Hi my name is Karina and I have an obsession. My obsession consists of movie, legos, books and Kpop merch that I have too much and not enough shelves for.
Request from Anon: Could you do a Newt x Reader where Newt goes with the reader to the dentist and he’s really freaked out because wizards don’t have dentists?
Hey I wrote this in one night, so have some really good grammar
Warnings: Slight anxiety?? Not really
“You’re going where?!” A muffled voice calls through the lid of a charmed and battered leather case. You can hear his quick footfall climb the ladder as you grab your keys from the bowl by the door. The lid flips open suddenly with a loud smack, and out pops an out of breath Newt.
“I told you this just the other day. I’m going to the dentist.” You said with a sigh. You had told your magic wizard roommate this already, but he must have been off with the fairies. More so with the creatures. He was always down there, busying himself with his books or his creatures. Books about creatures. He was always busy. The look on his face spelled worry, and you weren’t sure why.
“Newt, you okay? I’m going to the dentist, not my death bed.” You snickered, but Newts look of worry still puzzled you.
“T-the dentist? I’m not entirely sure where you’re going, but it sounds dreadfully dangerous. I’m coming with you. F-for protection reasons.” At Newt’s speech, you burst into a spell of laughter, and he looked at you with utter perplexion.
“T-he d-dentist? Dangerous? Scamander, you got me good!” You laughed even more, but his look remained one of complete seriousness. Then it struck you that he might be serious. With all his wizarding quirks, it could be quite possible.
“Wait are you serious?” You questioned.
“Deathly so! Would you please explain where you’re going?” You giggled and began to explain.
“Well, it’s kind of hard to explain, but you go to the dentist to get your teeth checked. It’s kind of like going to the doctors for a health check-up, only it’s for your mouth. You get a cleaning too, amongst other things. Are you telling me wizards don’t have dentists?” He shook his head at you, his look still worried, but now slightly filled with a scientist’s curiosity. You knew that look all too well.
“You can come with if you want. Might be good for you, since you’re always cooped up in that case of yours.” You said putting on your coat. He turned and said a quick, ‘I’ll be right back’, before coming back fully dressed, with his signature peacock blue coat, and Hufflepuff scarf.

The dentist’s office wasn’t too far away from your apartment, so you could walk. Once you arrived, Newt seemed to come a little closer to you, before grabbing your upper arm. His worried look returned.
“Are you sure it’s safe? I-I’m not getting a very good feeling from this place.” You turned to him, and he removed his grip on your arm. You placed both hands on the sides of his shoulders.
“Newt Scamander, I’m going to be fine. We’re both going to be fine. This is new for you, I know, but don’t worry. Okay?” He nodded, and the two of you entered the building.
It very strong mix of smells hit you like train, and you can only imagine how Newt felt. It was an intimidating scent of Anaesthesia, rubber, a lot of disinfectant and what you think to be mint fluoride. The walls were a neutral blue with white trim that looked impossibly clean. Newt looked quite anxious, and he seemed to slouch, almost as if he was hiding behind you. You squeeze his arm in reassurance, as you get to the front desk to say you have an appointment. The secretary nodded, and told you to take a seat. You lead Newt to the seats with you.
He had become quite fidgety since the two of you sat down, and stole quick glances at you every so often, almost as if he was checking to see if you were okay. He still had an air of curiosity about him though, as he looked around at his new surroundings.
“Newt?” You asked quietly, and he jumped slightly.
“I’m alright.” He said quickly, as if reading your mind. Silence followed, until you were called in by your dentist. You got up, and Newt’s eyes were almost grabbing onto you. You gave him a look of ‘Don’t worry’, before disappearing into the office.
--
The time Newt spent waiting for you to come back, felt like eternity. He was becoming increasingly worried, and wanted nothing more for you to come back and go home back to the apartment. You suddenly exited from the office, and Newt stood up a little too quickly. You looked at him and snickered slightly, before walking up to him, and pulling him into a hug.
“Come on. Let’s go home, I think you’ve had enough of an adventure today.” You said laughing, and linked your arm with his. He smiled, and the two of you headed back to your apartment.
