Ponyboy’s relationship with Darry is different than his relationship with Soda. Darry is always hard on Pony and is always wanting more from him. He is also very rough with him and yelling at him, sometimes unintentionally. This shows that Ponyboy and Darry don’t get along. However, Soda sticks up for Pony when Darry is hard on him. Ponyboy also is able to open up to Soda and talk with him because Soda listens. Additionally, Soda takes Pony with him to hang out with him and with friends. Overall, Pony and Soda have a stronger and better relationship than Darry and Pony. Both Soda and Darry love Ponyboy. However, they have very different ways of showing their love which leads to very different relationships between the boys.
