Jack And Crutchie In Uksies

YESSS i love it so much mmmm redfinch AND sprace

everything sucks (i've read the whole redfinch tag on ao3)

thinking about spot teaching race how to lead a borough in preparation for jack moving out.

spot offering for just a little more time with race, and because he never had that help himself, because he was afraid once, and finally spot has something of value to share.

race accepting because with jack on the way out nothing is certain but this boy he met during the strike who’s a little sharp and a little mean but committed to the strike so fully, and race wants someone who won’t back down from him.

anyway i’m writing a fic for this pls ask me about it so i stay motivated to finish it

i will never shut up abt this fic. pls read it if you haven’t.

A New World Is Gunning For You Chapter 13: New York Torch Song

If you see any inconsistencies or whatever in this, no you don’t! I didn’t rush the editing process, what are you talking about???

…

He groans aloud when he hears lockpicks in the door. Great, so he’s doing this again. Race hopes this one goes quick and they let him sleep afterwards.

He’s not expecting it to be Spot Conlon who opens the door when the lock clicks.

…

Or, the gang rallies to mount a rescue mission for Race! Read the chapter here!

IM BACK BABY

they’re takin a break from selling papes

taking boots out of the bway version fundamentally changed the dynamic of the newsies and i miss boots every time i watch it #in my boots era

somebody else said this first (@make-friends-with-the-rats) but im thinking about race’s character being split across him and albert in the stage version.

but i think that explains so much about the twinkification of race (which so many people have so eloquently critiqued). all his anger and traditional masculinity is placed into albert, who’s only identifier in the script is ‘tough guy’. (again, somebody posted these character descriptions but unfortunately I can’t find that either, pls correct me if i’m wrong about this).

I love Albert and Race and their stage dynamic (particularly in livesies with sky and ben) so i’m not upset about this choice, but I do think it explains a lot of what bugs me about fandom interpretation of Race.

anyways, maybe that’s why i’m such a ralbert truther, because it brings these seperate halves back together. who knows.

OMG YOUR ART IS SO PRETTYYYY 💙💙

could you perhaps do blink x mush (92sies) or jack x sarah 🥺👉👈

:0 Thank you!! <3333 :DD

of course love any excuse to learn more and draw the other newsies

I'm thinking of Paul beating up Ponyboy, cornering him in an alley, knowing it's him, and attacking anyway. Because in his eyes, this kid is the reason Darry is gone, hardened, shutting Paul out. Darry's responsibility for this ungrateful kid is the reason nothing will ever be the same again.

And Paul’s swinging on him and then this kid screams Darry’s name. For the shortest moment, Paul is comforted by the knowledge Darry is coming. Darry is coming back, with strong familiar arms to haul Paul off Ponyboy. And yeah, Darry will yell, and maybe even hit back, but at least he'll be here.

But then the gang gets there first and Paul has to scram, knowing Darry is going to hear about what he did and knowing he’s just ruined everything for good. No forgiveness anymore.

Might as well commit to it now. Might as well be the monster. Just to prove it never mattered to him anyway.

Y'ALL WE GOT ONE!!

So excited to cry over this, thank you for sharing :')

newsies hadestown au with David as Orpheus and Jack as Eurydice

David working on a song (Always the mouthpiece, the poet, but until he meets Jack he cannot put those words into action, and until he loses Jack he can’t find the power to voice them on his own)

Jack giving in to death (Jack scabbing, he sees David’s dream but can’t deliver on his end for one reason or another)

Davey going to drag Jack out of hell (He sees the dark place Jack are in and offers him hope, this is literally the watch what happens reprise)

Davey leading Jack out of the underworld because he loves him, so much, too much, and he has to look back because a world where Jack isn’t with him isn’t one he ever wants (Davey trying to lead the strike without Jack, unwilling to speak without Jack’s words)

Jack following, content with nothing but the trail Davey leads (literally the entire movie)

Like has anyone written this and if so gimme gimme. The parallels are insane and I'm yearning for it.

little ralbert drawing i did. I need you all to understand how much I love these two (either platonically or romantically I am so not picky)

(featuring the reference image which i found on pinterest)
