If I had a nickel for every time the male, teenage, orphan main character in a story with very strong gay subtext told their seemingly-younger, severely injured close friend with a nickname that ends with an 'ee' sound about the idealistic paradise they imagine in the country, far from the boxes society forces them into in the city, I would have two nickels, but it's weird that it happened twice.

parallel between the outsiders and newsies
the parallel between the outsiders and newsies is so special to me. The way that both ponyboy and jack kelly yearn for a life outside of the town they've lived in forever just hits so hard. ponyboy yearns for a life outside of Tulsa the same way jack yearns for santa fe which we know is a fictional place he's made up in his head that represents the fact that he can never escape new york. this is almost the same exact trope in the outsiders musical where ponyboy yearns to get out of tulsa. both of them are just so tired of where they are at in life that they have to create fantasies in their heads to escape their lives. they're both tired of being an outsider (no pun intended). jack cannot stand the fact that he is labeled as a street rat and ponyboy wants a life beyond the labels 'greaser' and 'soc'. thank you for coming to my tedtalk.

Unlikely Friendship
Captain Jack Harkness x GN!Reader (Flirtatious romance???)
10th Doctor & GN!Reader (platonic)
The Doctor really really shouldn't have left you and Jack alone at all.
The Doctor had left you and Jack alone for five minutes. It really had only been five minutes and yet when he came back, you were sitting in one of the pillars in his console room and Jack pulling out some sort of space currency and slamming it down on the console. "I can't believe the TARDIS let you do that."
You turned to face The Doctor and waved, shifting a bit and leaning more against little wall the pillar had. The Doctor groaned and ran his hand through his hair. "Get down."
Jack huffed and gestured toward you. "Oh come on, Doctor! Let them live a little."
"They live a little every time I leave you two alone- Jack, why has your shirt changed?" The Doctor's eyes caught the familiar imaging on Jack's shirt and turned to look at you again.
You and Jack had swapped shirts. "It was the prize for who could get to the library fastest."
"The TARDIS favors you way to much." Jack said, eyeing you as you started to climb back down.
Jack moved to help you down and The Doctor was already well ahead of him, his arms practically holding you like a scolded cat who was being set in a different location. "You both need to be careful, it is not a jungle gym."
You scoffed and worked on worming Jack's shirt off. "If the TARDIS didn't want us playing, she would've stopped us, Doctor. I think she misses having a bunch of people in here."
The Doctor looked away from both you and Jack while the two of you handed each others shirts back, although The Doctor's eyes had drifted to look at Jack's back. You laughed softly, catching his stare and lightly tapped Jack to let him know. Your shirt had been lightly stretched out by Jack but you didn't mind. "This is going in the sentiment box under my bed."
"You have a sentiment box?" Both Jack and The Doctor asked, in unison and you cheered.
"Twenty more, Harkness! I'm taking you for all your money today!"
Jack rummaged in his pockets for a minute before shrugging. "You already got it all, honey."
"A kiss?" You asked, brow raised and The Doctor cleared his throat.
Jack and you turned to face The Doctor whose face was starting to get red. In his hand, was money. "I can just give you the money."
Jack looked to you and you shrugged. "I'll take whatever space money I can get at this point."
You snatched the money out of The Doctor's hand and then moved to Jack and pressed a kiss to Jack's cheek, who eagerly moved to place a kiss on your forehead.
"We still on for ballroom dancing, next time?" You asked, turning to grab the rest of the money you had earned.
"Anytime sweetheart." Jack said and you nodded.
"See ya, Jack!"
