Modern Newsie headcannons: NYC edition

i know the newsies live in nyc but a lot of the headcannons aren’t about them living in nyc so i came up with some

- Race sleeps a lot on the subway, mostly when he’s with albert cuz he knows albert will get them off at the right place. When they’re standing on the subway, and race is leaning his head on albert’s shoulder, al will keep his arm around Race’s waist so he doesn’t fall. If he’s asleep while they’re sitting down, albert will make sure his head doesn’t hit the wall.

- race and al use one pair of air pods on the subway to listen to the same music

- jack hates the subway (country boy at heart)

- finch will always ask someone if they would get up for crutchie to sit down if they’re are no empty seats

- race just knows the manhattan subway and streets by heart (native new yorker lookin ass)

- david carries hand sanitizer with him for after using the subway cuz you don’t know where everyone’s hands have been (the other newsies catch on cuz it’s smart)

- david is TERRIBLE at navigating the subway system. it’s overwhelming to him. he has cried while trying to figure out where they’re supposed to go when going somewhere new and jack takes over and never lets him navigate again. (unless he really wants to)

- race fanning albert while they wait for the subway (it’s hot as fuck down there)

- i know a very popular hc is that one of the newsies (usually jack) has a van, but realistically, these mfs don’t own cars 😭

- albert and jack will almost always take the stairs over the escalator

- race has fallen asleep alone on the subway and ended up somewhere completely different than where he was headed, which is why he now usually only sleeps if he’s with someone else

- most of the newsies live in lower manhattan (duh), but some of them live uptown north of central park. jack and crutchie live in the bowery with medda. the jacobs live in the lower east side (many jewish families settled there when they moved to nyc). races family lived in east harlem, but they moved to lower manhattan when race was a baby. spot and elmer are roommates (they live in brooklyn)

- race family is the classic italian roman catholic family

- david, sarah, and les are first generation immigrants from poland

- finch has picked up a pigeon off the streets on multiple occasions

- most of the newsies have never really left the city

- you know the newsies are constantly joining broadway lotteries

- race works at the broadway dance center (sky flaherty core)

- albert has no patience for slow walkers, he weaves in between people. he always looks like he’s on a mission.

that’s it for now !!

Albert DaSilva and Spot Conlon have beef, and no one's sure if it's real or a bit.

[orangesand-lemons-234]

Yet another incorrect quote based on my life:

Albert: Race, Tell Jack what you did!

Race, mouth full: *shakes head*

Jack: what the hell is going on?

Albert: you tell him or I will

Race:*swallows*, Al bet me I wouldn’t eat a paper bag

Jack: PLEASE TELL ME YOU DID NOT JUST SWALLOW A PAPER BAG!

Race: Don’t ask me to lie to you

[ya-what--ya-erster]

discuss this with me: headcanon that Albert is like. Madly embarrassed over his hair. Like the reason he wears his hat backwards is because it covers more of his hair. He doesn’t like being easy to pick out in a crowd.

[trustworthytoast]

Modern era Albert does Parcour

I'm sorry I don't make the rules

[fart-boys-blog]

newsies designs and hcs!! :3

[raggedy-albert]

albert is not allowed to accept dares because he will do it every single time no matter what

[albertsbootayyy]

I feel like the whole “race and albert are banned from the kitchen” is just slightly off: either they will burn your kitchen down but somehow still put something on the table that is worth five michelin stars

or are both individually excellent cooks but should not be put together (which I feel like honestly counts for almost everything they do together, it’s like their rational working braincells turn off when they are together and only turn on again when they’re apart)

It's random headcanon time!!

Spot got his nickname because when he first joined the Brooklyn newsies he had a face full of prominent freckles, but as he grew older, they gradually faded until they were a very pale brown.

Albert had been given a lot of different nicknames over the years, but he hated all of them so he never let them stick. Eventually the newsies just settled at calling him by his name or a shortened version of his name (eg. Al, Albie).

[spot-conlons-pimp-cane]

Just to preface this: this incorrect quote is something that a friend of mine actually said, lol

*The newsies organizing a pride event*

Davey: What is the most queer day of the week?

Racer (No hesitation): Wednesday

Albert: Why?

Racer: cuz on Wednesdays we wear pink

[hexmari]

hiiii head canons for Albert & Elmer??? Oh and Sarah

I don’t really have HC for Elmer but I do have some for Sarah and Albert! Anyways send in more asks please they can literally be super specific if you want I love answering them!

ALBERT HEADCANONS:

Albert was born in America and is of Irish descent. His father, and two older brothers all live in Manhattan. His mother is deceased.

Even though his family lives in Manhattan, Albert prefers to stay in the lodging house.

He feels like a burden living with his family otherwise as both of his older brothers are adults (in their twenties) and have “proper” blue collar jobs that bring in more money.

His father is a very grouchy and unpleasant man and is incredibly harsh on all of his sons. But Albert still looks up to him and what's nothing more then to make his father proud. He often feels overshadowed by his brothers.

When he got his picture in the paper he left it on his father's doorstep in hopes of impressing him. But his father never mentioned it and Albert doesn't think he even read the paper.

He considers Racetrack his best friend and he doesn't smoke, mostly taking Race’s cigars to mess with him.

He’s never had a newsie name that really stuck and he doesn't feel a disconnect with his birthname as other newsies do. So he's always just gone by Albert.

Al will get burnt to a crisp during the summer, he's always sunburnt when the weather gets warm. Race, who just tans, teases him about it.

Banter is his form of affection but he can sometimes go to far and end up coming off as mean.

He has freckles.

SARAH HEADCANONS:

Sarah and David are twins, with Sarah being older. She never lets him forget that. They're fraternal, but look very similar features wise.

Sarah has very thick wavy brown hair and it is her pride and joy. She keeps it very long and loves managing it.

She's very talented at embroidery.

While David and Les sold papers, she took up mending clothes to earn money for their family.

She plays piano.

Once she's introduced to Katherine they become best friends.

She loves romance novels, and she gets very invested.
