For as long as you'd known him, Spot was always the tough one. But how much water does it take for the dam to break?
The newsies were rough to withstand a hard world, but a quiet love warms even the coldest of hearths. See how its light persists in the deepest winter night, sustaining Spot until the morning finally breaks.

Wrote this at the end of high school. Haven't thought about it in years, but I remembered this draft after a nostalgic re-watch of Newsies (1992). I've long since left this site ... but honestly felt like a crime to let it rot in google docs. Enjoy.

Destructive - Newsies | Sprace
Winter. A time of year the newsboys of New York City wish they skip over. It got cold- real cold. Newsies all over would start showing signs of sickness within the first weeks of winter. Not as many people are out on the streets, which means not as many people are there to buy papes. Money gets scarce and it's not like any of them can afford a winter coat. Wintertime is chaotic enough as it is, but when you're a newsboy trying to juggle a forbidden relationship, the death of many friends, and the return of a psychotic family member? Yeah, things can get a little... destructive. Story length: 27,730 ------------------------------ THERE IS A BREAKDOWN OF THE MOVIE VS MUSICAL AT THE VERY END WHERE I JUST DISSECT THE MOVIE AND WHATNOT. IT DOESN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE TO ME WHETHER OR NOT YOU READ IT, I JUST WANTED TO PUT IT OUT THERE. DISCLAIMERS: - These characters are not mine, they all belong to Disney (excluding a couple little side characters here and there) - The word 'queer' is used frequently towards the end. While I am fully aware that it is not always used as a slur, I just couldn't bring myself to have one of the boys say the 'f' word. (You know the one) - This is going to be a mix of the 1992 Newsies and the Broadway Newsies, so I apologize in advance if you get a little confused. I just can't decide which is better, but for some characters I can only see them as the 1992 version or the broadway version. - Main difference: The relationship is going to be Jack and Katherine, meaning that neither Sarah nor Denton exist. Sorry about that, but since they aren't the main focus of this story anyways, hopefully you won't change your mind about reading this purely on that. - I made the cover using pictures off of the internet so credit to Google ImagesComplete

Nickels (Spot Conlon x reader) {Completed}
Nickels. The word could mean a lot. It could mean the metal, that was almost impossible to break. It could mean the coin that was worth a pretty penny. It also could mean the coin, that if you weren't careful with, could slip through your fingers and down the gutter. It could also mean one of the most feared newsies in all of New York. But, what no one knew is that Nickels was a girl. No one, except Spot Conlon. DISCLAIMER: I don't own newsies!!! Also, sorry if I don't get their accents wrong! 😅 Also, the plot will be different from the movie/play Also, there is some swearing and implied sex at one point, so just a warningComplete![You Never Walk Alone [1st Draft Ver.]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/361930908-256-k514306.jpg)

Can a shattered heart heal? (Adar x Reader x Elrond)
"Keep waiting for him then, let your heart cry and long for him, it will drive you mad, you will suffer silently for all of eternity hoping he'll come, you will wait and wait and wait and he will never arrive." "Elrond will come." You repeat, placing your hands on your face. "He isn't coming, how long will you wait? How long will you torture yourself waiting for his face?" He says bitterly. ...There are no more words, only silence... (Please do not use or publish my story without my consent!)Complete
In Between 'Hattan and Brooklyn || A Sprace Story
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.)

You wash up on a strange island beach the morning after a shipwreck. You go to search for water but find something else entirely. Possibly oneshot, I may continue if y'all want. Newsies/Peter Pan crossover. I think it's better than it sounds, but just to be sure please R&R. Thanks.Complete
