Hi Anon! Four years later, but yes you can absolutely request a sequel. lol, this fic is so interesting and fun for me.

So, after the events of the first movie, which you can find linked here, the wildcats are set to enjoy their summer vacation. Jack and Katherine are dating, Jack and Race are safe with Medda and Jack is looking for a summer job.

He is trying to get to college, he wants to go for art, and wants to save up his own money, despite Medda promising to help him out. Sarah overhears him telling Race about applying to local ice cream shops and she takes it upon herself to get her parent’s resort to reach out to him with a summer job for him. However, as Jack does accept the job, Sarah is unaware that Jack also recommended his girlfriend, Katherine, to be a lifeguard at the pool and all the other kids from the school apply for other jobs as well, getting hired as kitchen staff.

Sarah is upset at this and David begs her to keep a cool head because he enjoys having all of his new friends at the resort. He has become very close with Jack and Race and some of the others and Sarah, still wanting to date Jack, does not listen and tries to get the manager of the resort to make their jobs awful and drive the wildcats to quit, while giving Jack luxury items and passes to their resort. Jack is a bit put off by this.

See Jack is experiencing a lot of PTSD from staying with Snyder and realizes during these times where the manager of the resort, Obadiah Weisel, is alone with him, that he feels like he can’t breathe. He struggles to remain calm with things like glass breaking and being late to work. Race notices this, as he too is working in the kitchen, and he tells Katherine who calms Jack by making him a picnic and taking him out by the lake to have a nice romantic date together. Sarah sees them, however and turns on the sprinklers to try and ruin the moment, but it doesn’t work. Jack actually has a very good time and they dance in the sprinklers together.

Later that day, Sarah insists that Crutchie writes new music for a show to put on for the resort's gala that they have once a year. Crutchie hesitantly does so, writing a duet he assumes will be for Jack and Katherine, but Sarah steals the music away from him the moment it’s done and devises a plan to get Jack to agree to sing it with her instead.

As Sarah knows David is close with Jack, she tricks him into spying on Jack to get information on when Jack and Kath are having their next date and arranges for Jack to be at dinner with her and her family, as her father is a art enthusiast, very well known in the art community, and offers to write Jack a letter of rec, upon Sarah’s insistence, as long as he has dinner with them. Jack does and Race and Spot end up serving them, which makes Jack very uncomfortable. He tries to help them but Sarah treats them like absolute garbage to try and look better in front of her parents, whom she is relentlessly trying to impress. But she eventually trips Race which sends Jack to lash out in an almost violent way as he is remembering Race being hurt when they were younger. Everyone at the table is stunned and Jack rushes off, humiliated.

Spot nearly quits but Race insists he’s fine and they hang out by the lake while their friends finish serving the Jacobs dinner. Race opens up to Spot about how different his brother is acting and how scary he gets sometimes because of what he’s been through and Spot can only comfort him by saying Jack is still working through the trauma of everything Snyder did to him and to give him time.

Meanwhile, Jack rushes to his date with Katherine where they go night swimming and have a romantic moment before being caught by security, nearly getting Katherine fired. Jack insists it won’t happen again and that it was all his idea and that if anyone should be fired, it should be him, but Sarah instead insists that Weisel promote Jack, which makes Jack even more uncomfortable because it means spending more time with Sarah. To try and mend what happened at dinner, Sarah apologizes by setting up a chance for Jack to play football with Columbia University for an afternoon, though he was supposed to play baseball with Race, Spot and the others. Jack is hesitant to go, but Race insists he go because he thinks it’ll make Jack a little bit happier and then he invites David to play in his place, noting David seems a little more down than usual as Sarah seems to be ignoring him completely.

Katherine is starting to get concerned for Jack, but Race insists he needs space, as it’s only been a few months since Snyder’s house and he’s still coping with the abuse. Katherine agrees and goes to watch the baseball game.

David, who’s not really a baseball player, gets pointers from Spot on how to play the game, making Race a little bit jealous. David and Spot end up going head to head a lot, becoming very good friends and David teaches Spot how to dance a little bit on the field, amusing the rest of the wildcats.

David then invites the rest of the wildcats to put a song together for the gala and they all agree, except for Race, whom they notice is missing. They go to search for him and David finds him curled up by the pool, hiding from everyone else because he’s feeling isolated and alone and wants his brother back and the two of them bond over their sibling dramas.

The next day, Jack goes back into work and feels anxiety about people being mad at him and not wanting him around, though that simply is not true. Him and Race get into a very public argument and Race runs off, accidentally tripping over an exposed root on a trail and falling down into the lake, though he cannot swim.

Jack had been out after him, feeling guilty and manages to jump in after him, pulling him to shore and Race just cries and admits he wants to go home.

Sarah, having seen this and knowing that David is trying to get the wildcats to sing at the gala, bans every kitchen staff member from participating because of this incident, stating that everyone is getting too emotional and harsh about it and Katherine quits, having had enough, despite Jack asking her to stay.

Jack, having had enough of Sarah’s treatment, resigns from his promotion and works with the kitchen staff again, telling Sarah he is now barred from performing too unless she allows them to perform together. Race, knowing Jack is still struggling, manages to convince Katherine to come back for one night to sing with Jack and mend their relationship.

Jack learns a brand new song moments before going on stage and David informs Sarah she won’t be performing with him, which angers Sarah before she breaks down, knowing her behavior towards her friends and brother has been anything but okay.

Jack goes out to sing and is surprised by Katherine joining him and the wildcats get to sing on stage together once again. And as the fireworks close out the night, Jack and Katherine dance together, sharing a kiss and Jack brings his friends in for a group hug, thanking them for sticking with him despite everything, especially his brother.

And that’s that.

The next day, Spot teaches Race how to swim and David makes sure Race knows how much Spot adores him as they all go out for a pool party.

Day Three: Newsies

Ok, first of all the music in this is soso good- Jeremy Jordan ate that up sooo good. A couple songs (mostly Sante Fe) from this have already been on my radar but legit all of them will probably be on all my playlists now! I've been wanting to watch this one forever and even took the time to start it a while back but

The only thing is that I feel like there was too much masculine energy for me with this one I DON'T KNOW I LIKED THIS TOO SO I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M SAYING TBH This might just be because I'm a hopeless romantic + wanted more of that lovey dovey stuff during the first act <33 Gasped and giggled during Something to Believe In so I think that confirms this theory..!!

I'm a rat boy lover so definitely loved this one for that (watched the ensemble more than half the time fs fs) Also: Jeremy Jordan is being added to my notes app list for this one tee hee!

The dancing is so good, too. Love the way they use the stage on this one, it works really well with such a large cast. The final dancing before bows??? Are you kidding me that was too good I can barely function

Favorite song is probably The Bottom Line orr Once and For All (guys I don't know how I'm picking these tbh. These are just the ones I've had on repeat the most after watching!!)

Thank you to @who-are-you-calling-a-rose for the recommendation on this one- the way you've given me two new favorites is crazy + I'm forever thankful

I am incapable of liking a musical without thinking of a hermitcraft au for it.

Anyway what if the king arc was newsies? All the rest of the hermits are in the au I just don’t have them assigned to specific newsies yet :)
