AU where Grindelwald does a serious number on Graves.
The specifics I leave up to you, but maybe he's blind now, or deaf, or in a wheelchair, or had limbs amputated, etc. Something that changes his life in a hugely significant, permanent way. (aka please no wand waving magic cure that fixes him all better)
I mostly want to know how he deals with this, both physically and mentally. Ideally they still let him keep his job, but he'll never work in the field again. Not to mention that the world in 2016 still struggles to accommodate disability, it cannot have been very fun in the 1920s. He likely would have to overhaul his life completely.
BONUS BONUS for precious angel Newt being an awesome supportive boyfriend, maybe even some musings on how they navigate things like their sex life, but if you'd like to just focus on Graves that is also awesome <3
Graves/Newt or Gen, Graves dealing with disability
