Chapter 1: Qilin
Fantastic Beasts 1 Masterlist / Fantastic Beasts 2 / Next Chapter
​​​Kweilin, China
1932
A lone raft floats along the river in Kweilin, one man steering it. He steers the raft up to this shore and stops once the raft hits the rocks. A little bowtruckle jumped from the raft to the top of the suitcase. He picks up his suitcases and started to walk up on the shore then up the hill. 
A loud moan like roar sounds out and Newt Scamander stops in his tracks as he looks around. Pickett, who was now on Newt's shoulder, looks then let's out a squeak as they hear the roar. Newt listened and took notice that the roars didn't sound angry, it sounded like a creature was in pain. "She's ready." He mutters and he heads up the hill.
He makes his way over and found a pregnant Qilin that was making the noise as she laid on her side, she was giving birth. Newt walks up to the creature and, gently, places his hand on her belly. The Qilin let's out one more pained roar then starts to get up, making Newt stumble back. "Whoa, whoa, whoa!" Newt said as the Qilin gets up. 
Once she starts walking away, Newt noticed an egg. The egg starts to move, like something inside was getting out, until it burst open, revealing a baby Qilin. The newborn then starts to get up on its legs and starts to walk. "Beautiful." Newt mutters as the mother starts to licks the newborn clean.
"Alright, you two. Now the tricky bit." Newt said as he sets his suitcases down, knocks on it and opens it. As the lid of the case opens, the sounds of footsteps could heard from it. Then (y/n) (l/n) emerges from the suitcase, her head at least pops up, and she stops and stares, in awe, at the Qilin. "Oh my..." she said, in awe and wonder. Then she looks up and over at Newt and the two share a smile.
Little did they know, that there were some people lurking about in the forest, they were also after the Qilin. Before (y/n) could fully climb out of the suitcase, a flash of green hits the mother which made her fall over. Newt and (y/n) were startled by this and Newt turns around and noticed three people behind them. Credence was one of them, which meant that these were Grindelwald's people.
One of them shoots another jet of green light at the creature while Newt puts up a large protective charm around them. "Get back inside." Newt tells (y/n) and she does as she's told, closing the lid behind her. Credence walks up to the protective charm and without any problems, tears a hole into the charm with his wand.
"Accio!" Newt shouts, pointing his wand at the suitcase. The case flies into his hand and he starts to run but falls down the hill, the case flying out of his hand as it tumbles down. He hears the baby Qilin cry out then runs over to it and grabs it and starts to run while Credence and his group fire spells at him as they chase after him.
Newt whistles and a creature's arms and legs come out on the edges of the case and begins to run as Newt runs and dodges the spell, still holding the Qilin. One of Grindelwald's men comes up and starts to grab at Newt but he fires a spell, knocking him back.
Newt kept running as the spells kept firing until he gets to the edge of a cliff. He starts to turn around when a spell hits him, making him fall off the cliff and into the water. Pickett starts swimming and goes over to a rock while the baby Qilin screeches out as it tries to swim and the creature in the case swims it to shore, close to Newt. Newt starts to wake up and sees Credence and his people grabbing the Qilin and take off.
Newt struggles to get up then looks down, realizing that he failed in his mission. 
Minutes later, he makes his way back to the mother Qilin, who was still alive but just barely. Newt sets his case down next to him and leans against the Qilin, giving her comfort for her final moments. "I'm so sorry." Newt whispers to her, apologetically. But then he heard another noise.
He turns around and found another baby Qilin, which started to slowly trot over to him. Shocked, Newt felt relieved as the Qilin goes up to him and he holds it in his arms, letting out a small relieved sob. "Twins. You had twins." He said as he looks over at the mother. The mother sighs her last breath as a tear runs down while the baby Qilin snuggles up to Newt.
Pickett goes over to the suitcase and he and Newt open the case, Teddy the Niffler pops out. Seconds later, there was footsteps and the upper half of (y/n) comes out.
"Newt, you okay?" She asked as she gets out of the case. Then she noticed the mother Qilin wasn't moving. "What happened?" She asked. "It was Grindelwald's people. They killed the mother and took the Qilin." Newt explained. "But it turns out she had twins." He said as he gestures to the baby in his arms.
