[align=center]"Is that all?" I ask, raising one of my eyebrows as we pull into the gas station. I'm uninterested in whoa actually won, knowing that bickering would likely break out at the very mention, so I'm going to assume it was Dally and be done with it... It probably was anyways. "Honestly, I'm more interesting than you guys, and all that I did was lay on the couch and eat an entire box of Frosted Flakes." I tease them with a playful grin, running my fingers through my always messy blonde hair.

[align=center]Annie merely rolled her eyes as he got the pack of cigarettes from her back pocket, but it didn't really concern her since smoking wasn't exactly something that she fancied. She crossed her arms over her chest and glared playfully up at him for a moment before looking back at Steve and Soda. "The car's back at the Curtis's place." Steve explained, somewhat ruefully. It was a hot day, to say the least, and walking in the overbearing sunlight would be painstaking.

I saw a thread like this, and figured why not? You're gonna have to be willing to play multiple characters at once though. Anyways, Marina and [your female character here] are best friends. They're at an innocent sleep over one night when Marina's father comes in and kills them both. (Pleasant, right?) Anyways, the two girls loved The Outsiders more than anything else in the world, so their spirits took another form and they find themselves awakening as young greasers in the story, though neither of them know what to do or why it's happening. We'll each play a few members of the gang (Yes, from the book!), and you just ask me which one you want me to play to fall in love with your character! I'm willing to play a bunch of characters, so no worries. They both live in the Curtis household though. I would prefer if you could play Dally to fall in love with her. Whoever you choose for me to play is fine with me. My first post may be a bit dumb and emotionless, but that it because I am just getting started!
(ALSO. When they wake up, they are on the couch surrounded by the boys. They both passed out at the same time, which caused the rest of the gang to freak out.)

IC:
Marina's wide, caramel brown eyes fluttered open as she heard voices through the darkness that had been surrounding her. She could feel the warmth of somebody laying next to her, though she wasn't quite sure who. The smell of cigarette smoke filled her senses, and, when her eyes opened, it was to the familiar faces that she had seen so many times in the movie that she loved most. "Wh-what?" she groaned.

[align=center]Perfectly fine! (:

No worries! And yes! That would be perfectly fine. And so I could play Soda, Pony, and Darry! (possibly Steve and some random extras eventually, as well. :L)

Marina gave a sharp, surprised yelp as Roxanne pushed her to the side, causing her to nearly fall off of the side of the couch. Her fall was only stopped as she scrambled upward into a sitting position and groaned, rubbing the side of her head slowly. She had a killer migraine. Despite the dull pain zinging around within her brain, she blinked as Roxanne questioned her. "What're you-" she began, but then finally seemed to snap back into reality. Her thoughts had been racing at time time as they tried to repair themselves from the mentally and emotionally scarring events that had previously been witnessed.

When she looked up to see the uncannily familiar faces staring back down at her, she nearly choked on her own spit. "Uh..." she peered up at them, her caramel colored eyes wide,"I didn't do this, Roxy. I swear it on my life. Are you trying to pull something here?" she demanded, though didn't take her eyes off of the familiar faces before her.

[hr][hr][hr]

Ponyboy had a look of concern painted across his facial features. "Boy, did you two scare the light out of me when you collapsed like that!" he informed them, almost angrily, though he sounded too relieved to be upset. "And what on Earth are you talking about, Marina? Pulling something?" he repeated.

What had happened, in that dimension, was that he and a few of the others, including Marina and Roxanne, had been walking around near the Dingo when, out of the blue, the girls had collapsed in a single synchronized motion. They'd been forced to carry them back to the house. Dally said that it had probably been from exhaustion since sleep had been hard to get for everybody lately due to the storms that had been ravaging the sky nearly every night for the past two weeks or so.

[align=center]yay! c:

[align=center]Acknowledging Roxanne's questions with little more than a confused mumble of,"I dunno," the messy haired brunette finally seemed to be coming to her senses (though her head still felt as if it were on the verge of exploding into a million pieces). She had decided, in that moment, that she was in a dream. (The recollection of what had really happened would come back to her soon). It wouldn't have been the first time that her little fantasies carried on into her sleep. Still, she couldn't recall one ever being quite so lifelike.

