An owl lands next to Newt, a red envelope in its beak. The owl drops the envelope when it begins to burn, suddenly bursting into flames, starting to scream, ‘NEWT, I MISS YOU DEARLY, WE NEED TO MEET UP! PLEASE, LITTLE BROTHER, I NEED YOU, NEED YOU SO MUCH! I WANT YOU TO HUG ME! I LOVE YOU!’

… Right.  Do any of you happen to work in the Ministry?  The Auror department, perhaps?  I think my brother may have had a bit too much to drink tonight.  It would be much appreciated if someone could check up on him.  

I think I’ll just... floo over to his flat, see if he’s home.

Did you know Thesus loves someone?

No but I also do not need to. His life is is life and he deserves privacy.

Dear Theseus,

Thank you for your letter. You’ve always been so good to write to me regularly even when you’re busy. If you are able, please inquire about your brother. I’m afraid I haven’t heard from him in a while and I do worry. Especially working with those dragons. I’ve heard that he’s done very well with the dragon program, but they are so much bigger than the hippogriffs he’s used to. A stray claw here at home will give you a nasty scar, but a mistake with dragons will dismember or worse. 

I hope you’re doing well and that the woolen socks I’ve enclosed reach you. The warming spell should help against the chill. Can’t have you falling ill when there is still work to be done. You never did slow down even as a boy. I know you are very well respected, but remember to smile once in a while. With the extreme cold out there your face will freeze permanently in that serious look. 

Things here are quiet. I’ll be so pleased to have the two of you home after all of this is over. The old house just isn’t the same without you.

All my love,

Mum

Mister Scamander I was just thinking , well you don't seem to be much of a drinker , but I could be wrong. Do you drink alcohol? What kind of drunk person are you?

I’m not much a drinker no, and then only very occasionally.  I’m afraid it might come as a bit of a disappointment for me to tell you that I am quite boring and quiet when intoxicated.

… not one word, @asktheseusscamander, brother dearest.

Hello, little brother, I haven’t heard from you for a long time now—and mother has neither. As you are back in England she asked for you to join us for dinner if you can make time. How does that sound? I also request your presence at the Ministry as we need your testimony on the incident that happened in New York. I expect you to show up on Monday at 9 a.m. in my office. – Best regards, Theseus

Dearest Theseus,

I will of course be attending dinner tomorrow evening.  It is your birthday, after all.  You’re getting very old, brother.  Shouldn’t you be considering retirement soon?

I’ve owled mother to let her know I’ll be by, so you needn’t bother.  I’ll also try to arrive before you, to make sure the hippogriffs are out of their pens.  I’m sure you’ve missed them and would like to say hello.  Artemis in particular, I would wager.

As you know I’m currently very busy with the editing of my book and there’s no guarantee I can make that appointment on Monday- my time in the Ministry is very sporadic at the moment.  And of course what with you being such an important Auror and all it would simply be rude of me to show up any other time.  

Nothing much of interest happened in New York in any case, so I’m not sure why it would matter.  

I look forward to seeing you tomorrow.  I’ve had a cane ordered as your present.

Your little brother,

Newt S.

( @asktheseusscamander is celebrating Theseus’ birthday tomorrow, January 14th!  For anyone who’s interested, wander on over and show our favorite British Auror a little birthday cheer. )

Don't you want to know if your friend is in love with someone?

I know Theseus well enough to know that he is very private and does not want such information shared. If he wanted me to know he would have told me.

How do you feel about thesus

I care a lot about Theseus. He is my closest friend and I think the world of him.

*throws baby niffler at graves* he's yours now, good luck.

Oh....

@asktheseusscamander? Any idea how I could get this to @asknewt?
