NEWSIES S6 Style
Katherine Plummer: Jane Hayward
Jack Kelly: Mason McCarthy
Davey Jacobs: Skylar Warbler
Les Jacobs: Myron Muskovitz
Crutchie: Spencer Porter
Spot Conlon: Clint (Vocal Adrenaline, I know it’s not the right club I don’t care it would work really well)
Joseph Pulitzer: Rodrick Meeks
And I’m struggling with Medda Larkin but no on could pull her off but Jane, and Jane deserves to be Katherine so maybe they bring back Mercedes or Santana like they did for Grease.
All the other ensemble roles are filled by Warblers and other left over members of ND (Alistair). Kitty and Madison are both dancers in the theater scene and Kitty is Pulitzers secretatry, and Madison is the walker on the street that Jack (Mason) approaches and gets shot down by.
Newsies high school fanfic outline
David has math with Bumlets, history with Crutchy and Blink, science with Tommy boy and Specs, and English with Dutchy and Kathrine. He meets Jack when he gets assigned to tutor him in English to help get his grades better than last semester’s. Dave never really spoke to any of the Newsies he shared classes with so when he and Jack went to the Lodging house to grab homework to work on for a tutoring session, he got to formally meet all of them. He also didn’t know they were called anything other than their legal names, so when Jack said he shared classes with his friends on the way to the Lodge, David had no clue who he was talking about.
Dave tutors Jack in English (his worst subject, ironic) start of second semester junior year (most of the characters are going to be juniors except for a few which I will explain in a different post). At first David found Jack kind of annoying, but over time, he grows fond of him. After a few weeks of everyday sessions Jack’s grade starts to show improvement so, jack takes the two of them to go get coffee one weekend. While they’re out Jack asks Dave if he can help him on an assignment for a different class, he agrees and they drive down to the Lodging house to grab the project and head back to the coffee shop where they could get more peace and quiet then staying at the house.
The moment Jack opens the door the two are greeted with Pie-eater and Bumlets on the floor, wrestling for a Wii remote, being cheered on by Finch and Romeo, Racetrack filming the entire thing, and everyone watching like it’s a completely normal event. Jack pulls David passed that, and up the stairs to the bunks while David attempts to look back to watch the fight. As they walk over to Jacks bunk, David gets a whiff of what smells like boys locker room. Jack obviously doesn’t notice given he’s used to it, so Dave doesn’t comment and try’s to ignore it. Jack grabs his school bag and they head back downstairs to leave. Pie and Bumlets, still fighting, dash up the stairs, Bumlets behind Pie, accidentally hits Daves shoulder, causing him to loose balance and fall down the stairs. He grabs Jack to regain balance but ends up taking Jack down with him (forth floor to the ground). The two fall and Jack ends up right on top of Davey with their faces like 5 inches away from each other. They hear a laugh and Jack looks up to find Race standing in front of Kloppman’s desk writing something down. Jack knows Race will tell the whole house so he quickly gets off Dave, walks over to him, hits Race in the back of the head and whispers something to him, inaudible to Dave who is still picking himself up off the ground. David helps Jack regather his homework and the two awkwardly leave the house and get into Jack’s truck. Once they get in, they sit there awkwardly, trying to find something to say. Dave blurts out and apology and Jack apologies for Bumlets knocking him down. A few seconds pass and they drive back to the coffee shop. It’s around 3pm when they get there and they stay until closing at 6pm.
That’s all I have written out on paper so far but it’s all in my head and I will try to get the grade list and first chapter out soon.
Update on the Newsies highschool fic
I will be posting the outline of the story soon, probably later tomorrow if I remember. unfortunately I have state testing in the morning. But soon it will come.
Modern Newsies HC’s for my AU Part: 6
All the Newsies share hand and shower towels and they just wash them and lay them out hotel style (all the towels have at least one hole, they’re old). As the Jacob’s start to get closer to the Newsies, they start to learn their birthdays. They get each of them a new hand and shower towel for their birthday, in which Sarah will embroider their name on to both towels in their favorite color.
Modern Newsies HC’s for my AU Part: 5
Each Newsie has a mug that only they use. They have a cabinet in their kitchen specifically to store everyone’s mugs. Each cup is special/specific to each person, some made the one they use and others were given or bought theirs. Each mug is labeled at the bottom with the Newsies nickname and all the ones that aren’t labeled are for anyone to use.
(i thought of this while making hot chocolate and i grabbed my favorite mug and was like, huh hc time)
Modern Newsies HC’s for my AU Part: 4
Nights with the Newsies can either go two ways, everyone goes to sleep at around the same time, or just the younger Newsies then the rest are downstairs doing who knows what. Once everyone is asleep making a noise could be life or death, and by death I mean a pillow to the face or back of the head. They hate when people talk when they’re trying to sleep so if you walk through the Lodging House at night it’s dead silent and I mean dead silent. If you make a noise that isn’t controllable, like talking, many of the boys will throw pillows or mumble/yell to go back to sleep at the source of the sound. Some of them like snore or sleep talk (which is very rare but has happened) but they know who it is because of how used to it they are. Mornings aren’t any better, a lot of the boys are not morning people in the slightest.
I know this like doesn’t make any sense but it does in my head and will probably make more sense on paper.
Snitch and Neville Longbottom look like long lost brothers and I am going to stand by it
You can’t tell me that modern day au’s of both fandoms compare the two to the movie counterparts. Specs saying Snitch looks like Neville and like George or Fred saying Neville looks like Snitch. Obviously in modern day au’s the two fandoms would be movies in the other universe.
can we give jake more love please
Modern Newsies HC’s for my AU Part: 3
There’s a room on first floor of the lodging house, right next to Kloppman’s called the sick/guest room. It has four beds in it, one in each corner, and a bathroom with a bathtub/shower. They use this room when one of them gets sick so they can basically quarantine them. Once four people occupy the room and more people get sick, they either have people share beds or they go back to sleeping in their own bunks because once one Newsie gets sick, they all get sick. They also use this room for guests, so if say the Jacob’s (once they get closer in the story), or Medda or whatever, ever need somewhere to stay, they would sleep in that room. There is one window and that’s on the wall you see when you walk in, right next to the bathroom entrance. It’s a rectangular room with the longer sides having the room entrance and the bathroom entrance. The beds are backed into all four corners, touching the walls.

