Fantastic Beasts One-Shot
The Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Creatures link
Summary
It's June 1943, and Newt Scamander and Tina Goldstein are living in Dorset with their first child while Tina heads the American Auror initiative in Europe. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Magic has just begun working with the Allies to plan for the invasion of Nazi-occupied Europe through Normandy, via Dorset's neighbouring English Channel. Newt and the rest of Dumbledore's team are still on Grindelwald's radar, and news of Ministry reconnaissance employing a certain magizoologist and a kelpie ends up in the wrong hands. Newt is brought before his own department for Animal Welfare violations, but it quickly becomes clear that this isn't really about the kelpie at all: war is about subtle threats as much as it is about violence itself, and--with the weight of his daughter strapped to his back and the memories of missions gone wrong in his mind--it doesn't take much to remind him of that. // This is equal parts adorable domestic fluff and historical-based angst.
EXCERPT*
June 7, 1943 - 8:45 AM Seaside Dorset, England, UK
Newt was juggling a child under one arm and a crutch under the other when an owl carrying a bright red, Ministry-embossed envelope swooped in through the open window of their house in Dorset. He ignored the owl for several minutes in favour of heating Leora’s porridge and preparing his own tea, absentmindedly reciting the taxonomic ranks of magical and non-magical salamanders to keep his daughter entertained while he worked.
When he’d finally gotten them both settled at the table (only dropping her bottle and his crutch twice) and triggered the daily charm that gently shovelled porridge into her mouth long enough for him to read their morning post and skim the Prophet, Ghost, and muggle headlines, he was surprised to find the address on the scarlet envelope stamped with the crest of the Beasts Division, as opposed to the urgent letters he was more used to receiving from the Auror Office these days.
He glanced up at Leora and cleaned off her chin with a calloused thumb and warm smile, and then slipped on his glasses and ripped into the letter.
He immediately blinked.
The thin stack of papers was topped with his own division’s letterhead, but then typed firmly below it in the blanks of an auto-filled, enchanted department form (that he had, decades ago, designed one of the charms for):
The Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Creatures and the Animal Welfare Office summon Newton Artemis Fido Scamander for unauthorised possession, transport, and misuse of a beast (kelpie); the endangerment of a beast (kelpie); the injury of a British citizen (wizard, civilian) by an untamable or mishandled beast (kelpie); and a Grade 5 infraction of the International Statute of Secrecy (ICW) for all of the above.
Newt stared at the page, reached down to scratch at the deep, slowly healing bite inflicted by the referenced kelpie (Moira), and then actually, truly laughed.
He was authorised (blanket-authorised to work with kelpies actually!) and the only injury—due to his own stupid mistake—had been his own.
What the hell was going on?
Sentencing: Up to and including disposal of the beast (kelpie) and/or 30 months in Azkaban (Scamander). Hearing to commence: Noon today (June 7) on Level 4 (Department for the Regulation & Control of Magical Creatures) at the Ministry of Magic, London.
Typical threats for the accusations and—though a thoroughly inconvenient timeframe (even if not an unusual one, given how often handlers tried to dispose of evidence)—he wasn’t particularly concerned by them. His work and care for the kelpie had been—even if off-the-record—assigned by the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, and that should speak for itself. However, as he read through the full two pages of the summons while Leora babbled musically beside him, it became—quickly—significantly less humorous…
…and unregistered transport of a creature from Britain to an international waterway for labour-related purposes constitutes unlawful trafficking. Furthermore, use of the beast in a non-native habitat (saline and/or brackish) outside its natural biome (freshwater: inland) should be considered particularly egregious. Note: Report and recommendations prepared by Alice Abbott, junior investigator (Beasts Division - Animal Welfare). Original investigation completed by Antony Flint, senior investigator (Beasts Division - Illegal Trade).
The details in his summons—frankly—should not have been known by anyone outside of the joint wartime DMLE-Muggle Liaison task force he’d recently been brought onto, in response to the Allies’ decision to breach the Nazi’s Atlantic Wall at France, via the English Channel. [1, 2, 3] The Ministry had finally become invested in the Muggle war when it was made clear a few years before that Grindelwald and his supporters were not at all above hiding behind—and occasionally utilising—Muggle warfare and Nazi ideology to thoroughly infiltrate every crack of the continent, and entire world.
But the task force was classified. And rather highly so. Newt had barely made the cut himself. (Which, to be fair, really wasn’t that surprising.)
He flipped to the final page to review the list of all the academic references Abbott and Flint had used to justify his summons, and then he immediately found himself blinking again, before another disbelieving (and uncharacteristically loud) laugh burst forth—
“Are you kidding me!?”
Leora made a sound of mild concern at his exclamation, so Newt looked up long enough to offer a simple explanation in soothing tones. (So sorry — I know that was an unusual noise from Daddy, little light. But that’s, um - just one way humans express, er - frustrated amusement? Can you remember that? He didn’t think she really needed such explicit instruction—even at 14-months her eyes tracked faces just like Tina’s—but Newt wasn’t taking any chances.)
She opened her mouth again for the levitating spoon of porridge, so he flattened the parchment back down and hunched over to skim... *I’m sorry if you’ve already read part of this excerpt when I posted a snippet earlier -- there’s not a good choice for flow besides this one!

