Davey Headcanons!!!
Canon Era
• He gets his hat stolen by the other newsies all the time. He’s given up being mad about it and just waits for it to turn up on the lodging house table three days later.
• He’s just an easy target for thieves in general, so whenever he goes selling, another newsie (usually Jack) insists on going with him to glare at anyone thinking of stealing their hard earned money.
• He brought leftovers from the holidays to the lodge, and nearly cried when he saw just how hungry his friends really were. He makes a point to bring food regularly after that.
• Sarah and Les prank him all the time, so when the newsies try the same thing, their jaws hit the floor as he effortlessly hops over the tripwire running along the bottom of the door without looking up from his book
• The newsies all think he’s crazy for reading for fun. They only read out of necessity. Why would someone willingly subject themselves to that?
• He and Kathrine are the only two people in Manhattan who aren’t scared of Spot.
Modern AU
• He works at a little cafe/bookstore, and he absolutely loves every second of it. He’s surrounded by the smell of coffee, pastries and books all day, and for him there’s nothing better in the world.
• He may look like a stick, but this boy is STRONG. He lifts huge boxes of books like it’s nothing.
• Wears glasses for reading, but is wary of doing so around other people for fear they might make fun of him.
• This ones kinda random, but this man destroys at arcade games. Skeeball? 10,000s nearly every time. Crossy Road? All the way across 12 lanes of traffic. He‘s kind of scary when he gets into the groove of things.
Welp! That’s that! Hope you guys enjoy, and keep sending me requests! :)
