    Summary

    Enemy, apprentice, friend. Associate is too clinical, lover sounds too personal, partner too enduring. Confidante? Comrade? Companion?

    There is no word for what Levi is, to him. What do you call an equal other than an equal?

    A counterpart, Erwin thinks.

    Summary

    "May I have you tonight," he plainly asked, standing in the doorway and offering no solicitations. She did not understand why the question was posed, when she had no recourse to reject him. Even if she could deny him, she was well aware her only chance of surviving this marriage depended on offering him a child.

    ***

    Married in haste after a compromise forces them together, Elizabeth attempts to survive an unwelcome marriage--one night at a time.

    Summary

    Ponyboy considered herself to be as regular as regular came. Perhaps the definition, even. She was unassuming. Not like her brother Soda, who could have been a movie star. Not even like Darry, who everyone at school loved even though he was a Grease. Pony got overlooked; and more often than not, she was fine with that. Darry probably was, too, if it meant she was staying out of trouble.

    Though, trouble was kind of built into her. Not like she could help it. That was just what growing up around a bunch of greasy boys does to a person.

    *****

    Basically, Ponyboy Curtis is a girl, which changes a few things, but definitely not everything.

    Summary

    Ponyboy Curtis didn’t do drugs– or at least, he hadn’t before. Or maybe he still hadn’t, and all the fuzziness and blankness and distance between himself and the rest of the world was something else. Something… not drugs.

    'Right,' Pony thought, his hand gripping a railing on a staircase he didn’t recognize, in a house he had never stepped foot in, 'but this is probably drugs.'

    -

    Months after the almost-murder of Bob Sheldon, Ponyboy has mostly gotten back to normal. Johnny is fine, he's fine, the not sleeping is fine, the fear of cold water is fine: he just has to convince everyone else of these facts, too.

    Summary

    Pony Curtis has always been a good liar...so good she can even fool herself sometimes. It's a skill that comes in handy when Bob Sheldon ends up dead, and no one can know that she had anything to do with it. Not even her brothers.
