    Summary

    1919

    Darry’s finally home from his time in the Great War, but life doesn’t look like it used to for the Curtis brothers and their friends in the North End of Boston.

    The Spanish Flu stole their loved ones and left Pony and Johnny with lingering ailments. Darry’s suffering from the aftereffects of a war that killed his friends and left him traumatized, hardly able to work under the stress. Soda’s torn between his brothers in what seems like a constant battle at home. Two-Bit, Steve, and Dally are doing what they can to try and keep their friends afloat after what’s clearly been the worst year of their lives.

    Life’s not all bad with their lives on the harbor—they still have each other, after all.

    But even that safety is threatened when the molasses tank looming over Boston bursts, flooding the city and taking lives with it.

    Or

    The Curtis gang in the 1919 Great Molasses Flood.

    Summary

    Ponyboy is not an idiot.

    He knows he is disabled. He knows he can’t do everything everyone else can. Contrary to the belief of Darry, Soda, and the rest of the gang, he does actually care about his body. Pushing it sometimes doesn’t make him ‘irresponsible’ or whatever Darry said last time he was scolding him, it just makes him a little stubborn. And there’s nothing wrong with that.

    Despite all of this, Pony doesn’t want everyone to know that his leg is acting up again. It’s fine. He doesn't need to take a break from track or sit down for every single task. He just needs to walk it off.

    What the gang doesn’t know won’t hurt them.

     

    Or,

    After a run-in with a group of Socs, Ponyboy finds his disability to be flared up. He limps everywhere he goes and takes way too much pain relieving medication. However, he still tries to hide the injury from the rest of the gang. He doesn’t want to worry them like he always does.

    But even he knows that they’ll find out eventually, even if it’s in the worst way possible.
