A bronx tale by theaterkidpt1

Summary
Jack needs new boots. This is what he thinks as a puddle of water seeps out of them with each step into the Bronx lodging house. He bought these ones two years ago and now they just barely fit his feet. He must have had one last growth spurt in the past years since he saved up to buy them.
Considering how rough this past winter was, they had definitely withered more. The steel toe cap lifted up from the sole every time he took a step.
or
Jack Kelly devotes so much time taking care of the other newsies, he forgets to take care of himself; his stubbornness leads him to an alley were some angry Bronx newsies jump him.

His Brooklyn Newsie by missmysterious56

Summary
Jack goes to visit his Brooklyn counterpart before the strike really takes off. This leans more towards 1992 newsies which is why I only tagged that one.
Please ignore the terrible title it's the only thing I could think of. Also, prompt me for them if you feel like it.

Summary
Instead of just having Jack sleep on the printing press the Delancey's and Snyder do much worse. At the same time the newsies are falling apart without their leader even with David's attempts to cover till Jack gets back. Katherine knows Jack needs help but will the newsies still trust her after they learn the truth.
OR
I always found it weird that the only thing the Delancey's did to Jack when they had the chance to seriously harm him, was have him sleep on a printing press, so I changed that. There is also a lot of hurt for Jack but a lot of love from his newsies, Katherine and Medda for him after.
(PLEASE READ THE NOTES BEFORE THE FIRST CHAPTER)

Ain't It a Fine Life by justagrumpynerd
Fandom: Newsies (1992), Newsies - All Media Types
16 Dec 2022
Summary
A look into the lives of a pack of street rats just trying to make it during the turn of the century, and maybe being able to find some happiness along the way.
A collection of newsies fics I've written over time, because this is my comfort media and I love these boys very much. All of them take place in the same timeline, but any of them can be read on their own.
Disclaimer: they are written from a movie-verse perspective since that's what I grew up watching; that's not meant to gatekeep/deter anyone, just if there are any inconsistencies with the Broadway musical that's probably why.
Will update as time permits. Enjoy <3

Summary
Spot smiles, suddenly, and it isn’t bloodthirsty or hard. “Come back to the docks tomorrow and I’ll teach you.”
“Teach me what?”
“Teach you to swim.” Spot rolls his eyes, still grinning, and starts to walk back into Brooklyn, yelling back over his shoulder, “How else am I supposed to keep ya from drownin’ in my territory?”

Summary
Spot has places to be and Jack is always hogging the bathroom. For as long as Spot's known Jack Kelly he's always taken forever in the restroom and Spot was fine with it until it interrupted his schedule. Tired of Jack's bullshit, Spot barges in when Jack is holed away and gets way more than he ever bargained for. His plans are completely forgotten but this is more important than catching the train could ever be.

There were very few newsies who would wander over to Brooklyn without Spot Conlon’s say-so, and you’d probably be surprised to learn that Crutchie was one of them.

A pirate's life for me by ChaosFairytale
Fandom: Newsies (1992), Newsies - All Media Types, Newsies!: the Musical - Fierstein/Menken
07 Nov 2025
Summary
A series set in a fantasy version of newsies, still circa 1899, in which they are all pirates and instead of in boroughs are now crews on the pirate ships.
Jack and the Manhattan Newsies of the 1992 movie are on his ship the 'Santa Fe', which will be the focus of the side stories, showing background and relationships the characters had over the years, as the oldest members of the crew have been sailing together for about ten years when "Toss a coin to your pirate" starts.Spot Conlon doesn't only have one ship but has spent the last years building an empire, both angry at the government and at other, curel pirates. The ship he's mainly on is 'The Brooklyn' and, to be honest, most of the series probably won't feature him and his pirate crew, but he's, with Racetrack, the focus of the main part in the series.

Summary
A historically based story inspired by the Newsie universe (1992) and involving many of our favorite Newsie characters. Written as a menagerie of combined scenes with Glitter_ink's fabulous OCs and mine. I can't get enough of them all. Hope you enjoy. Thank you soooo much glitter-ink.....this wouldn't be as fun or fabulous without your awesome OC's. A multi-chapter piece with multiple perspectives. A companion piece to "On The Low". Should be read in conjunction. I hope you enjoy!!!