They each have their own labeled drawers in the bathroom with their name written on a piece of tape thats suck right above the handle. They keep their medication, their toothbrush, deodorant, chapstick, etc. Any toiletries you wouldn’t normally share go in your own drawer. Everything else like lotion, maybe toothpaste, possibly hair care stuff, shaving cream, anything you would probably leave on your counter. They also have designated cabinets for like medical supplies, extra towels, toilet paper, tissues, blah blah blah. The bathroom is set up the same way it is in the movie minus the barrels Snipeshooter is like using as a bathtub. Because they don’t have showers in the movie I’m expanding the bathroom so there can be showers in there. So right next to the four stalls will be four curtain showers, one of them having a handicap bar and seat for Crutchy. The only bathtubs they have is in a room I’m calling the sick/guest room that will be talked about in the next update.
Modern Newsies HC’s for my AU Part: 1
They all share clothes. Like dating or not they all share clothes. You’ll find like Boots wearing Snoddy’s hoodie because it’s baggy on him, or Romeo sleeping in Blink’s shirt because it’s comfortable. Unless they’ve specifically requested no one else wears it, it will be shared. Even more likely for people who share a bunk like Kid Blink and Racetrack or Jake and Snipeshooter to share clothes.
Lodging House/Bunk Analysis
I watched Carrying the Banner with my sister over and over again to figure out where everyone in newsies sleeps and all that fun stuff. Based on what I saw this is a rough sketch of where everyone would be. (the empty space is the bathrooms)

Characters that give off the same vibes:
Newsie.
explain your gender in 10 words or less without using boring words like “male”, “female”, “nonbinary”, “masculine”, “feminine” or “androgynous”.

NETFLIX GOT RID OF NEWSIES AND I WANT TO CRY IN A HOLE NOW PUT IT BACK
Prologue
“Bastard!”
“You’ll regret saying that to me, princess.”
“You guys really suck with the nicknames, ya know that right?” (Go figure I say that with an already forming shiner)
‘Man, I really know how to piss people off. Just lovely.’
I s’pose I ought to tell ya exactly who I am ‘long with how I get myself into issues like that.
I’m super into Newsies right now. I loveee it. And as in most fandoms I get obsessed with, I have latched onto a few ships. And it has come to my attention that JackCrutchie apparently gets a lot of hate? So Um basically I loveee discussing Newsies and like I don’t care what you ship as long as it’s not a pro ship but if you’re like super anti-JackCrutchie to the point where u think u have to explain to me why u don’t like the ship, please just block me. 🙂
reblog if the first musical you listened to was not Hamilton
i think it's high time I show you guys my newsies 2d designs bc I draw them ALL the time ... especially in my chemistry book LMAO. coming soon ...... in the meantime have ralbert :)
If I wrote something about your amputee Jack would you want to read it?
YESS OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMFG OMGG YES ANON PLEADE PLEASR PLEADE
headcanon that there's HEAPS of spare beds in the lodging house but the newsies just choose to sleep in the same beds hit post
so albert has like long-ish hair, right? he puts his hair up in double braids more for practicality's sake than anything. he has two younger sisters, that's how he knows how to braid.
now consider race who sees albert doing his hair up and watches so intently that he learns. sometimes the girlsies in brooklyn let him practice on their hair, just so he can offer to do it for albert. albert doesn't say yes very often.
but, one day he does. his wrists hurt and his arms are tired. he sits down at the bottom of the staircase of the lodging house, race sits a step higher. albert lays his head on race's thigh, just a little bit, and race nearly explodes. he tries not to pull on the braid too hard (spot's main complaint) and albert sighs happily as he feels race's fingers card through his hair. it's music to races ears. he lets himself smile, softly, smittenly, as he 'accidentally' strokes albert's cheek on his way to get a new strand of hair.
race wants this all the time.
give me amputee jack. jack who got his hand mangled by a printing press and his father used the last of his money to get him to a hospital. jack has a stump at the middle of his forearm . jack sells more papers not only because he's charismatic but also because his shirt sleeve has a knot tied in it where his left hand would be. jack and crutchie who meet and become close because of their physical ailments.
