92sies Behind the Scenes

tw blood & body horror

I am UNWELL

Newsies.

What is everybody's fav newsies song mine is king of new york

I saw someone talk about this, but I can't stop thinking about it. Jack 100% gets jealous when Davey hangs out with someone who's not him. I just know he has jealousy problems (which probably stem from childhood)

Jack is a cat person, Davey is a dog person. I'll explain my point below, if you don't want to read a bunch of yaps about newsies, you can stop here 😭

Cats are usually seen as independent, they won't need you, especially street cats, they are skittish and usually attack people they don't know to protect themselves, remember someone? But they are also afraid, and if treated right, they soften, they are sweet, they just need the right treatment, without anyone hitting them or telling them they are bad luck, again, does that ring a bell? But still, they are independent, they learned to be most of the times. Unlike dogs, they are usually unable to be affectionate normally, and when they do, their affection are normally discarded, they give gifts, things that they think are necessary for the owner because he thinks he is a cub, again, someone it needs to protect.

Dogs are different, if someone doesn't give them a purpose or an order, they don't do it, It's not because they can't, it's simply because they're used to receiving orders, to having someone to tell them what to do, they are desperate for someone. They are sometimes seen as very dependent, very clingy to their owners, but they can also be aggressive if trained outside of them, but they usually are not, They are protective, just like cats, of what is theirs, but again, they need to be trained or forced to learn to defend what is theirs, because they are docile, it is not in their nature to attack.

Does that make sense?

Have a little strawberry cat to make up for my constant yaps

I need him to hit me with a bus lord

Rip the Newsies. You would have loved joining Red Note to spite the government after the TikTok ban.

actually jealous jack is so special to me. like in any circumstance. katherine being flirted with? he's mad. davey finds literally anyone else? he's mad. jack is the most possessive boy on the earth and i love him for it idc idc idc

I really wish you could give kudos more than once on Ao3 because so many amazing fics deserve it. Since I can't, I'm just going to shamelessly promote them so go read A Call To Movement by @saysflora and Who We Are in September by @queenofbrooklyn. They're both amazing David-centric fics written by people who clearly love him. And I know that OC fics aren't for everyone but if you do like them, V New Yorku by @pandolfo-malatesta has been a favorite of mine for years and is filled with amazing female characters. Anyway, please give these authors and their fics the love they deserve!

reminder to the newsies fandom in these times that many of the historical newsies were immigrants or children of immigrants. if you’re a fan of newsies, help defend and protect your neighbors, friends, family, and community members who are immigrants. immigrants are important, valued, and loved ❤️

i LOVE it when people write spot and jack as siblings.

Davey for sure gossips with mush about his crush on Jack

look at how proud Mush looks 🥺

jack kelly youtube channel would do numbers

The first time i was watching newsies with my mom seize the day came on, and she was like, "wtf i sang this song in chorus" so I was wondering if anybody else's parents who were in chorus sang this song???

You're telling me they AREN'T in love with eachother??? Ok buddy

still crazy that this was used as a promotional image

This is so specific for me that I’m shocked to the CORE

Headcanon: Window Smudgies

Jack love to smudge his face up against the windows right after Sarah finishes cleaning them, just to get a reaction out of her. She always yells his name, half-scolding, half-laughing, while he plays innocent like he has no idea what she’s mad about. And even though she acts exasperated, the truth is, she thinks it’s adorable. And because she makes him, Jack always tries his best to clean the mess up, but of course, Sarah ends up going behind him and doing it again because, despite his efforts, he never quite gets it right. It’s just another one of those little moments they share that makes her smile.

gentle reminder that newsies is more than just silly gay boys dancing. newsies is political whether you like it or not. the main message of the show is political.

I miss jack kelly 💔💔💔

Here is a list of books that Project 2025 is looking to ban and the reasons for each.

These are the books they are afraid of. These are the books we need to be reading.
