Feeling Isolated

I have thought over my post many times and don't believe it violates rule 1 so if it does just let me know and I will take it down. That said I am indigenous or well I think. My mom's side of the family has many cousins who are and we all are connected through my mom's side so I'm assuming that makes me Indigenous too unless they all married into an Indigenous family. My issue lies with being completely isolated from them. My grandfather is incredibly like can't be in the same room with a non-white person problematic. I don't speak to him anymore obviously but my Nana said we have no indigenous blood when I know my cousins are who I can't contact because of a big move and just losing phone numbers. I want to believe my papa and definitely Nana wouldn't lie about this but my papa can't even bring up the fact he has a gay brother. Like fully doesn't acknowledge his existence. So it left me stranded. I don't want to claim something I'm not so what I'm asking I guess is if there are ways to find out? I have googled before and tried to find actual resources but have come up shorthanded because maybe I don't know how to phrase it. Again if this isn't the right place I understand and will delete this but I'm Canadian if that makes a difference and if someone knows where to point me. Not educate me just point me in a direction where I can move forward with my search.

So we have Ponyboy's canonical birthday from S.E herself as being July 22nd. Meaning if Ponyboy has been 14 for a month the story is in August 22nd to early September since I doubt Pony was being exact on the date.

Sounds fine right? Ponyboy is 14 for a month and the story takes place in August or September.

How is Two-Bit almost 19 then? His birthday is June 20th according to S.E so like he is closer to 18 than 19 when in the book he's described as 18 and a half.

Now I'm just restarting the book so I don't know for a fact in the book Pony says he's been fourteen for a month so maybe this was a film exclusive thing. Either way the inconsistency is secertly killing me.

Hello! I'm Mei (she/her, 22) and I am wanting to an rp centered in the universe of S.E Hinton's book: The Outsiders. I am looking for those in my age range and have no triggers really but I of course will be mindful of yours.

I do strictly oc × canon and doubling is a must. We both get something we want then and I of course will put effort into yours if you do for mine.

I am a third person writer usually who can go from semi-lit to novella and anything inbetween. It does not really matter for me as long as there is substance to your writing. I am not super strict about grammar or spelling, I'm dyslexic so as long as I can understand you (and you can me) then we should be all good!

I am looking for someone to play one of the following for me and in return I can play any character for you as well! I have multiple love interests that can be used for this fandom so no sweat if we run into having the same one, I got backups! :)

- Darry Curtis

- Two-bit Matthews

- Sodapop Curtis

- (maybe) Johnny Cade

I am hoping we can talk and have fun, I am in MST though my sleep schedule is very wonky. I don't have the most busy schedule but of course I know you most likely will and I understand and am respectful of that. However if you will be gone for more then a week I ask you just give a heads up so I don't think you've dropped me.

Feel free to comment or dm!♡
