Golly pulled on the reins to stop his horse as he got outside the lodging house. He swung his body out of the saddle and proceeded to teather Vanora to the street lamp in front of the building. He looked up and sighed at the worn sign above the door, knowing that he was not the most welcome face around there but none the less he wanted to try and find out more about the Raconteurs Sweets had tipped him off about earlier.
Taking a deep breath he started up the steps "Here goes nothin'"

Jack was just coming out of the building when he nearly ran into Golly.
"Oi...copper...got a problem?" He crossed his arms, looking at Golly evenly. Golly wasn't a bad cop...if he was here, it was probably for a good reason.

Golly took a step back when Jack almost ran into him. He quickly recovered from being startled and resisted the urge to make a snippy remark about Jack's choice of slang (copper) - he wasn't here to start problems.
"No not a problem - jus' some questions" He responded, he recognized Jack as the leader knowing who he was from all the past news of the strike. "Kelly right?" He asked now becoming official with his speech"Officer McLean. One of yer kids, Sweets, gave me a tip..."

Jack raised an eyebrow, his arms slipping to his side. "Yeah...Jack Kelly." He paused. "...Sweets? What...she okay? What tip?" He was still in the dark about what had been going on with her.

"Yeah shes fine..i think. Was actin' real nervous though." Golly frowned a bit, he liked Sweets and was hoping she didn't get herself in over her head. He pushed up the brim of his hat so he could see Jack's face better. "She came an' found me - real concerned over a group of theives. Says their recruting newsies an' other kids - know what shes talking about?"

Jack nodded. "Yeah. Raconteurs," he said darkly. He paused. "...do you...want to talk about this in private? My room maybe?" He didn't want the others seeing him talking to the cop...but he also didn't want to raise any alarms with his kids.

Golly stared for a minute, surprised that Jack was so willing to talk to him then he nodded. "Yeah probably be a better idea. You lead the way, Kelly." He took off his hat since they were going indoors and glanced back at Vanora to make sure she was secured properly then nodded back at Jack.

<<new day>>
One of Ariannette's acrobats slipped over to the door of the Hattan lodging house, whistling a new song they were learning. He tacked up a small note on the door, and headed for the other burroughs. Aria had definitely come up with a good idea, but why she enjoyed helping the newsies, he'd never know.
Attention Newsies!
Raconteurs getting you down?
Come to my Masquerade Ball at Caprice Hall on Halloween!
It's free, with food, dancing, music!
Forget your woes for one night!
Don't have money for a costume!
Come raid my costume department...just ask for me or Wallace, my stage manager.
Hope you come!!
--Ariannette LeFleur.

<<New Day>>
Puck looked around suspiciously as he approached the Lodging House. Many people walked the streets as Puck weaved his way in and out of them. "How do they expect a person to get inside..." he scowled miserably. These streets were new to the Trickster.

Looking around as he reached the front steps, he took a deep breath and walked inside.

Tumbler was upset. It was early, but by the time he had woken up the other boys were already on their way out of Lodging House. He's wasn't very excited to be walking alone (being one of the littlest lodgers) but he knew he had to go and sell his newspapers.
Maybe I'll find Skittery and sell with him, he thought happily as he walked out the door of the Lodging House.
Tumbler yelped when he saw the tall boy in front of him.

Jack was coming out the door when he heard the girl talk, raising an eyebrow. "Ace....well Ace, you're gonna have to find a new nickname, kiddo. Ace is the leader of Bronx....not a girl in 'hattan."
He pulled his cowboy hat up on his head. He wasn't having the best day.