"Can you move?" She asked him, worried. "Little bit." He said and (y/n) frowns then turns to the case. "Jason!" She shouts and a young man, eighteen years old, with dark hair comes out. This is (y/n)'s cousin, Edmund's and Isabella's son, and he had graduated from Hogwarts a year ago and decided to at least help Newt and (y/n) out with the creatures as a side job.
"Help me get them in." (Y/n) said to Jason as she gestures to Newt and the Qilin. "Right!" Jason said as he gets out of the case and they kneel down to Newt. "Okay, I'll take her. Okay, love?" (Y/n) said as she goes to reach out for the small creature.
Newt nods, slightly, and (y/n) carefully takes the Qilin in her arms then gets inside while Jason goes to Newt and places an arm around him. "Okay, Newt...on three. One...two...three!" Jason said and he helps Newt up on his feet and they slowly make their way down the steps.
(Y/n) walks out the little cabin then whistles at a creature, a Wyvern. It just swallowed a fish then looks over at (y/n) as she made a noise similar to a bird call. The Wyvern flies up and out the suitcase as Jason and Newt get in and they start to walk, well Jason mainly doing the walking as Newt leans against him.
"Put him over here." (Y/n) said as she points to a nearby bed and Jason helps set Newt down while (y/n) sets the Qilin down. "I'll go check on the Wyvern." Jason said and he runs out and up the ladder just as the Wyvern gets out of the case then he lets out call and begins to puff up. Jason smiles as he watches the neck of the creature puff up like a balloon until its tail wraps around the case. Jason gets down as the lid of the case closes.
The creature kept puffing out its neck until it sprouts wings and begins to take off in the rising sun.
Meanwhile, (y/n) goes to sit on the edge of the bed and look Newt over. "Anything hurting?" She asked Newt. "I'm fine, love. Just...a bit dazed is all. They knocked me off a cliff and I fell into the water. I just need rest." Newt assures her and she gives him a concerned look. "You sure?" She asked him and he gives her a small smile. He raises his left hand to her and places it on her right cheek. 
"I'm ok." He said and she gives him a small smile back then leans down to kiss him. Then there was a sound of someone clearing their throat and the couple look over and see Jason standing at the doorway. "The Wyvern is getting us home." He said and (y/n) nods at him. "Still don't know why we couldn't Apparate." Jason said. "Because Newt is hurt and I have to watch over him and, as I recall, you haven't pass the Apparition test." (Y/n) said with a cheeky smile.
"Hey, I'm getting better. Supposed to retake it here in a few days." Jason said and (y/n) chuckles. "Well, if you could attend to the Qilin, it would be most appreciated." She said and Jason nods. "Of course. I'll..uh...leave you two alone." He said as he walks off and (y/n) turns her attention to Newt.
"You sure you're okay?" (Y/n) asked him as she pushes back Newt's bangs away from his face. "Yeah...just need rest. Then we'll have to go meet up with Dumbledore." He said and (y/n) nods. "Well, I'll be right here, if you need anything." She said and Newt nods then closes his eyes and starts to fall asleep. The last thing he knew was the feeling of (y/n)'s lips on his forehead before he falls into a deep sleep.
Nurmengard
Meanwhile, Credence and some of Grindelwald's acolytes come up to his palace, the twin Qilin in a bag that Credence was carrying. Isabella was one of the first to walk out of the palace and she walks up to Credence and sees the bag he was carrying while Grindelwald comes up behind her. "Leave us." Grindelwald said to his people and they start to walk away while he looks over at Credence.
"Show me." He said and Credence pulls the Qilin out of the bag and holds it out to Grindelwald. Grindelwald takes the Qilin and starts to carry it as he walks around Credence and Isabella. "The others, they said it was special." Credence said. "Ooh, it's beyond special. "See?" Grindelwald said as he holds up the Qilin to Credence. 
"See its eyes? Those eyes see everything." Grindelwald said and Isabella smiles. "When a Qilin is born, a righteous leader will rise to change our world forever." Isabella informs Credence and he looks over at her as he couldn't believe what he was hearing. "Her birth brings change, Credence, to everything." She finished as Grindelwald situates the Qilin in his arms as he holds it then turns to Credence with a smile.
