OKAY SO I WAS WATCHING NEWSIES LAST NIGHT again yes AND there’s this shot where I think it’s Romeo in the frame and you can see a newsies arm yes? And I was with my mom and I was like “hey it’s Albert.” And paused to confirm and she’s like “isn’t Albert the one with the red hair? That newsies doesn’t have red hair” and I had to stop to explain “no that’s alberts arm”. BECAUSE I FUCKING KNEW THAT??

just so you know, my six year old brother wants to be Romeo from newsies when he grows up. Not just any actor, not just any newsie, he wants to be Romeo.
edit: this is so freakin’ important to me because my family is filipino and Nico DeJesus, the proshot actor of Romeo and the version of Romeo we see everyday is filipino too. I love that my brother can see himself on stage like that.

Random Wallflower AU Fact.
Finch has eaten every single maths test that he’s failed.
The first time he did it, he got his test back with an F in like, sixth grade, (forgive me if I mess of on the Grades, we use a different system here) and he sat down at lunch with Specs, Romeo, Buttons and JoJo and just started eating it.
Specs was absolutely aghast, confused and concerned, Romeo was too focused on his food, and Buttons and JoJo shrugged it off as ‘Normal Finch Behaviour’
(New series? Wallflower AU Fact/HC of the day?)

Romeo
Quickfire Favorites
Food: “Tha kin ya can eat”
Color: “Blue n red lik me socks”
Season: “Winter, I lik tha snow n it givs me a excuse ta cuddl”
Weather: “Snow duh”
Hobby: “Flirtin if tha count, n pickin up trinkets fo Fin”
Animal: “crows”
Memory: “Watchin Fin sav a baby boid. Him kept it warm in him pocket, was real cute”
Comfort Item: “Ion really got one les Fin count. Him giv good cuddles, speshully wen ya uset”
He gets his nickname as a nod to Romeo from Romeo and Juliet because he gets puppy crushes. He didn’t know why he had this nickname until someone read the book to him.
Fin quotes the line from the play (Romeo Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo) to call for Romeo which makes him smile and his tummy “feel weird n warm n happy”
Romeo has had a crush on pretty much every newsie at some point (and also Darcy and Bill). His current one is on Finch and this one had lasted a lot longer. He had had a crush on Finch before, it seems he always comes back to them. He says it feels different this time, much stronger. He says it gets stronger every time he gets “pulled back” to Finch
Speaking of books, Romeo cannot read.
Romeo can’t read so he really likes movies and video games. When he does watch/play he puts the captions on. It’s his way of trying to teach himself because he’s embarrassed by it.
English is also not his first language which is part of why reading is hard for him
He likes it when people read books to him, but he doesn’t ask for it often because he’s self conscious about not being able to read himself. His favorites, of course, fantasy books with romance (think knight in shining armor and princess)
Romeo does not know his parents. If he tries hard he can sort of recall what his mother’s voice sounded like, but it is all very distant memories. He was in and out of different orphanages. He was supposed to be on the orphan train to some farmer out in the midwest, but instead ran away from the orphanage to join the newsies. New York was all he had known and he didn’t like the idea of moving away
While in the orphanages Romeo was the runt of the litter so to speak. Part of the reason he is so small is because of the overcrowding and the horrible conditions. He was in a crib for way too long and of course never had a bed to himself. He was always last to be fed and sometimes would not get food at all. He was often picked on by both kids and grownups because of the way he looked.
Romeo has vitiligo. It’s most obvious on his skin, but he does a few sections of hair that have also lost pigment
When his vitiligo started getting worse he was often called a cow or other mean names. He’s very insecure about his vitiligo because of it. He often uses makeup or dirt to hide it.
Romeo flip flops between thinking he’s hot shit and worrying that he’s being too annoying and that everyone secretly hates him
He tends to pick up interests from other people, especially the ones he likes, because he wants to be able to relate to them. So, for example, he got really into rocks when he first crushed on Finch. When he was hanging out with Jack he tried to learn how to paint, etc etc.
He likes blue and socks with funky patterns
He tries to seem like nothing bothers him and that he can go with the flow, but it’s a cover up for how insecure he is. Because he crushes so easily he has had his fair share in heartbreak. And while he says everything is all good each time he was rejected stung more than the last. Because of this part of him believes he’s not good enough for anyone
He would absolutely wear a dress, but he’s too shy and would never admit it
Romeo is touch starved and craves physical intimacy. Not necessarily in a sexual way, he is perfectly happy with cuddles and kisses. He just craves feeling close with someone. As his name suggests he is a romantic at heart and he really wants to be able to have something like what he sees in the movies
He has a scar on his forehead under his hair from when he got hit with the baton by the police during the strike
Finch. This boy is fuckin obsessed with him. Absolutely head over heels in love
Romeo pictures Finch as a crow because “him smat n him lik ta pick up shiny thins”
Romeo referred to Finch as his songbird once and now all the newsies tease him for it
Finch makes Romeo feel safe and Finch is the one he will go to when he feels insecure or anxious

"The flirt of the newsies, he’s always hitting on the ladies. Though his charm and smooth-talking doesn’t always work, it don’t stop him from trying!"

got a req from @cucumber-melon-fizz for romeo being pathetic and decided to extend it a bit to include also jack getting rejected:) tysm for the rq!
[gif description: gifset of (mostly) romeo from newsies: the broadway musical
in the first gif, romeo approaches katherine and darcy, blocking their way with his stick and trying to flirt with katherine. he fails.
in the second, jack pushes romeo away and now he tries to flirt with katherine. he also fails.
in the third gif, as katherine tells jack off, jack stumbles back into romeo, and they walk off together.
