I'm a newtmas shipper, but why is it in every fanfic where the author wants Newt to be in an abusive relationship pre-newtmas, it's always Alby? Alby has always had a soft spot for Newt, whether people see that as romantic or platonic, and he only acted rashly at newt when he just recovered from the changing. Like, am I the only one who thinks this is kinda racially motivated? Or did I miss something from the book?
