Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them my beloved <3

You deserved so much better. The only good film in the franchise (in MY OPINION) 😭😭😭

[fbconfessions]

I was expecting to see more of the muggle-wizard relations (political) in Fantastic Beasts but obviously that wasn't the case. I also though Henry sr and Langdon Shaw, and Modesty and Second Salamers were going to have big roles in the later movies, but that also wasn't the case. It was really disappointing lol. Thanks!

Seeing Lackadaisy to see what the hype is all about

And here comes the gangster speakeasy owning Credence (and Barebone Siblings) AU that no one wanted!

Aurelius being part of a wizard gangster era of the 1920s who thinks the prohibition is idiotic.

Credence owning a Speakeasy (and hopes his adopted mother is rolling in her grave more. Kind of an AU where he isn’t an Obscurial but still a witch)

The Barebone siblings turning the Second Salem Church into a front for a speakeasy after Mary Lou’s ‘unfortunate death’ (I want her to really roll in her grave so much okay?)

Aurelius well known by the magical community while it is a seen as a codename for the non-magic that deal with him for alcohol at their speakeasys. 

His is basically a: don’t snitch. Type of speakeasy. Those that attempt or threaten to are never heard from again. Aurors cannot come in and arrest anyone without a warrant, besides, most Aurors drink here while off duty. It is a: everyone is welcome, but screw around and get taught one hell of a lesson.

He takes no sides in this AU. He isn’t an acolyte or works with ‘the bad’ nor does he work with ‘the good’. He’s neutral and just tends to his business. He will later choose Dumbledore’s side only because of Newt and his dearest friend Tina.

To no-maj, he is probably a gangster of sorts along with his siblings. To the magical world he is just Aurelius or Credence, speakeasy owner that likes his solitude.

The Second Salem Church was more or less converted as well to a place where in the day, it’s a soap place and shelter for all ages that need some food or clothing. By night when everything is closed up, it’s a speakeasy. At times it is for magical kind, other times it is for non-magic only. If magic folk want to come in during non-magic times they must not show their magic unless it’s in very dire circumstances (ex. ambush from Aurors without cause or a warrant).

The doors to the speakeasy is hidden in the day, and anyone wanting to check out the doors will find that it is just a place for cleaning supplies.

When they are out getting their alcohol, Modesty (18*) is the driver that knows how to fix or steal vehicles when in need, Chastity (25) is more of the negotiator followed by shooter when they are being cheated or set up, Credence (22, alias: Aurelius) is the other shooter either with magic or a gun, and he rarely gives people a second chance to do it again and he isn’t exactly the talker, just the owner and has only a kindness to his siblings, father and uncle, and some friends.

He sometimes sells Queenie and Jacob’s pastries and gives them a percentage, not saying who makes the pastries to keep them out of trouble. He does often say how much they love them though.

*18 was the legal age to drink prior to the 1970s in New York. I don’t condone it, but just saying it was before people yell at me ;_;

Am I the only one who wonders what happens with Modesty after the first Fantastic beasts movie? I mean, she is eight years old and lost all her adoptive family in one night, poor girl.

[newt-and-salamander]

It always amuses me that the actress who portrayed Modesty is actually called Faith in real life because it fits so perfectly into the Barebone name scheme.

What doesn't amuse me is that she is now 17 years old.

[lifewouldbebetteronmars]

Remember when we all thought Modesty was the Obscurus?

Good times, good times
