#jackcrutchie

(note: this is based off of both Livesies and 92sies, if u don't like my hc then u don't have to agree and scroll past :3 also there are a few hc concerning mental health so two for those whom it may concern)

idk how to do this so we're going for a list :3

Trans man Jack Kelly

Arospec cuz broski got no use for moonlight or sappy poetry

Bisexual: exhibit a - Katherine Plumber, exhibit b - Davey Jacobs

in a qpr w crutchie (they both just don't know it)

gets really guilty for liking both Katherine and Davey cuz he doesn't understand romance but really really wants to kiss both of them in a like a sensual way (smth like that) which confuses him and he feels bad because it feels like he's using them for their bodies when rationally he knows it's wayyy deeper than just that

his past relationships was more like fwb but he still called it romantic cuz broski did not know why he would get hella uncomfortable when his partner would say things like ily in a /romantic way

when the uncomfortableness got too much he would always be the one to break it off

and then avoid them until the end of time

when he first got to the lodging house, he often brooded at the rooftop and sketched on the backs of the papes he couldn't sell

he also woke up with nightmares a lot of the times so he just didn't sleep to avoid them

then race needed help w something in the lodging house and ask Jack for help cuz he was the closest one around

and that's when he started to become more and more of a leader w/ Race's help

has a fascination with animals, specifically birds, just absolutely adores them, there was a small sparrows nest on the rooftop few years before the strike started and the rest of the newsies wouldn't hear the end of it from jack

When he and Crutchie got into their qpr (ig they don't rlly call it that), they both thought their mutual feelings were romantic and kissed before they both went "nah that doesn't feel right" and got really confused but they eventually figured it out

surprisingly good cook

he hangs out w the bowery beauties back stage and gossip (w buttons tagging along too) during his Medda Mandated Breaks when he goes to paint the backdrops

Jack's dad used to work with Medda so Jack's known Medda since he was just a wee little lad

but when Jack's dad died it was Medda that stepped up to help Jack

He first heard about Santa Fe after a strange man that came to Meddas theater was talking about the place

and also articles in the pape

After the cops beat the newsies up and took Crutchie away during the strike, Jack had REALLY BAD TIME on that rooftop, but he scared himself with his thoughts and what he did to himself, to actually go out to seek help from Medda

Anxiety

he likes to run away from things that make him anxious

he also isn't that great of a dancer

(I'd like to think Davey and Katherine are amazing dancers and then u have Jack)

he loves music

he frequently sings songs even subconsciously like mumbling the lyrics as he wanders

he also likes wandering

and climbing random buildings

he just explores random places in Manhattan

Uhhhh that's it from me sorry if it sucked

javey - yes, they're around late 20s, really wholesome and sweet, spot officiates and then they adopt and are such girl dads

sprace - yes, immediately out of high school / during early college since race doesn't want his dads name on his phd so he takes conlon and spot doesn't mind sticking with his own since it was his moms name

crutchbert - yes, they have like 2 kids and are such a middle-age married couple

spromeo - no, with the asterisk of that they could, but they both have trauma from past relationships of being stuck/"tied down" so just dating is good enough for them since they know their partner loves them

newsbians - yes, they're freshly 23 and out of college, they do a traditional wedding, the full nine yards and they both look like princesses

ralbert - no, like spromeo, they know their partner loves them and that's enough. they do elope when they're older (like mid 30s) but for now it's enough

blush - no but then one day when they're like 25 mush sits up suddenly and is like "i just realized, we're not married even tho we've been dating for like 12 years, we should do that" and blink says "oh yeah i forgot about that. we should. we're kinda overdue anyway" and then they do! and they're really sweet

jackcrutchie - yes, like newsbians they go the traditional route and are superrr cute and fluffy

redfinch - yes but they elope and don't tell anyone until like 2 years after just to see if anyone noticed (no one except for katherine did)
