"All you have is your fire, and the place you need to reach. Don't you ever tame your demons, but always keep them on a leash." Same characters, slightly different plot, and hopefully better writing. A lot more historically based and more concise. Read and review to let me know what you think! :-)

WIP Meet the Shelley sisters: Zelda is a sex worker at the Honey Pot and Maven is a synthetic flower factory worker by day and paid-by-the-line gossip columnist by night who longs to be an author. Their worlds collide with Jack Kelly's during the 1899 Newsboy Strike.

In 1985, Reagan was President, the Cold War threatened, and Coca-Cola changed the taste of its drink. For a group of teen boys in the rough parts of New York, life was full of temptations to fail, but best friends to depend on. 1980's AU of the Newsies 1992 movie cast.

Just Spot-centric blurbs and scenes from a fantasy!Newsies AU idea I've been kicking around and working with. Some are connected but not all. Any and all constructive criticism welcomed and even encouraged!

Newsies are missing throughout all of New York and no one is sure why. When the truth comes out, can the group of ragtags put a stop to it and pick up the pieces, or will Spot and the others lose their thrones? Rated M for language, violence, and adult themes.

Spot Conlon and Jack Kelly are the leaders of all the newsies in Brooklyn and Manhattan. They have a perfect system and boys who respect and look up to them. But what will happen when the two leaders let selfishness and pride break up their friendship? Fights will break out, romances will clash, and lives will be lost in an epic struggle to salvage both new and old relationships.

Just a bunch of random Newsies HC'S because there aren't a lot on here. If you have any ideas, send 'em in! I made all of these up (unless you send some in, then I'll credit you obviously)

Florence Cunningham was a seventeen year old spoilt brat who knew nothing more than riches and diamonds. Growing up in the high end of society always made sure that she had the best things in life, so much so that she never even noticed anyone below her. That was until one fatal night. She decided to run away from her problems for one day. But, a lot can happen in a day. OC/?

Sophia hated her life as an aristocrat. She wanted friends, and to live a carefree life. After she ran away and befriended Les, things were fine at first, but slowly took a turn (Hey guys! This is actually my first fic in 16 years. After bashing my old horribly written fic, a friend challenged me to write a brand new fic!)

Meant to be unfinished. Read I Don't Know: Rewrite instead.

Oscar and Jane were an odd couple to be friends but Oscar didn't mind. Despite everything and everyone, she was his best friend and he was her. But sleeping with your best friend is complicated. Especially when feelings are involved. (Possible oneshot/possible multi-chapters)

The newsie world is rocked when the greedy newspaper giants increase distribution prices during the slow post-war summer of 1899. The gang, including newsgirls Anna and Kate, must organize the child workers of New York City in order to get the rights and respect they deserve. Strike-compliant, Jack/Sarah, David/OC

Street Rule of Thumb: never fall for a prostitute. Jack Kelly should know that better than anyone. But Jack's not one to follow the rules. Rated M for language, sexual and violent content. Jack&OC.

Racetrack had one role and one role only. Act as Snyder aka The Spider of New York's thief. With Snyder arrested, Race had one last job. The second he was finished with this heist, Racetrack would no longer exist. Detective Sean 'Spot' Conlon knew he was obsessed with his archrival. Sure he might not know anything about the thief but he was determined to end their game.

Morris didn't mean for this to happen. Prompts: "I can't take it anymore..." "Why can't you just look me in the eyes for one goddamn second!" (For Neko Kaiyo on A03)

Metal clashed on metal, sparks flying as the two figures launched themselves at each other carefully, shirts calmly billowing out from skin, both tan and pale. Smirks danced on the boys' faces as they both looked for an opening in their opponents' defences. (This also has Ike in it but I can't tag him for some reason so rip.)

Snipeshooter pulls a prank on Mush that doesn't go as planned... NOT MY STORY! I have been given custody of these stories by their author, who has also given me permission to repost them here.

The story of Spot Colin and Jack Kelly, their meeting and the bond that grew between them that slowly become more than either one had ever expected or understood. This story starts years before the movie and will end after the movie completed. Jack/Spot

When the dragons struck New York, it was just after ten p.m. on the twenty-ninth of June, 1900. Now, in the ruins of the city, it's up to Jack and his newsboys to survive. Crossover with "Reign of Fire." Picks up directly where "The Dusk Descending" left off.

Lots of time at home has driven me to try to combine three stories into one with a few tweaks and changes. If you've read ILY, BYF, or TSH feel free to skip :-) Thank you!

Spot Conlon is the Newsie King of Brooklyn. Rois is an Irish girl, fighting her way through life as an immigrant with a little brother and no parents in the slums of Brooklyn- she's trying to keep her brother safe, she's trying to make a life for them, but it's a little hard to do with bloody knuckles and not a penny in her pocket. Shall we see where their story takes them?

Spot is not happy about Jack turning Scab. N.B: This is not my story. The author gave me custody of them before she deleted her account, and I am reposting them so that people can continue to enjoy them!

Brooklyn is different from Manhattan. Always has been. It's a rougher neighborhood, and kids grow up tougher. Follow the story of Spot Conlon and his inner circle in the years leading up to and following the strike. Multi-chapter. In progress.

A canon era Blush songfic with lots of pining. Multi-chapter.

After a rowdy Brooklyn party, Spot Conlon goes over the night of muddled memories to recall an unexpected connection. Rated for cursing. maybe a one shot maybe more.
