Paul Holden - Tumblr Posts

catified paul holden for the lovely @crow2222 !!!!!!!!!! hes funny. i think.
More miscellaneous headcannons that have been rattling around my head:
- Darry’s a slightly taller and a little more lanky compared to Paul who’s broader and a little shorter than Darry.
- Darry and Paul were always doing something equivalent to a Jackass episode in high school. They’ll both have ungodly dad lore.
- Johnny sometimes goes to the Curtis house really late, like 3 or 4 in the morning and scares the shit out of whoever’s unlucky enough to find him first. Pony goes to get a glass of water and just sees 👁️👁️ in the darkness and screams.
- Steve and Evie are the most disgustingly affectionate couple to be around. Soda and Sandy were fine but those two are always staring lovingly into each others eyes and it makes the gang sick.
- Dally pronounces marry, merry, and Mary differently bc of his accent (yes I’m projecting with this one but I think it’s cool, I only noticed that I do it bc my friends kept pointing it out). He says meh-rry, mah-rry, and may-rry.
- Two-Bit sometimes brings his little sister around and she absolutely loves the gang. They host a big game of hide and seek or tag with as many people as they can find (they usually drag the Shepard’s into it) and just go for it.
- Angela and Evie are best friends, they’re always doing each others makeup and hair and just wandering around together bc they’re some of the only girl greasers around.
- Darry actually has a lot of fun at his roofing job. He likes his coworkers and considers them all good friends. When he gets home he’s just overstimulated from a long day of social interaction and usually he’s sore from actually doing work.
- Pony can never get jars open by himself so he has to ask someone else to do it, he swears that someone super glues the tops when he’s not looking (he’d be correct, but only once or twice. Soda was bored.)
- Johnny seems completely unaffected by the weather, like it doesn’t occur to him that it’s 98 degrees outside and he’s wearing jeans and a jacket.
- Curly’s the emotionally intelligent one in his family, it’s just something with the middle kid.
- Steve will randomly trip people for no reason other than shits and giggles.
- Soda’s really good at taking photos, like he knows how to get good angle, good at lighting, everything. He’s usually the one who takes any photos of whatever’s going on and they’re always good.
- Angela’s has really unsteady hands so she either gets Curly or Evie to help her paint her nails.
- Two-Bit isn’t very good at keeping secrets. He’s always talking and something he wasn’t supposed to say just slips out and he’s like ‘oops’.
- All of the Curtis’ cry laugh for some reason, so obviously it must be genetic.
- Soda was really fascinated by rocks when he was a kid, he still is but he’s a little more secretive about it now. Pony and Darry know and try to give him sometime cool every once in a while, like moss agate or tourmaline.
- None of the gang is good at giving gifts to each other so they all act like cats and leave the gift something they know the person will find it and hightail it.



Darry and Paul 2.0?
…
Okay I just had to make another outsiders OC- couldn’t help it 😭
If it wasn’t already obvious, I made him the little brother of Paul Holden, I wanted to make like a repeat of Darry and Paul being buddies in the past with Keith and Ponyboy almost like a next generation thing, but better since they keep their friendship 0:
Some short info:He loves football but not as much as science, wants to focus more on biology in the future since he feels like he’s forced himself to want to play football for his future, he loves football, just doesn’t want to do it for his life. Unlike Nancy, Keith is like every other Soc, he’s actually semi popular among the socs, but in the end he realizes being a jerk is not for him, at first he didn’t care but after seeing some jumping of greasers and such, he kinda felt like it was unnecessary, and didn’t like the fights/rumbles.
He actually has a good life until he decides to make a change because he doesn’t want to keep up the life he has anymore, since he’s dealt with fake friends, and distrust among his own gang, sending his social fame in school kinda go down but not completely.
Paul and Keith would have some issues, and Keith wants to hate his older brother, but deep down he can’t fully or he feels confused/conflicted because they had a decent relationship, and I don’t doubt Paul Holden wouldn’t be happy about a family of his being friendly, or bumping shoulders with greasers. In short he’s got brother issues 💀
He’d become friends with Ponyboy after some weeks/maybe months after his change in a way, they’d be best buddies, he’d probably like to hang out with pony and Johnny when he could, try to protect him them from the other Socs if possible.
He would not like Steve either, thinks he’s dramatic and thinks Two-bit is cool/Tuff, as well as soda pop. I could see him being Ex friends with Bob and Randy.
Alright, I’ll draw more of Nancy and him soon,and Ponyboy! Though the height chart will come first, alright that’s all I got for this moment.
🏃♀️
both parry and darbit are canon in my mind but its like
paul is like darry’s first mlm canon event where it ends terribly and was mentally abusive
and two-bit is his happy ending where he gets to actually heal and be loved
