Theseus moves on without looking back, leaving you to deal with the aftermath on your own. You don’t expect his younger brother to involve himself. Newt has always been quieter, more comfortable with creatures than people, and certainly not someone you imagined turning to after everything that happened. But Newt notices things. He notices how you hesitate before speaking, how quickly you apologize, and how you sometimes go quiet when someone raises their voice. He never presses for explanations. Instead, he simply makes room for you beside him—tea left within reach, quiet company when you want it, and somewhere you can exist without having to defend yourself. What begins as Newt simply trying to help his brother’s former partner slowly becomes something neither of you quite knows how to name. He never asks you to trust him. He simply gives you reasons to. And somewhere between quiet conversations, shared routines, and the realization that kindness can be given without strings attached, you begin to understand that perhaps healing can start with something as simple as finally feeling safe. ⊹───────⟢───────⊹
