Theseus, Newt, and Henry walked down the road in silence. Theseus was holding his son's hand lost in thought as he walked to Newt's house. Newt looked at his brother concerned. This was rare for Newt. He and Theseus don't have a good relationship but after Paris, he feels that he needs to watch him like a hawk. He's unsure why. Newt has never felt like this before. Newt let out a sigh once they reached his house. Newt pulled out his key and unlocked the door. He let Theseus in and then walked in shutting the door behind him. Henry looked around Newt house. "I like this house, Father. Is this your uncle Newt?" Newt looked at him. Newt nodded, however, he did not meet his eyes.

"Theses?" Theseus looked at Newt and nodded.

"Yes, Newton?" Theseus asked as he sat down in the chair that he was previously sitting in. he then pulled Henry into his lap.

"I'll be downstairs if you need me," Theseus nodded at his brother who walked down to be with his beasts. Henry watched as his uncle walked down the stairs to the basement.

Newt sat at his desk looking at his picture of Leta again. He already looked after his beasts and he knows that he should eat something, but he can't bring himself to get out of his shed to see his nephew who has Leta's eyes. Newt put the picture down and put his head in his hands. Newt did not know how long he was like this, but he did not hear Theseus and Henry walk down to see Newt. "This is Newt's shed," Theseus said once he walked in. Newt did not seem to notice them. "Newt?" Theseus questioned as he looked at Newt who was looking at the picture of Leta. Theseus sighed and taped Newt on his shoulder. Newt looked at him. Theseus saw tears in his brother's eyes.

"Oh, Theseus I did not hear you come in. Ah, showing your son around I see. Just be careful when you're walking around some of my beasts don't like strangers," Newt said as he stood up with a small smile on his face. However, Theseus could still see sadness in his eyes. Theseus nodded and said:

"Give us the tour little brother?" Newt brightens up and led his family through the basement of his house.

Henry had gone to bed after the tour. Theseus was drinking at the table when Newt came back up from downstairs. "Did, um, he like it?" Newt asked uncomfortable at the fact that Theseus will be living with Newt along with his son for a while. Theseus looked at Newt and nodded.

"Yes, Newton. He did, he loved it in fact. I think I'm the only one in this family who does not have an interest in Magical beasts' little brother," Theseus laughed and took a sip of his drink. Newt smiled a little and sat down across from his brother.

"Have you told him yet?" Newt asked after he took a breath and put his drink down. Theseus looked at Newt shocked. He has never seen Newt drink before.

"No, Newt I have not. How do you tell someone that? Huh. How do you tell your only son? Who, by the way, are a bastard son that his mother will not be coming home because she died. I know your not good at this stuff Newt but…. I just don't know who to talk to," Theseus said with a sigh as he took a long sip of his drink. Newt sighed and met Theseus's eyes for a while before he looked away when he looked at his.

"I'm sorry Theses. I should have not asked that," Newt said as he looked down at his drink in his hands. Theseus took this time to study his brother. He looked really tired and worn down. His distant hazel eyes were blood-shot and foggy. He did not wear his normal blue-black coat like he always does. He looked really sad and drained like all he does is work with his beasts. Theseus at this moment realized that Newt is just like him. They both work into the wee hours of the night because they don't want to sleep for all they see is Leta dying. Theseus always had a hard time sleeping since he came back from the war, but this was different. Theseus loved her, she loved her son. His son oh how will he tell him that he will never see her again. Grindelwald he's the one that did this. Theseus closed his eyes in his own tiredness but then opened them when he saw her die right in front of him. Theseus then took a long drink and set it down on the table. Newt was shaken out of his thoughts by this.

"Sorry Newt," Theseus muttered as he looked to Newt who looked at him. Newt waved it off.

"It's ok brother. I'll be in my study if you need me," Newt said as he stood up and walked to the stares. However, Theseus stopped him.

"You will sleep right, Newton?" Theseus asked in a demanding tone. Newt, however, was used to this. Newt did not say anything as he nodded. Theseus looked at him and sighed.

"I will brother," Newt said as he walked up the stairs not looking back at Theseus. Theseus went to bed a few hours after Newt went into his study. Theseus, however, was too tired to see if he was asleep. Theseus let out a sigh when his head hit his pillow. Theseus closed his eyes. The war hero was asleep in minutes.

Newt sat at his desk lost in thought. Theseus was right he needs sleep, but he was not as strong as him. Newt let out a sigh when he saw the sunrise. "Another night," he muttered as he walked down the stairs to see Theseus drinking coffee. Newt let out a sigh when Theseus looked at him. "Did you sleep at all Newton?" Theseus asked as he stood up and crossed his arms. Newt did not say anything. "Artemis answer me!" Theseus demanded. Newt shook his head. Theseus looked at him and said: "Why, why don't you sleep. You never sleep even when…..."

"Oh, don't you go there," Newt said suddenly angry. "Don't bring father into this. Sure, he told us to stay sharp and I did not listen to him, but do you know what he did to me brother? Of course, you don't you are the favored son. The perfect son. The one whom they love the most!" Newt yelled. Newt did not usually yell so Theseus was shocked by this.

"Newton, I slept even though father told us not too. father did the same to me. So, don't you dare say that I'm the perfect son. I'm not. You have no idea what I did in the war,"

"Oh, don't bring up the bloody war. You always bring it up. I fought in it too 'older brother.'" The brothers argued for a while until Henry woke. However, the brothers were too busy arguing to notice. Henry watched with fear and tears in his eyes. However, he did not let them fall that is what people told him all his life. 'Don't cry Scamander.' Henry watched as Newt turned away to look right at Henry, but he did not meet his eyes. "Theseus?" Newt muttered to his brother who looked at his son with wide eyes.

"Oh, Merlin. I'm sorry you had to hear that my son. Come here," Henry nodded and walked over to his father with tears in his eyes, but he did not let them fall. Newt saw this but did not say anything. Newt was still angry but once he saw his brother and his son hugging Newt calmed down a little.

"Can we have something to eat father?" Henry asked once he pulled out of his father's arms. Theseus nodded.

"Of course, son. You going to join us brother?" Theseus asked, however, Newt disappeared downstairs. Theseus let out a sigh and pulled out his wand to make them something.

"Is he going to join us father?" Henry asked Theseus who was making them breakfast. Theseus sighed and said:

"I don't know Henry. I need to tell you something though. It's about your mother,"
