Why this must be read:
Through a series of card games, the history of Spot's and Racetrack's friendship and rivalry is revealed. This fic gives a fascinatingly probable backstory for two of the movie's most charismatic newsies.
“You ain’t welcome here no more,” Spot announced.
Race looked up at him sharply. That was new. He’d never been banished before. In truth, he would’ve rather been soaked. He made a lot of money in Brooklyn, not to mention he sold there a fair amount of the time. Of course, Spot knew all that and probably figured it would hurt more than a few punches.
“You made me do that,” Spot said a moment later, dropping his voice so only Racetrack could hear. It wasn’t an apology, it was a simple statement of fact. Race had never seen Spot regret anything.
“I know,” Race conceded. He had backed Spot into a corner, insulted him repeatedly and had done it in front of his boys. He deserved what he got, but it was worth it. He would have smiled if didn’t hurt so much.
