“You still have a lot of time to make yourself be what you want.” — S.E. Hinton, The Outsiders ⸻ Introduction Hi there! I’m looking for a few dedicated partners who share my love for The Outsiders and the characters that make it so timeless. My favorite stories to write are full of found family, a little angst, and slow-burn romance, all set against the backdrop of small-town drama and loyalty that runs deep. Whether we’re exploring canon dynamics, adding original characters into the mix, or just breathing life into day-to-day gang shenanigans, I’m excited to create something meaningful and fun. ⸻ About Me as a Roleplayer - Style: Third-person, past tense, multi-paragraph to novella length - Frequency: At least a few replies per week — more when inspiration strikes - Tone: I love balancing heavy, emotional moments with light, humorous ones - Doubling: - Always happy to double up and play other greasers for your OC - Open to brainstorming so both of us get equal focus and development ⸻ Pairings I’m Looking For Here’s what I’m most interested in right now: - Emily x Darry – slow burn, lots of emotional depth - Beth x Dally – complicated, fiery, and vulnerable underneath - Steve x Soda – can play either role for this pairing - General gang plots – friendship, loyalty, conflicts, and slice-of-life stories If you have an OC, I’m happy to play other greasers (or supporting characters) to make the story dynamic and balanced. ⸻ Plot Hooks & Themes Here are a few sparks to get us started — all open to tweaking together: - Three Chairs, One House, No Escape A blizzard traps the Curtis house, forcing everyone into close quarters. Tensions rise, secrets slip, and unexpected bonds are formed in the storm’s aftermath. - Summer Blackout: The whole town loses power for several days. Bonfires, late-night talks, and chaotic group dynamics take centre stage. - Job Trouble: Someone takes on a new job (or loses one), and it ripples through relationships, causing conflicts, support, and growth in surprising ways. - Curtis House Christmas: Cozy, warm, and emotional — a holiday plot with room for angst, laughter, and love. ⸻ Expectations & Rules I like keeping things simple and respectful: - Be collaborative and communicate — plotting works best when we’re both invested. - Please tell me your age before we start plotting - Respect boundaries — no god-modding or forcing character actions. - Let me know if you need breaks or if life gets busy — I’ll always do the same. ⸻ Let’s Write Something Great If this sounds like your kind of story, feel free to send me a message! Tell me a little about your role-play style, which pairing or plot caught your eye, and we’ll start building from there. Let’s create something unforgettable — the kind of story that stays gold.
