    Summary

    The Curtis family has been a broken shard of what they used to be ever since the accident. Darry and Sodapop had stood over three grave markers at the funeral: two caskets holding the crushed bodies of their parents beside an empty nameplate labelled Ponyboy Curtis. It's been four years since he went missing from the scene of the railroad track. The case has been cold for just as long, and nearly everyone in Tulsa has lost hope of seeing the baby Curtis brother's face again.

    His gang has never lost faith, though, and it proves its worth on the Friday afternoon that Ponyboy Curtis, in all his presumed-dead glory, knocks on the front door like he's not allowed to simply walk in.

    Summary

    A few weeks after Bob Sheldon, Johnny Cade, and Dallas Winston die, they make an unexpected return. Ponyboy is the only one who can see them, and for some reason, they're stuck to him, unable to move on.

    As Pony tries to hide this from the living people in his life, things become a lot direr when it becomes clear that these three ghosts aren't the only entities that Pony's unstable grief has manifested.

    Summary

    “Oh, what the fuck?” both she and the strange boy breathe out at the same time. 

    Natalie groans, rubbing her eyes. “I’m too high for this,” she grumbles. 

    He points at her, almost accusingly. “I’m not,” he says.

    “Gold star to the hallucination, then,” she deadpans, pinching the bridge of her nose. The shock of knocking over the pot sobered her enough that she feels less like she’s floating through time, but clearly she’s still tripping on something if she’s seeing him now. 

    That, or it’s not the fault of the drugs. But she’d rather not consider that possibility. 

    “I’m not the hallucination,” he says. “You are.”

    Or: Five times Natalie meets the Gabe that could've lived, if she hadn't.
