thinking about jack's betrayal again and

his friends are (justifiably) furious at him. mush calls him a sellout. spot and jojo push him. someone yells "you're a traitor jack!". a brooklyn newsie spits at him. jack has known most of these boys for years, he calls them his family, his brothers.

david doesn't even say anything, he just looks at him. jack has known this boy for all of four days, and yet the name he chooses to call out? davey

Sarah and Davey are the siblings who open up their lunch boxes and then immediately start pulling things out to switch because Esther always mixes up their likes but she really tries and they don't wanna say anything

Husk: Of course there is.

Angel: *completely flabbergasted* Well, don’t say it like this happens every day!

Husk: *completely head-over-heels* Oh, Angel.

companion piece to yesterday's

newsies 2012-2014 has deeefinitely come a long way in 10 years and thank god. happy anniversary (again)

[loving-jack-kelly]

here's the thing. jack is a gentle person who was forced into being tough and strong and fierce by circumstance. his hands are calloused and his knuckles are bruised when he picks flowers to display in the window by his bed and when he wipes away tears from a younger boy and when he braids the hair of a little girl who can't do it herself. and davey is a fierce, angry person who has learned to be gentle and quiet and pleasant by circumstance. he isn't used to being in a fist fight but when he stops trying to be otherwise, his words are sharp and pointed and direct even when he's offering comfort and kindness and wit. jack has never had the chance to just be gentle without fighting for it. davey has never allowed himself to exist without a filter.

based on an interaction i had with my brother:

davey: *cooking in the kitchen* be careful, there’s a hot rack on the floor.

jack: i have a hot rack.

davey: shut the fuck up.

~~~~~~~~

*alternate*

albert: *in the kitchen* be careful, there’s a hot rack on the floor.

race: i have a hot rack.

albert: nobody loves you.

Katherine: you have friends and i envy that Jack: we can share my friends Katherine: [looks at the newsies] Katherine: I don't want those.

Something I love about Javey is making them both think the other is out of their league. They both are convinced they couldn't possibly deserve one another and yet they're so in love.

Jack thinks Davey is smart and more sophisticated than him and has a real family so why would he want " a mess" like him when he could get so much better.

Davey thinks Jack is so confident and cool (and hot) and he admires how all the newsies easily listen to him. Jack is a natural born leader and has this energy to him that everyone likes. Davey can't imagine what its like to be like that and he thinks Jack would never want someone awkward like him.

And yet they match each other so perfectly and are exactly what the other needed. Davey needed to learn how to truly be himself and let go, hang out with the other newsies and become less uptight. Jack needed someone like Davey to understand him and talk to him logically and bring him down to earth instead of daydream land.

okay wait to everyone who’s been a newsies fan: has your current favorite character always been your favorite character?

[cowboy-caboodles]

confident davey is my favorite trope and i think we need more of it. hear me out.

jack, being known as the confident and charismatic leader of the manhattan newsies, always shamelessly flirting with anyone he can, never afraid to push the Delancy brothers (and others’) buttons, he’s jack kelly for christ’s sake. and then davey shows up, and everyone thinks he’s this uptight, quiet smart kid who has no business being on the streets selling papers, but he’s the first person who is able to get Jack Kelly to shut up and listen. so now the newsies are aware there’s something special about this kid, and they start to notice even more when jack loses his ability to think or function or act like his usual charming self the moment davey walks into the room.

idk maybe i’m a sucker for the old “nobody makes me lose my composure except this one person” trope. but like!! davey who shamelessly compliments jack in front of others!! davey who isn’t afraid to kiss him on the cheek at family dinner!! davey who has total control over jack’s charisma and he knows it!!
