Ah. Er, hello? Oh, uhm. This is rather weird...right! T-This is Newt Scamander. Well, actually, this is a pre recorded message for Newt Scamander. I'm quite busy, so I may have missed you. Do please leave a message and I'll get back to you. Apologies.

I wonder if he would think otherwise. [A soft laugh.

He lets the other usher him into the living room and onto the couch. It's not a particularly big couch. It comfortably fits two, but it would probably struggle to fit a third participant. Newt haphazardly kicks off his shoes before tucking his knees under his chin. His socks are mismatched and worn and his pants definitely are just a little too short for his legs.]

Thank you. You always seem to take care of me whenever this happens.

It's only been twice. [Said with that dismissive wave Jean-Paul has perfected.]

Just try not to do it again, okay? I am only one man, and not terribly domestic, so I'll get sick of making all you people soup. [He smiles.] I'm kidding.

You're gonna be okay.

[newtralize]

I imagine it wouldn't be the last though. [The other has only ever been kind to him.]

I don't try. I assure you. The first time had been more than enough. [And he can't say he wants to ever experience the first time again. He still struggled quite a bit with coming to terms with it. It still affects him at times, but he tries not to let it.] I'll have to return the favor.

[He smiles softly.] It wasn't as bad. [Dying was far less painful and he's more prepared to wait out the week being a muggle. The hardest part was really the memory loss of his brother. That part has been distressing.] I feel better making amends if anything. It's a relief.

[speed_of_snark]

Mm, don't push it.

[He snorts.] Deal. The next time I get into shit, you bring ME tea.

I suppose some good has come of it, then. Which is odd to say. Is there anything that would help further?

[newtralize]

[He laughs a little.]

I hope it won't happen. [Not because he doesn't mind. He'd bring the other anything he ask. That's what friends do right?] I don't want you to die, after all.

Help? No, I don't think there's much else that can be done in general. I just have to wait it out, I suppose. I'm alright, really. [He could be better, but that could be said about all of them.]