L&L Scamander Headcanons:
Leander and Lycidas are the firstborn twin sons of Newt Scamander and Tina Goldstein.
They were born around 1946, a year after the marriage of their parents and the imprisonment of Gellert Grindelwald.
The boys enrolled at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the year of 1957.
Leander was sorted into Hufflepuff house like his father and uncle before him, while Lycidas was sorted into Ravenclaw.
I’ve decided that Lycidas should be in Ravenclaw due to the Goldstein family having ties to the house through an English relative, Anthony Goldstein.
Leander’s godparents are Jacob Kowalski and his father’s “indispensable” assistant Bunty Broadacre.
Lycidas’s godparents are Eulalie “Lally” Hicks and Theseus Scamander.
The only reason why Queenie isn’t the godmother of one of her nephews is because Tina wanted to wait until she had a daughter.
The twins grew up in England, but oftentimes visited their Kowalski relatives in America during the holidays.
For the most part both of the boys have British accents, but here and there you can sometimes hear their mother’s American twang slipping through, especially when they get excited or upset.
Leander and Lycidas were in their fourth year when Bellatrix Black enrolled at Hogwarts in 1962.
By the time Andromeda had began attending in 1964, the twins were already in their sixth year at Hogwarts.
With that being said, they didn’t have many interactions with the Black sisters as the twins were a bit older than the Marauders era.
I suppose in the original canon we could say that Leander and Lycidas were around when the Mcgonagall brothers were still at Hogwarts.
I’d pin Malcolm’s birth around 1940, and maybe Robert Junior would be a year or two younger than him so his year of birth would probably be 1942.
When the twins enrolled at Hogwarts Mal would’ve been seventeen, while Bob would’ve been fifteen.
But with the way HP canon is going right now we don’t actually know what years in which the Mcgonagalls were born, especially with Minerva’s plothole appearance in SoD.
Lycidas is a left-brainer, he is very strategical and thinks more with his head rather than his heart.
He is much like his uncle Theseus in this way, although Lycidas has a creative mind and is very skilled with charms.
This is something I’d think he would get from his godmother Lally.
I could see Lycidas maybe learning one of those portkey charms like the one Lally had with her book.
When he graduated Hogwarts, Lycidas planned on becoming an auror like Tina and Theseus.
Leander is the one who inherited his father’s compassionate nature and affinity with magical creatures.
He has a very sensitive soul and can be a little scatter-brained sometimes like Newt.
But one thing is for certain and that is not to underestimate him.
Leander has his mother’s stubbornness and his father’s inability to follow the rules.
Although these traits may be the culprit behind the countless detentions he’s received during his school years… oops.
Both Leander and Lycidas joined the Order of the Phoenix when Dumbledore first established it in the 1970s.
Lycidas is the father of Rolf Scamander, therefore making him the father-in-law of Luna Lovegood, as well as the grandfather of Lysander and Lorcan.

Birthday Celebration With Friends—An Imagine
Imagine Newt, Theseus, Queenie, Jacob, Tina, Lally, and Albus celebrated your 30th birthday with you. Jacob made mini gluten-free, dairy-free, and nutmeg-free apple pies (because it’s also Pi Day, and you love pie but have dietary restrictions), Queenie and Lally made your favorite food for dinner, Tina got the place cleaned and set up, Albus and Theseus shopped for the grocery items and also brought over a few games to play, and Newt handcrafted you a gift that you loved.
You all had a great time together, eating, laughing, and playing games. They looked at you with so much warmth in their eyes, and they were so happy to be there with you.
They loved you so much. And you loved them so much, too, and you loved being there with them, too. You were so happy.
It was a great birthday.
———————End of Imagine———————
It’s crazy that I’m 30 now. I’m not in my 20s anymore. Wow. That’s kinda scary lol.

AdA, Kapitel 78: Nur das Beste für Newt
Noch vor wenigen Tagen hatte Newt geglaubt, dass er sich nie wieder vor einer sozialen Situation fürchten würde, jetzt, wo er es erfolgreich geschafft hatte, Tina um ihre Hand zu bitten. Damals hatte er nicht darüber nachgedacht, dass er zum Sonntagstee bei seinen Eltern aufkreuzen musste, gerade einmal eine Woche, nachdem er sich das letzte Mal dazu durchgerungen hatte – um ihnen zu eröffnen, dass er tatsächlich und entgegen allen Erwartungen der Verwandtschaft bald ein verheirateter Mann sein würde. Er hegte keinerlei Zweifel daran, dass seine Familie sich freuen würde. Aber er fürchtete die Aufregung und das schiere Ausmaß an Organisation, das seine Mutter für nötig halten würde, und die Einmischung in Fragen, die eine Angelegenheit zwischen Tina und ihm waren. Er hatte von dem ganzen Wirbel bei Theseus‘ Verlobung schon mehr mitbekommen als ihm lieb war.

