Just Some Wonderful Headcanons About Our Favorite People
The Newsies Go To the Fair
(co-written by OtterSandwich)
So the fair comes to Manhattan
It's a big deal
Les and Romeo beg for hours
It didn't actually take that much convincing
Race just liked seeing them beg
Jack immediately grabs Katherine
They get on the ferris wheel
Jack's inner romantic is showing
Katherine loves it
Crutchie's leg is not helpful
He can't ride on a lot of the rides
HOWEVER
He can ride the merry-go-round
So he does
For hours
Romeo joins him
Romeo is a child at heart
He's even more childish than Les
Les is the only one who's technically allowed to act like a little kid
Race decides to play some games
He throws rings at bottles
He squirts water guns
He tosses baseballs are cans
Race is lonely
Albert didn't come
He's nothing without the other half of the terrible two
Albert is actually there
No one knows
He got a job to make some extra money
Albert is wearing a fake mustache so no one recognizes him
He's at the goldfish booth
Everytime he sees a newsie, he ducks down
Quite suspicious
Elmer and Finch look at the weird foods
Finch dares Elmer to eat four sticks of fried butter
Elmer is the dare god
He accepts
Elmer makes it through half a stick
Finch is covered in vomit
Finch throws up too
It's really messy
The family next to them starts puking
They start a wave of throw up
The staff look horrified
They know they'll have to clean it up
Albert uses his fake mustache as a rag to clean
Race sees his best friend
He has an internal compass
Race points 'The Accusing Finger'
Albert flees with shame
Race chases after him
Henry, Jojo, and Buttons go off towards the direction of the magic show
Henry gets separated
Jojo and Buttons are frantic
They find him
Henry was mistaken for one of the acrobats
He's on a tightrope
Jojo and Buttons scream at him to get down
The people watching are more entertained with the argument than the flips
The three of them miss the magic show
Davey is just walking with Les
Les is holding a goldfish
Davey is proud
Les lost the game though
Badly
Albert took pity on him
Les and Davey still didn't recognize him
Albert was talking in a Russian accent
It was quite good
Specs, Mush, Smalls, and Tommy Boy are all looking at the animals
Smalls bought a bunny
He named it Porcupine
No one knows why
Specs is watching the ducklings
He almost bought one
Unlike Smalls, he has control over his impulses
He didn't buy one
Specs wished he did though
Tommy Boy and Mush are fighting by the pigs
They place a bet on which one will be the heaviest
Race has really rubbed off on them
Mush thinks it'll be Princess
Tommy Boy thinks that Chris P. Bacon will weigh more
This is tearing apart their friendship
They don't talk for the rest of the day
The car ride home is awkward at best
Elmer and Finch are trying to get away from each other
Tommy Boy keeps flipping Mush off
Princess won, and he's salty about it
Jack and Katherine are all canoodley
Race is suspiciously missing
He chased Albert all the way back
Les' goldfish died
Davey is holding a crying Les
Smalls is cooing over his bunny
Specs is holding all of Porcupine's stuff
Crutchie and Romeo are sound asleep
Somehow the merry-go-round tired them out
Jojo and Buttons are fussing over Henry
It's very tense
