OP here, and ahhhhh AHHHHH I'm so incredibly lucky you filled my prompt! It's everything I wanted. Your writing is so beautifully descriptive, and I love your characterization of dear, shy Newt and lovely, kind Queenie... Your descriptions of the clothes (magic color-changing dresses! I WANT A MAGIC COLOR-CHANGING DRESS! ;w;) capture exactly what's so alluring about them, and in such a subtle, tender way that I really feel for Newt... But I have great hope that his wish to feel beautiful will be fulfilled, now. :D
As for lines and little touches I loved, there's a lot of them, but:
Newt still looks absolutely gobsmacked, his fingers white-knuckled where they cling to her vanity, as though waiting for…
“Honey, I would never!”
Ohhh noooo, wy do I have a feeling Newt has run into someone else who isn't as kind as Queenie? ;_;
Quennie’s mother-of-pearl and silver vanity set, which belonged to her grandmother, gleams in the candlelight and will sparkle little showers of gold when a jar is opened. (It was the first charm she’d cast on her own after graduation.)
THIS IS PERFECT. THAT IS ALL.
“Neshomeleh, hush. You think I say what I don't mean?”
I love pet names and I love people being nice to Newt, YES GOOD.
Anyway, I apologize for the ramble, but I just wanted to say thank you again, authoranon! Seeing this fill made my day (and, tbh, my holiday!) and I'm just really, really grateful that I got to read such a lovely fic! :D
