#i'm thinking this is ~fantastic beasts era new york bc it feels easier to justify like 15-30 kids living on their own w/o like. jobs.#or getting caught.#they refer to losing their memories as 'getting erased'#bc at a certain point of magic exposure. yea. a lot of important or key memories might just go Poof. and take your personality with it.#some of them have seen it happen and those are the horror stories that spread in whispers#they know what happens if any of them get caught.#most of them have seen the horrors of magic (obscurial incident anyone?) and some of them have seen the beauties (fixing new york)#(+ newt was a LIL flippant w magic while he was there and yknow i'm willing to bet there were some other instances a small concealed child-#-could witness; also the magical creature pastries in the bakery. the kids aren't stupid they know he got Erased)#featuring a small magical child ~5-6 named andy he doesn't want to be a wizard bc he'll have to leave the group or they'll be found#also he's scared of wizards (but not magic)#+ the group leader giselle ~11-14; nonmagical angry and scared she knew about magic the longest has seen the most and knows the streets#she can identify wizards and does her best to work w the other older children to switch locations when the wizards sniff too close#also a poltergeist type ghost? can't research the Troll's lore bc it's 4:30 am and i'm trying to sleep#but like. a ghost that can physically manipulate the environment and can't be seen by nonmagical people as such#feeds off magical energy but decided to stick with this ragtag mix of magic and no magic bc it's funny and he's also kinda attached to them#they love their poltergeist buddy even tho the nonmagical kids can't see him just what objects he interacts with#at some point newt scamander loses his niffler and it finds its way to these children who name it richard and take it stealing with them#they love richard he's large and cute and when set loose in a jewelry store he cleans it out in under a minute#when newt tracks his niffler back to their hideout they emergency evac + knock him out lmfao#i kinda imagine newt being sympathetic? like there was that thing w the little girl he couldn't save#and now these kids right and probably eventually he's told the story via giselle trying to threaten him into staying tf away#and he'd obv be extremely worried for these kids n the possibility of an obscurial?#also he has some strong Nonthreatening vibes and i feel like he's not a government snitch even if the films iirc are tryin to make him a cop#newt scamander is not a cop idc fuck canon and fuck jkr#idk it's 4:38 am and i'm just trying to scribble down the thoughts before they leave#and hopefully FALL.

*All My Fault* Newt x reader
◘ Anonymous asked:
Do you think you could possibly do an imagine where the reader and Newt are best friends but when Newt meets Tina he starts to ignore the reader. During the battle with Graves Newt gets really hurt while protecting the reader and Tina tells the reader to back off because it's her fault. Can the reader act like everything's fine but slowly stop eating and sleeping because of guilt until Newt notices. Lots of angst but a happy ending please. I hope this isn't any trouble. Thank you!
Tumblr media
◘ This does include a salty, mean Tina. So beware. Take note I am not a Tina hater! But if you don’t like Tina written in a negative light, then this probably isn't for you >.< That’s all! Carry on ^_^
Your stop in New York City alongside your best friend, Newt Scamander, had become a bit more adventurous than you two had initially planned. Unfortunately, some of Newt’s creatures had escaped his magical case and were scattered throughout the city. With the help of the new ‘friends’ you had made, you tried to work together to recapture them.
You didn’t dislike the new people you had met. In fact, Queenie was perhaps your favorite. Her constant smile and bubbly personality were welcoming and you warmed up to her rather quickly. Jacob, the no maj, was friendly and caring; someone you definitely enjoyed being around. Tina, however, seemed to capture Newt’s attention quite quickly and ever since he had spend nearly most of his time with her. Besides the fact that she had tried to turn you both in to MACUSA, Newt seemed to fancy her and seemed to pay less attention to you which honestly made you feel pretty awful. Newt had been by your side for years and you couldn’t imagine your life without him. He was like the sun in the sky and the stars at night for you. 
You were currently in search of one of Newt’s creatures, the Demiguise also known to you and Newt as Dougal. You were inside a Department store that was adorned in Christmas decorations and you were all huddled behind a giant mass of decorative wrapped gifts. 
“Try not to be predictable...” Newt whispered. You noticed Queenie, Jacob and Tina eye each other in confusion. You smiled to yourself knowing exactly why Newt had said that. 
