Summary
It wasn’t the screams that woke David. Not the thrashing, the hissing, or even the panicked intruders making their retreat.
It was the pain.

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
"Hold on, you think I'd turn?" Charles demands.
"Every ghost has a unique trigger, and I can't say I wasn't a little concerned on a few occasions in Port Townsend. Then, with that same look in your eyes just now…"
Edwin isn't wrong; it's not like Charles hadn't been thinking the same thing. But he shakes his head and attempts a comforting grin--Edwin's got too much on his plate to waste time worrying about the one person who's supposed to look out for him. "Don't worry, mate, I'm aces. So how do we find this demonic arsehole?"
-OR-
All ghosts are capable of turning vengeful. When their quarry is revealed to be a demon from Edwin's past, Charles and Edwin learn something important about their own personal triggers.

Summary
Charles’ voice is casual when he asks, “What was all that about, mate? When you froze her up and saved my neck?”
Edwin freezes up himself, eyes going enormous, looking more like the hunted than the hunter. But he doesn’t run, like in the early years, and he doesn’t pretend not to hear, like when he just started trusting Charles not to push. It’s progress. “I, ah… Well, I enthralled her, if you must know. Only a minor one, without the exchange of blood, but enough to follow the commands I gave for the rest of her life.”Or: Charles finds out about the vampiric ability his best mate’s been hiding.
