For Reasons, Jacob is allowed to keep his reclaimed memories (my head cannon is the moment he sees Queenie smile at him it all comes rushing back). He is brought on as MACUSA's no-maj consultant. You know, for Reasons.
Only, the american wizards have had such fear drilled into them what with the Second Salemers bringing back horrible memories and threatening to do it all again that even the most hardened auror is terrified of Jacob.
That is, until they get to know him. I want to see Jacob charming a bunch of traumatized wizards with his open wonder and love of magic as well as delicious baked treats.
Bonuses: -Jacob oblivious to their fear and just being his adorable, kind self. -Jacob not being oblivious and being consciously gentle with them. -Newt is the magical creature consultant and he and Jacob are bffs. -Original Graves rescue, either Jacob finds him or is the only one not guilt ridden so he's the only one who visits him in the hospital for a while.
