Sweets wandered slowly toward the lodging house, hands in pockets and kicking a small stone as she went. It had been a long day of selling, and she didn't make out quite as well as she usually did. Glancing up she saw Bumlets and Crutchy on the steps and attempted a grin. "Heya fellas."

Bumlets let out a sigh, the only girl in all of Manhattan that didn't sound like she was chirping at him. "Hey,Sweets--" he gave her a half, quiet smile and a salute with his broom handle. He looked from one to the other and sighed at the female like noise in the lodging house. He was so close to sleeping on the roof it was not even amusing anymore.

"Yeah they are kind crazy at times but they make race mad which is sometime funny" Crutchy said chuckling at his own joke. "You never know Bumblets one of them could like you". "Like Hyper" Crutchy said kinda whispering but so he can hear it.

Sweets smiled at Bumlets, she always like having him around, he always seemed to keep things calm. Glancing over at Crutchy she raised an eyebrow, not sure what she missed but gathering enough from the comment to send Bumlets a sympathetic, but slightly amused, glance.

"Kill me," he murmured dropping his face into his hands. Shaking his head, really, Bumlets didn't like the girls in the burough. Only Sweets and the thought of someone liking him just made him want to sleep on the roof with the door locked.

" Kill me"
Was all Crutchy heard Bumlets say. " Why would you want to kill yourself Bumlets? She doesn't even really like you, all she has is a crush on you, and thats it."

Sweets couldn't suppress a snort, but she quickly attempted to turn it into a cough. She gave Bumlets a sideways glance, amusement shining in her eyes. She was, however, still human, and as such she was obliged to help. "So what was it you were goin' ta tell me before Bumlets?" She paused, nodding slightly. "... about, the uh, thing that happened?" She smiled slightly.

He lifted his eyes to Sweets and gave her an appreciative small smile, nodding as he came up with something to say. "Yeah, about Mush and Race-- Race is still saying he's not going to date ever, and Mush is moon eyed over that little souther girl from the Bronx--" He knew everything about everyone of his friends for a good reason. He was quiet, he listened and melded into the background. He loomed in the background a lot--

"Ahhhh good afternoon one and all!!" Blink bound up, grinning, tipping his hat off to do a wide bow. "Oh if it isn't all my favorite people, all lined up on the steps." He chuckled, going to sling an arm around Bumlets.

Bumlets lifted a brow and managed a smile, rolling his eyes. Nudging his good friend with his broom handle before tipping up his hat. "Your in a good mood, Blink.." He was curious about it, though Blink was always in a good mood. "Whats'er name?"

Sweets nodded at Bumlets' little bit of information before hearing Blink approaching. Her grin immediately grew as he joined them on the steps, his happiness always seeming to be contagious. "Heya Kid," she greeted, letting out a small chuckle at Bumlet's question.

Manhattan jumped down from the roof , to the fire escape, then sung from there to the crates and dropped to the steps. Looking back up she said "Wasn't sure i was goin ta make the first jump, swingin's the easy part." she said more to herself and grinned at the Newsies on the steps not really taking in who was all there, as she dusted her hands off on her pant legs making a cloud of dirt swirl around them. "Sorry" she grinned sheepishly. Finally actually taking in the faces. "Sweets!! Bumlets!" she said open pleasure at seeing them written on her face. "Guys!" she acknowledged the others knowing their names but not actually been face to face with them before. Realizing she had interrupted a conversation with her out burst, her cheeks flamed but she grinned mischievously none the less. "Continue youse lovely conversation, sorry." and sat down on the crate next to the steps, pulling her legs up to sit indian style on top of it.

"Oi!" Blink gave Bumlets a noogie, before winking at Sweets. "I'm hurt, mate! Ye always thinking its a lass! Can't I just be happy to see my friends!?" He laughed, pushing off his male friend, going to give Sweets a one arms hung. "Unless you want to be that lass.." He was kidding, of course.
Blink jumped a bit as the new girl landed, looking her up and down. "Flair for the dramatic, eh?" If she knew his friends, well then she was a friend. "Kid blink at your service." he bowed, winking.

Bumlets held up his broomstick handle and gave Manhattan a half smile, "Ignore him-- all he's got are dames on the brain.." But it was one of the reasons they enjoyed Blink so much.

Sweets playfully shoved Blink away, but appreciated the hug none the less. "Flair for the dramatic? You look in a mirror lately?" She grinned at Bumlets' remark, but replied in a mock sympathetic tone, "Well now lets be fair, he also thinks about food.. alot."
