You Know, I Have The Feeling That Two-Bit Would Have Said That He Didn't Believe The Gang 'couldn't Loose

You know, I have the feeling that Two-Bit would have said that he didn't believe the gang 'couldn't loose so and so, anyone but them,' had it been them in Johnny's place.

Currently writing a Time Loop fic, and I have the distinct impression that Two-Bit would have said that regardless of it being Ponyboy, Johnny, or Dally.

... I've been reminded that I fucking adore Apocalypse aus.

So the Hybrid idea is shelved, in favor of an apocalypse oneshot series.

Made this as a joke when bestie commented her writing fairy must have visited me to get me to pump out 3K words tonight.

teen storm is just that meme of that kid saying "zeus strike me down if i'm lying" *thunder strikes and everyone yells* "didn't strike me tho!"

Is this a problem?

The Outsider's Shapeshifting AU

What would you all see the Curtis gang as if they could shapeshift into animals? I have some lore to my little au already built up, but I'm having trouble deciding on what animals they can turn into [everyone can turn into one (1) animal].

If you see I've assigned someone an animal you don't agree with, feel free to tell me! I'm open to suggestions for all the characters! Also, feel free to suggest any animals you want, so long as they are land or flight animals.

(I keep wanting to put 'deer' next to Pony, so nothing is too outrageous!)

Curtis’ Gang Animals

Darry Curtis - Dog

Two Bit Mathews - Bird or Bear (?)

Dally Winston - Cat or Fox (?)

Steve Randle - Dog or Wolf (?)

Sodapop Curtis - Cat

Johnny Cade - Cat

Ponyboy Curtis - 

Curtis Gang isn't the only group of characters I need help deciding animals for, just so people know!

Other Notable Characters to Know

Mrs. Curtis - Cat

Mr. Curtis - Dog

Tim Shepard - Cat

Curly Shepard - Cat

(they are the only two characters I know for sure of exist, because I really don't know who 'Angela' is? From fanfics I've read, I'm guessing Curly is a twin?)

Paul Holden - Dog

Randy Anderson -

Bob Sheldon - Dog (?)

Marcia -

Cherry Valance -

A '(?)' means I am unsure about if the animal chosen fits the character. I would like to choose an animal for everyone that fits the character but also adds to it. And empty means I have no clue on what animal to 'assign' them.

And for reference, I am going based off of the Book/Movie Characters as I have not seen the 'show' or the Musical, I also have not read 'That Was Then, This is Now'! I don't know the other Socs or greasers that some people talk about.

I'm also using headcanons, like I have the lists in 'age order', from both canon and how I perceive them, since we don't know a lot of characters birthdays

If anyone wants some of my current world building/lore:

Shapeshifters AU, maybe an Outsiders Fic, where everyone can ‘come into’ their animal that they can shapeshift into once they reach a certain age. Love the idea that certain circumstances would change when or how you shapeshift for the first time.

Example, Johnny, he's 16 and only shapeshifted (he's a cat) because he felt safe at the Curtis house.

Well fed, loved, cared for children typically get their animal at 10, 12 at the latest if they are late bloomers. So West side kids typically get their animal at 10-12 years of age. East side kids are all between the ages of 13-18 (18 being the absolute last chance you have to get your animals, once you reach 19, you are considered 'defective')

Most siblings are typically the animal, but obviously they all look different. Most people take after their parents, some maybe a grandparent or great grandparent. Rarely do they become an animal not already in the direct family tree (i.e. from great-great grandparent to great grandparent, to grandparent, to parent, to child)

Feel free to ask questions, whether in comments or in the asks box! I'm 100 percent open to conversation and debate and talking with people! (I don't have many outsiders friends).