Rosegold + Rosier cousins HCs
After Grindelwald’s imprisonment in 1945, Aurors rounded up all of his acolytes and supporters to put them on trial for charges ranging from conspiring against the Ministry to risking the exposure of the wizarding community.
The Rosier family had already been acknowledged as Grindelwald’s most loyal followers, and so they were the first called to the stand.
Étienne and Druella’s father was pardoned for his association with Grindelwald as of 1936, but Vinda remained an acolyte up until Grindelwald’s defeat at the hands of Dumbledore.
As his right-hand woman she got the brunt of the backlash, enduring scorn and condemnation. Vinda had been more than just a follower; she was a strategist, a facilitator of Grindelwald’s ambitions and that made her dangerous.
Vinda would not be overlooked by the court, but her imprisonment was unlikely due to the Rosiers being notorious for their ability to pull strings within the government.
Her nephew Étienne took part in the trial due to his early involvement with The Alliance; he would often be exposed to the sinister plans of Grindelwald’s followers during the dinner parties hosted by his parents where all Alliance members were in attendance.
He started going to these parties by the time he was ten, which probably took place somewhere around the time his father was imprisoned.
Étienne played a vital role in keeping his aunt out of jail, for in his testimony he claimed her of being innocent. He would go on to say that Vinda had been mislead by Grindelwald and that her participation in the heinous acts committed by the acolytes should be disregarded as a result of manipulation and coercion by a powerful dark wizard.
Grindelwald took advantage of her fear of the muggle race to get her to do his bidding.
“She was only trying to protect her family.” That was the excuse used by Étienne during his final plea in attempts to keep Vinda out of jail.
And with that, the plea of a young eighteen-year-old, freshly out of Hogwarts wizard, as well as the Rosier family’s own influence over the court as a whole (which included the support of other pure-blooded families who didn’t wish to see a noble witch being imprisoned for crimes that they thought were rightfully justified) was able to prevent Vinda from being detained at the French Ministry.
At Vinda’s side was Queenie, who in this universe had not defected from Grindelwald and instead remained an acolyte for the sake of her partner.
Queenie’s case was easiest as she claimed that she had been unwillingly recruited by Grindelwald under the Imperius curse. And even without this claim, she hadn’t caused harm to neither witches or wizards, nor had she performed magic in front of a muggle with the intention of killing or hurting them.
She was really only guilty by association, and her familial connections with Tina made Queenie’s testimony excusable enough for her not to receive any charges.
With this being said, Queenie and Vinda moved into a French villa owned by the Rosier family in Paris. By 1946 they had their first son, which was around the time Tina and Newt had their twins Leander and Lycidas.
Queenie wasn’t exactly on speaking terms with her sister after what happened with the whole Grindelwald fiasco, but I believe that once Queenie and Vinda’s baby was born they started making peace with the whole thing.
It all started when Queenie reached out to congratulate Tina on the birth of her twins, whilst she was also due to deliver her son any day at that point.
Queenie even knitted quite a few baby clothes for her nephews to send with the card, which Tina accepted with gratitude and remorse at the fact that she was the one who had let her and her sister drift apart.
Tina blamed herself for Queenie’s recruitment into Grindelwald’s ranks. Thinking about Queenie only made Tina spiral during the time the sisters weren’t speaking to one another.
Any time a thought of Tina’s sister popped into her head, she couldn’t help but allow her mind to be flooded with all the ‘if only’s’ that plagued her ever since she realized that Queenie had left.
Tina was the elder sister, Tina was the one responsible for Queenie. And yet, Tina let her go astray. Was it all her fault? No. But Tina thought it was and that was enough for her to drown in her own shame and guilt when she received the letter and baby clothes from Queenie.
To keep a long story short, the sisters reunite and Tina is present for the birth of Queenie and Vinda’s son.
The baby was Étienne and Druella’s first cousin. Vinda and her brother had no other siblings, so Rosier Snr was the only one out of the two siblings to have children up until Rosegold had their son.
The relationship between Étienne and Rosegold’s son is something that could be comparable to the non-canon ‘uncle-nephew’ bond between Regulus and Draco.
The Rosier siblings were significantly older than both their cousins as Rosegold’s children were born around the same time as Druella’s own children.
When Rosegold’s son was a baby, Étienne and Druella would babysit him. At first they didn’t exactly know what to do, especially because their own parents had little interaction with their own children during the earlier years of their upbringing.
This was the first household where Druella and Étienne visited that didn’t have a house elf or squib nursemaid to look after their employer’s children.
Étienne learned to soothe his baby cousin to sleep by reading to him. Sometimes, he’d fall asleep on the rocking chair in the nursery while the baby rested on his chest.
Changing diapers? Well let’s just say that Druella and Étienne would play a game called “toss the baby”, almost like hot potato but instead it’s a brother and sister tossing a baby back and forth from one to another because none of them want to change their cousin’s diaper.
Rosegold’s daughter was born in 1948 and so was only three years older than her first cousin once removed Bellatrix Black.
Ya know how the eldest daughter can be both a mother and older sister to their younger siblings? Well that basically sums up Druella. She was almost like a third mother figure to her little cousin, in some ways Rosegold’s daughter was Druella’s first baby.
Ella was no longer in her era of girlhood, she was now a grown, married woman. She helped introduce Rosegold’s daughter into society. She took her to balls and formal banquets, anything to get her cousin out there.
Étienne was closest with Rosegold’s daughter. I mean, of course Druella loved her little cousin, but she was oftentimes busy with starting her own family by the time the baby was born.
Sooo Étienne definitely had more time on his hands. He married a little bit later than his younger sister and had children towards the time Rosegold’s daughter started at Beauxbatons.
He would often pay surprise visits to his cousins in France, taking Rosegold’s daughter on tea dates, or antique shopping. Étienne was like the fun older brother and was more involved with the Rosegold children than his sister was.
With Rosegold’s son, Étienne would take him to Quidditch games, or tours through the Ministry.
Étienne often was encouraging his cousin to start considering job options for once he graduated, so if Rosegold’s son had any interest in an occupation within the Ministry, then Étienne could pull a few strings if needed.

If you like a bit of Christmas cozy fluff, then this is a short story for you.
That was nice and sweet, I could picture the scene well in my head. And your English was excellent in this little fluff. Very well written indeed.
So... I quit my WIP yesterday, just the time for a little fluffy soothing Yule fic. I wrote that short OS in a couple of hours yesterday and posted right away on an impulse because I missed and needed them.
"A soft Yule"
https://archiveofourown.org/works/52428934
I hope you'll enjoy and Happy Holidays no matter what you celebrate (or don’t).

