Give me Newsies who developed or were born with disabilities over their time in the refuge and growing up in the streets of New York.

We obviously have Crutchie, who crushed his leg in a trolley accident during the trolley strikes, but how about the others?

Kid Blink, who's eye was cut badly during a fight and totally lost all vision in that eye, leaving a nasty scar where he was sliced. He jokes that he's secretly a pirate to the younger kids because he wears an eyepatch, but the real reason he has it is to hide the scar because he is embarrassed and ashamed of his scaring and how scary it can look.

JoJo, who was born with a vision impairment that makes everything extremely blurry through his perspective. Somebody always needs to read the headline to him in the morning, and he sometimes needs a selling partner to lead him in the correct direction without getting run over by a carriage.

Splint, who's broken her arm so many times and in so many different ways that it's practically unusable. It's covered in nasty scars and bruises and is swollen and bumpy from where the bone never fully set back properly.

Elmer, who deals with chronic fatigue and sometimes having to be dragged away from selling for at least a little bit because Spot can see that if he doesn't sit down soon, he will pass out from ache and exhaustion.

Albert, who lost most of his hearing in a fight at the refuge and has Katherine teach him and a few of the others some sign language so he can finally communicate as well as he can with the other newsies.

Shoutout 2 The Brooklyn girls actually interacting w the Manhattan newsies, btw. Shoutout 2 Henry turning to Mack & going 'that's a big word!' when Roosevelt says that the future is bright & prosperous. Shoutout 2 Specs & Stray being related. Shoutout 2 Lillie-Pearl saying that her Spot is closest to Davey in act two & adding 'making up rhymes with Davey' to her list of things she likes. Shoutout 2 Pips & JoJo hugging. Shoutout 2 Ritz elbowing Romeo in the side when he pretends that he actually had a chance with Katherine. Shoutout 2 Bobbie saying that if Splint were to have a love interest, it'd be Buttons.

So remember my headcanon that Splint and Albert were siblings, but Splint was the only person who knew? Remember that? Yeah, okay, so I finally wrote something to go with it.

---

Dear Albert

I don't know if I'll actually give this to you. Maybe I'll get nervous at the rally, and this letter will remain in my pocket forever, but either way, I need to get this out of my system somehow.

I know for all these years, you've known me as the Brooklyn girl who's constantly breaking her arm and hurting herself, which is true. I am quite accident prone, but so are you! I've seen you get into reckless fights with the Delancey's on many occasions, and I must admit, I have cheered quite loudly when you defeated them. Nice to know we have the same slightly violent tendencies.

I'm getting sidetracked, so allow me to get back to the main reason for this letter. There's no easy way to say this, so here it is.

I am your big sister.

I don't even know if you remember me when I was at home. You were still quite young when I left and became a Newsie. You were tiny, but still as loud and fierce as ever, though. Your attitude seems to have stuck with you your whole life, and I'm glad. You certainly know how to stand up for yourself.

I'm sorry I left you in that house with mom and dad. I know how they could get after work and how they got when they were agitated.

I almost cried of relief when I saw you selling with Jack when you were six. While I wish you would've joined us in Brooklyn, I was glad to see that you'd gotten out, and I trust that Kelly boy to take care of you.

I'm so proud of you, I always have been.

When I saw you punch Oscar in the face, when I saw you selling for the first time, when I saw you chasing down the street after Racetrack and JoJo, knowing you'd found things you enjoy and people you really care for, I was so proud.

I hope you always remember that. Your big sister loves you so much and is so proud of you.

Soak 'em Red.

~ Your sister, Splint Constance

Albert sobbed as he read the final line of the letter, tears now spilling down his face like a river.

"It was in her pocket when we found her. I thibk she was going to give it to you at the rally, but..." Spot explained, tears pricking her own eyes as she did. "I'm so sorry, kid."

"She's gone, Spot." Albert whispered, most hope gone from his voice. "She's gone before I even got to know her."

Spot stayed silent for a few moments, wiping her eyes quickly. "...She loved you, Al. Even if it was from afar. You were her little brother, and you mattered so much to her."

"I know, Spot." Albert said quietly, rereading the last few lines of the letter again. "I know."

NEVER FEAR BROOKLYNs HERE…

I’m so stoked with how this turned out… these girlsies are so much fun to doodle with each of their unique looks… I’ve been wanting to do something like this since I did the glamsies pano - I’m trying to get a boysies one done but with the huge number of them it’s kinda stressing me out - and so here are the Brooklyn girlsies heading off to ruin Pulitzer’s day…