"You did well." He said and he places a hand on Credence's cheek. "Go. Rest." He said and Credence walks away. "You should go too, Isabella." Grindelwald said and she nods as she walks away while he sets the Qilin down on the ground.
From the front entrance of the palace, Queenie stands there and watches as the Qilin looks around and squeaks a few times. Grindelwald tries to get the creature to look at him but she doesn't as she keeps looking around and squeaks again.
Grindelwald picks up the Qilin then, with his other hand, slices the Qilin's throat with a small blade. Queenie jumps back, in fright, at this as the Qilin makes one more sound before it dies in his arms. Grindelwald sets the dead body of the Qilin down as a pool of blood forms. Grindelwald noticed that in the reflection of the blood, he could see Dumbledore showing off the blood troth him and Grindelwald made years ago.
He stares at it until the vision goes away and Grindelwald let's out a sigh, knowing that Dumbledore was gonna try and stop him.

Secrets Of Dumbledore (Newt Scamander x Female!Reader)
Tumblr media
Chapter 7: Bhutan
Previous Chapter / First Chapter / Next Chapter
In Nurmengard, an army of dark-clad figures assemble around the castle. Grindelwald and Credence make their way toward the castle, the figures part. Reaching the entrance, Grindelwald turns, surveying them. "Our time is close, my brothers and sisters. Days of hiding are over. The world will hear our voice. And it will be deafening." Grindelwald said and a roar goes up amongst the throng. Grindelwald smiles faintly, then his eyes fix on Kama, standing to one side in front of the cheering Acolytes.
Grindelwald steps over to him and, to Kama's surprise, takes his face in both hands. "You didn't come here to betray Dumbledore...You know in your pure-blood heart...your place is here. To believe in me is to believe in yourself." Grindelwald tells him as he stared deeply into Kama's eyes one more moment and walks him down into the crowd, gently pushing him into the assembled troops. "Prove your loyalty, Mr. Kama." he said before he releases him, before turning for the castle.
As the limp Qilin's head flops to one side, the laceration across its throat could be seen. Grindelwald picks up the creature then plunges it the body into the water, blood blooms from its ragged throat. Grindelwald stands waist-deep in the pool, shirtsleeves rolled up past his elbows.
He holds the Qilin underwater as he murmurs indistinctly, he waits for the water to grow still then whispers. "...Vulnera Sanentur. Rennervate Vulnera Sanentur." Credence, Vogel, Rosier and Isabella watch from the shadows. 
With great tenderness, Grindelwald plays his fingers over the Qilin's throat, mending the flesh there. Bubbles rise from the pool and the Qilin's head breaks the surface and it screeches. Grindelwald lifts it from the water and the Qilin turns its head to him, its eyes still eerily vacant, but otherwise appearing healthy and whole.
Grindelwald smiles and strokes it. "There. There, there. There...." he whispers. "Come, look." he tells the others without looking at them. "This is why we are special. To conceal our powers is not merely an affront to ourselves... it's sinful." He explains and he places the Qilin at the side of the pool, where it stays standing. 
Credence studies the newly reborn Qilin, bewitched. Gratified by Credence's reaction, Grindelwald looks back to the Qilin then stops, his smile faltering. A pale shadow, identical to the Qilin in his hands, appears briefly within the currents of the water, his eyes harden.
"Was there another?" Grindelwald asked. "Another?" Credence asked. "That night, was there another Qilin?" Grindelwald asked. In the shadows, Vogel turns and looks back to the pool. Grindelwald's eyes are pinched with fury. Credence, his face pale and slick, looks suddenly uneasy. "I don't think so..." Credence mutters.
With frightening speed, Grindelwald throws Credence back from the pool with a powerful burst of water and pins him to the wall. Grindelwald Apparates from the water, his fingers laced about Credence's throat and face. His eyes glitter with anger. "That's twice you failed me. Do you not understand the danger you put me in?!" Grindelwald asked him, angrily. Credence remains frozen like a terrified child under Grindelwald's grip.
"One last chance. Understood? Find it." Grindelwald said and he lets got of Credence and walks away.
