"I never forgot you." 

"Neither did I."

Friend. 

Many people spend their entire lives searching for that. 

A friend. 

Someone to share their life to, to tell every secret, every lie, every blessing, every curse. 

To have a friend, is one of the greatest gifts of the world. 

One that once upon a time, Racetrack Higgins had that. 

Once upon a time, Anastasia Redwood had that too. 

Until, one day changed it all. 

The word, once so understood, so familiar became foreign, and forgotten until...

The Newsboy Strike of 1899...

Welcome, to LOQ, take two. Filled to the brim with angst, adventure, and love.

Santa Fe by -santafe-

Credit to the amazing -Sitarday- for the awesome cover. 🎶When I dream on my own, I'm alone but I ain't lonely. For a dreamer, night's the only time of day.🎶 The year was 1899. Jack Kelly found an orphaned teenage girl named Abby Taylor on the street after selling newspapers. He ends up taking her to the newsboys' lodging house and teaches her to become a newsie. What will happen when the two start to fall in love with each other as a strike begins? (This is based of off the 1992 Newsies film.)

The Runaway Girlsie by TheQuietHufflepuff

Adie Gray, formerly Adelaide Walsh, enlists the help of a dear friend to run away from her abusive father. While on the streets, trying to survive, she meets the newsies. Jack Kelly, realizing her talent, enlists her to work with him. Has the cowboy met his princess? Will her father catch up to her? Will they raise a torch and carry their banner? *I don't own Newsies. I only own Adie. All credit goes to Alan Menken and the creators of this awesome show. Sidenote: The version of Jack I imagine is that of Jeremy Jordan's. You're free to imagine others who have played the role of Jack Kelly.

In Between 'Hattan and Brooklyn || A Sprace Story by Broadway_Crackers

Racetrack Higgins was a normal Manhattan Newsie- more or less. He was Gay, but so were all of his brothers. He was Jack's Second in Command and had a rough past. He was stubborn, has anxiety, and is a good bit chaotic. Spot Conlon was not a normal Newsie. He was the King of Brooklyn, the Borough feared by most. Except for Race. (And a few others.) Said Italian blonde boy was actually a half Brooklyn, half Manhattan Newsie, as he sold in Brooklyn. Sure, Spot scared him sometimes, but not a lot. They were very different. Spot had brown hair, Race had dirty blonde. Race had been to the Refuge, Spot hadn't. Spot had brown eyes, Race had bright blue eyes. Race was strong, but easily outnumbered, Spot was strong, but wasn't easily outnumbered. One think they both agreed was that they cared for their boys more than anything and would do anything to keep them safe. Oh, that and that the other was cute. Or hot, depending on if you were Spot or Race. ~~ Excerpt from the Story ~~ "Hey, Race." Ace starts, picking up his cards every time Race passes one to him. Race hums, passing a card to Sling, then himself, and then Ace. "Do you have a crush on Spot?" Ace asks, still staring at his cards. Sling hides his smile with his cards in front of his face, stifling a laugh. "No." Race answers, his face reddening slightly as he passes out another card to each boy. Ace looks up at him. "BS." He responds, smirking. Race scowls at him, pulling his hat off of his head and smacking Ace with it, all while his face turns bright red. Ace and Sling laugh. ~~ ~~ (I do not own Newsies.)
