[we-are-inevitable]

woke up in a cold sweat to remind people that while davey has it better than jack and the other newsboys, he is still poor. he is still a child working on the streets. he is still a child who had to drop out of school, put his life on hold, to feed his family. he’s not well-off by any means and i am a little baffled at how many people seem to think he’s the “rich one.” in reality, they were probably struggling for a long time before davey stopped going to school- i can’t imagine esther and mayer would just spring this on him, or even want him to lose his education- and they were using every last penny to make it work but it just wasn’t enough. davey, sarah, and les leaving school was a last resort because the jacobs family is poor. they are poor. davey is not the rich one. davey is not the mom friend just because he has a family. davey is a scared teenage boy who wants to do right by the people he loves, who has the world on his shoulders, who is desperate to help his family out of the hole the systems in power have pushed them into. david jacobs is not the rich one.

The Jacobs siblings are the most stubborn people on the planet so Esther and Mayer probably thought it was a win just convincing Les to stay behind

I wonder what excuse was given to the Jacobs parents the night that David and Sarah spent in Pulitzer’s basement borrowing his printing press.

Les: yeah, they are breaking and entering but they found an adult chaperone to go with them so it’s fine.

This davey doodle was originally part of a mini Javey comic but I think it’s WAY funnier without context

David Jacobs wears his tie in a perfect four-in-hand knot and has his vest buttoned and doesn't lie because lying is wrong and he holds Les's hand when they cross the street if it's busy and is home by sundown and dutifully does his homework even when he hates it because that's what's expected of him and does his best to avoid causing problems wherever he goes, he keeps his head down and does his best to fly below the radar.

Davey Jacobs loosens his tie as soon as he's out the front door and rolls up his sleeves and drops his vest on the floor as soon as he has the chance and he laughs when Les starts a wrestling match or steals somebody else's wooden sword to start a swordfight on the street and he kisses his mother's cheek and says sorry mama I lost track of time when he gets home two hours later than planned and he's loud and talkative and brash and a little impulsive, he's in over his head and swimming against the current instead of letting himself drown, he's go no idea what he's doing but he's figuring it out for himself instead of letting other people tell him what to do.

YES YES YES I LOVE NEWSIES AND STARDEW VALLEY!! TAKE MY MONEY

Dear newsies fandom: if i made a newsies game would yall enjoy it? Im think about making it like Stardew Valley where each day you play as a newsies an try and sell newspapers to make a days pay, but its also like the sims, your character can get sick or have an “insanity” bar. And if you play as certain characters you can get different mini games :3

THE COLLECTION IS COMPLETE

[tiredandoptimistic]

The core of Newsies is that Jack is a charisma based yapper and Davey is an intelligence based yapper.