"Here she is, love." (Y/n) said to Newt as she hands him the Qilin, as he was inside his suitcase. "Thank you, love." Newt said as he takes the Qilin and gently lowers the Qilin into his case. Minutes later, Newt comes back up and climbs out of the case then shuts the case. (Y/n) goes up behind him and wraps her arms around him and he places his hands on her arms.
"I hope this works." (Y/n) whispers to him. "It will. Dumbledore's plan usually works." Newt whispers back and (y/n) takes in a deep breath then slowly let's it out. "I know, I guess...I'm just worried about everyone...and you..." (y/n) said and Newt starts to turn around while she removes her arms off of him and stands up straight.
"We'll be fine, love." Newt said and he places a hand on her cheek and she nods at this. Newt gives a small smile to her then leans in to her and gives her a kiss.
Later, Newt, (y/n), Lally, Theseus, Jacob and Jason walk along the hallway of Hogwarts and towards an ornate door that emerges from the wall at the far end of the corridor. They go through the door and enter a sparsely appointed room. Jacob, looking utterly confused, follows Newt's and (y/n)'s gaze to the far end of the room, where six case--identical to Newt's--stand in a circle in front of a huge, ornate Bhutanese prayer wheel. Edmund stands by the cases.
"Hey, Newt, (y/n), what us this place?" Jacob asked them as Dumbledore walks in. "The room we require." New replied, softly. "I trust all of you have the tickets that Edmund gave you?" Dumbledore asked and everyone nods while Jacob holds his ticket up. "You'll need them to gain access to the ceremony." Dumbledore said then his eyes shift to Newt.
"What do you think, Newt? Can you tell which one is yours?" He asked Newt. "No." Newt said as he looks around at the cases. "Good. I'd be worried if you could." Dumbledore said. "It's amazing how identical they made the cases." (Y/n) said as she looks over the cases.
"I assume the Qilin's in one of these cases?" Lally asked. "Yes." replied Dumbledore. "Well, which one is it?" Lally asked. "Which one indeed." Dumbledore said, a bit of a smirk on his face. "Oh, it's like a three-card monte thing. Like a shell game thing. Like a short con." Jacob tried to explain but everyone looks at him, confused. "Never mind, it's a Muggle thing." Jacob mutters, waving his hand 
"Grindelwald will do anything within his power to get his hands on our rare friend. Therefore it's essential we keep whoever he dispatches on his behalf guessing so the Qilin gets to the ceremony safely. If by teatime, the Qilin--not to mention all of us--are still alive, we should consider our effort a success." Dumbledore said as he puts his hat on and wraps a scarf around his neck. "For the record, no one ever died playing three-card monte." Jacob pipes up and Dumbledore smiles. "An important distinction. All right, everyone choose a case and we'll be on our way. Mr Kowalski, you and I will proceed together first." Dumbledore said and Jacob seemed surprised by this. "Me? Okay..." he said.
Jacob steps forward, selects a case, then stops as Dumbledore clears his throat anf almost imperceptibly shakes his head. Jacob selects another and points, Dumbledore nods and turns away. Jacob picks up the case, nods, and glances around just as the Bhutanese prayer wheel glitters in front of Dumbledore.
He reaches out, touches it, and a beautiful glow fills the room. "I'm looking forward to you educating me a little further in the finer points of three-card monte." Dumbledore said as he looks over at Jacob, reaching his hand out to him. "My pleasure." Jacob said as he takes his hand and, together, they disappear into the wheel as it rapidly spins.
"Well, good luck, everybody." Edmund tells the others as Newt takes (y/n)'s hand and they walk forward just as (y/n) picks up a case with her free hand. "Good luck." Newt said to him and both he and (y/n) vanish. "And you too, Mr Edmund." Lally said and she walks forward, picks up another case and vanishes. "See you, Edmund." Theseus said and he walks forward and picks up another case before disappearing into the wheel too.
Jason and Edmund were the only ones left with two cases left. Jason goes to one of the cases and picks it up and walks up to his father. "Be careful, son." Edmund said as he and Jason share a look. "Same to you, father." Jason said and they smile as Edmund pats Jason's shoulder. "I'm proud of you." He said and Jason smiles then he walks up to the prayer and disappears. Edmund takes a deep breath, then picks up the last case. He walks towards the prayer wheel and vanishes.
