WHO: Newt Scamander
WHERE: In the forest, the village, and at where Graves and Credence live.
WHEN: July 8 and onward.
OPEN TO: All with closed starters for Graves and Credence.
WARNINGS: None yet. Will update if necessary.





( open. ) the forest + the village.

It took something of an adventure, bringing Itiiti back to Moana in the village, to finally have Newt coming back willingly. He has considered the previous offer of a roof over his head by Percival after the hailstorm, and came to the conclusion that they will have far better chances of surviving whatever else this place might force on them together. No man is an island, after all.

Besides, he's far easier to find if he's in one place that isn't a constantly shifting forest, yes? He can stop by and see how Wanda is doing with the chicks, perhaps. Or maybe he'll even run into Finnick and Annie again. He wouldn't mind it so much. East should be healing well enough, but she might could do with a proper check-in.

Now that he's arrived, he can see the damage that is still being repaired from the earthquake. He'd been lucky. They all had, it seemed. Perhaps it was another thing he could offer a hand with. He should probably look into finding a place to put his things before getting too involved. Never mind that he looks rather ridiculous with his stoat, Devlin, perched on one shoulder to investigate, and his pack still strapped to his back.


( closed. ) graves.

Newt only has the pack on his back with some nuts and berries gathered, a couple of fish he caught earlier in the morning, and the pack on his back when he shows up on Graves' doorstep again. He didn't come to the decision to come here lightly. In fact, he'd quite ignored the insisting after the hail storm where he'd ended up with a mild injury. It was nothing, truly, just a cut and a bruise. He's gotten far worse from Dougal in the past.

But then the earthquake had happened, Credence had disappeared for a couple of days, and ---well, Newt could hardly justify refusing the other man's offer. Strength in numbers, and all. It's with that knowledge that he arrives on the doorstep to the house, pack strapped to his back, Devlin perched on a shoulder, and knocks.

While he has every intention of taking Percival up on his prior offer, they should talk first. Much has happened since they both arrived, but they've had very little chance to talk properly.

( closed. ) credence.

Newt comes to the door where Credence stays in the house, and knocks lightly on the door. It still feels quite odd and almost imposing to be here. He's never been very comfortable any social sphere, and much prefers to keep to himself. Or keep to his creatures. This place, it seems, has elected to force him out of his usual comfort zone.

While he may not like it, he is nothing if not adaptable.

Cautiously, he peeks in a little, not wanting to intrude. "Hello, Credence. Might I come in?"

There is a chicken. There are actually number of them around the village, housed at both Mr Cougar and Jensen's and at the Inn. The Inn also has a rooster, and Kate daily checks on his continued existence because the village is full of people who are not used to crowing of a rooster and regard him as a nuisance.

But this chicken, a grey and fluffy girl, is not either of those places. No, she's strutting down the road as proud as anything. And behind her is Kate.

The fence around the chicken coop at the back of the Inn had held during the initial earthquake, but the aftershocks? No, that had led to some trouble. Trouble, quick repair, and one missing chicken by the name of Frances. Beyond any affection Kate feels for her, the village's food situation is still such that she'd had to lose even one layer and potential breeder. The trouble is, she can't spook Frances too much, or she'll just take off again. But, seeing the bird make her way down towards the man approaching, Kate waves at him and points at the chicken hopefully.

Please help her catch her bird, Mister.