&Team OT9 (Headcanon) : They Are Born to a Wizarding Family in the Harry Potter Universe
What if &Team was born into a wizarding family? (AU : There was no crime committed by Lord Voldemort 'Tom Riddle' and Gellert Grindelwald AKA There are no magic wars or 'chaos')
• Warnings : Grammatical errors
• A/N : I got really excited while writing this headcanon, my inner Potterhead came to the surface for Teamies again!🥺🫶🏻. This time I will really write according to the headcanon that I created again for the teamies, sorry if this doesn't match what you think. Because this is really pure headcanon that I created from my own imagination.
// EUIJOO //
• Family : Goldstein
• English Name : Eugene Alexander Goldstein
• Family Members :
- Parents : Aster Goldstein & Vena Goldstein (Author Headcanon)
- Siblings : Anthony Goldstein (Younger brother)
• Blood Status : Half-Blood
• Hogwarts House : Ravenclaw
He was born as the eldest son of the Goldstein family. His godfather is Newt Scamander, husband of his distant relative, Porpentina Goldstein. He has one younger brother who was in the same year as Harry Potter, Anthony Goldstein.
Since childhood, he has had a talent for magic which is relatively fast developing, because of his intelligence. He is the art lover in his family. His focus in art is music and singing. He has a beautiful voice and is good at playing musical instruments, one of which is the violin. He often appeared and played music at Goldstein family Christmas parties or in front of other relatives. His parents were truly like a diamond in the rough as their firstborn son truly showed his true Ravenclaw side.
At the age of 11, he entered Hogwarts and was sorted into Ravenclaw house. He argued briefly with the sorting hat because the sorting hat said he was also suitable for Slytherin. His first friend at Hogwarts was Cedric Diggory, they first met on the Hogwarts Express when Cedric was looking for an empty compartment to sit. He and Cedric became good friends even though they were in different houses, they competed healthily about winning the house cup. Not only with Cedric, he is also close to his distant cousin, Rolf Scamander, who is the grandson of his godfather.
Euijoo joins the duel club and the Slug club. Professor Slughorn invites Euijoo to the club he owns because apart from being smart, he has a beautiful voice. A sign that he was Professor Slughorn's favorite student. Euijoo is one of the songwriters for Professor Flitwick's unofficial glee club. He is often asked by Professor Flitwick to write some songs if needed, he is willing to be selfless when doing that. He was once invited to join the Ravenclaw Quidditch Team because some of the Ravenclaw Quidditch members knew he had an athletic side too, but he refused. He doesn't like extreme sports even though he has good flying lessons.
Euijoo is Ravenclaw's prefect. One of the strong candidates to be the head boy because his grades are really above average. He really had perfect manners as he never misbehaved with his fellow students, he just wanted to focus on his grades and stay away from some of the naughty kids.
(This is the fact) A high tolerance for alcohol, he could drink up to four bottles of fire whiskey without faltering.
Euijoo has the main target of becoming an Arithmetic teacher and opening an official choir club at Hogwarts. When he said he wanted to be a teacher in front of his friends, his friends immediately said that the position would definitely be 'secured' by the head of Ravenclaw house, Professor Flitwick for him. It was as if he really would find it easy to become a teacher because of his good behavior and grades during school (Imagine Euijoo being your teacher/professor, I could be Jesica if he became a teacher🧍♀️)

• Family : Longbottom
• English Name : Asher Frank Longbottom (GEMINI AI)
• Family Members :
- Parents : Frank Longbottom & Alice Longbottom
- Siblings : Neville Longbottom (Younger brother) // Galena Longbottom (Younger sister) = Author's Headcanon
- Grandparents : Augusta Longbottom (Paternal grandmother)
• Blood Status : Pure-Blood
• Hogwarts House : Gryffindor
He was born as the first son of the Longbottom family. His birth was welcomed very happily by his family, especially his paternal grandmother, Augusta. Because finally after all this time the Longbottom family had another child around them. His godparents are Lily and James Potter, making himself very close to the Potter family, including Harry. He has one younger brother and one younger sister, Neville and Galena.
His athletic side began to emerge when he was six years old. At such a young age, he could already ride and control a broomstick well. However, his magic sometimes went too far because he accidentally destroyed his grandmother's display cabinet which contained antique and valuable objects. At that time, he was still four years old. He is skilled in Muggle martial arts such as taekwondo.
Fuma enters Hogwarts and is sorted into Gryffindor house. The sorting hat screamed Gryffindor in less than five seconds when it was placed on his head.
His best grades were in flying lessons, which Professor Mcgonagall immediately knew about. Fuma is immediately included in the list of next Quidditch players if his seniors who are in their seventh year graduate. Professor Mcgonagall knew Fuma would not refuse this, she knew very well Fuma was very obsessed with Quidditch. That really made him very compatible with Oliver Wood, they had an extraordinary madness about Quidditch. Because of Fuma's INTJ brain, Slytherin is sometimes quite overwhelmed by Fuma's Gryffindor strategy.
PROTECTIVE OLDER BROTHER TYPE! He rarely acts harshly, but he really won't use his mouth anymore to 'expel' someone who goes too far towards his two siblings. He once punched Marcus Flint so hard that his nose was broken because Marcus dared to make inappropriate advances towards his sister, Galena.
He has a huge crush on Carina Black, pretty and sweet daughter of Sirius Black and Marlene Mckinnon. He first met Carina when they were five years old, and at Carina's birthday party. He initially thought it was just childhood love, but his feelings continued.
Even though he has a great passion for Quidditch, Fuma wants to be an auror like his father, he wants a job that can protect and be useful to many people.

