the evil temptation to do a newsies ask blog with my art... perchance if I had some newsies asks I would answer them and draw them...

Jack can draw almost anybody if he tries hard enough, after a while he can create something that pretty much resembles them. Except for Davey, who he has tried drawing millions of times over, yet cannot seem to get just right.

Spot, realising he's in love with Race: Oh- oh no. Fuck- no why!?

[joeythefrog]

my little sister absolutely adores newsies, but she only likes the stage version and despises the 1992 version. (The stage version was the first one she saw, she's pretty young and still finds it distressing to see different people playing the same characters with different lines or plot points)

unfortunately for her, I prefer the 1992 version a lot of the time, so I'll be listening to carrying the banner (as example) in my room and when we pass a line that's different you can just hear. "Welcome to new yooork" "MUM, CHARLIES LISTENING TO THE HELL NOISE"

favourite sprace dynamic is when they're being kinda gay and one of them just goes "..uuh... what are you doing?" to the reply of "I don't know! What are you doing?!" before they sort of shift awkwardly and continue whatever they were doing but with more awareness
