Much to everyone's surprise, original!Graves and Newt's Niffler actually end up becoming the best of friends.

Or, in which taking over the life of a high level government official is not nearly as easy as it seems and what the hell does Act1895 Article 5 Subsection B1312 have to do with anything and why does it need to be in triplicate?!?!

So, Colin Farrell has a *great* singing voice (for example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UfXoIEBVYI) so Graves must have one too.
How does everyone find out? He sings to himself doing paperwork? To Credence? While undercover? Grindelwald discovers it post polyjuice and loves it because he can't sing at all in his own body?
(Or you've remember this JLU plot line (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncj-wpBhr5E) where Batman is forced to sing to save Wonder Woman. Don't tell me Circe isn't giving you Grindelwald vibes)

Graves is an animagus who somehow gets stuck in his animal form. Newt is the one called upon to help save the day.

So Queenie and Jacob are courting, and Jacob totally has his memories back. They set up a bakery somewhere (maybe NOT NYC, because of the segregation - could be London, Edinburgh, Paris, Budapest, wherever) and Queenie makes Jacob's amazing pastries EVEN MORE AMAZING with magic - like, the niffler choux buns are animated, that kind of thing.

Basically I just want them being adorable, with baked goods.

Bonus if Graves wasn't expecting that from Credence

After being rescued, Graves wasn't fired, but decided to quit anyway. Months later, Tina needs his help in solving a case off the books. She finds him drinking his sorrows away in a bar, scruffy and depressed ala Norrington in Pirates 2. She basically bullies some self-worth back into him while he deals with some severe unresolved trauma, and the two of them save the day.

Theseus is indeed the elder Scamander brother. Elder by 16 minutes.

It's always easy to tell them apart by their attitudes and the way they carry themselves, but Theseus and Newt aren't twins for nothing. They've learnt how to impersonate each other's demeanor in a pinch.

Cue twin shenanigans.

If characters from other universes had been Newt's old friend/flame instead of Leta Lestrange. Like Carmen Sandiego. Or Phryne Fisher. Or Irene Adler. Or ...you get the idea. Single sentence fills just as awesome as big ones.

Credence thought Dumbledore and Grindelwald were sharing him. Dumbledore thought he and Credence were sharing Grindelwald. Grindelwald thought he owned Credence and Dumbledore. All are wrong.

It's possible this has been posted and I just missed it, but...

Jacob and Queenie fall in love at first sight. The only problem is, after some kind of canning factory accident, Jacob forgets everything since it every night. Fortunately, not only is Queenie very easy to fall in love with, she also has the skills to know exactly how to address his concerns on any given day.

Dumbledore either willingly or through coercion helps Grindelwald take over the world. Grindelwald thanks him by sitting him on his throne and giving him head.

Newt was bitten by a werewolf on his travels. He's adjusted quite well to his new status - he spends his full moons in his case, surrounded by magical creatures who are all too happy to groom and play with him.

After the entire Grindlewald fiasco, when the original Percival Graves is found and rescued - he and Newt take one look at one another and know.

Credence still hasn't found the child but naively asks Graves if he can see some more magic. Cue Grindelgraves losing his temper, asking what Credence's mother does when he fails and following through with giving Credence a belt-lashing that'd make Mary Lou proud.

Then the added headfuck of Grindelgraves bending Credence over and raping his sorely beaten and bruised ass while telling Credence how much he cares and it's all Credence's fault that he's doing this.

RACCOON PATRONUS BONUS: The only reason Grindelgraves doesn't summon the obscurus is because he does show Credence some magic - the obliviate spell.

During the time period of the film, the wizarding world has laws that make it the head of a household's decision who the other members marry. The younger members have no legal say in who they marry (although they can be granted a divorce in cases of abuse or infidelity).
Newt has been married at least twice before, each time to someone who treated him terribly. Just before the movie, Theseus became head of the household. Theseus genuinely cares for his little brother and just wants him to be with someone who treats him well. Because of this, he decided to ask his penpal, Graves, to marry his brother, because he knows he's a decent guy. Graves, feeling sorry for Newt and wanting to help out his friend, had agreed. However, by this point, Newt's too traumatized and wants nothing to do with arranged marriages anymore (maybe not even relationships in general).
He sets off running from the engagement, traveling from place to place because if he stays in one country too long, the wizarding government might force him to go back to England and get married.
The events of the movie happen, and Graves is rescued. MACUSA keeps Newt from leaving at the end, with the intention of forcing him to go through with the marriage. Graves, however, demands that they let Newt go, because he agreed to the engagement to help Newt, not to traumatize him further, and now that Newt helped save Graves and all of New York, the least they can do is let him come and go as he pleases.
Newt leaves, but grateful for Graves's gesture, starts a correspondence with his fiancée, and they become friends, maybe slowly evolving into something more.

