He’s spent years studying them, caring for them, and learning to understand even the strangest of their habits. So when he discovers a rare creature that immediately becomes attached to you, he isn’t particularly surprised. What does surprise him is the creature’s immediate and rather intense dislike of him. It follows you everywhere, curls up beside you whenever it gets the chance, and seems to have developed a particular talent for inserting itself between you and Newt. Every attempt he makes to approach is met with suspicious looks, defensive noises, and the unmistakable impression that he’s not welcome anywhere near you. And, rather inexplicably, Newt begins to find this irritating. Perhaps it’s because the creature constantly steals your attention. Perhaps it’s because it insists on sitting far too close to you. Or perhaps it’s because every bit of affection you give it is affection Newt can’t help but quietly wish were meant for him. But Newt isn’t jealous. Absolutely not. He’s simply conducting observations. Very important observations. And if those observations happen to involve keeping an unusually close eye on how much time you spend cuddling a creature that hates him… well, that’s hardly his fault. ⊹───────⟢───────⊹
