After Eddie Redmayne said Graves magic skill was like 50 Shades I had to...
Newt was never meant to interview Percival Graves, the fiercely private billionaire CEO of Graves Industries, but somehow it still happened. While most press would kill to talk to him and fawning, Newt is refreshingly honest, if a little clumsy and shy and Percival, famed for his iron control is torn between amusement and exasperation. This isn't how his one-off interview should've been (he's seriously regretting letting his PA Queenie talk his into this) and he's not used to this. Percival is rich, powerful and the master of his extensive realm, he’s also a man who does his homework, Mr Scamander is exclusively attracted to men and is a virgin to boot. He is completely different to the men Percival normally seeks, and Percival has very… exclusive tastes when it comes to his bed-mates. Normally he’s hoping for a quick seduction and quicker goodbye and Newt should follow that pattern, Newt isn't playing by his rules.
He's clearly attracted to Percival, after all, who isn't, so it should've been easy to coax Newt into his bed virgin or not, he could only imagine how gorgeous the boy look on his bed, but it isn’t enough for Newt. For the first time, here is a man who isn’t interested in Percival’s money, looks or the Graves name and lifestyle it promises. Newt for all his clumsy shyness isn’t willing to fall into Percival's arms or play his games and won't be coaxed or wooed into anywhere thank you! So Percival does what he does best…he chases, and aims to win. What starts as an amusing game of seduction on Percival's part slowly changes when he realises it's no game Newt is playing. Newt may be inexperienced, but he has a strength to him, an integrity that Percival admires.
But Percival isn't an easy man to love, or understand. He can chase for the thrill, for seduction with the best of them, but trying to win love…that's new. Will Percival be able to find a new way to live and love, or will Newt be his only failure, because not only does Newt have a mind and will of his own but he has friends and family, who though small, may prove an even greater trial than Newt.
