《Desire [Newt Scamander]》Strudel
Advertisement
{if it's okay with you I'm going to change some things they're all roughly still apart of the plot but I want Evelyn and Newts relationship to move on further so changing how some things happen will help. It'll all still fit to the plot of the story overall but I just want to make sure you're all okay with that :)}
{Not edited because it's damn late}
The four apparate to Brownstone street, Tina and Newt try their best to keep Jacob steady either side, whilst Newt still has his other hand intertwined with Evelyns.
"Okay before we go in, I'm not supposed to have men on the premises-" Tina stops what she's saying and looks at Evelyn.
"I thought you left" but before Evelyn can respond Newt interrupts.
"I grabbed her as we disapparated, wasn't going to leave her behind she has my case." Newt then acknowledges he's still holding onto Evelyn and pulls his hand away a slight blush appearing on his face as he rubs the back of his neck nervously.
"Also if you can't have men on the premises, Mr Kowalski and I can easily seek other accomadation-"
Tina gives him a look that reads nice try.
"Oh no, you don't." she says and leads them to her apartment.
The four tiptoe up the stairs and just when they reach the first landing Mrs Esposito the landlady calls out "Tina, is that you?" Jacob holds onto Newt to steady himself as they all stop trying to be as quiet as possible.
"Yes Mrs Esposito" Tina nervously calls back.
"You alone?" Mrs Esposito calls back.
"I'm always alone Mrs Esposito" Tina calls back.
They then proceed to quietly make their way to the door Tina's apartment.
The Goldstein resident is rather small but is alive with magic.
Just outside the fire, clothes hang from floating sticks, various magazines and newspapers with moving images are scattered about the place and then at the end of the room is a a beautiful blonde haired lady; Tina's sister.
She's wearing a silk slip that is the sort of item you'd find under clothes. Jacob is shocked by her beauty as he stands looking at her as though in a trance of some sort.
Newt barely notices her as he looks out the window, desperate to leave as soon as he can.
Evelyn looks about the apartment warmth flows through her as she soaks in the home like feel it holds.

"Teenie you brought friends home?" Tina's sister asks .
"This is my sister Queenie, you want to put something on?"
Queenie doesn't seem concerned in the slightest over the fact that she has next to nothing on.
"Oh, Sure" She takes a hold of wand and uses her wand to grab her dress and then magically slip into it.
Jacob looks at her wide eyed and mouth so far open that he could possibly start drooling at any minute.
Evelyn smiles at Queenie already aware of who she is from work.
"so who are your friends?" Queenie asks smiling back at Evelyn.
"That's Mr Scamander." She gestures towards Newt as she picks up a pile of magzines and places them neatly on a shelf.
"He's commited a serious infraction of the national statute of secrecy-"
Queenie interrupts "So he's a criminal" she looks both impressed and intrigued that it makes Evelyn almost want to stand closer to Newt.
"Uh-huh and this is Mr Kowalski he's a No-Maj-"
The look from Queenies face turns to worry as she looks at her sister concerned "A No-Maj? Teen what are you up to?"
"He's sick, it's a long story" Tina replies not wanting to tell the story as she feel exhausted from being apart of it.
Before anyone can ask anymore questions Jacob staggers and falls back onto the sofa sweat visibly coming from is face.
Queenie runs over to him and begins to read his mind.
"He hasn't eaten all day -and aww that's rough he didn't get the loan he wanted to open his bakery- you bake honey? I love to cook" Jacob nods smiling up at her and even this intrigues Newt.
"You're Legilimens?" he asks fascinated.
"Uh-huh yeah. Although i do have trouble with your kind" she gestures to Newt and Evelyn.
"it's the accents i think."
Newt looks back out the window becoming impatient again to go out looking for his lost creatures.
Evelyn stands next to him as Queenie talks to Jacob and Tina whilst preparing food with her wand.
"You'll get to go out there soon" Evelyn reassures him, he looks at her surprised to hear a voice.
"Thank you-misunderstood creatures they are, it worries me that they're not safe" Newt replies walking towards the door putting his hand on the doorknob he beckons for Evelyn with his hand but just as he goes to open it-
"Hey Mr Scamander, you prefer pie of strudel?" Queenie asks and he looks up to find them all looking at him.

