Life Imitates Art

i love twttin because for the second year in a row a hit has been put out on ponyboy because a girl wanted to talk to him. i also love the idea of him coming home from the dance and being like "hey guys. don't freak out but angela shepard tried to kill me tonight." and then hanging out with curly the next day like it never happened. because what does curly have to do with all that? my compartmentalizing king.

Dissecting him into a group would be easy; a greaser, a hoodlum, a classic JD. He’s like any other teenage boy you’d spot in Tulsa- a lean 15 year old with a concerning amount of hair grease slathered through his already patchy buzz cut, who’s trying to live up to his brother’s rep. Even if it includes hurting one else.

THE SHEPARD!! I made this for the pfp of the adk account:333

she's Kate Moss and she's a rockstar trapped in a supermodel's body

This is insane

Mrs. Curtis first meeting Dally: "Say 'please'"

Dally: "I never say please!"

Except it cuts to their deaths, after everyone has gone, there's Dallas begging at her grave once he can be by himself, uttering please over and over, wanting to talk to her one last time

Curly Shepard headcannons right now

Oh my fuck where do I start

Putting ts under the cut or whatever it's called so the hoard doesn't rage at me

Well the first one is that Curly is his legal name bc Tim knew that he and Angela were gonna be twins but he was planning for two girls, so he had Angela's name picked out already but when Curly showed up he just stood there like 🧍‍♂️. looked at his hair and then named him Curly the rest is history

Oh yeah and he and Angela are twins and he's older by two minutes but everyone thinks it's Angela who's older because he doesn't act the most mature (he's immature as FUCK) but he likes rubbing it in Angela's face

AUDhd, definitely hyperactive and inattentive but it's the 60s so his dad just said he was too stupid and decided to homeschool him and that ended with him getting beat more often than not

He helped Tim kill his dad the day that things got out of hand, and honestly to this day he's had no qualms about it whatsoever since he'd never seen that man as a father more than he did a beast.

Curly's extremely sensitive about his hair because hes always sort of associated touch with pain, especially because his dad didn't know how to take care of his type of hair, he'd fuck him up in the bathroom after getting frustrated with the tangles and knots and curls. Tim took over the hair routines for Curly and Angela once he found Curly alone in a bubble bath with bruises and a comb stuck in his hair unaware of how long his little brother had been in there

Curly drinks, not as much as Angela does, but certainly enough for it to be concerning. He's only really able to regulate how much he drinks because it reminds him of his father, the things he'd do while drunk.

He's liked Ponyboy since they were young but he's also the kind of little shit to bully him because he likes him. Like he'd dump ice down the back of his shirt and run off and throw sticks at him but then the two became friends and eventually boyfriends though curly went fucking crazy when pony dated Cathy btw.

He won't ever admit it but he despises it when he's alone. He hates being alone more than anything, it's why he starts as many fights as he does. You'll never find Curly alone, he's always trailing someone or hanging out with his friends or with Angela

He is such a fucking tattletale man and I'm pretty sure this is canon bc he told on Dally to Tim about his tires. Tim knows basically anything Curly knows so the few months where he wouldnt tell Tim about ponyboy it was kinda concerning

He is the funniest and whiniest mf when he's injured like someone will dial the shepard house phone like hey can curly hang out and he'll be like no but i can sit the fuck down and wait for you to come over and people will get mad at him for the obvious attitude but he won't give a flying fuck bc he'll point out that he's injured and whine abt it so Tim and Angela are just stuck with the nuisance taking up the couch and milking the injury as long as he can

When its actually serious though, Curly would ignore all his injuries if he wants to go to a rumble, or if Tim needed help, or if the gang needed help

Uhhhh I'm sure i have more somewhere but you can just ask me specifics I really don't care I'll answer any asks as long as they're not weird

fricking peak

it won’t let me put all of them in one post so I’ll just reblog with the rest but HERES THE OUTSIDERS FRUTIGER METRO ART!!!
