requested by ponybboy!!
- immediate fuckery
- thanks to soda, steve, and two
- steve notices….the indoor fountain
- “hey soda look this place has an indoor pool”
- two would deadass climb in and yell "HOLY SHIT SODA GET IN HERE”
- and when SODA climbs in: "NOW ITS A FUCKING SODA FOUNTAIN"
- “AND IT HAS MONEY IN IT???? COOL”
- darry knows that bringing all the boys here together was a bad idea
- homie just needs to shop for the house
- and tbh?? somethin special just for himself like a new shirt or working boots or something
- “GET THE FUCK OUT THE FOUNTAIN STEVE”
- “ AND SODA DONT U DARE”
- “TWO PUT UR FUCKING SHIRT BACK ON OR SO GOD FUUCKING HELP ME”
- “i can’t take you guys ANYWHERE”
- i know that darry FUCKING LOVES j.c. penney, target, macy’s and home depot (but since home depot is not at the mall, they have to make a stop after they leave the mall)
- “THERE IS A SALE ON IN MACYS IN THE HOMEWARE SECTION AND WE ARE NOT GONNA MISS IT"
- “THE FUCKING SALE IS OVER IN TEN MINUTES AND IM NOT MISSING OUT ON BUYING A NEW BLENDER FOR A GOOD DEAL OF 15 DOLLARS JUST BECAUSE U WANT TO SPEND UR TIME BUYING THOSE FUGLY ASS PRETZELS FROM THAT FOODCART”
- pony and johnny, at first, are sword fighting with tubes of wrapping paper at target
- this is while darry’s buying stuff for the house at home that seems to magically disappear when all the boys are at the curtis house simultaneously….. like sofa cushions????
- he doesnt know where they go or who takes them
- but he knows it’s annoying as fuck
- soda?? american eagle, express, j crew (if darry lets him)
- stocking up on ALL the high quality flannels
- STEVE WOULD KNOCK ON THE WRONG FUCKIG DOOR TO THE DRESSING ROOM THINKING IT WAS SODA
- if u leave stevepop alone, there’s a possibility that steve will drag soda to old navy, gap and target
- they’re probably building a paper towel fort in target
- and they try to stay overnight
- and everyone’s looking for them frantically
- dally……doesnt give a fuck
- kinda like darry?? as long as it’s cheap n practical
- has this unexplainable soft spot for hot topic
- two is just hangin at the foodcourt at first
- then he’s probably chilling at the store that presses the customizable shirts
- unashamedly bought the “thug life? drop the t and get over here” t shirt
- also unashamedly bought a “i like the sound you make when you shut up shirt”
- “darry every time i wear this just know it’s directed towards you”
- “which one?”
- “that’s for u to decide”
- “pls don’t hug me”
- bath and bodyworks??? yankee candle??? JOHNNY
- JOHNNY JOHNNY JOHNNY
- dally? shOPLIFTING & fuckn sleeping on the display mattresses
- after they get out the mall and get home johnny’s like
- “dally why does ur jacket look like that?”
- *opens jacket onto kitchen table*
- *17 candles roll out*
- “I WAS STOCKING UP ON WINTER CANDY APPLE OKAY??? ITS OUT OF SEASON ITS NOT LIKE THEYLL MISS THEM”
- “DAL WHY”
- “U SAID U LIKED THESE SCENTS AND FOR ME TO HOLD ONTO THEM”
- “YES MEANING ILL DECIDE WHETHER I WANNA GET THEM LATER”
- “DO U WANT THESE OR NOT”
- pony…. my dear boy…. he’s either deal-hunting in macy’s with good ol darry
- or he’s shopping at aeropostale or a&f
- and making hour long stops at hot topic
- two is SLIDING DOWN the escalator that goes down
- and soda is touching the hands of the people going down as he goes up
- two gets a shoelace stuck in the fucking escalator
- how much do u wanna bet
- that they accidentally leave pony behind
- like they’re all in the car, ready to go, bags in the trunk
- and then soda & johnny finally say something
- “wait”
- “where’s pony”
that’s for u to decide
