Summary
“Hey look there's Denton!” Specs exclaimed, pointing down the sidewalk where Denton was rushing to meet them. Jack turned quickly but he was soon disappointed when he realized the man was walking alone.
“Where is everyone?” David asked as soon as Denton was in earshot, the urgency clear in his voice.
“The judge said they’d already been bailed out, they didn’t even make it to court,” Denton explained.
The strike takes an unexpected turn for the worse after a particularly bloody protest and Jack has to grapple with his guilt and an unwarranted betrayal.

Summary
After the strike and creating the Newsboy's union, David Jacobs thought his life couldn't take any more unexpected twists or turns. But that all went downhill with Jack Kelly.
That loud, cocky, very good looking best friend of his.
But Jack can't feel like that about him, right? Well an invitation to a private booth in Miss Medda's theatre may prove otherwise.

Ain't It a Fine Life by justagrumpynerd
Fandom: Newsies (1992), Newsies - All Media Types
16 Dec 2022
Summary
A look into the lives of a pack of street rats just trying to make it during the turn of the century, and maybe being able to find some happiness along the way.
A collection of newsies fics I've written over time, because this is my comfort media and I love these boys very much. All of them take place in the same timeline, but any of them can be read on their own.
Disclaimer: they are written from a movie-verse perspective since that's what I grew up watching; that's not meant to gatekeep/deter anyone, just if there are any inconsistencies with the Broadway musical that's probably why.
Will update as time permits. Enjoy <3

Crash Landing by dcveyjacobs

Summary
Jack stuck out his arms freely and leaned back. He barely heard two words of Davey telling him to be careful before his balance slipped.
Alas, he went too far forward—his thighs lost what little grip they had against the railing, and he slipped further.
And fell down the fire escape.
Or: Jack Kelly goes to visit one of his favourite newsboys, but has a bit of a crash landing...

But once he gets to know him, Jack Kelly turns his life upside down in a totally different way.(Previously called "Javid Meet-Ugly" but that is now the series name)

Summary
The folks said to be careful. Mama thought it was dangerous, having their names tied to political commentary like that. Pop said so long as Davey’s schoolwork didn’t suffer, he was allowed to pick up extra work however he liked.
Sarah said it wasn’t exactly like Davey had been forced into it, and of course he could bow out if he wanted, but since when did he back down from following Jack Kelly anywhere?
Les said it made sense—they’d made good partners leading the strike and selling papes, of course they’d partner up in this “political cartoon” thing, too.
Katherine said it was only a matter of time, that Jack had always been better with pictures than words; that he may have been the face of the strike, but David Jacobs was the Mouth.