- Cousins : Draco Malfoy, Nymphadora Tonks = Maternal Cousins
• Blood Status : Pure-Blood
• Hogwarts House : Slytherin
Born into a family that was a member of the Sacred Twenty-Eight, he had abundant wealth since childhood. His father and mother were both born into wealthy wizarding families and firmly adhered to pure blood supremacy. His mother was the second daughter of the Black family and Bellatrix's twin. Making him have the blood of a noble wizard family. Being born into a family that upholds pure-blood supremacy means he also has 'bad' values towards non-pure-bloods. He thought that pure-blood wizards were the highest caste and no one could 'defeat' them. This made him have a strong hatred towards the exiled members of the Black family. He had a very bad relationship with Andromeda, Sirius and Nymphadora, thinking that they were both just bad offspring of the Black family.
He is the main heir of the Nott family, he is the favorite grandson of Cygnus and Druella even though he was 'not' the heir to the Black family, because of his sharp temperament regarding pure-bloods. His elegant and unassuming temperament also makes him really show that he is the dream grandson for Cygnus and Druella. He is also Bellatrix's favorite nephew.
He was a true Slytherin, and those values had really emerged since he was very little. The sorting hat was a no-brainer to put him in Slytherin. His soul was truly strong.
He is one of the best Quidditch athletes in Slytherin. Several times he 'carried' his team to win the house cup for Slytherin. He has a completely different nature to his younger brother, Theodore. Theodore tends to often cause trouble at Hogwarts, making his parents often summoned to Hogwarts. His relationship with Theodore is not very good, especially since Theodore hates being compared to him. Theodore's temperament did not show that he was born from a magical family of royal blood. He has good academic grades in all subjects and has never had bad results or revised.
Draco and him were quite close, what's more they were direct cousins. They both have the same arrogance, although Kei looks calmer and can show his arrogance subtly. He is very hostile to Nymphadora even though his cousin tries to be nice to him.
Even though he is rich, he is not the type of playboy who can play with girls. He had refined tastes that definitely equaled his status. If anyone asked what type of girl he was, he would immediately answer Daphne Greengrass or his mother. He doesn't have any feelings for Daphne, but his type of girl is Daphne. Born into a pure-blood family, rich, elegant, intelligent and friendly-mouthed.

• Blood Status : Pure Blood
• Hogwarts House (Current School) : Slytherin
↪️ Durmstrang House (Former School) : Atticus
Born to very strict parents, having a dark aura and being a pure-blooded maniac, Nicholas had a pretty crazy childhood. Since he was little, his parents always taught him that they were the highest among wizards, namely pure-bloods. His parents' dislike of non-pure blood people made Nicholas also experience the same temperament as his parents. His parents married without love, only an arranged marriage to strengthen their pure-blood connection, making Nicholas also grow up seeing his parents never having any warmth towards each other. He was used to seeing his parents arguing and cursing at each other. One of his main triggers is that he is temperamental. His mother was the type who cared little about her children, while his father was very favoritism. His father loved his older sister, Cassiopeia, more. For Rodholpus, Cassiopeia is his happiness and pride for some reason. It was as if Nicholas had never existed in front of his father, even though he was his heir.
His godparents are Narcissa and Regulus. He tends to be closer to his uncle and aunt compared to his parents. They were both like home to him.
At the age of 11, Nicholas was sent to Durmstrang for his studies, not Hogwarts. Sending him to Dumstrang was his father's idea which of course was done without asking Nicholas. Nicholas of course didn't want to go to Dumstrang, because it was very far from where he lived even though in the end he studied in Dumstrang for three years. He moved to Hogwarts in his fourth year after his maternal grandparents calmed down an argument with his parents that Nicholas should be at Hogwarts. He was sorted into Slytherin house (OFC).
Having studied at Dumstrang, Nicholas made it easy for him to adapt to Hogwarts. Not only that, he was brilliant in subjects that actually contained black magic. His Quidditch experience at Dumstrang also made him an easy entry into the Slytherin Quidditch team and he also held the position of captain due to his crazy dirty strategies. Even though he was brilliant in all aspects, Nicholas was also a troublemaker at Hogwarts, he was naughty and sometimes often caused trouble. His temperamental side also makes many students afraid if they accidentally disturb him.
Prima donna! Many girls are very crazy about him, not only because he is handsome, he is tall, wealthy, and has very good body proportions. His arrogant and toxic side made Nicholas become a playboy while he was at school. In a month he can date more than ten girls, and also easily dump them. The girl he was casually dating was not the type he wanted. If the girl he's dating is his type, he won't just let her go or let her go to someone else. Because what he gets he must get, and whatever he has will remain his.

- Cousin : Draco Malfoy = Maternal cousin
• Blood Status : Pure-Blood
• Hogwarts House : Slytherin
Being born as the only child of Evan Rosier made him bear a big responsibility as an heir. His father had high expectations of him, which made him have to be extra in every aspect. Luckily, his mother was a gentle person who could support him emotionally. His grandfather, Abraxas Malfoy, gave him a special bracelet for his 11th birthday, a bracelet that had a beautiful snake design and was plated with gold.
His childhood best friend was Luna Lovegood, the only daughter of his late godmother, Pandora. Yuma and Luna are a duo that can never be separated. Every Christmas they routinely go on holiday together. Yuma always listens to Luna's chatter, even though sometimes Luna talks about strange things, Yuma understands that. He knew Luna must be a true Ravenclaw who was always curious about many things. While at Hogwarts, even though he and Luna were in different houses, Yuma was of course still good friends with Luna. He even occasionally protects Luna from several people who always bother Luna because they think she is strange and crazy.
Yuma is weak in potions, but he still maintains good grades. Because his father didn't like him getting a bad grade in even one subject. Apart from potions, Yuma is also weak in flying lessons, he once fell from his broomstick and hit a window, causing quite serious injuries. But yeah, the value of the lesson is still good. However, he is a pro in the duel club. His spell abilities are truly above average, making Professor Flitwick really like Yuma who is quick to respond to spell lessons.
Yuma and Draco were also quite close at Hogwarts, what's more they were direct cousins. However, Yuma didn't really enter Draco Malfoy's circle. He didn't really like Draco's notoriously annoying circle.
Even though he is an introvert, in fact he really gets along with almost all the Hufflepuffs. Almost all Hufflepuff students know that Yuma is a good Slytherin.