"It is not lost on those of us in leadership that we are currently a world divided. Each day brings talk of another conspiracy. Each hour another dark whisper. These whispers have only increased in recent days...with the addition of a third candidate. There is only one way to leave absolutely no doubt...that a worthy candidate exists amongst the three you have been presented." Vogel said as he stands in front of a gilded cage set beneath an enormous set of steps of the Eyrie.
His speech was projected into all Magical Ministries around the world. Vogel enters the golden cage and emerges with something cradled in his arms. As he resumes his place and slowly reveal what he holds, there is a palpable gasp. 
A Qilin.
"As every schoolboy and girl knows...the Qilin is the purest of creatures in our wonderful magical world. It cannot be deceived. Let the Qilin unite us." Vogel said as he holds the Qilin before him and everyone cheers.
"Come." Dumbledore whispers to Jacob as they bob along a group of Santos supporters. Dumbledore's gaze had landed on a group of Dark Aurors trailing close behind and he pulls Jacob ducking and swerving into an alley. They Apparate out of a doorway behind their pursuers and give them the slip.
"Where to, next?" Jacob asked him. "This is where I leave you." Dumbledore said. "I'm sorry, you're what? Leaving me?" Jacob asked as Dumbledore takes off his scarf. "I have to meet someone else, Mr. Kowalski. Not to worry... you'll be perfectly safe." Dumbledore said and he cases off his scarf. As it flutters through the air, the scarf morphs into a curtain. Dumbledore turns back to Jacob.
"You don't have the Qilin. Feel free to drop the case at the first hint of trouble." Dumbledore said and he starts to walk away but stops and turns back to Jacob. "One other thing, if you don't mind me saying. You should stop doubting yourself. You have something most men go their entire lives without. Do you know what that is?" he asked and Jacob shakes his head. "A heart that is full. Only a truly brave man...could open himself up so honestly and completely, as you do." Dumbledore said and, with that, he tips his hat and is gone.
Newt and (y/n) move quickly, trying their best to remain inconspicuous. Then Newt stops, sensing something, and turns but nothing. "Newt?" (Y/n) whispers while Newt looks around then shakes his head. "Let's go." He whispers back to her and they walk on.
Theseus moves warily forward, case held tightly. Jason looks around as he walks through the village and glances around himself every now and then, holding the case. Lally moves quickly when she noticed some Aurors ahead of her. She turns into an alley and disappears from view. 
Theseus moves warily through a narrow passage then spots two Aurors and draws his wand. Lally moves quickly, glancing over her shoulder when she comes together with Theseus at the junction of their respective streets. Both whirl, raise their wands then recognize each other. Then, as one, their gazes shift. Around them, everywhere, are dark Aurors.
Lally and Theseus deflect, parry and duel the Aurors from all sides, retreating up the steps as they fire a flurry of counter spells and charms. Lally Stuns three Dark Aurors, Theseus Stuns half a dozen more. Lally levitate a dozen crystal balls and sends them cascading toward the Aurors as Theseus Stuns a Dark Auror on a balcony above them.
Turning, Lally incapacitates another by wrapping him in fabric before sending an Auror shooting into a wall and imprisoning him there as if stuck in a portrait. Aurors are left sprawled all over the street before them. 
Their victory is short-lived, though, as two wands appear, drawn at the back of their necks. "Cases, please." Helmut said as he and two other Aurors stand behind them.
Jason walks along an alley when an Auror appears in front of him. Jason stops and the Auror starts to walk towards him. He draws his wand then the two began to duel. The Auror waves his wand and sends a few spells but Jason is quick as he blocks them then sends a couple of spell, one after the other, and knocks the Auror back.
"Well done, son." A voice said behind Jason, which made him freeze. He slowly turns and sees Isabella standing behind him. "Thought I will say it is very irresponsible of your father letting you out here, all on your own." She says and Jason narrows his eyes at her. "I can take care of myself." Jason said, firmly.
"Well...let’s put that to the test, then." Isabella said then she waves her wand and sends a spell at him. But Jason was quick as he blocks it. The two duel as she kept firing spell after spell at Jason while he blocks them. Then as quick as a flash, Jason waves his wand and sends a spell at Isabella, which catches her off guard as she stumbled back a bit.
