ok so like

i mentioned eel ran away in my Eel Is A Little Traumatized Boy Master Post when i made that ten billion million years ago

and he went to work for the circus for a year before he was a newsie

ive posted a painting i did of him in a tutu which im supes proud of lmao but i have this thing that when he was younger and before. yknow. puberty. he worked as a bowery beauty for a while after the circus and after he was a newsie because he had to get back on his feet. and i have a lot more thoughts in that vein but they dont make much sense outside of my head other than 'something something something he had to resort to selling his body for a while and hates when people touch him without his consent because of it something something' which SUCKS for him because ive already said he was a really tactile person? so he hates when people touch him but he loves hugs and stuff like that (might also be the tism but whos to say)

so it took such a long time to trust his friends in queens enough for them to even clap him on the shoulder or something, but after they left and he became king he didnt have that support system to bounce back on so he was really struggling with trusting people until he met shoe. and even with him, it took eel months to let him get near him, because he was big and tall and brought back bad memories, but he learned that shoe wasn't like those guys in the alley when he was young, shoe would never touch him when he doesnt want to be, shoe may be a large guy but he's so so gentle with the kids. and i think thats what finally got eel to trust him, he saw how sweet he was with the littles and was like "oh he's actually like. super nice and sweet and pretty and raaah maybe he wouldnt hurt anyone for no good reason" and dimes kinda just affixed himself to eel's side and zeke just. let him. dimes was the only one zeke trusted immediately, and he's not sure why, until he sees his old friend from queens before he was king and is like oh. dimes is the same person as Evan (kind of an oc? not really, kind of like i just took one of my really good friends and stuck them in a newsie outfit and now they exsist lmao) and he''s like whelp if i can't take care of evan now, dimes is the next best thing and promptly adopts him <3

anywhizzle i have a lot of thoughts abt these stupid little guys if youse wants more <3

i think he would do it to sprace and race would get mad and then spots just like '?????ok tiny child what abt it?????'

eel would join him in it fs but i havrnt decided if i wanna make another oc that's eels love interest, if i do then the shade dimes would throw at them would be IMMACULATE

Dimes has a reputation of making a loud mockery of every single couple in the newsies of any borough, no matter how likely he is to get soaked. People think he's just an annoying kid, and he is, but he's also aroace and doesn't comprehend why people would kiss or whatever.

IT WOULD BE SO GOOD

"Dimes, this is my partner-"

"Ew. Get rid of them."

Sort of thing. It's like having win over a younger sibling so you can be near their older brother.