Kneazle is renowned for its ability to sense danger and its loyalty. He named the kneazle Balisto.
When he was at Hogwarts, of course he was sorted into Hufflepuff house. The sorting hat had no hesitation in getting Jo into Hufflepuff. At Hogwarts, he was a 'master' at the Care of Magical Creatures subject. He got the best grades in his class in that subject, just like his brother. He is very close to Luna Lovegood (Who in the future Luna is his sister-in-law). He doesn't think Luna is strange or crazy, because they have the same preferences. He was always excited when there was a magical animal project with Ravenclaw, because he could talk at length with Luna about these animals.
Even though he looks unathletic, Jo is surprisingly athletic compared to his brother. He was even taller than Rolf. He was the chaser for the Hufflepuff Quidditch team, but when Cedric Diggory graduated, he was immediately drawn to become the main Seeker because of his increasing sharp speed. He often gets letters from several lines who experience it. He was included in the 'golden boy' group at Hogwarts, because not only was he handsome, he was very accomplished because of his own efforts.

His grandparents on both sides were among the wealthiest wizarding families in England. Moreover, his maternal grandparents' family belonged to the wizarding aristocratic family in France and England.
The person he envied the most was his older sister, Asteria. Because Asteria was her father's favorite. Meanwhile, he and Draco were always taught strictly by their father. But, even though he had quite a lot of jealousy towards Asteria, Maki was a more protective type of sibling compared to Draco. Asteria seemed to be walking with a high-ranking British royal guard who wouldn't let her touch anything he said could hurt her. Maki is a bit dramatic.
While at Hogwarts, he was the smartest student in his year. But also the most annoying student for Gryffindor. Like his older brother, Maki really often pranks Gryffindors. For him, Gryffindor was his biggest rival compared to Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff students.
He once had a big fight with Harry Potter about Quidditch. Harry thinks Slytherin cheated to win, because Oliver actually fainted because of what Slytherin did. This quarrel actually caused the points of the two houses to immediately drop, aka being cut by Dumbledore.