"I really don't have a preference" Newt who is embarrassed removes his hand from doorknob.
Tina glares at him then turns back to laying the table with her wand. "What about you Eve?" Queenie asks using Evelyn's nickname.
"Uh-Strudel thank you." She looks at Newt smiling sympathetically before walking over to the table taking a seat next to Jacob.
"You prefer strudel don't you honey?" Queenie smiles at Jacob to which he smiles back both amazed and excited as he tucks a napkin into his collar.
With a swish of her wand Queenie creates a mixture of raisins, apples and pastry bale on the spot before floating it down in front on the table, a light show of sugar sprinkles on the top.
"Well sit down Mr Scamander we're not going to poison you." Tina gestures to the seat at the end of table near Evelyn.
Newt who is still hovering by the door, much to his dismay comes over and takes his seat.
Half an hour later they're all still sitting at the table Queenie talks with Jacob, whilst the other three are looking rather bored.
The clasp of Newt's case occasionally flips open to which he shuts it keeping his hand on his suitcase at all times. Jacob looks much better but still shows traces of being unwell.
"We're Orphans. Ma and Pa died of Dragon pox when we were kids" Queenie says out of nowhere which means she was reading Jacob's mind.
"Could you stop reading my mind for a second please" Jacob polietly asks before continuing.
"Don't get me wrong i love it" Jacob reassures to which Queenie giggles delightedly.
The two gaze into each others eyes, Evelyn looks down at her feet and Newt is awkwardly rubbing the back of his neck again.
"I am not flirting" Queenie says out loud looking at Tina.
An embarrased Tina looks back at her sister "I'm just saying- don't get too attached he's going to be obliviated" she then looks at a Jacob.
"it's nothing personal."
To which Jacob suddenly looks more pale.
"Oh, hey honey you okay?" Queenie asks but before Jacob can respond Newt rather hastily stands up behind his chair.
"Miss Goldstein, i think we could all do with an early night. Besides we need to all go looking for my Niffler tomorrow-"
"What's a niffler?" Queenie asks looking over at Tina.
"You don't want to know."
Tina looks at her sister and stands up "You guys can all bunk in here, but you'll have to figure out who sleeps where... we only have two beds but we have plenty of floor" and she gestures to a room.
Tina leaves to go make hot drinks as Jacob gets into a neatly made single bed. Evelyn looks at Newt and Newt looks back at Evelyn before they both eye the second neatly made bed, the only other bed.
"I'll take the floor" Newt offers and Evelyn shakes her head.
"No i will, you've had a long journey here."
"We could sleep oppsite ends? Use to do it with Let- a friend of mine from school." Newt says covering up a name he almost said, this doesn't phase Evelyn as she's too busy feeling slightly flustered from Newt's suggestion to share a bed.
"Uh-um-okay" She replies rather nervously. Jacob is reading a wizarding book looking both confused and fascinated as Newt lays under the covers his head at the top of the bed and a flustered looking Evelyn with her head at the foot of the bed.
Tina arrives back with three cups of cocoa, she places them down on the bedside table before looking at Evelyn and Newt rather questionably, after the day she's just had she can't be bothered to ask.
"The toilets down the hall to the right" Tina says before closing the door behind her as she leaves.
"Mr Scamander, Evelyn look hot cocoa" Newt doesn't move and neither does Evelyn due to the close proximity to Newt, she's feeling rather nervous.
As soon as the light goes off from outside the door Newt stands up on the bed climbs over Evelyn and goes down to his case which lays on the floor infront of the door.
"Follow me" He says to Evelyn as he opens his case and climbs in disappearing, Evelyn looks at Jacob laughs out loud a shocked look the same as hers
Awkwardly Evelyn stands up "Won't be long"
Evelyn trys to sound confident as she nervously approaches the case stepping inside and disappearing too.