Her gaze averted upwards to Johnny, who had addressed them, and then over to Pony, who had done so as well, before nodding slowly. "Er- Uh. Yeah. Fine." she answered to them at last, before training her brown optics in the direction of the kitchen where, equipped with a glass of water in each hand, was none other than Darrel Curtis.

[hr][hr]

Darry eyed the all of the boys in annoyance as he came into the room. "Lord, guys! Give them some breathing space, would'ya?" he demanded in a huff, coming to stand by Pony, who had taken a step backwards upon hearing his older brother's exasperated words. He looked down at them and, with an eyebrow raised inquisitively, held the waters out for them to take. "Are you two gonna be alright, there? Heard that you both keeled right over and passed out in the middle of the road." he stated bluntly.

Pony folded his arms over his chest and watched the girls curiously. It really had been odd how they had fallen over, both as limp as ragdolls, at the exact same time, but he wasn't about to question why or how it had happened just yet. He knew full well that they needed their time to recover, and he was willing to give them that. He was only glad that they weren't dead or something, and appeared to be perfectly fine, if not somewhat discombobulated.

[align=center]Yes, I would like it if you could. cx

[align=center]alrighty! (:

Ic: With her chin lifted and eyes filled with determination, Eliza stared Arthur dead in the eyes. He stood across from her with his army, but she couldn't quite read his expression. "Leave me be, Arthur. Surrender, and none of your men have to die!" she bargained, squeezing the gun clamped within the grasp of her sweaty hand. Her dark golden locks, reaching down to her waist, were a mess, and it was clear by the smudges of dirt on her pale face, that she hadn't showered in days. Still, her large green eyes were fraught with determination and a fierce light that had never been in there before.

Ic: Louisa sat at the kitchen counter, dressed in a black tanktop and some green cargo pants. Her black hair was up in a ponytail, showing that she had just got done with her morning training session. She was watching Ludwig, who was seated over at his desk in the next room. It was time, she knew, to approach him about the one thing that had been bothering her for so long: she wanted to be a free, independent nation of her own. "Ludwig...?" she began at last, walking into the office with an uncertain expression on her pale face.

bump!

[justify]Eliza burst out laughing as he came up to her with the gun. Her bitter, sarcastic laughter was the only sound ringing through the moonlit clearing of soldiers, each of them dutifully waiting on orders to attack. She felt very uneasy with the gun pointed at her, of course, but it was all just too much. Somewhere in her fatigued, stubborn mind, this situation was hilarious for whatever reason. "Do it, Arthur. I dare you." she breathed, tilting her own gun slightly upward so that she could at least shoot him in a leg if necessary. Her eyes, though... They never left his. It was as if she was trying to make him recall all that they had been through together. All that he had done for her, and she had done for him.

[justify]Just as Eliza had suspected. The messy-haired young nation smiled, but it wasn't a smile of happiness. This facial gesture, one that was supposed to represent joy, held traces of anger... It held traces of triumph, and maybe even of sadness. "So does this mean that you're gonna retreat?" she whispered, her muscles still tense. As a matter of fact, she even raised her gun up higher, aiming it at the older nation's stomach in case he was trying to pull something. Her eyes were regretful, but what had to be done... Had to be done.

[justify]The young nation lowered her gun slowly to the ground and nodded,"You had to have expected this. You didn't raise me to be reliant on others. You raised me to be like the ocean, and the ocean is free." She lifted up her chin and, despite the black and blue circles under her eyes from lack of sleep, messy hair, and practically malnourished body, she looked stronger than ever. It was pretty clear that, had the war not ended soon, she would have lost. It was as if every memory that she had ever had with him flashed in her head. Memories danced within her head. "Thank you." she drily muttered to him, before turning back to her troops and raising a hand in the air,"Victory!" she called loudly, her triumphant call closely followed by numerous others.