summary. the scamanders have their first dinner together in years, but theseus finds himself drifting further than ever. ships. theseus + newt, theseus x leta ( past ), newt x tina ( minor ) characters. theseus s., newt s., tina g., scamander parents word count. 2.3k setting. after crimes of grindelwald genre. hurt/comfort, grief, angst warning. mention of death + not beta-read
Two solid knocks on the door could only indicate the presence of Newton Scamander. Theseus stood up from the couch and made his way over. His face instantly lights up at the sight of his little brother and his fiancée, MACUSA Head Auror Porpentina Goldstein. He wraps his arms around Newt and holds him a little, and an unspoken “I missed you” makes Newt reciprocate.
Theseus senses the hesitation in his actions, and as much as he wants to hold him tighter, he’s in his 40s. So he lets him go and shifts his gaze to Tina. They both simultaneously take their hand out and share a silent handshake. It’s been a while since Theseus has met Tina - they’ve only ever communicated directly to each other through owls from work. But as Theseus welcomes them into the Scamander household, he recalls the short but very Newt-like letters about Tina. It’s endearing, he thinks to himself as he tells them to settle themselves; he’s grown up so well.
It’s already the 1930s, yet the supposedly golden boy and the War Hero between the two is the alone one here.
Theseus bitterly chuckles to himself. He’s so, so alone.
He hears his mother calling that dinner’s ready from the floor below. He makes his way down to see his father, Newt and Tina seated on one side of the rectangular table. Dishes flew and were placed on the table as Theseus made his way to a seat on the other side. Both his father and Tina were having a heartfelt conversation as Newt sat in the middle, clearly out of place but compensated by observing Tina with doe eyes. Theseus finds his eyes bouncing between the crazy amount of food on the table and Newt - it’s almost comical how fast the nights change.
Just a few years ago, Newt wouldn’t be attending such dinners, leaving the entire family (especially their mother) in a somewhat sour mood. He would forget to reply to his and their mother’s letters, and Theseus often found the responses arriving several months later on his desk. And he would definitely not be making such prolonged eye contact with anyone, especially not a female and an Auror. The thought of Newt choosing an American Auror over him, particularly after the many quarrels between him and Newt about the profession, leaves Theseus feeling a pinch of unnecessary bitterness.
No, not now, he reminds himself; this isn’t about you; it’s about Newt for once. Stop being so selfish.
But Theseus recalls the time that Newt said he wasn’t a good brother at all. It was childish, and both were saying things they didn’t mean. But both brothers knew he had crossed the line - they may have far too many disagreements with their affiliations, but their relationships were always something they never touched. He apologised and said he didn’t mean it like he always does. Yet Theseus could still feel the sting decades later.
For once, he’s the one that can’t make eye contact with his brother.
The dinner was fine until Mr Scamander mentioned how Theseus was still companionless.
“Theseus,” his father started, and Theseus lifted his head from his food in surprise at his name being mentioned for the first time that night. A sigh left the oldest Scamander’s lips, “We can’t have our older Scamander walking around single, can we? You’re already in your 40’s, for Merlin’s sake.” Theseus, as always, stiffly but casually dismisses his father. “I just haven’t found the right one yet.”
“Oh, but Thee, even Newt is engaged,” his mother dramatically huffs, clearly wanting to see her children get wed. Theseus looked in Newt’s direction, and Newt responded with an awkward smile. Theseus could only wave his hand in disregard: “Newt’s grown up a lot, mum. Unfortunately, he surpassed me when it comes to finding a lifetime lover.”
“But with this job,” Theseus continued, “I have to stay at the Ministry too much. Plus, I think the Ministry’s trying to push the Head of Magical Law Enforcement title on me since Mr Travers is…well, not known for his competent personality. And you know that’s far more than just being the Head of the Auror Department, especially at a time like this.”
His mother only looked disapproved. “Newt travels so much; we don’t even know his location most of the time!” She stops to turn to Newt, whose ears turn a soft shade of pink. “Yet he’s engaged to an American Auror. What are you waiting for: an American magizoologist?” It’s Theseus’ turn to be embarrassed as he groans under his breath at the comparison. Does he look like he wants to interact with more dragons and kelpies?!
“But what about Leta?” Tina speaks up in the conversation for the first time, and Theseus can only weakly glare at her, which takes her aback. Both the Scamander parents have intense dazes on Theseus, and Newt’s eyes are only screaming apologises to him. Not that it means anything anymore. “You were dating Leta?!” his mother practically yelled, “I hope it wasn’t the Lestrange.” There was no disgust in her voice, but the disappointment was thicker than Traver’s stack of untouched paperwork on his desk. And that’s saying something.
“What was between Leta and I is none of your business.” Theseus’ words come out harsher than he intended, but he wasn’t planning on having this conversation right now. At this point, he wasn’t sure if it was directed at his parents or Tina.
“You were snogging over the Lestrange. For one, you didn’t tell us. But secondly, we thought you were better than that, Theseus Scamander.” The strictness in his father’s voice makes him internally wince a little. “What’s wrong with Leta?” Theseus asks though it’s more of a threat if anything. His father stands up abruptly, causing Theseus, Newt and Tina to flinch.
“You know exactly what’s wrong with dating Leta,” his father reprimanded, “She was your brother’s first. That’s highly inappropriate of you, Theseus.” Theseus breaks away from his father’s eye contact to briefly scan over Newt. He could tell he was feeling guilty, but now wasn’t the place where Theseus could comfort him. He returned his focus to his father. “Am I not allowed to love who I want to love? What happened to ‘finding the right one’? What if Leta was the right one? What were you going to do about that?”
This time, it was his mother who spoke up. “Then you shouldn’t have tried to get her in the first place. You should have known who was off-limits. We thought you knew better.” Theseus could feel his blood starting to boil, but he tried to remain calm and keep a straight face as his mother continued to ramble. “You betrayed the Ministry’s trust to fight in a Muggle war, and came back a hero. Only to go after the Lestrange?! You had the morals to protect even the non-wizards, yet you didn’t have the morals to go after your brother’s ex?”
“You don’t know what happened between me and Leta, Mum!” Theseus defensively resorted. He could feel himself losing his temper with every new word. Activate ‘Head Auror’ mode, he tells himself. A switch he couldn’t reach right now because this was far too personal. “We don’t, but we don’t need to know what happened to know that it was highly improper of you!” his father states, his voice significantly raised by the end.
“Is that what you expected from me? To be the perfect son? Free from any mistakes?”
“No,” his father calmly but steadily answers, “We just wanted you to be a good example to your brother.”
“What about my happiness, dad? As long as Newt looked up to me and I did well in school, everything would be fine? Am I not allowed to fall in love?” “Oh it’s not like that, Theseus…” his mother’s voice was now softer, almost forgiving. “But you should know what you shouldn’t do. You’re the follower of rules here, Theseus.”
“There are no rules when it comes to love, mum! Weren’t you the one that told us that? Surely you aren’t backing out on your own preaches?” Theseus almost hates how mockingly the last part came out, but a voice in his head tells him it’s the right move. “I even got bloody engaged with her. But you wouldn’t know that because I knew you would all react like this!”
“Thee…” Newt’s soft-spoken voice speaks for the first time. “You didn’t tell them about the wedding?”
“Theseus Scamander.” Their father’s voice goes dangerously low, and Theseus can see how Newt instantly regrets his words. “There was a wedding, and you didn’t tell us about it?!”
“Well, it never happened, and it will never bloody will! Because she’s dead! She’s dead!” Theseus loses his temper as he finally shouts out. “Theseus, we thought you knew better than to hide secrets from us. Even Newt doesn’t do that anymore,” his mother tries to calm him down, to no effect. “Shut up! Shut up!” He suddenly stands up and storms off upstairs. The table shares hesitant glances at one another as the echo of a door slamming shut bounces off the walls of the Scamander household.
Theseus clenches his wand in his hand as he summons his briefcase. He wasn’t planning on pulling a Newt today - let alone talk about the unsaid relationship - but he couldn’t stay within these walls anymore.
Is this what Newt felt? He asks himself. Did Newt feel like the air had become suffocated and the walls had begun to close in too much?
Before all his items have been stored in his briefcase, he hears a knock at the door - two solid knocks. A second ahead of Theseus, he hears Newt’s voice say, “Alohomora,” and the door creaks open. He resists the urge to frown and lets out a heavy sigh as Newt’s figure appears. In Newt’s fashion, he stays still, not trying to close the gap between the brothers. Instead, he watches the items float into his brother’s briefcase, and it locks itself up afterwards. Theseus lets out another sigh, not wanting to let his emotions bubble over again but also knowing that he was going to have to be the one to speak up.
“Newt, are you alright?” “Shouldn’t I be the one asking you?” Theseus smiles a little, knowing that Newt is doing his best to be concerned. “I’m alright, Newt. But I’ll get going - I don’t think I’m welcome here for this dinner.” He feels Newt slowly approaching like Theseus is a demiguise that needs to be caught. Newt stops an arm’s distance away and continues to avoid eye contact. “Thee, you know me and Leta...” “Were never together,” Theseus finished Newt with a sign, “I know, I know. And by the way, tell Tina that it’s not her fault that our parents and I fought. She didn’t know. If anything, it’s mine.” Newt slightly nods and returns to the awkward Newt posture he’s always in.
Theseus picks up his suitcase and approaches Newt. He pats his shoulder before telling him, “I’ll be off now, Newt. Please tell dad and mum that we can talk about this…sometime in the future.”
“Wait,” Newt calls nearly noiselessly, “Are you sure you’re alright?”
“I will be, Newt. Don’t worry about me, I’ll have it under control. You should go back down and continue eating dinner alongside Tina. Surely she’s feeling a little out-of-place there without you.” Theseus grins for the first time that night as Newt’s face turns pink from embarrassment. The older brother almost disapparates before he remembers. “Oh right, come ‘ere, Newt.” He throws his arms around Newt and holds him tighter than usual.
“Thank you for being the better son now,” Theseus whispers. He can see that Newt’s about to speak up when they break it up, but he disapparates before he can hear what he says.
Instead of apparating back home in the middle of London, he finds himself in his office at the Ministry. He tiredly makes his way to his chair and stares at the paperwork below him. They were still trying to catch Grindelwald’s tail - not easy when his goal to conquer the world means he’ll be in places far beyond Europe. But his mind wasn’t on Grindelwald’s capture right now, as much as it should be. Theseus turns his head to look at the shelf against the furthermost wall of his office. He stands up and approaches a moving picture of the Scamander family.
Newt was only two at the time, and he was ten. The family looked happily at one another as Newt was slightly wobbling while trying to walk away. His father was ruffling his hair as his mother eventually picked Newt up and kissed him on the nose.
But now, he’s the outcast of the family, a supposed backstabber to his parents’ trust. And he knew he wasn’t going to get it back as long as the relationship remained a sour subject to them and Leta’s death remained a sour subject to him.
You’re so, so selfish - the voice finally speaks up after the conversation - and so, so alone.
(Theseus swears he didn’t stay in the office all night, crying himself to sleep on his desk for the first time in a long time. Theseus swears he didn’t just stay because the house suddenly felt too big again, too big for just one person after Leta’s gone. Theseus swears he’s not resentful against anyone and that he didn’t cast the locking charm and the anti-alohomora charm on his door in fear that someone would see him in this state.
Theseus swears that he’s moved on from Leta’s death.)

