Soc September - Tumblr Posts

I had a headcanon in regards to Bob from The Outsiders, but I don't remember it which sucks, because I remember really liking it? But I don't remember what caused me to have it and I didn't write it down 😭

If I remember, definitely either editing or reblogging this with the headcanon.

Headcanons for Marcia

I sorta imagine her a bit like Two-Bit; she's funny, she cracks jokes, and she has a more mirror personality. However you treat her she'll treat you. Crack jokes with her and she'll crack jokes with you. I get the impression that she keeps everything light in the group (assuming that Cherry, Marcia, Bob, and Randy all hang out regularly together and with other Socs).

Its mentioned in the book that she barrel races as well, though I don't know much about that. And she's also really perceptive!

"Thanks," Cherry said, and the other girl, who was named Marcia, said, "How come we don't see your brother at school? He's not any older than sixteen or seventeen, is he?"

Also, I like to imagine her last name as like... McCarty or Summers or Evans or something really unique but not entirely well known. Either something really common or just completely unique.

I believe that she also really Liked Two-Bit, or at the very least wanted to get to know him. This one I just really like because I loved their back and forth banter at the drive in.

I also don't believe that she likes alcohol, like, at all. And she loves to read when she's alone, or, if shes not reading, she really likes art and she carries a sketchbook in her school bag for when she's bored.

Also, I read the Wiki on her just so I didn't get any information wrong (cause rn it's too dark to read much in my room), and I believe that she definitely capitalizes on a lot of opportunities offered to her. Like with the coke from Dally.

And also, reading the wiki mentions that she spotted Bob's car first, and was relieved when it went past them. And she gave Randy a cold stare but said nothing to him. It ties in that I believe she's really perceptive and I saw someone else say that her and Randy might not have liked each other romantically and they were only dating to spend more time with Cherry and Bob respectively.

Believe she also knows at least one other language, or learning another language actively, and she wears glasses. Maybe she doesn't need them all the time, or on some nights out she just doesn't bring them.

Also, she gives me the feeling that her birthday is like, in May, end of May almost. Maybe the 23?

Definitely also really flirty, even if it goes nowhere. Especially flirty with her friends too.

I really do think she gave Two-Bit her real number though, and was disappointed when he didn't call.

Sorry if some of these are bad, I base a lot of headcanons off of canon or at least I find reason for them from canon. Unless it's just something that wouldn't come up in canon.

Below is the description given by @socseptember (which I need to constantly remind myself who I was thinking about, it's a shame that we didn't see her more)

Marcia M. Marcia- A SOC girl with shorter black hair. She is best friends with Cherry and is not seen outside of the drive-in scene. She is very witty and has a flirtatious conversation with Two-Bit Mathews. Many have begun to ship them. She doesn't have a set last name nor really a visible personality.
