Beds

[Prince]

Prince nodded as she sat on the bed beside Dazzle's which was one of the boy's. "What got cha landed in Queens New Yawk?" she asked as she laid down putting her head where the feet usually go, and propped herself up on an elbow.

[dazzle]

"Why?" Dazzle asked suspiciously.

[Prince]

Prince shrugged. "Wull... I just find it kinda weird... a goil from Virginia in New Yawk... ain't somethin' I see ev'ry day..." she said. "But youse dun gotta tell me I mean... all newsies got deir secrets," she said as she took off her hat and let her hair fall on to da bed. "Like me for example... I'm a goil," she said with a smile.

[dazzle]

Dazzle looked at Prince amazed. She hadn't even guess and she prided herself on noticing details. "Umm...well...that’s definitely something that I don't see everyday," she stuttered.

[Prince]

Prince laughed. "It's alright... ya ain't da foist one not ta notice..." Prince said with a smile. "Happens more often den ya think, which is what I'm goin' fah. But... dun tell no one... no one dat ain't a newsie I mean. Most of da newsies know already anyway, so youse dun gotta worry 'bout dem, jus' dun go tellin' anyone who ain't a newsie... or da Delancey's," though they hardley counted as newsies. Though Dazzle wouldn't know who they were, but this fact didn't occur to Prince.

[dazzle]

Dazzle laughed a little uneasy. "Well, at least I'm not da only one. Umm, who are da Delancey's?" She thought she heard a sneer in Princes voice as she said that name.

[Prince]

Prince rolled her eyes and sat up. "Da Delancey's are a couple of bruddahs from 'hattan," she said with a glare, making it painfully obvious she didn't like them. As she spoke she expertly twisted her hair around her head, and hid it under her hat. "Othah people ta watch out for are Snyder, an' Spot Colon..." she said whith a laugh as she said the last name. "Nah, ya dun gotta watch out for 'im... jus dun disrespect 'im," she said still laughing, but her hair perfectly hidden again. But her voice higher, since there was no reason to keep up appearences anymore.

[dazzle]

Dazzle just lifted an eyebrow to the comment about the Delancey's and made a mental note of what Prince said about Snyder. She already knew about Snyder cause a kid doesn't come here with out knowing a few things. "Whose Spot Colon?"

[Prince]

"Whose Spot Colon?" she asked back, but smiled. "He's da leadah of da Brooklyn Newsies... and I'd bet he's even shortah den youse," she said smiling. I dunno how old he is, but he's a little short. He spends a lotta time 'round Red... an oldah guy who used ta be leadah of Brooklyn, but ain't no mores. But, I'll warn ya. Spot' tougher den ya think, so dun push 'im too far," Prince said smiling.

[dazzle]

"Got it. Don't wanna make an enemy on my foist day here would I," Dazzle laughed. "Anyone else I should be wry of?"

[Prince]

Prince thought for a second. "Hmmm... not dat I'se can think of... no one else'll get ya in trouble, an I dun think anyone'll hoit ya unless ya pravoke 'em... which ain't a smart thin' ta do," she said. "But if ya needs anythin'... ya lemme know... I'm usually 'round," she said with a touch to the brim of her hat as a type of salute and she stood up to return to the couch and her story.

[samflintley]

Sam, who had been trying to ignore the voices, decided that she would rather read than sleep. She sat up, noticing Dazzle.
"Heya, I'm Sam. Who're you?"

[dazzle]

Dazzle looked at the girl across the room. She had noticed her when she came in but the girl had been asleep. "Dazzle," she replied.

[samflintley]

Sam nodded. "Nice to meet ya."
She reached into her bag and pulled out a ragged, doggeared, old book and flipped it open, reading.

[dazzle]

Dazzle studied her for a minute before closing her eyes. She tried to sleep but after all that had happened today she was too anxious to go to sleep, so she looked around the room.
