    Summary

    Racetrack Higgins always thought it would be his own vices that got him into trouble one day; it turns out his Ma does it for him. When Ma Higgins crosses the local drug lord and leaves him high and dry with a target on his back, Race is saved by a mysterious stranger who gives him a safe place to hide—a short-tempered and anti-social stranger covered in horrifying scars, with a past as dark as the marks on his body. However, the longer Race spends in the Brooklyn house, the more he discovers about the boy beneath the scars: a boy who is just as trapped as Race and twice as damaged.

    Befriending the two men who live in as hired help, and chipping away at the mysterious "boss" and his walls, Race might even find a place to call home.

    Summary

    “Davey really does tell himself that this is ridiculous and he definitely should not go along with it. So, how he ends up rolling his eyes, sliding on the engagement ring and preparing to go lie his way into some free cake, he's really not entirely sure.”

    -

    Jack comes across a flyer advertising free cake samples to all engaged couples, but he’s missing one important thing: a fiancé.

    He does, however, have Davey, a fake ring, and a lot of enthusiasm.

    Summary

    Each chapter title is a word. Each chapter is under 1000 words. Some barely cut it, and others are very, very safe inside that margin. The following chapter pertains to the word and is written based on Newsies. Comment to get a chapter after a word you like, or feel would be fitting. The story itself is in the same world and it set in Post Strike New York, although it has a lot of flashbacks.

    Summary

    Spot was in the habit of never owing anyone anything. If he needed something, he made sure to pay for it in full right away. But Racetrack never insisted on collecting a return, so a person's debt to him stretched on forever, giving Race all the power. If there was one thing Spot hated, it was a loss of power. And so he had vowed to never, ever be in the position of owing Racetrack a favor. No matter what.
