    Summary

    “I’m fine,” Darry mutters again, but it’s even more hollow now, more useless. Soda’s still crouched at his other side, one hand steady on Darry’s wrist like he’s grounding him there.

    “No, you’re not,” Pony says, but there’s no judgment in it. Just truth. “And that’s okay.”

    Darry lets out a breath that sounds almost like a laugh, except it’s broken in half. He drags both hands down his face and then presses his palms into the edge of the table like he needs something to hold on to. “I ain’t ‘sposed to fall apart. Not in front of you two.”

    “Why not?” Pony asks. “We fall apart in front of you all the time.”

    A month and a half after the funeral, Darry’s doing his best to hold everything together. But the broken pipe, the long days, and one sharp argument with Ponyboy push him past his limit. When he breaks down in the kitchen, it’s his brothers who help him — quiet, steady, and refusing to leave. It still hurts. But they’re in it together.

    Summary

    "Darry? I'm gonna ask you a question and I really want you to answer honestly, okay?"
    His brother looked at him with tired ice-blue eyes and nodded once slowly.
    "If I ask you to promise me that you'll never do this again – is that a promise you think you can keep?"

    Ponyboy catches Darry self-harming.

    Summary

    The fact that Two-bit is standing in the office when he gets there does absolutely nothing to clear up the situation. Two-bit graduated-by the skin of his teeth, no less- last year. Two-bit is not supposed to be here. It certainly doesn’t help that Two-bit's mouth is pressed into a straight line instead of his usual dopey grin, and his eyes are dark and serious when he looks at Ponyboy.
    “Soda sent me.” He explains, his voice uncharacteristically sedate “Something happened to Darry.”

    Maybe one day, trouble will leave the Curtis brothers alone.
    Today is not that day.

    Summary

    The Curtis gang falls to pieces when Ponyboy, three of his track friends, and their assistant coach die in a freak van accident.

    What they don’t know is that only a few miles away, Pony lies in a hospital bed recovering with another family watching over him, completely oblivious to the fact that he has been misidentified as their son.

    AND

    Heavily inspired by the true story of Whitney Cerak and Laura Van Ryn, two university students whose identities were mistakenly swapped after a horrific van accident. Whitney’s family grieved for her and had a funeral. Meanwhile, Laura’s family was unknowingly at Whitney’s hospital bed for five weeks before realizing she wasn’t their daughter and that Laura was the one who had actually died.

    Summary

    Marius Dupain-Cheng always knew she was a girl, no matter how much the whole world told her otherwise. So when a strange little red creature gives her the opportunity to assume, even if only momentarily, her "true self", Marius gladly accepts.

    Soon, a new routine is established. During the day, she is a "strange" and reclusive student, a victim of bullying for being trapped in a body that never truly belonged to her. But at night, Marius takes on the mantle of Ladybug, the most famous and beloved heroine of Paris.

    However, as the years go by and the countless challenges to embrace her true gender identity persist, Marius begins to realize that Chat Noir's declarations of love might be much more than just simple flirtation.

    But what would Chat say if he found out that his Lady is a transgender girl? Would he be willing to love Ladybug's civilian form as well?

    Summary

    “Can we go get him?” Sodapop asked, pushing himself back to his knees as he put his hands on the couch. Even Darry had found himself wanting to go find Sodapop’s best friend so that they could do this ‘planned activity’.

    “I’ll go with him,” Darry offered before their mom could refuse Sodapop his request. “We can go get Steve and come back, we’ll be really fast!” Darry added, eyes darting towards their father hopefully. Both Curtis parents were thoughtful.

    “I suppose,” Their dad spoke, smiling as both Darry and Sodapop brightened up. Ponyboy had started getting fussy, and was beginning to cry and kick his feet like he did when he had headaches. “There wouldn’t be any harm in them going to get Steve. Darry can handle his brother on a walk, Sharon.”

    “Oh, alright. Go, but be fast.” Their mother smiled, brushing Pony’s hair back as he looked up at her with tears streaming down his face. “Oh, let’s get you some headache medicine, yeah?” Darry didn’t know what she did after that. He and Sodapop had just been excited to be able to go on this walk by themselves.

    Summary

    "Maybe they weren't meant to survive this. Maybe they weren't meant to survive Tulsa fucking Oklahoma, and they'd all be happier if they quit trying so hard. He'd thought of them as damned before, in bad moments, but he'd never really believed it until now. He'd never believed there wasn't anything they'd gone through that couldn't be explained away by being poor, by living in this shitty town, by something as terribly mundane as a string of bad luck and tough breaks. But what the hell did he know?"

     

    As Darry grows up, he must come to terms with what it means to be a greaser in Tulsa, and all the injustice that comes along with it—until the moment he realizes what he's fighting for all along.

    Summary

    Fury makes his blood boil, and without a third thought he swings the door open so viciously that it slams against the wall hard enough to rattle the walls and startle matching shouts and cries of shock from the bed.

    “Darry?!” Soda yelps, high-pitched and horrified.
    -
    “He should be scared. You both should be scared.” he hisses.

    He sees the way Steve bristles, muscles flexing as his hands clench into fists, “You ain’t gonna hurt him.”
    -

    Darry comes home early and finds Soda and Steve in a compromising position.

    Summary

    What if, in the time Ponyboy and Johnny were gone, the State called Darrel's guardianship into question, resulting in Soda getting taken away?
    -

    “No, no, no, Ms. Miller,” Darry splutters, gripping the doorframe for dear life, “Y-You can’t, you can’t take him-”
    “Until this situation has been resolved,” She ploughs over his pleading, “Sodapop will be placed in a boys’ home; It’s not too far, you can still see-”
    “Please, you can’t do this-”
    “This is for his own good, Darrel.”
