Sometimes the only thing that gets me through the day is knowing I can escape into writing Scamander brother repartee. (18k words from the current posted point in Head Under One Wing…)
#I love them your honor#newt Scamander#Theseus Scamander#Scamander brothers#autistic newt scamander#the italics are bc AAC basically#because I headcanon newts dad worked with a buddy to come up with an enchanted parchment system when newt was a kiddo#and was having trouble communicating traditionally & in certain social situations#I’m heavily projecting of course bc I just got in trouble when I wouldn’t talk in public or quit being able to speak#and I think I’d have had a lot less stress growing up if my mom had been like ‘it’s not illegal for you to sometimes talk another way’#but anyway - the context of it for this scene outside me occasionally using fic for therapy is#that newts had a bit of a shutdown due to extreme emotional & physical stress and is having trouble verbally communicating#his elderly father came to visit him & brought him one of those charmed parchments from when he was like 7#and Newt refused it at first and then gave in — and theseus has rolled w it as if nothing has happened#but this scene is a heart to heart between the two brothers#about tina#but I’ve spoiled enough abt the second half of this story so I’m going to shut the fck up now#damn it I wish I was done with chs#12/13 slash 14/15#I have so many of the sequels already started but this boring ass fluff chapter is killing me#(not the *excerpt* chapter — the sweet newtina chapter I’m currently stuck on)#ok fluff isn’t boring but it’s also not my strength ok?#I relate to Newt for a reason#anywayyyyyyy#uefb rambles in the tags#my stuff#fic: with its head under one wing
