Summary
Starts as Soda putting on a good face while having Issues, progresses to include all of Curtis gang and focusing on
friendships, trauma healing, found family, and (for some of them at least) romance. Fic is canon-complaint. Adult themes are present including abuse, assault, mental health/suicide, references to sexuality.IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR ONE-SHOTS, the following chapters can be read as stand-alone with Curtis brothers and gang: 11 (Darry's birthday), 17 (Darry comforts Soda in a depression), 40 (first half-Pony and Soda at cemetery), 49 (Two-Bit comforts Soda with only a brief OC mention), 59 (Darry breakdown), 107 (Soda/Darry grief), 124 (Ponyboy and depression). Several other chapters not listed could also be read as stand-alones but do contain OCs.
I ACCEPT SUGGESTIONS/PROMPTS if you have an idea and I can figure out how to write it in, the story is not preplanned.

Found In The Wreckage by Izzyvalentina43

Summary
Steve Randle sat on the curb of a gas station not too far from the Curtis house. He was originally there to buy something for his eye, a cold Pepsi or even just ice, but the worker was quick to kick him out. Steve didn't even have the energy to punch the guy in the throat.
For a moment tears brimmed in his eyes before a rough voice shot through his ears like a bullet.
"You better not start bawling Randle"
Steve didn't even have to look up to recognize his voice.
Timothy. fucking. Shepard.
He had that underlying anger to him just like Dally, yet as he placed a Pepsi next to him Steve felt something he had felt one too many times with Darry. When he finally looked up at Tim, he was sat on the curb sporting a black eye just like him.
"Who?"
Tim didn't respond for a second he was a bit caught off guard at the sudden question.
"My best bud" Tim responded grinning wildly.
Surprisingly Steve grinned right back at him.
"Same here"
Or
Steve gets blamed for something that wasn't his fault and fights his best friend ending up next to Tim Shepard having an odd conversation with matching black eyes and poor Ponyboy being right in the middle of this.

Summary
This is my first fic, so i'm still working my way around A03 but i'm working on it.
Written with alternating perspectives (Third person) and will have flashbacks and time skips. (Will try not to make it confusing, i'll label each chapter in the notes if it's past, present or both)
Not beta read, otherwise i'll never finish this.A semi fix-it? It's a slow-burn Darlas fic because i realised there was pretty much nothing but oneshots with the two and they're lowkey my guilty pleasure...
Johnny dies. It's at the beginning, but he's obviously still a big part of the story, Dally lives (barely). It will be focused around Dallas and Darry, but the others are there. There might be a bit of mischaractisation but i'm trying.

Summary
“Stevie… what happened?”
Steve considered lying. Considered sayin’ he got into a nasty fight. Say he was drinking and slammed his head against something. Say anything except the brutal and awful truth. But as he opened his mouth, he felt the exhaustion fill his bones and decided to just be honest
"My dad.”
"Oh, love…”
