Summary
“Curly!” Pony protests, looking down, now grieving the loss of yet another cigarette.
“You ever dance to Mexican music?” Curly says cockily, grinning with that same expression that pulled Pony under in the first place.
Pony struggled lightly against Curly grip, groaning. “Curly, I just wanna smoke my cancer stick,” he says, throwing his head back.
———
Curly shows Ponyboy how to dance.

But that’s because he’s getting put in the wrong kinds of fights. They think he’s a hammer, when really, anyone who grew up BFFs with Carol becomes a scalpel.
(Dustin gapes like a fish. “Holy shit, dude…” Steve would chide language if he thought it would do anything. “You just performed real life Vicious Mockery. I think that guy took psychic damage!”)
~~~
Or: someone thinks he’s tough shit and is messing with Steve’s kids. Cue the Boss Battle Music. Mama Steve rips the guy to shreds, as he should.

Summary
After fifteen long years on this earth, six months seems negligible, in the long run. Finney Blake survived six months in literal hell, and it felt like an eternity he wouldn't escape. But he did, and now he's here, in a new town after being uprooted by his deadbeat father. Finney can take a punch, he's learned from bullies; but to throw a punch, he learned from necessity. He knows he's strong from the shit he went through, and some stupid school bullies aren't going to cow him now. He's just gotten back up to a healthy weight for fuck's sake, he's not going to let some dumb-looking kid wearing a bandana as a headband ruin his high school experience.
Who even is Robin Arellano?