I've seen this idea floated in other prompts as a side-idea, but I kind of want to see it explored, so...wizards have entirely different ideas and prejudices to wizards. They're still prejudiced against Muggles and magical creatures and so on, but race and gender and sexuality are just...non-issues, don't even register. But they still have to live cheek-by-jowl with a Muggle world where these things are massive, massive issues. How does this affect people's lives if, for example, Picquery is respected and highly thought-of among wizards, but treated disparagingly in the Muggle world. If same-sex married couples have to constantly remember what the social norms are in the Muggle world and why they can't be open about their relationship in Muggle areas, and so on and so forth.
Bonus points for:
- Some exploration of the differences in prejudices - house-elves, goblins etc are still treated badly, but wizards don't notice the hypocrisy in condemning Muggle attitudes.
- Jacob learning to navigate the differences because of his relationship with Queenie.
- Newt/Graves or Tina/Picquery would be nice, but not necessary.

Magizoologists are rare creatures, and what dark lord wouldn't want someone with the ability to control beasts in his army?

In which Newt is both a magizoologist and an omega, and Grindelwald has no other option than to claim such a specimen.

I have no shame and I know it's a syrupy trope, but can I get some scar worship porn with these two, please? My soul for Credence getting all of the loving palm and back kisses he certainly needs. And for Graves to be completely ruined by Credence finding and tracing all of his scars. Especially if Graves picked up a few crucio marks during his captivity. And extra especially if one of those crucio marks happens to be close enough to Graves' dick for Credence to keep stroking the scar while blowing Graves.

Credence hasn't been feeling well, and he's starting to feel feverish. When he goes to Mary Lou with his concerns, she tells him there's only one way to find out if he really has a fever.

Super Shame Bonus if she takes his temperature and decides that he's not really sick, and punishes him for pretending to be ill in order to shirk his duties.

Graves is Grindelwalds Prisoner, but he wouldn't be Graves if he hadn't tried everything to escape. Luck seemed to be on his side, because Graves is able to break through his chains.

But he doesn't get far, Grindelwald catches him again and decides he needs to punish his prisoner to remind him who's the boss. He curses Graves so he is constantly on the edge but can't cum.

Bonus:

+ unbroken Graves who still fights Grindelwald in every aspect
++ amused Grindelwald for the escape attempt, before losing his shit
+++ Graves fighting the curse the best he can
++++ Grindelwald likes to fuck rough

A year or two before the film events, Graves was smitten by Theseus Scamander - brilliant, easygoing, successful Theseus.

Time passes, and post-film Graves meets with Newt and falls in love again. His capitivity has left traces, and Graves loves everything in Newt that is Newt - his gentleness, care, sensitivity. But then someone tells Newt Graves used to carry a torch for his twin and trouble meets Paradise - with Newt angsting that he's just a replacement for charismatic Theseus, and probably a shoddy one.

Graves doesn't realize this at once, but when he does, he makes sure Newt knows he is loved and cherished for himself.

(If you'd rather cast Theseus as an older brother than a second-born twin, I'm fine with that too!)

Newt cries and Graves has no idea how to handle it. They can be in an established relationship or not but I just think the idea of Graves panicking the fuck out is hilarious

Post-film, Graves is rescued and goes back to work. Somehow, he gets injured while on a case, and ends up in the hospital. Grindelwald (who's escaped by this point, because, let's face it, he was probably in custody for all of 24 hours) pays him a visit. Graves, too injured to even move around that much, can't do anything about it.

Note: I'd prefer no rape (as in penetrative sex). That being said, nonconsensual touching is still on the table.

Original!Graves, much to his surprise, is in a relationship with the Scamander twins, Theseus and Newton.

The rest of the MACUSA is /also/ very surprised. (How did Graves - solid, dependable, humorless Graves - end up with twins?!)

I don't know if I'm the only one who thought about this but; what if Newt just forgets that he's put his wand between his teeth or perched on his ear like one would do with a pen or a pencil. I imagine he doesn't hold it to the same regard as his suitcase, it's still up there, but if it was a choice between his case and his wand, the cse will always win.

He's tending to his creatures and the hours start blurring together and he just forgets where he put it. When he finally emerges from his case and reaches for his wand that isn't in it's usual place he just does what most people would do and retraces his steps, only to find himself still wandless. He goes around MACUSA and asks if anyone's seen his wand and everyone responds 'no' (think of those situations where people put their glasses on top of their head and forget that they've done it, no one notices/ignores it because they don't see it or they think they're being punked).

Everyone except Graves who is observing the whole thing with a look of disbelief because, wtf, how did any of you become aurors with your atrocious observation skills?

I think about this a lot more than I'd like to admit...