She looks at her son, surprised, then she gets determination and fires some more spells at him and Jason either blocks or dodges them. Finally, Jason was able to get the upper hand as Isabella was getting a bit cocky with her spellcasting.
Jason fires a strong spell and it hits Isabella, sending her back a few feet and land on the ground. Jason smiles to himself but then he felt two wands pointed at the back of his neck. "Drop the case." A voice said.
Newt and (y/n) rounds a corner, and in the distance they see two Aurors emerge ahead. Just beyond, they spot someone else. "Hey, fellas." Jacob shouts and the Aurors turn. Jacob sends both spinning with a swing of his case before darting out of sight. The Aurors recover and give chase.
Jacob stumbles around a corner and races up some steep, narrow steps. Moments later, his pursuers appear around the corner, stop and stare upward. Empty...except for Jacob's case.
Helmut and his men take Lally's and Theseus's cases and set them down. A Dark Auror takes aim until Helmut rises his hand. "Wait. Open them, make sure it's in there. Idiots." Helmut said while the Auror trapped in the wall bangs with his fists to be let out. With a sigh, Helmut raises his wand and releases him, sending him sprawling to the ground with a thud. Lally and Theses glance at the cases.
One of Isabella's men grabs Jason's case and sets it down. "Open it." Isabella ordered after she woke up and walks over to the Aurors. Jason watches the case, his heart beating hard against his chest and he felt like he could throw up.
One of Jacob's pursuers tentatively approaches the abandoned case. He opens it to reveal...polish pastries. The Auror grabs a paczki and inspects it.
As Lally and Theseus look on, two of Helmut's Dark Aurors kneel beside the case and open it, revealing books and the Golden Snitch.
One of Isabella's men opens the case to see it was full of books. Isabella looks inside of it and her brow furrows in confusion while Jason was, silently, relieved. "What the bloody hell?" Isabella mutters.
As the Golden Snitch buzzes upward, Helmut watches it rise past the surrounding rooftops when the books erupt out of Lally's case and engulf the Dark Aurors, mummified them in a windstorm of paper.
The same thing happens with Jason case and Isabella screams as her and her men are engulfed in the windstorm of paper. "Blimey!" Jason mutters with a laugh and he begins to make a run for it while they were distracted.
Jacob's case erupts with thousands of pastries cascading in a wave that sweeps the Dark Aurors down the steep steps away.
The Monster Books of Monsters ​​​​attacks as Bludgers fly out of Theseus's case and catapult into the Dark Aurors in the Alley and atop the rooftops high above. Helmut furiously straps a piece of paper from his face only to discover, in the chaos, Lally and Theseus have escaped.
Dumbledore moves swiftly, glancing to a nearby rooftop as Bludgers rain down upon the Aurors and send them tumbling. A Snitch buzzes down toward him, and he catches it midair and pockets it. Suddenly, in lockstep, from an alleyway, a figure joins him. "How long does he have?" Aberforth asked Dumbledore and they continue on.
Jacob, case-less now, walks down a narrow alley. He feeds onto a street and passes a green-robed figure when another figure sweeps in and grabs him firmly by the hand, pulling him into a side street and away from the main street.
"You're in danger. You need to leave." Queenie tells him. "Well..." Jacob said but she puts a finger over his lips. "I can't go, okay? I can't come home. It's too late for me, all right? Some mistakes, they're just too big." she said and Jacob takes her hand away. "Can you listen to me?" He asked.
"There's no time! I was followed. I gave 'em the slip, but it won't be long before they find me. They're gonna find us." Queenie pleads, her voice breaking. "I don't care. All I got is us. I make no sense without us." Jacob tells her. "Jacob, what? Come on...I don't love you anymore. Just get outta here." Queenie said, trying to sound angry, but Jacob smiles.
"You're the worst liar in the world, Queenie Goldstein." He said then church bells peal softly. "You hear that? That's a sign." Jacob said and Queenie glares at him but he stares at her. Then he enfold Queenie's hand in his and pulls her close. "Come here, come here. Close your eyes. Please close your eyes." he said and she does just that. "You know what Dumbledore said to me?" he asked her and she shakes her head. "No." She said, her voice full of tears. "He said that I got a full heart. He's wrong. I'm always gonna have room in there for you." He said and she opens her eyes.