“Y/N, go with Queenie and Jacob.” Newt motioned for you to follow the two as they were making their way in the other direction. Giving him a look of anger, you frowned and noticed how he didn’t tell Tina to move. Opening your mouth to object, Newt scurried away, Tina close behind him. 
“Fine... I’ll go go with them.” You mumbled angrily to yourself. Quickly, you pushed yourself up and quietly made your way in the direction Queenie and Jacob had gone. Catching up to them, you watched as Dougal appeared and in a moment of bravery, Jacob grabbed the Demiguise and instantly became dragged through the store. A loud crash echoed as he was knocked in to a display toppling it over.
“Jacob!” Watching as Queenie ran to his side, you stayed over in the corner watching as Newt and Tina ran by.
“Excellent work, Jacob!” Newt hurried past him and ran up a flight of stairs. No one seemed to notice your absence and honestly, you wished you could just disappear and blend in with you surroundings like Dougal could. 
After a few moments, Tina and Jacob followed behind the others and you decided you’d better too. Rushing up the stairs, you watched Newt slowly creep up behind Dougal. Without even a moments notice though, chaos erupted and everyone went in to a panic as the Occamy they had finally found went in to a state of panic. 
“Roach in teapot!” Newt shouted. Hiding behind shelving, you watched as the rest fought to catch the cockroach. Luckily, within moments the roach was caught, thrown in to the tea pot and the Occamy was placed back in to Newt’s case. You watched as Tina looks up at Newt asking him if that was everything.
“That’s everything.... and that’s the truth.” Newt waited a moment and you watched as Tina smiled at him and Newt smiled back. Your heart literally broke as you realized how Tina had replaced you. She was the one who made Newt smile now. She was the one Newt probably spent his time thinking about and wanting to be with. The pit of your stomach began to ache and you fought the tears that tried to escape your E/C eyes.
Newt had found a new best friend.
Moments before you were all inside Newt’s case when suddenly Frank, Newt’s Thunderbird alerted you all he sensed danger. Now on the rooftop of Squire’s, you all looked down at the mass chaos ensuing down below. The obscurial was destroying everything in it’s path. 
Everyone seemed to was for Newt to speak and when he did, your heart shattered.  “Tina, Y/N.” He turned to face you both. He threw his case in to your hands and reached in to his pocket. Pulling out his notebook he knew he kept all his information about his creatures in, he handed it to Tina. “If I don’t come back, look after my creatures for me. Everything that you need to know is in here.” 
“No!” Handing the case over to Jacob, you stomped over to Newt. “You’re going down there alone!” You were shouting at him and it not only startled him, but yourself too. Hardly did you ever raise your voice at the kind Magizoologist, but right now, you needed to grab his attention that for days now seemed impossible to get. Looking angrily in to his eyes, not only were you mad about his decision to go down there, but also that he had so easily entrusted Tina and you to care for his creatures. What was Tina going to do? If anyone here were capable of taking care of them, it would be you! How could he even think Tina was the right person. 
“Newt, you know this like no Obscurial you've ever seen. It’s too dangerous!” Grabbing a hold of his arm, you tried to keep your grip. Newt looked at you, then Tina, before pushing his arm away and apparating away.
“NO!” Tina and you seemed to shout in unison. Quickly, Tina thrust the notebook to Queenie before apparating as well. Angrily, you took your wand out of your coat pocket and instantly did the same.
You watched helplessly as Newt and Graves battled in the subway station. Spell after spell was being thrown. Unsure of what to do, you looked over at Credence watching as the tears and the fear in his eyes grew. It was only moments now before he would explode again. Your attention was turned back to Newt as you watched Graves throw his arm up in the air and point his wand at Newt. Fear was growing inside you and lifted your wand ready to cast at Graves.
“CONFRINGO!” You watched as the spell was cast from your wand. Graves turned to you and quickly moved. Your spell hit behind him causing the wall to explode and cast rubble flying everywhere. 
“NEWT!” Tina, on the other end of the subway station, ran over to where Newt was now lying. To your horror, you looked over and saw him on the ground, lying motionless. What had you done?
Graves lifted his wand one last time, ready to aim, when Aurors came spilling in alongside Madame Picquery. The battle continued and you watched helplessly as they Aurors destroyed Credence and then battled Graves. Once he was relieved of his wand, you quickly ran over to where Tina was now cradling Newt in her arms. 
“N-newt?!” Falling to the ground beside them, you instantly noticed the blood on his vest and jacket. “Oh my-”
“Newt, it’s okay..... It’s gonna be okay...” Tina had tears streaming down her face as she watched Newt struggle to keep his eyes open. 