Also! Since we’re bringing Terfling’s shit back into the limelight, let’s not forget the shit surrounding the Fantastic Beasts series that she wrote the screenplay of!
Leta Lestrange was the result of Corvus Lestrange forcefully using the Imperius Curse on her mother, Laurena Kama, and coerced into marrying him as well as being raped to conceive Leta. Again, this was Terfling's idea to literally make one of the only visible black characters in the series the byproduct of a white man's brutality and rape, and how this traumatized the Kama family.
Nagini being the only Asian woman in the series who not only was a literal "snake woman" stereotype, but became the unquestioning pet of a white, wizard fascist.
The Goldsteins' entire existence for clout despite the fact, not once, were the Goldstein sisters ever depicted as Jewish despite her claims that they were/are.
The fact that much of New York they depicted was racially homogeneous and almost devoid of POC minorities despite NYC at the time being anything but.
The fact that Grindelwald is depicted with both Holocaust imagery, Nazi-parallelism, and cast Johnny Depp for the role.
Leta was killed off in order to save the Scamander brothers, both two white men.
Ezra Miller continuing his role as Credence despite being a serial sex offender and abuser. Ditto goes for Depp and his casting despite being caught up in myriad abuse allegations at the time of Fantastic Beasts' filming and releases and how unapologetic JKR was in supporting him.
And this is just scratching the surface. Hogwarts' Legacy is definitely bad, but don't forget Fantastic Beasts and how blatantly horrible this series was, too!

five comfort characters, five tags
I'm starting a new chain before the old ones gets too long (I also was not alerted to being tagged!). So thanks for the tag, @zeldamacgregor! Can't pick favorites, so the list is no particular order.
Newt Scamander
I was so skeptical about Fantastic Beasts when I heard about it, but then I saw the trailer, and then the movie, and was instantly hooked. He's goofy, awkward, loves animals, and doesn't care what people think. Also, bless him, he has no clue how to woe Tina, when he doesn't even have to try. I KNOW there are problems with JKR and I do NOT support her, but that can't change the fact I like Newt.
2. Tina Goldstein
Badass female Auror who does what's right, even if it costs her her job. She protected Credence and went after his abusive mom to protect him (and his sisters), and though she was a little misguided with wanting to arrest Newt, she's awesome. She was able to go toe-to-toe with Grindelwald, and I just love her.
3. Will Graham
I like him because I guess I can relate to him a little. I love his dogs and his backstory, and though he's really dark, mad, and twisted, there are still good qualities about him. He gets his job done and kept wanting to do it because it felt good to catch the monsters, even when it and illness (and Hannibal) were driving him insane.
4. Alyssa Victoria Gardner
Main character of my favorite book series, Splintered. She goes to Wonderland and learns how to be tough, plus learns that she has magic, that there's a wild dark side to her, and embraces her madness and darkness. She's a queen (literally) and fights for both her guys and her family, and isn't afraid of her powers or that dark, twisted side of her once she's embraced it.
5. Alain from Pokemon XYZ anime
I found his character really fascinating, along with the story. His companion, Mairin (like the Mairin in my url), is also here because for me they're joined. They got their own special episodes and the whole Sycamore lab staff is his family. He's older than Ash, which lends a sense of maturity to things when they're together, and got mixed up in the wrong things, because he wanted to protect those he cared about. I love reading fics about them and their family, and rewatching the episodes.
Bonus:
Jayfeather from Warrior Cats
Grumpy med cat who doesn't give fuck. I do not need to say more.
No-pressure tagging: @keepmeinmind-01, @creative-girl, @inastarlesssky, @pragnificent, and @ajdrawsig
