Albert: ‘They’ll never find the body’ is such a boring threat, a better threat would be ‘they’ll never stop finding the body’

Crutchie, bored: Or just say ‘they’ll be finding parts of you for at least 4 months, and you’ll still be alive for 3 of them’

Race: Now that’s a threat!

Davey, covering Les’s ears: *horrified silence*

In a different universe Albert DaSilva is safe

In a different universe he’s still a baby

In a different universe he’s wrapped in his mothers arm while she hums a lullaby

In a different universe his father isn’t cruel and he cares

In a different universe he has a childhood

In a different universe he gets to experience what he never got to; toys, treats, a warm bed and kisses from his parents

In a different universe Albert DaSilva isn’t a newsie

He isn’t begging for food and getting paid penny’s go survive

He ain’t shivering on the streets

He isn’t in his fathers fighting ring

In a different universe Albert DaSilva has his mama and that’s all that matters

But Albert doesn’t have his mama

He never met her

She never met him

Albert’s mama is gone.

Which artists I think newsies characters listen to on repeat

Jack Kelly: very old vibes, like not in a bad way old. like I’m talking about Elton John, Billy Joel, or Redbone.

Katherine: definitely something chill, so like Cigarettes After Sex, Laufey, or some underground artist like idk Cruncho or Lyric.(Cruncho and Lyric is actual artists, they are good!)

Davey: definitely shares some what of a same taste with Katherine. But might also listen to Jazz, more specifically Bossa nova, and Latin. But he doesn’t have a specific artist he listens to.

Crutchie: Probably listens to a musical soundtrack on repeat, or just lets the other people choose. But if he has to choose it’s probably indie. So stuff like Sufjan Stevens.

Racetrack: bro probably listens to a lot of things considered “gay,” or queer artists like Chappell Roan, Lady Gaga, or Girl in Red. But also enjoys Radiohead, or Pixies.

Spot Conlon: a lot of punk rock or metal, like Anti Flag, Black Flag, Dead Kennedys or just plays loud obnoxious songs just to piss to people off.

Elmer: probably usually don’t listen to music, and the time when he do, it’s probably being forced to watch cocomelon with Les (which probably is everyone’s inevitable fate with Les)

Albert: enjoys simple rock, or indie rock. Like AC/DC, Cage the Elephant, Pinegrove.

Les: Force everyone to watch cocomelon, or you can catch him singing to a k pop group.

Take my incoherent holiday newsies hcs:

-Jack puts up Mistletoe everywhere in his and Davey’s house to get kisses from Davey

-he pretends like he has no idea where the mistletoe came from 

-Davey knows that Jack put it there but kisses him anyway

-race tried to do the same with spot all over the Brooklyn lodge

-spot doesn’t fall for it

-somehow York and graves end up under it

-Jack and Buttons celebrate Hanukkah with Elmer and Davey even though they have no idea what they’re doing

-Davey and elmer know they have no idea but love it anyway

-All the newsies get together on Christmas Eve and watch the muppets Christmas Carol

-the Manhattan and Brooklyn newsies have a huge snowball fight in Central Park 

-spot dresses as Santa for the Brooklyn littles

-Jack has stockings for all the newsies that he puts out and secretly fills with candy and stuff

-Ike and Mike have matching Christmas pajamas

-York goes with graves every Christmas morning to the cemetery to see his grandma

-Jack gives Davey drawings for gifts

-jojo and hotshot think Ike and Mike are adorable in their matching pajamas 

-kid makes mush horribly hand made gifts

-mush loves and cherishes them anyway

-Crutchie gets everyone presents

-smalls holds mistletoe above her and sniper and goes “oh how’d that get there~” and sniper thinks she’s adorable

Davey comes over. There’s a large cockroach on the table.

Davey: WHAT THE F-

[military-newsboys]

Jack: That building is, like, 5 Davey away and we're at least 14 Davey high. Davey: Please don't use me as a system of measurement.

[newmsies]

my only complaint about Livesies is that the socks match. No they don't, no they don't, leave me alone

[newsiesautismfrfr]

Jack Kelly singing Santa Fe prologue to crutchie is so “somewhere only we know” core send tweet

[fansiesmemes]

Tommy Boy: Ok, maybe playing ‘whose family is most dysfunctional’ wasn’t the best idea we’ve had. Elmer's been crying in the bathroom for an hour. We can’t get them out…

[gabs-books]

Spot: this is the stupidest thing i’ve done

Elmer: You’re dating Race, i think that’s the stupidest thing you’ve done

Race: HEY THAT WAS UNCALLED FOR

[trustworthytoast]

Anyone ever think about Elmer and how he helps the other newsies especially the younger ones to keep track on how much money they have, what they can afford etc.

And how he gave everything to teach them enough math to spot wether a costumer is pulling tricks to pay less or to give back the right change?

Because he is really good with numbers but some of the others are so bad it physically hurt him and he just really wants to help?

No?

Just me?

Ok
