Davey Gets Even is a Newsies parody fic by Andrea that was popular (and perhaps infamous) in the early fandom. It relied heavily on shock humor. It serves as both an example of transphobia in fandom and the first known portrayal of Jack Kelly as a trans man. It also referenced the David/Denton ship.

Reactions and Reviews

Off topic, but one of the best stories I've ever read.

I also have wondered why everyone calls this legendary. Although I know the answer, I just like to wonder :0) Anyways, it's just what the title says - Davey gets even with all the newsies who make fun of him. He exposes their disgusting secrets. I found it very harsh especially about the stuff on Irving Hall. I know one of my fics ((Speaking Sessions)) can be kinda a little related to Davey Gets Even but not quit.