“I didn’t mean to- I had no idea- I was trying-” Your throat felt as though it were closing and the pain in your chest was almost unbearable. Lifting your wand, you put it over his wound ready to cast a healing spell when Tina angrily swatted it away.
“You don’t think I tried that!? He needs more!”
Unable to speak, you looked at Tina who angrily looked away and back at Newt. He was seriously injured and it was all your fault. You were careless. Now, all you could do was sit there and look at your best friend who was in so much pain and suffering and there was nothing you could do.
Sitting inside Newt’s case, you were hunched over on a stool inside his hut staring at the ground. It had been almost two days since the incident and Newt had been doing fairly better. The rubble that hit him caused a pretty nasty gash, but overall, he would be fine in good time. 
Tina, however, hadn't left his side at the bed they set up for him at the apartment and spent nearly every waking moment sitting beside him and watching as he rested. You had emerged a few times to try and see him, but Tina would insist it wasn't a good time or you should try later. Queenie was around, but was rather sad due to her recent forced good bye to Jacob. You felt alone and all you wanted to do was hold Newt in your arms and apologize.
It was late evening and you decided you would try again to see Newt. Pushing the case lid up, you stepped out and noticed Tina wasn’t in the room. Feeling a rush of relief, you quietly made your way over to Newt’s bed. Gazing down at his freckled face, you watched him sleep. Sitting down in the chair beside the bed, you gently moved his cinnamon hair from his eyes and paused when he stirred just a bit. It brought you comfort to see him resting and not being in agonizing pain anymore. You searched for his hand, wanting to hold it, when Tina reappeared in the room.
“He needs rest.” Setting down a bowl of warm soup, Tina looked at you with cold dead eyes. 
“I just... he’s sleeping and so I wanted to... I was just making sure he was-”
“Honestly, what were you thinking?” Tina interrupted. 
“What?”
“The whole situation was unpredictable. You should have waited for MACUSA to show up and handle the situation!”
“I didn’t know they would show up or when they wou-”
“You didn’t think at all!” Tina spat. 
Tears began to sting your eyes and you felt yourself crumbling under Tina’s harsh words. Standing up, you brushed past her and made your way out of the room. You had hoped to find Queenie but assumed she was either in her room or out. Besides, she was dealing with her own heartbreak and you didn’t want to bother her with yours. 
Letting the tears fall, you sank to the floor and hugged your knees close. You don't know how long you cried for, but your eyes and body ached.
“Mummy will be back soon....” You were trying your best to take care of Newt’s creatures in his absence. It had been days since you last left the case. You had hardly slept or ate. Your eyes were in a constant state of pain from crying and you felt absolutely horrible. You struggled to keep your balance as you lifted the bucket of feed to take to the mooncalves. Your eyes were heavy and your legs felt like jello. Setting it down, you fell to the floor. Your hands hit the ground harshly and you felt the rocks scrape your palms. 
You pushed yourself up and noticed you had ripped your skirt. You didn’t care though. Lifting your hands up, you examined the cuts but your vision was so blurry. Dropping them, you fought to stand up. A gentle hand startled you as you looked over to see Dougal appear beside you and help guide you to the hut. Thanking him, you plopped down on the cot and stared at the ceiling. It was so quiet, given the sounds of the various creatures beyond the hut door. You missed the sound of Newt mumbling as he worked at his table or how he would shuffle about and sometimes bump in to think because he was so preoccupied and not paying attention.
Closing your eyes, you attempted to sleep full failed once again. Just like all the nights before, each time you closed them all you saw was the replay of Newt getting hit by the explosion and the blood that stained his clothes. Tina’s words played over in your mind like a broken record and you fought to turn it off. You knew it was all your fault. She was right. Why didn’t you just wait? 
Rolling over on to your side, you let the warm tears roll down your cheeks as you stared off in to the distance. You wondered how Newt was recovering and if he was mad at you. Surely Tina told him it was your fault. The fear of him being angry with you only made your tears worse. Struggling to breathe, you cried as you held yourself. 
Another sleepless night.
Newt had finally gained the strength to stand and walk. Tina had left the room to prepare some food for him when he decided to go looking for you inside his case. Tina had mentioned you'd been down there and he decided to check on you and his creatures.