Kingmaker
This story is on hiatus/abandonned. People die, then that's all... or at least, it should be that way. There may be anomalies, yes – the occasional hero of old getting reincarnated for some obscure purpose – but who knows what the gods are thinking. If they are thinking at all. If there are gods, to begin with. What would explain such a mistake, then? The hero mark wasn't given to our reborn champion, but to his perfectly normal sister. A prank from these mindless gods, perhaps. Luckily for him, he was done with this hero business and had other plans for his new life, so it's all good... Here is the story of one who isn't meant to stand among heroes, kings and emperors anymore, yet will find himself holding power over them.

The Oscillation (No Swearing)
It was an average day in Miami—then fractures in the sky appeared. A pulse from those cracks altered the population; some people's biology changed while others received magical and supernatural powers. After the chaos, the political drama ensued, followed by the discovery of portals that brought deadly creatures. They called this event "The Oscillation" and it changed Rachel's life forever. Note: I've received some feedback that people don't like the foul language. This also included my mother, she wanted me to make a cleaner version for her. So, I thought I might as well release it alongside the more explicit version. I went back and rewrote the parts that have profanity in them. ^_^7 Cover Commissioned From Likesac ^_^7

Changement : Version Pile [French]
Notice: This story is in French, not in english, mainly because of my poor english. I may translate it later if I get better, and hopefully I will. _ Les cris de souffrance résonnent dans ses oreilles, dans sa tête et dans son coeur. Cette dernière image, ces derniers instants, ces morts incompréhensible, rien ne sera plus jamais pareil pour Nils Nocquat. Il sombre, et dans les ténèbres, découvre la fache cachée de son monde. Qui est coupable? Démon, Ange et autres Sonen, tous se renvoient la faute, et maintenant, Nils Change, il doit faire un choix. Indécis, il lance une pièce. Pile. Il a choisi son camp. Il deviendra un Démon, le meilleur ou le pire de tous, ce n'est qu'une question de point de vue. - Author's note: this story is a concept. During the first chapter, the main character is faced with a major decision, which will change his life forever, and, not knowing what to do, he decide to play heads or tails, and let fate choose for him. And so there will be two versions of this story, one for each of the result, and their consequences for the main character, as well as all those around him. Here, he got tails. Note de l'auteur: Comme dit plus haut, cette histoire sera en français, car je ne suis pas assez bon en anglais. De plus, cette histoire est un concept un peu particulier, le personnage principal va se retrouver face à un choix décisif qui va changer sa vie pour toujours, et, ne savant pas que faire, il va jouer à pile-ou-face, en laissant le destin décider pour lui. Il y a donc deux versions de cette histoire, une pour chacun des résultats de son lancer. Lien de l'autre version : https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/28318/changement-version-face-french Je vous encourage à ne pas lire les deux versions, ou en tout cas, à ne pas les lire en même temps. Elle sont assez peu similaires, mais des choses vont, logiquement, être répétées, et les confusions risquent d'être rapides, surtout au début des histoires. Dans tout les cas, ces deux histoires vont s'éloigner assez rapidement, tout en restant intrinsèquement liées par leurs personnage principal. Libre à vous de choisir la version qui vous plaît le plus, sachant que vous n'aurez pas besoin de lire les deux pour comprendre toutes les intrigues, elles sont absolument indépendantes l'une de l'autre. Le seul chapitre identique dans les deux versions est le prologue. C'est la deuxième fois maintenant que je publie quelque chose que j'ai écrit, mais ça ne me rends pas meilleur en terme d'orthographe et de grammaire, donc si vous relevez une erreur, où même si vous remarquez des incohérences, n'hésitez surtout pas à me le faire remarquer. Toute critique, qu'elle soit positive ou négative, est appréciée. En terme de rythme de publication, je pense sortir un chapitre par semaine dans chacune des deux histoires.
