Summary
When the draft notice arrives on an ordinary Tuesday, Sodapop Curtis's world narrows to twenty-one days.
Three weeks to keep working at the DX. Three weeks to laugh with Pony, argue with Darry, slip into Dally's apartment after dark, and pretend the future still belongs to him. Three weeks before the government asks him to become someone else's soldier.
But war has a way of following people home.

Summary
Because how do you explain something that's been quietly growing inside you for months? How do you explain that somewhere between late-night conversations and bruised knuckles and stolen cigarettes, this person stopped being just another part of your life and became something woven into it?

Sodapop, This House Ain't a Home Without You by RunningOnSunshine
Fandoms: The Outsiders - S. E. Hinton
19 Jun 2026

Summary
Ten years ago, the Curtis parents died, leaving their three sons to the system.
Three years ago, Darry turned eighteen and brought Ponyboy home for kinship placement.
One week ago, Darry turned twenty-one, so he could finally begin the process of adopting Ponyboy.
For years, Darry has searched desperately for Soda, blocked by closed records, misplaced files, and every obstacle the system could throw in his way.
When a new caseworker enters Pony's life for the adoption process and Darry finally learns that Soda was adopted three and a half years ago and now goes by Patrick “Paddy” Collins—a boy with a new name, a new family, and little memory of the seven-year-old life he’d once had with Ponyboy and Darry, the Curtis brothers have to navigate reunion, heartbreak, and building up a relationship again with the brother they’ve been missing all these years.

Stuck in the Backseat by Anonymous

Summary
An unexpected customer rolls up to the DX, and it's a blindsided hit. Sodapop's life is no longer as carefree as he was used to, and he didn't have a clue where to start to get his freedom back.
What was he supposed to do when his confidence was destroyed? How could he continue to go outside and live when everyone had motives, and most of them weren't good? Maybe he was paranoid, but could anyone blame him?
His saving graces were his brothers and the gang. There were people he trusted surrounding him, and maybe they would know how to help him better than he could help himself.

Guilty Sons Beneath an Omniscient Sky by Maeve_Pendergast

Summary
Paul's face stares at him from the center of the page, his trademark toothy grin caught in a moment of reckless joy. Darry rolls his eyes, what great achievement has he accomplished now?
He glances up to the top of the page to see if this is the sports section or the general news. Maybe he got a scholarship, maybe he won a big game, could be either.
Tulsa World. Obituaries.
Another part of Darry's life is six feet under, but this one comes with its own terrible mix of emotions - anger, grief, guilt, so many others only Pony's books could describe. It feels like every piece of his past, the one where he was happy and free - is burning to the ground. Like death follows him.