"Yeah?" she asked. "Yeah. You know it. Look at me. Queenie Goldstein..." Jacob said and she looks over at him, a tear trickling down her cheek. Then they both look up to see figures surrounding them.
Newt and (y/n) watch as Santos supporters cross a bridge that rises into the sky; they disappear through a portal partway across. (Y/n) grips the case tighter then squeezes Newt's hand with her other hand and he squeezes it back as they move forward.
From this vantage, the mountain looms mightily, its peak draped in thick clouds. The couple make their way onto the bridge, toward the portal. Stepping through it, they disappear with a whoosh.
Newt and (y/n) stride, purposely, in the direction of the steps. Directly ahead, a solitary figure, Fischer, stands unmoving. She turns, eyes focused on Newt and (y/n). "Mr. Scamander. Miss (l/n). We've never been properly introduced. Henrietta Fischer...Herr Vogel's attache." she introduced. "Yes...hello." Newt said and Fischer nods to the clouds overhead. 
"I can take you two up. There's a private entrance for members of the High Council. If you just follow me." she said but neither Newt or (y/n) move, eulyeing her skeptically. "I'm sorry, why would you do that? Take us up?" (y/n) asked her, eyeing her. "Isn't it obvious?" Fischer asked. "No, frankly, it's not." Newt said and then Fischer walks closer to them.
"Dumbledore sent me." She whispers but the two don't move. "I know what you have in that case, Mr. Scamander and Miss (l/n)." She said as her eyes narrow.
Then a throng if exuberant Santos, Liu, and Grindelwald supporters spill into view. Quick as a snake, Fischer hand snatches (y/n)'s where she grips the handle. They lock eyes and (y/n) makes to wrest the case free while the crowd converges. They continue to wrestle over control of the case, Newt helps, as they born down the middle of the square, surrounded by happy faces and cheering voices 
Then two bolts of fire strikes Newt and (y/n) behind their ears and they fall. Two men appear, standing within the crowd, looking down at the couple, their wands smoking. Fischer smiles before turning away, carrying the case with her.
Theseus paces nervously as Lally and Jason stands by. The bridge us nearly deserted now. A horn, like a clarion call, rises over the city. "He should be here any minute." Lally said just as Kama and a group of Dark Aurors appear.
The Dark Aurors raise their wands as Kama moves through the Aurors. Then Kama drops and drives his wand into the earth, releasing a pulse of magic that stuns the Aurors, concussing them instantly. "What kept you?" Theseus asked him as the four of them head onto the bridge and disappear.

An accurate list of the best movies I've ever seen
This list also includes reasons that are all too objective and nonsensical. Avoid asking too many questions. And share what you think in the comments!
Tumblr media
Hercules
Hercules is probably my favourite Disney movie. And I also think that's where my interest in Greek mythology started. Hades is my favorite villain from this company and he's such a mood.
Tumblr media
The Prince of Egypt
Oh dear you don't know how much I love this movie. I know every song by heart and was lucky enough to sing them with my choir. I'm a big fan of animation and despite how old is this movie, I think it remains one of the best ever produced. I cried more times over this movie than over all the others on this list combined.
Tumblr media
Friends & Family
I only discovered this film this year but it quickly became one of my favorites. I have never laughed for so many consecutive minutes at a movie. I approached it because it's unusual to see a gay mob-themed movie, but I immediately fell in love with all the characters and the final scene remains one of the most comic I have ever seen.
Tumblr media
Treasure Planet
I have a soft spot for animated films about great adventures and self-discovery. Jim has been my only animated crush for years, and his story has always resonated with something inside of me (maybe the desire for adventure and his recklessness, idk). Plus, of course, "'I'm Still Here" is one of the most beautiful soundtracks ever created.
Tumblr media
Howl's Moving Castle
One of the first films I saw by Studio Ghibli and my absolute favourite. The love stories created by this Studio are always wonderful, and this one is no different. Plus I always saw myself in Sophie (especially about the crush on Howl) and, well, there's Calcifer, what more do you want?
