   Summary

   Titled for Soda because story was not preplanned, but entire gang is featured. Focus is on friendships, trauma healing, (found) family, and romance for some. Canon-complaint. Adult themes are present including abuse, assault, mental health/suicide, references to sexuality.
   IF YOU LIKE SHORTER FICS, the series that this story is attached to contains alternate versions of many of the storylines here with canon characters only, and I have a Tumblr with a ton of short Outsiders fics: https://www.tumblr.com/cetigapolo
