Dere seems ta be a lotta newsies comin' up recently. Met one of yours da oddah day... Sweets? Real nice goil. Gave me a hand... nevah did pay Stan back..." she thought out loud, but shook her head, and made a mental note to do that. "Got oddah kids come in recently?" she asked them.

Speaking of new kids, or rather...not new...Red came in, brushing some hair off of his forehead. He let out a happy little sigh when he discovered it was much cooler inside than out. With his sleeves rolled up to his elbows and shirt partially unbuttoned, it looked like he had just gotten off work.

"Sure, loads." Jack told Prince, counting the new kids off on his fingers. "There's Sweet's o' course, and Jewel and Two-Bit... I think the newest one's Hawkeye. All great kids, o' course. Just real new still, you know what I mean?"
But before Prince could answer Jack spotted Red and waved him over. "Red! How ya doin'? I haven't seen you 'round here in a while."
((Jack knows everybody, so I thought he'd remember an ex-newsie like Red.))

"How ya doin, Jacky?" Red laughed as he came over and spit in his hand, holding it out. "I've been out travelin. Just got back." He turned to Prince, and nodded, holding his hand out for her too.

Prince spit in her hand and shook Red's smiling. She'd seen him since, but it was always nice to see friends. Prince had been around long enough to know Red, but not a leader for that long, only recently.

Race sat back and listened to the conversation, then nodded his head in greeting to Red. "Heya Red, shore, pull up a chair."

Flipping one around, he sat in it backwards, hands braced on the back, "So, lose any more money, Racey?" He teased lightly, having truly missed these guys.

His face turning grim he sent Red a quick glare. "Not enough ta get upset about," he lied, taking another gulp of water. "Just a small set back, nothin' I can't win back," he added confidently, making himself feel better.

"Soah." He just shrugged, looking around at the group, "Is anyone else hungry?" He asked innocently.

Fancy wandered into Tibby's she'd been looking for Cheater or Race to tell her where Cheater was. She spotted Race across Tibby's and made her way over. "Heya guys... Race have ya seen Cheater?" she asked urgently, completly forgeting about the existence of the others for a moment or two....

Fancy looked at him and raised an eyebrow "Cheats? at the tracks?" she started laughing and sunk down into the seat next to Red "Cheater? at... the TRACKS?!" she exclaimed, nearly falling over from laughing....
