°˖➴ Rough bars were dotted all over Tulsa, and this one should be no different. Apart from these 7 boys who seemed to be regulars there with slicked hair and handmade bikes from old scrap material that seemed to live outside the packed place.

CAST
the gang
⊱ ۫ ׅ ✧ Darrel Curtis - the stoic one
ꪆৎ Barely leaving the pool table, Darrel was always hanging around when he wasn't working. The only one here who seemed to have a job, his bike was usually on the back burner. But when he could finally get away, he really let free.
⊱ ۫ ׅ ✧ Two-bit Matthews - the jokester
ꪆৎ With a beer always in his hand, Two-bit knew everything about everyone in this place due to his overly friendly demeanour and nosey behaviour. His friends and bike were his passions, the alcohol was just there to fill the time.
⊱ ۫ ׅ ✧ Dallas Winston - the wild one
ꪆৎ Never seen away from a cloud of smoke, Dallas was the one to 'crack up' on his bike. The police trailing him and a courtroom being his second home seemed to only fuel his cocky nature.
⊱ ۫ ׅ ✧ Steve Randle - the mechanic
ꪆৎ The most important member of the gang, Steve seemed to be an unsung hero in ways. The one who would gather the parts, put them together and do free repairs for his buddies. That's just what friends do.
⊱ ۫ ׅ ✧ Sodapop Curtis - the movie star
ꪆৎ Handsome, charming and a bundle of fun, Sodapop always had a lemonade in hand and energy buzzing of him.
⊱ ۫ ׅ ✧ Johnny Cade - the quiet one
ꪆৎ Not being one for words, Johnny just hangs about for drinks and shelter. Once you get to know him, turns out there is a lot more to him than you originally think
⊱ ۫ ׅ ✧ Ponyboy Curtis - the baby
ꪆৎ Only being let in because of his brothers, Ponyboy can barely even clean a bike, never mind riding one. But he is slowly learning, thank god for his friends.
Readers
⊱ ۫ ׅ ✧ Photographer! reader
ꪆৎ Born and raised in Tulsa, you had always stayed away from these parts of town. But, when the final project for your photography class comes around, maybe it's time to see what really happens at these clubs.
⊱ ۫ ׅ ✧ Visitor! reader
ꪆৎ Visiting family was boring. Especially in a place where you had no friends. So, seeking some type of thrill, you spot a dingy bar with a row of motorbikes outside, and this seems like the perfect place.
⊱ ۫ ׅ ✧ Schoolfriend! reader
ꪆৎ The only girl brave enough to be seen talking to a greaser, Ponyboy had taken a shine to you. And when he invites you around to a bar to hang out with him and his friends, it seems like a good place to really understand what the other side gets up to. Especially when you start to become a regular...
⊱ ۫ ׅ ✧ Interview! reader
ꪆৎ You get interviewed for the photographers book, its finally time to share your perspective.
Special Guests
⊱ ۫ ׅ ✧ Cherry Valance & Marcia Meyrink - the bar girls
ꪆৎ Two best friends who wanted to work together, harmless, right? Or maybe it was where they were working, searching for some excitement away from their nice homes and rich boyfriends. Working the bar isn't the only thing they get up to, how could they pass up a quick ride?
