they just keep going and going, windows down, wind in their hair, hearts alive.

Mickey Mouse bites him. He laughs, and bites back.

Ponyboy is blazing, burning up like a 4th of July bonfire. Funny thing is, Soda can’t see it happening—he smells it though, ash so thick it clogs his mouth, choking him. He wants to yell, but there’s too much smoke in his throat.

Soda is alone in the house, walking from room to room in search of Darry. He can’t find his big brother. His big brother is gone.

The room is dark, he’s five years old, and his mother sings while stroking his hair.

Dallas Winston crumples beneath a streetlight. Over and over again, on repeat, but each time the puddle of blood gets bigger, until Soda drowns in it.

He doesn’t have a mouth, it’s gone right off his face. It feels so real that when he wakes, he spends an hour in silence, until he remembers he still has a tongue.

The high school principal and his big, shiny belt-buckle.

Ponyboy and Darry are going at each other with switchblades. Soda tries to intervene. He can’t move. He tries to shout. He has no mouth.

Ponyboy and Darry kill each other in front of him; their bodies laid out, still and cold, on crimson train tracks.

The house is empty. He’s alone in the house. He hears their voices, but he can’t get to them. He’s alone in the house.

He’s alone.

Horses!!

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.
