Steve and Two-bit trying to pick up someone would be so funny (This somehow turned into headcannons oops) Requested(?)
Let me set the scene:
Two-bit and Steve are at the drive-in or whatever, drunk outta their minds with a beer or two in hand, and they decide to try and pick up a few women for the night
We all know Two-bit would be cracking the most foul jokes known to man
Remember the scene in the movie where he flips up that one girl's skirt? Yeah, he'd do that
If he was actually trying and not being a jerk, he'd try to make you laugh with his weird, scatterbrained humor, or offer to get you a Coke or something
If he succeeded in making you fall for him, we all know he'd be bragging about it to the gang
"Last night, I scored this real pretty person at the drive-in. They're totally in love with me now - even gave me their number"
He'd totally steal things for you
Maybe even admit he stole them

Steve on the other hand would probably try and impress you with the way he can work on cars or something
He'd probably yap to you, really
Probably would still crack some jokes, not as foul as Two-Bit's, though
He'd definitely brag about it too - mostly to Soda
"Hey Soda, I picked up this person last night - I'm plannin' on taking them out on a date this weekend"
Steve would try his best to make a good impression on the first date too
He'd want to definitely make sure Soda liked you if you actually started officially dating
Might take you out to the Dingo or something
After the events of the book, Two Bit’s jokes lessened and definitely got quieter until he sort of lost his spark :(
Steve constantly snaps at the gang after their deaths, and is super irritated all the time, to the point he’d start to distance himself
I think this would be canon post-book! Thanks for responding! And I feel like he might distance himself from the rest of the gang, and maybe even start to do the same with Soda.
i have this posted on my page but : i think the reason steve is super buff is so that he would be able to defend himself from his dad's beatings. if he were strong his dad couldn't hurt him so bad. he wanted to help johnny but he never got the chance and feels super guilty abt it
This is very interesting! I can definitely see this being canon, and thinking about him wanting to help Johnny but not being able to hurts in the best way possible. Thank you :)
”HEY DARRY, do you know where my DX shirt is?” Sodapop yells trying to wrap a towel around his waist as his two coworkers walk over to the bath room door.
You whistle teasingly as his towel starts to fall down again, Sodapop looks at you then to Steve “your supposed too wear pants too” he says smiling wiping cake off his mouth. “My pants too?” He shouts again toward his older brother. “Y’Know, Steve instead of getting on him for not wearing pants you should look for you own shirt” you smile at him looking at his chest
“But that’s why the DX gets business, you’re telling me you don’t show a little cleavage when you work the register?” He says leaning off the wall. Walking over to the door “course I do, but you don’t work the register today, Sodapop does.”
“Whatever, last one to the car rides in the trunk!” He says as him and soda start running.
