working on a redfinch fic where albert skateboards and he meets finch by fucking running directly into him by accident
ik I only ever post and reblog about javey but I love blush. Blush you will always be famous. Blush you are the arguably most canon queer pairing in newsies. Blush you are so much
i will never shut up abt this fic. pls read it if you haven’t.
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!
Shameless plug for the Outsider's fic I just wrote, centered on Two-Bit's perspective on getting jumped.
I wanted to explore his feelings about being injured by a girl (grappling with his own judgements of femininity and also his sister, who has always wanted to be 'pretty' like a Soc girl), his shame around being used as a message, and his fear for his family.
I've always loved the complexity of Two-Bit having a loving family, and his getting jumped is a detail I'm so glad got added into the musical.
There is also incredibly vague Marbit if that's ur thing.
Anyways, check it out if you're interested!
The wasp in the length of my arm - Oh hi so long no full piece. Well this is a redraw I’ve been meaning to do for the longest time. I don’t do redraws too much because to be honest I cannot say if I like the lost recent one better or the older original version. There’s always something so charming about the things you do when you’re experimenting and they feel less polished and honest. That being said I have been thinking about this piece a lot because I did this around four years ago (in the middle of the pandemic) and it felt to important to me, in a personal sense and also because I longed to go out and live in the real world. Sufjan is of course forever a favorite of mine and I could talk for hours about his work. I wanted to revisit this piece.
My challenge right now is not letting my innie-cam (haha severance reference) take over my whole life. I need to nurture my outer existence and that what is most important to me which is, making art. Hope you sufjan fans still enjoy this version. Love.
does anyone have an explanation for the last names of newsies side characters? like ik some are historical and some are in the script, but what abt like Albert and Finch? Or Buttons? Like DaSilva, Cortez, and Davenport all feel widely accepted in fanon.
just wondering if anyone knows. thank youuu!!!
Nothing will ever bring me as much sadness as the shortened album versions of Seize the Day & King of New York. How am I supposed to video-broadcast the entire show in my head if you cut the dance sequences?? How am I supposed to cope with my day without: "hey, where's Les?" Chaos noises
just a reminder for all my fellow writers out there (bc i’ve needed to remind myself recently): there is no wrong way to write, ever. the act of writing makes you a writer. you deserve a space at the table.
it can be so scary to share your work (and you never have to, you’re still a writer if you never do), but if you’re hesitant, please hold onto this: you need no qualifications but passion. good and bad is subjective and means nothing; if you love what you’re writing, you’re doing it right.
anyways i love yall and take care of yourselves!!
this is my niche but i just watched the NCAA women’s lacrosse final and now im envisioning female spot conlon as a lacrosse player with her stupid boyfriend race who also plays but is a loser.
sorry i got carried away.
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.
Y'ALL WE GOT ONE!!
So excited to cry over this, thank you for sharing :')
