So, may or may not be once again stuck in the Pit-'O-Papes. A production of Newsies that's ending on the 8th is going on at the Grand Theater in NJ and I've gone to see it twice since it's just that good a production. I went in costume because I /had/ to, honestly. I don't get why anyone would expect anything other than that from me. Last night's performance I went in a hastily scrapped-together Crutchie costume, using a plain cane from the 1900's I just so happened to have used up a Christmas present slot for back in Ren Faire season instead of a crutch. Props are hard and expensive and bulky, and I did not have the time for making a crutch. The cast liked my costume, and the guy who played Crutchie was amazing at the role (and in general just a nice dude).
ANYWAY! I've several ideas. First is that I need to make a character thing in my compilation book for Dandy Boy, my OC/self-insert. Second is Newsies AU for Davieverse. Yes, an AU of an AU. Just having trouble figuring out who plays whom. Davie could be either Crutchie or Davey, honestly. He already gets a limp when he overexerts himself, so turning it up to all the time for this AU is very plausible. Then again, his name is /literally/ Davie, and he's very much a brainy guy. Gah, dilemmas. Definitely drawing a blank on who Jack is, though.
