Headcannon that crutchie has trouble sleeping at night
-at first it started off as losing a few hours here and there
-it soon became only a few hours a night
-he doesn't know why he's losing all this sleep
-he always feels fully rested but he never looks it
-he's not sick or anything
-poor boy just doesn't sleep
-crutchie accidentally woke jack up early one morning
-"crutch,,,, what time did you wake up?" "Its a bit bold of you to assume I've even slept."
-jack question him but he just ??? doesn't sleep that often
-if one of the other newsies gets a nightmare you know he's right there comforting them
-if he's tired he'll fall asleep anywhere anytime
