Summary
As World War II slowly approaches, David Jacobs comes across the woman who ruined his reputation and his love life. But as his time comes to an end, in order to let go of his past, Jacobs intends to burn the letters his husband wrote him during their youth. Yet, with this woman in his house, he couldn't bring himself to it. Preserving every moment of Kelly's life, Jacobs--the last of the Manhattan Newsies--relives through an era he never told anyone. Not even to his husband. Now, as this woman enters Kelly's studio, she surrenders a pair of keys to that particular studio and walks away. Leaving David Jacobs alone and cold once again. With only minutes waiting, David Jacobs becomes the center of Kelly's life. With a candle in front of him, Jacobs is willing to do anything to preserve his husband's legacy. Even if it meant to forgive the unforgivable.

“What’s a ‘faggot’?” by Amflanda

Summary
“Then what’s this about, huh? Why are you fighting so hard? Why are you defending them before your own mother?”
“Because I’m one of them!” Davey snapped.
He clapped his hand to his mouth. All the anger that filled his skull seeped out in an instant. In its place came fear. Icy cold as the gravity of what he had said struck him. His mother stared at him with something between shock and hurt.
She looked up at Mayer with teary eyes. “Our son’s a faggot. How… what did we do wrong?” She cried into Mayer’s arms.
“Leave. Now.” Mayer gritted. The words were final, leaving no room for rebuttal. Not that Davey had any. He could not stand being in the restaurant any longer than he had to.
—
Or, Davey comes out in the midst of an argument and gets kicked out. Thankfully, Jack is there for the fallout.

Summary
A tragedy occurs in the Jacobs family, preventing David and Sarah from getting into college. As much as Davey adores his family, he can't stand the feeling of guilt anymore and packs up his life to move to a small but lively village in the English countryside. Jack Kelly, who had no interest of attending college, spontaneously follows him out of the country, accidentally forcing his friend, Antonio, into it. The three of them eventually make themselves at home. Soon they notice strange things happening in the town, and are curious to investigate.
This is inspired Agatha Christie's Miss Marple series of books.

Summary
“I could name a thing or two that doesn’t do you any favors,” says David.
“Oh, yeah? Go on, then.”
David shakes his head. “You’re not gonna listen to me anyway. What’s the point of giving you good, honest advice if you’re not going to take it?”
“If that’s really what you thought, Dave, you’d never speak a word to me again.”
-
David goes back to school and everything changes, for better or worse. Sometimes it takes falling out of orbit to put a name to the gravitational pull holding us all together.

Summary
“Are you okay?” Someone - a boy - asks. He has a newsboy’s hat on, a checkered shirt not buttoned up properly, and brown pants and suspenders. A cane hangs limply at his belt, and his face is like stone.
“Fine, self-pity ain’t hurt nobody,” Cowgirl laughs wetly, scrubbing at her face.
“Gotta be pretty bad if yer sobbin’ in an alley,” He counters, leaning against the wall above her head.
Or, the Newsies movie if Jack had a twin sister, and soulmates existed.

Summary
Jack just knew, deep in his chest, that Davey wasn't telling him something. He was a bad liar to begin with, but the shifty glances and hasty exits had almost grown to be too much as of late. There was something happening and Jack was ridiculously out of the loop, which was beyond frustrating. Wasn't he supposed to be in the loop? Weren't he and Dave supposed to be best friends, or selling partners or co-presidents or whatever? He was tired of trying to catch that anxious green gaze, tired of chasing after answers.
What in the world could've been bothering Davey enough to push him to this level of silence? Jack was bound and determined to get to the bottom of it, even if it meant pushing his other priorities aside.

Summary
Sarah Jacobs was tired. Tired of being stuck, tired of her father breathing down her neck, tired of being an outcast, and tired of the same thing every day. She wanted freedom.
It's just The Little Mermaid but with Newsies characters. :) I don't own the characters or the plot.
