CAN WE PLEASE HAVE MORE OF DAVEY’S TERRIBLY UGLY CAT I LOVE HERRRRRRRRR

(i'm so glad there's hype for a pet oc i made on a whim. i don't know why this cat is so special to me but she is.)

i honestly wish i had more of her - the most i have for 'davey and his terrible cat au' is a bunch of snippets, most of which i've already posted, and a very vague outline of plot.

the idea is that davey volunteers at a pet shelter between work and school and it's his whole life. he used to volunteer at his hometown shelter in high school, and he got really mad about how some of the volunteers treated the animals who needed more support. no one wanted to go near gollum. and it wasn't just 'cause she's a hairless breed, plenty of people like hairless breeds, to the point where it's kind of a problem. it's because she needed so much work. she was angry, she'd spit, she'd bite, she'd hiss, she wouldn't go near anyone and if anyone came near her it didn't go well. but we know davey has a soft spot for strays. we know he won't give up on things even when he really, really should. so he didn't give up on her - he'd sit in her kennel and read his books, just sitting with her in silence until she got up the courage to come near him. he'd talk to her. he'd wait until she touched him to pet her - and even then he'd stop if she seemed frightened. because that's all she was, FRIGHTENED. she wasn't a bad cat, she was just scared. and eventually, he adopted her.

where the plot ACTUALLY begins is the shelter davey currently volunteers for is running an event they annually run during exam season where people can come in and interact with the more sociable animals. it helps the animals socialize, it helps students destress, it helps bring people in a position to adopt into the shelter and it encourages people in a position to volunteer to do so, so it's a win-win all around. the problem is that jack starts volunteering afterwards, and davey really doesn't think he's cut out for it. volunteering isn't just having a bunch of pets with none of the responsibility, it's hard work that can sometimes be really heartbreaking, and he's just not sure jack's gonna last.

they become friends, davey's hesitations aside, and obviously jack is a little enamoured with him - so when davey mentions an ex-boyfriend off the cuff, jack tries to gage some interest. "ex-boyfriend, huh? wonder what that sucker did to mess that up." to which davey responds lightheartedly "oh, well my cat hated him, so he had to go." obviously davey's mostly joking - yes, gollum is distrustful of everyone but davey, but that ex was also just. not a good guy in general. but jack doesn't know that, so cue jack going out of his way to get the gollum seal of approval so he can date this man.

and a snippet for your convenience:

“Oh, Davey...” Jack tries to hide his cringe. “You put your cat in a sweater?”

Davey flushes beautifully.

“They’re medical!” He insists, hugging Gollum defensively to his chest. “You try going through winter with single-glazed windows and no fur!”

Jack raises a pointed eyebrow.

“So is there a medical reason it's a Star Fleet uniform, or...?”

Davey tries his best to hide his spreading blush behind Gollum’s skinny body.

“The Etsy store was having a sale...”

#that snippet is not my best she's currently in the 'i got two lines of dialogue in my head and had to see where they went' stage #we'll fine-tune her eventually. #newsies #uksies #davey's terrible cat au #david jacobs #davey jacobs #jack kelly #javid #javey #pigeon scribbles #fic thoughts

one day 92sies will reveal why jacks dad was actually in jail and thats the day i will know peace.

#newsies #jack kelly #was he a bad dude or a struggling father #i need to know #bc stage jack just wants his dad Back #and movie jack wants so desperately to be part of a family but is he mourning what he had or longing for something he never experienced #keeps me up at night

[b-rainlet]

Ngl, everyday I get a little mad that Spot doesn’t have an introduction song

#I watched the 92 movie and was fully expecting a Disney Villain kinda song (but more lowkey because he is framed a 'minor antagonist') #And then when I watched the stage production I thought 'For sure they added one' but NO #Spot in my heart I know you had a song that included the Manhattan boys snapping their fingers #I just know it #newsies

[baura-bear]

ok I know it’s just because they need to get Katherine’s desk and chair on stage in a way that makes sense but like,,, that fact that it’s being pushed on by newsies because even though she is helping them she is also actively exploiting them to further her career and without their struggling she wouldn’t have her status in society or this opportunity to prove herself in the newswriting world. 

#symbolism amiright #like it's the exact same symbolism that comes from newsies pushing pulitzer on stage #i love katherine plumber do not twist my words #katherine plumber #uksies #newsies uk

personally. and this might just be me. but personally. i think that Jack and Race could both have saved enough to move on if they wanted. i think you see it in the things they have: how Jack always has art supplies just a little bit nicer than he'd be able to steal with worrying about being caught. how Race lets himself take pride in his appearance, his vest matching his pants and his pocket square always net and clean.

i think the real thing that stops them from going anywhere is loyalty and trust and the bond that comes with growing up like this. there are always older kids who can spare a nickel for dinner when a little kid has a bad day selling. there are always older kids around to patch up a skinned knee and the torn pants that come with it. there are always older kids around to promise that things will getter better, get easier, turn into something they can handle. Jack and Race both relied on those older kids when they were little, and they know there are little kids who are relying on them. and it's barely even a question, you know?

sure, they could save that quarter for themselves, or they could quietly pay Kloppmann with it to make sure everyone gets inside when it's supposed to snow. they could put those last few pennies away, or they could buy enough food to split with the kids who had a bad day. they could be saving to chase their dreams, or they could go to the doctor and get something for the ten-year-old who hasn't been able to stop coughing for two months and still needs to be out in the cold selling if he wants to survive.

and i think. personally. both Jack and Race talk a big game about it all, love to be blowhards and braggarts and act like one day, just you see, we'll leave all of you behind and find something better. but really. honestly. they and everyone know that there's something to these relationships that makes leaving a lot harder than saving money. so instead they show it in their little ways. Race is a smooth-talking gambler who could win a hand of poker against a politician and talk somebody into spending their last penny on yesterday's news, but he's also been one of these kids since he was young and scrawny and fighting to survive. how could he abandon them when they never abandoned him? and Jack is a charmer who knows just how to push the right buttons, just how to flirt and just how to make up a convincing headline, but he's been one of these kids since he lost everything and didn't know how to keep his head above water. how could he let them down when they're the only people who have never, ever let him down?

and that's why, personally. I think Jack and Race are still here because they care, not because they have to be.

#also btw. london race is the Most valid stage Race. no further questions #ben cook is wonderful. ryan breslin is wonderful. josh barnett understands smth fundamental abt race that idk if I can even articulate #the whole london cast just. they get it. i swear it's like they pulled the newsies that exist in my brain out of imagination land and into #reality lmao. especially michael's jack oh my god. oh my god his jack. anyway #newsies #jack kelly #racetrack higgins #west endsies