Tumblr media
Les Choristes
Another thing I love: movies about music. It may be that I've been playing an instrument for years and singing in choirs, but I've always cried watching kids rediscover a new side of themselves through music and songs. And these songs are composition's masterpieces. I still remember them all by heart even though French isn't my native language.
Tumblr media
A Christmas Carol
I'm slightly obsessed with this story, with Charles Dickens and with Christmas. I was born on Christmas Eve so you can imagine how close this theme is to my heart. I have seen several versions of this story though, and for some reason, this one remains my favourite. It may be that it's different from other more colourful versions and really shows the darkness behind the original story, idk.
Tumblr media
How to Train Your Dragon
I literally grew up with this saga: I was 8 years old at the first film, 12 at the second and 17 at the third. I watched Hiccup grow up with me as a friend and Toothless as a fellow adventurer. I'll forever be grateful to Dreamworks for creating the best-animated saga that cinema has ever seen.
Tumblr media
The Three Musketeers
This movie is so random that it's perfect. I watched it again recently (after like 8 years) and realized that maybe my daddy issues come from this movie: Luke Evans, Orlando Bloom and the freaking Mads Mikkelsen together, seriously? I'm not surprised it was one of my favourite movies growing up.
Tumblr media
A Monster in Paris
The love I have for this film is enormous. I could never get over the beauty of the songs in it. The characters are so well written and Francœur will always be in my top animated characters. It's too amazing to be real.
Tumblr media
Rise of the Guardians
I could talk for hours about this film and have not even touched the tip of the iceberg. I have an insane obsession with all the characters, starting with and especially Jack, my top animated crush for years. It's all so perfect that I don't see how people never nominate it when it comes to top animated movies.
Tumblr media
The Hobbit
Again, I have serious problems with films about fantasy adventures. I have always preferred The Hobbit saga to its sequel because the story has always fascinated me more. And the main character especially: for me Bilbo >>>> Frodo. And then there's Thorin and Luke Evans. You know, daddy issues.
Tumblr media
Mune: Guardian of the Moon
Another French animated movie, another obsession, another adventure, another animated character in my top. This is an example of how to do good animation. There isn't a colour out of place. The settings are authentic, the characters are original, and the adventure they make gets me every time.
Tumblr media
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
I'm maybe a Muggle, but I prefer Fantastic Beasts to the Harry Potter saga. That's not to say it's better, mind you, but it reflects me more. We all know how we Hufflepuffs (and Ravenclaws) have no real representation in the HP movies, so to be able to have at least one prequel saga starring a Hufflepuff (in which I also find myself far too much) as the protagonist is wonderful. And I have an unhealthy urge to become a magizoologist.
Tumblr media
The Greatest Showman
It's the movie I have watched the most of these. I know every song by heart and every line too. It always manages to be a roller coaster of emotions. And it has Hugh Jackman in it.
Tumblr media
The Boy Foretold By The Stars
I'm a big supporter of the Philippine's film company. This is one movie is gentle, funny, and not based on the usual drama between Christianity and LGBT+ people (which is what I thought when reading the plot at first). Moreover, another underrated thing, the Philippines' music company here has thrown in masterpiece after masterpiece of songs, perfect for this movie.
Tumblr media
Bros
This is my top comfort film in the last year. It's like watching a Hallmark movie but hotter, much more sincere and gay. Very gay. And the relationship between the two main characters is so cute and sweet. And funny.
Tumblr media
Top Gun: Maverick
I love this saga but especially love this particular chapter. I love Maverick and his relationship with Rooster, and all the other characters are so well-written. And don't get me started on the story... I LOVE it. There isn't much else to say except that Cruise is a great actor (and a terrible person).
Tumblr media
Glass Onion - Knives Out
I love my silly little gay detective. And I have a little passion for movies and mystery series. I found this saga's chapter more compelling than the first one, and the characters gripped me more. Also I fell in love with the setting. Oh and then there are Daniel Craig and Hugh Grant.

imma be 100% transparent and say that supporting harry potter is not only putting a TERF on a pedestal, it's also supporting a bunch of blatant racism that is in her books

My latest newsletter is about Hollywood constantly going back to the same heroes (Luke Skywalker, Captain Kirk) instead of expanding their universes. To get more perspective, I talked to the wonderful @okbjgm about creating new heroes in old universes.
