So, Percival meets Credence giving tracts in the cold street. Like in the movie/play, when Credence goes to Percy's home to give back the money he was given, because it was too much, Professor Graves decides on a bet : he will have this street urchin squib pass for powerful, foreign wizard royalty at the Macusa ball, a select event with magical demonstrations. Little does he know all the power the young man possesses ... yet. He will take him in and teach Credence to act aristocratic AND to harness his power do magic.
Graves is a demanding teacher, but not unkind and not as insensitive as Prof Higgins. Credence jumps at the opportunity to escape MaryLou. They fall in love in the process, of course.
After all, the lyrics for "Wouldn't it be Loverly" fit Credence so well !
