Summary
The song mentioned and quoted in this story was written in 1897, with music by John Sylvester Fearis, and lyrics by Jessie Brown Pounds.
The phonograph was invented in 1877, so it's possible the Jacobs family would have had one, possibly bought/received during better financial times. -

Summary
"You are..." Katherine paused, and David tilted his head so he could see her as she stared up at the roof of their tent. "You are like the man the Ancients talked about. David? He battled a giant, Goliath."
David hummed, and Katherine sighed. "His giant was smaller, though, but he was on his own."
She looked over at him, and she smiled, but her face still hinted at the bitter sadness beneath it. "But at least he had a choice." -

“What about friends?” Jack asked.
A small smile crept on to the other boy’s face as he grabbed Jacks hands and linked his two pointer fingers together and then switched them.
“Friends,” David said as he signed it on his own.
“Is that what we are?” He asked. Jack just nodded his head as he focused on how to make the sign look as perfect as David’s.There in a quiet classroom, empty of everybody but two boys, a friendship began.

Summary
Davey Jacobs had been teaching at Newsboy Primary School for years now. Known as one of the more serious and strict teachers, he’s very much surprised when it’s announced that he'll be the one directing the school nativity. Partially considering he’s Jewish. To make things worse, he’s assigned a teaching assistant who can be a tad chaotic. A shared ex, a little white lie, and a festive miracle make it a Nativity none of them will ever forget

Summary
After surviving the Hunger Games, Davey Jacobs and Jack Kelly are still trying to adjust back to a normal life. Except there's no chance of a normal life ever again, not while they live in the public eye and their choices are not their own, and even their relationship is tainted by the Capitol's influence. Then, just as they think they might be finding some stability, the universe throws one last surprise at them.
Now Davey and Jack are going back into the Hunger Games, but this time, they have no intentions of playing along with the president's rules. They are, after all, the Newsboys of Manhattan, and it's their responsibility to spread the news. And when they're through, the whole world will know.

Summary
Most of Davey’s life as a prince was easy.
He had his duties, sure. Lessons to take, ceremonies to attend, meetings to sit in on. Most of them were at least fairly easy, if not rivetingly interesting.
In fact, he liked the lessons. He’d always enjoyed reading, and learning in general, and he’d never minded spending his mornings tucked away in the library or with a tutor, learning history or studying policies or practicing his mapmaking or whatever else he was told to do. He didn’t hate meetings as much as either of his siblings, either, although they did get pretty boring, pretty often. Ceremonies weren’t the most fun, but they were tolerable.
In fact, there was really only one part of his life that he hated without a doubt.
Sword fighting lessons.

Summary
Jack knew the different strategies and tactics for interrogation. He knew there were ones for guilt tactics, awarding behavior, and fear tactics. He knew the one David was trying to use on him was fear.
But f*ck. Jack would be lying if he said he wasn't turned on by this.
Jack shivered as he felt Davey's breath on his neck from his whispered threats. He felt more sweat roll down his back as he felt the cold blade of the knife against his neck.
