Wrangler - Brooklyn Newsies Oc

Wrangler is a 17 year old born-and-raised Texan sent to New York by his parents in hopes of a better life for their son. Unfortunately, things never go as planned and he showed up with no money and nowhere to go. He was taken in by the Newsies after he collapsed on the bridge from fatigue and starvation.

Little things about him!

Heavy southern accent

Gay

Always has his lucky rabbit foot on him

Slight limp from falling off his horse when he was younger

I ain't been to the Bowery yet, but Stars told me it was pretty good stuff... I might go!

[wranglr-jeans]

Hows you doin Wrangler?- Stars (✨📰)

Oh jeez hey Stars! I'm doin' fine, finally back up on my feet again! How 'bout yourself?

[stars-the-newsie]

Im glad you’re doin better!! I’m doing good!! I got some good sleep a couple of nights ago so I’m still happy ‘bout that! Plus I finished the book!! (I’m rereading it though!)

Seems as soon as you get up Liz went down. After all, it ain’t a normal day without someone bein hurt!

[wranglr-jeans]

Must've been a good book then! Also it's great to hear 'bout the sleep, I been sleepin' pretty good myself.

Wrangler!!! Mouth said he would lend me a book!!! Hes gonna let me borrow his copy of The Odyssey! (Its a translation cause I dont knows Greek which it apparently was written in firsts, but I bet its still gonna be really good!!!) -Stars (✨📰)

That's awesome Stars!! Glad he's givin' you a book. Sometimes I forget that nothing everythin' is written out in English. Hope it's a good read for you!

Howdy, how's sellin' goin' for y'all over in Woodside? - @wranglr-jeans

Pretty swell! I think the folks there just feel bad for us.

[wranglr-jeans]

Pretty sure folks everywhere just feel bad for us. I mean, wouldn't you feel bad for poor kids on the street if you weren't one yourself?

[wranglr-jeans]

How old was you when ya got sent ta New York? - @lizzy-hartman

17, I've only been here 'bout a month. Folks sent me away.

[lizzy-hartman]

And you went straight ta Brooklyn? Bold

[wranglr-jeans]

Well I had no clue 'bout any of this newsie stuff, I just walked till I passed out and ended up here.

[skids-and-stitches]

Hey you two, how've y'all been holdin' up? I'm stuck in the lodgin' house till my leg is better so I thought I'd start talkin' to some folks. - @wranglr-jeans

We've been holdin' up well! Got some nice bread earlier from one 'a the markets- what happened to your leg eh?

[wranglr-jeans]

Lucky you were able to get bread, that's cool. And I banged it up pretty good after I feel the other day, been limpin' bad.

Secrets that were never meant to be spoken.

You down to broker a deal? - @lizzy-hartman

Depends on what kinda deal we're talkin'.

[lizzy-hartman]

You willin’ ta donate some cash to the good kids of Manhattan?

[wranglr-jeans]

I ain't even got enough cash to take care of myself, what makes you think I'll give it up to y'all? Unless you give me a reason I ain't helpin'.

[lizzy-hartman]

I’ll pay ya back double

[wranglr-jeans]

How do I know I can trust your word?

[lizzy-hartman]

Cos Spotty trusts me

[wranglr-jeans]

Y'know, I really doubt that. How 'bout this, we meet up after a week of sellin', I'll give you some of my cut but I ain't givin' everything. And I need to know what you usin' the cash for.

[lizzy-hartman]

The young’uns have gotta eat and as small as they are they ain’t very good at sellin’

[wranglr-jeans]

Good cause. I'll contribute to it then, 'specially if the kids are goin' hungry.

[lizzy-hartman]

Only for a couple days, folks ain’t been buyin’ as many papes round here of recent, and these kids are my responsibility, they just is

[wranglr-jeans]

I get it. I get lots of people 'round where I sell so once I'm up and runnin' again I'll put some aside for the 'Hattan kids, just let me know when you need it.

Howdy Stars! I finally got my leg checked out and took a day off sellin', even though I can't really afford to. Hope you're havin' a good day - wrangler

HI WRANGLER!!! I’m glad ya got that leg looked at (even if youse can’t sell for the day). If ya ever need me to cover for ya just let me know! I knows how much it sucks to miss a day of sellin.

My day is goin decent! At least it was- then this jerk decided to step on my toe and it hurts like the devil. It was some fancy businessman thats I’m probably never gonna sees again, but hes now my number one enemy. (I’ll be fine. Probably.)

[wranglr-jeans]

Good to know! It really does suck, seein' everyone else out there workin' hard and I'm layin' in bed by my lonesome. Almost feels unfair to everyone else.

Well, if he ever decides to pay a visit to Brooklyn I'll sock 'im for you! Any enemy of yours is an enemy of mine.