Clutching his wound with one hand, Newt gently and slowly descended down the stairs in to his case. Landing gently, he walked through the hut and out in the habitats. Looking both ways, he searched for you but didn't seem to spot you. He figured maybe you had gone out and decided he would then go visit his creatures. 
Hobbling over to Frank he didn't realize you were near his habitat hunched over and fixing something.
“Y/N?”
Jumping, you turned around and came eye to eye with Newt. Seeing him clutching his bandaged wound along the side of his body, you winced at the slight sight of blood seeping through. 
“Newt!” Backing away, you hung your head down trying to avoid looking at him. 
“I- I was coming to see you... I haven't seen you and wanted to be sure you were okay.” His gentle eyes looked at you but you kept your gaze down.
“I’m- I’m fine.” You lied. 
You sensed Newt scanning you with his eyes. He knew you too well and knew you weren't okay. “Are you hurt at all?” He asked, reaching out to you.
Backing away with your arms hugging your waist, you answered quickly, “I’m fine.”
Staring at your feet, you suddenly saw Newt’s hand rest under your chin and gently raise your head up. 
“Merlin...” 
Looking up in to his eye, you saw the sadness that swept over him. 
“You look as though you haven't slept or eaten in days...” His voice was almost a whisper. You pushed away from him turning around quickly. “Y/N, please look at me...” 
“No.”
“Why?” Newt stood there, waiting for your response. You closed your eyes trying to fight the tears that were fighting to fall down your face. You finally answered him.
“I can't because.... because it’s all my fault....” It was as though your body had finally broke free and you burst in to uncontrollable tears. Your breathing was labored and your whole body was shaking. You felt so weak and you suddenly fell to the ground. A pain seared through your chest and your head felt as though it were hit by a ton of bricks. 
Falling beside you, Newt ignored the pain in his side and instantly wrapped you in his arms. It broke his heart to watch as you tried to break free, pushing him off, but your weak body was no match. The pain in his side only grew, but he didn’t care. He would hold you for however long it took for you to be okay, regardless of how much pain he would have to endure. 
He rested his head on top of yours and let you cry. Your shaking body and labored breaths seemed to only grow and he closed his eyes to fight back his own tears. Your cries stabbed him like knives in his heart and the feeling of you trying to resist him made his chest feel as though it were full of needles. 
He only hugged you tighter.
Neither one of you knew how much time had eventually passed until you had finally calmed down. Newt felt your body go limp in his embrace and he looked down at you. Your eyes were closed and your pale face was stained in tears. Dark circles were under your eyes and he noticed the scrapes on your hands. 
“Y/N...” He said your name in such a way of sadness. Holding you in his arm, he used the other to wipe the tears from your eyes. Finally, you opened them and looked up at him. 
“I’m so- so sorry, Newt” You choked. He looked down at you in confusion and tried to understand why you could be sorry. 
“For what?” He asked.
“I did this to you. It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have tried to help. I should have waited for MACUSA like Tina said and then all of this could have been avoided.”
“No.” The words left his lips without even a second thought. Your eyes shot up at him in confusion and you tried to understand. How was he not mad? “This is NOT your fault, Y/N. You did what anyone else would have done. You tried to help me and I’m grateful for that. You’re my best friend and I love you.” His lips curled in to his signature lopsided smile as he looked down at you. You fought for a moment trying to convince yourself he was telling the truth and not just trying to make you feel better. You knew Newt all too well and knew he wasn't one to say things he didn't mean. 
“I love you too” You replied. He kept his eyes locked with yours and after a few moments he finally began to stand, taking you with him. “You need to eat.... and you need to sleep.” Brushing your H/C hair from your face, he cupped your face in his hands. Your weak eyes looked back in to his and you nodded. Newt gently took a hold of your hand and kissed it. Smiling back up at you, he looked in to your E/C eyes and whispered, “I’m the luckiest man to have you in my life”. 
Smiling at him, you walked behind him as he made his way back to the hut and out of the case. Following behind, you emerged and found Tina standing there. She looked unamused and was about to speak when Newt looked back at you and said, “You can sleep next to me.” 
Without looking up at Tina to see her face, you walked over to the bed and got under the covers. Newt followed after and smiled down at you. He looked up at Tina and with a stern look asked, “Could you bring us another bowl of soup?”
OOOKKAAAAYYYYY. I really enjoyed writing this one. I hope you guys like it ^_^
