A'ight so I like the idea of Johnny and Dally still bein' perfect boyfriends in death. Like-
- “Your forehead's bleeding again..”
- Dally has no choice whether he lets Johnny try and stop him from bleeding or not because Johnny'll not stop trying.
- Johnny just sitting and watching Steve and Sodapop, smiling a little and giggling every so often.
- Dally next to him half the time, saying something like “Come out already, it's obvious.” randomly.
- Johnny snickers a little and will sometimes just burst out laughing if he doesn't expect it at all.
- No one knows if Dally does it to make Johnny laugh since he barely will on his own, or because he is genuinely wanting to see his ship come true. Not even himself.
- “Johnny you know you shouldn't lay on your back like that”
- “stfu I haven't popped my spine in like a year, you crack your knuckles every ten seconds you should understand”
- “I know I'm covering your eyes.”
- “Away from where you were before”
- “That bich Bob's there”
- Johnny wasn't really sure if it was for his own sake, or for Dallas', but he wasn't complaining.
- “Watch the sunset with me and Pony, Dally. Please? Give it a try?”
- “Fine. How is he supposed to know we're there with him?”
- “I think he'll just have a feeling. Hopefully..!”
- Johnny's more talkative and a little happier now, but can't get rid of the PTSD.
- ^ Dally loves him so much more, he missed how Johnny used to act and seeing him like that made him ecstatic.
- Johnny sometimes has trouble breathing, and Dally has a panic attack tryna help him even though it's just a side effect and nothing will really come from it
- Unless it's triggered, no one is in pain. For example, if you bled out because your hand was cut off, you wouldn't be in pain unless you touched that area or moved your arm the wrong way.
- You can visit your friends & family, but of course they can't see you.
- ^ Johnny'll sometimes go to his folk's house and get super sad at realizing nothing's really changed
- ^ Dallas obviously will do everything in his power to comfort Johnny, and will go on to try and terrorize his parents by doing ghosty shit after.
- Dallas was/is super, super gentle with Johnnycake because he doesn't want to hurt his back or his neck.
- ^ Johnny doesn't care that much and almost missed the rough Dally, but is alright with it.
- Johnny is still real sensitive about the whole killing a guy thing. Like, to the point of silence and tears.
- ^ Dally forgets this A LOT so he will tease Johnny, but is really apologetic.
- Johnny'll sometimes randomly burst into tears late at night/early in the morning, but will try to be quiet since he can't really control it and he doesn't want Dallas to worry.
- ^ Of course this doesn't work and Dally will s h o w e r his husbando with love an affection till he can tell him what it is this time.
- ^ Sometimes it's about his parents, sometimes Ponyboy, sometimes Robert, sometimes just random things he wish he could have said or done, sometimes things he wish he'd changed.
- Dally gets them too sometimes, but he just resorts to telling Johnny he has to go take a piss, then hiding out somewhere.
- ^ Johnny knows the act by now and will just wrap his arms around him and say “you can tell me y'know..”
- ^ one time when Johnny did this, Dally wasn't using an excuse. And that makes him anxious to do it again
- Dally can keep secrets from everyone but Johnny, and all it takes is gentle, but directness. He seems strangely compliant, but he just can't lie to him.
- Dally'll randomly start bleeding sometimes and Johnny is always on the lookout for bloodstains whenever Dallas turns awkwardly or something so he doesn't get blood everywhere.
Alright this is getting long I'mma cut it here
