As Steve anticipates the upcoming anniversary of his most pivotal moments, he finds himself exploring the circumstances that contributed to his decisions. At the same time, he also takes a step further in exposing his childhood trauma for the horror it was, which leads to deeper spiritual questions that bring a concept he's never considered to the forefront.

With graduation only a few months away, Ponyboy Curtis is closer than ever to being able to taste freedom from Darry and the gang, but is that what he really wants? After attending a party, Pony stumbles upon something he wasn't meant to, and now he is not only haunted by a man who wants his blood, but by the guilt of lying to his family. (Previously titled Her Red Dress)

Sodapop Curtis was drafted into the war in Vietnam fall of last year, near when he turned 18. Darry and Ponyboy have been on edge ever since, and only 5 months later is the family greeted with news that would forever change the brothers and even the gang altogether.

When Ponyboy comes back from university, he finds himself in trouble. But not in trouble Soda or Darry can get rid of. He's really got into it now, and Pony doesn't know what to do.

Pretty Ponyboy Curtis, the youngest of the three Curtis brothers, was untouchable, mainly because of how territorial Darry and Sodapop were. Incest. PWP. Alternate universe - gangs.

One eight letter word changes their lives forever. Leukemia. Pony struggles to beat the disease. But through the struggle, he finds new friends, repairs old relationships, and learns what it really means to live. The bond between the gang is stronger than ever as they realize just how much they've taken for granted. Johnny and Dally are alive!

Ponyboy pays a visit to Curly in juvie. Curly is very happy to see him, but will the sincere affection they share be enough to change the fact that neither of them is in the same situation they were in months ago?

Darry wishes that he could take it back; everything, now that his little brother's swan song was a figment of the past. He wouldn't be able to say his name right for the next year. Choking out syllables as they aimlessly hit the floor.

Life doesn't simply go on when Johnny lives. Ponyboy has to contend with a very changed life — from the trial coming up, to being initiated into the greaser pack scene and a slow dance into a relationship with Dallas Winston. Has omegaverse dynamics and themes, ongoing fic. Backbone of "cause tramps like us are born to run" series.

When Ponyboy Adams comes across a young man, who is nothing but nice to him, he never anticipates his entire life to be changed. He was raised to expect the unexpected but this is beyond anything he ever imagined. Will he be sent back to his abusive father? Will he stay with the gang? What happened in the fall of 1962 that made him leave? Can he trust these strangers?

Curly goes to summer school, navigates a turf war, and tries to get his girl back, not necessarily in that order.

Jean Louise Hughes is Sodapop's close friend (bordering girlfriend). Jean and Soda had planned dinner in the next week, but then something happens and Jean is left with nowhere to go.

Cindy Winston makes a last-ditch effort of extending a hand to her brother. She just has to be sure he won’t take her whole arm with him.

Very few things got under Darrel "Darry" Curtis' skin, and on the off chance that something did, he didn't often let it show. If anyone wanted to get underneath his skin quickly, targeting his brothers would be the best way to go. Try as he might, Darry couldn't always keep his cool, collected mask on when his brothers were brought up, even in passing.

Ponyboy has a bad day but Darry buys him watercolors

1973. June Blue Thunder has a jailbird husband, a baby to raise, and bills to pay. A half-cooked get-rich-quick scheme from Curly Shepard is the least of her problems.

You wondered when the day would come that Steve would finally have enough and explode; the monster had been inching closer and closer to the surface for years.

Sometimes doing what's best for you, isn't always what's right. When Darry's parents pass unexpectedly he has a tough choice to make. Does he finish college or does he give up everything he's worked so hard for to take care of his little brothers? [Darry based AU]

Ponyboy runs away without Johnny, takes a stolen vehicle from someone who stole the vehicle, wants to go to New York, ends up questioning his whole life, and doesn't know what he's doing. Yet, will he go back? Or will he stay and truly become a stray cat? Inspired by the song- Stray Cat Selfie by Fty

An AU of The Outsiders where Johnny Cade is still Johnny Cade...but a girl. And she doesn't get caught in a certain burning church... Nobody dies and yes, there will be romance. Rated T 'cause I'm VERY paranoid.
