You say that now. [Her answer is quiet and she lets it hang there for a moment. She doubts it will be glamorous, for all of their differences she and Newt are alike in many ways. She just wants to do her own investigations without any trouble, Newt's the same.

The boost in courage wavers by now and she presses her hands deeper into the pockets of her trench coat in thought before carrying on:] Well, then. Perhaps we should--? [Her gaze peers back over the wreckage she was dealing with earlier, shoulders rising and falling.]

[ Yes, the wreckage. They should get back to being helpful soon. He takes a few steps forward and suddenly stops. ]

Yes, but first — [ he fiddles with his shirt sleeves. How to say this? ] — I met someone. Earlier. [ HE LEAVES THAT HANGING SORRY TINA. As is often the case, he's struggling for the right words. Finally, by way of explanation — ] Someone who read my book. Who liked my book, I think.

[ gotta talk about time-travelling wizards and also book reviews, after all. ]

[Newt, you are the least helpful person. She already stops short in confusion and then he drops that bomb.] What--? But you haven't even published it yet!

[If that is an admission that in the past three months she kept a look out for news, she doesn't flush from it.] This place is more balled up by the second...

[ carding a hand through his hair. ] Yes, it seems like the Natha have a been a bit haphazard with their rescue points.

[ meaning that there are some future wizards about. ]

His name's Remus Lupin. And he has quite the, ah, unique set of scars... [ he trails off, not wanting to say a beast was involved but thinking it nonetheless. ] He was...amicable.

[Tina furrows her brow further. It is already too complicated, but she remembers the man now-- A Hogwarts professor who said Grindelwald was long captured. He'd mentioned no word of newt's book, but she supposed that made sense--]

[She lets out a puff of breath at the thought, irritable yet.]

There's another man. Sirius. I suppose he's the other wizard here, but i don't know-- He seems a little... unhinged. I disarmed him earlier.

[ His eyebrows shoot up to his hairline. ]

You disarmed him? [ Well, she had said unhinged. Why is he even surprised anymore, Tina Goldstein. ] Actually, you did try to arrest me, when we met. [ back to the matter at hand — ] How did he take it?

[ Clearly, he isn't too concerned or perturbed. Intrigued, mostly. ]

Yes, well, you looked suspicious. And I was right; this man was preparing to hex me the moment I said I was an Auror. [She scowls at the thought-- she has good instincts, trained by Percival Graves. She might have lost her job due to recklessness, but it's something she stoodby-- helping someone in need.]

Of course he didn't take it alright.

[ At that, Newt tenses. He knows that Tina can handle herself (better than himself, in truth), but he doesn't like the thought of someone attacking her, even if they failed. ]

Oh my days, that's — extreme. [ wanting to hex her for being an Auror, he means. He stops to look over her properly now, brows knit in concern. ] Are you all right?

Extreme's one word for it. [Certainly, she seems more frustrated and annoyed than anything like mad or fearful. Grimacing, she nods as she tucks her hair away with a shrug.] 'Course I am-- Well, I mean, no worse for wear than the rest of the day has been.

Yes, of course. [ Of course Tina's fine, but it's hard not to be unsettled by the presence of another, perhaps slightly darker, wizard here. Grindelwald had been gaining more and more followers before it the storm ended it all... ]

Do you think he's a threat to muggles?

[ because 90% of these refugees are variations on muggles. ]

That's-- I'm not sure? [She's rather deflated as she answers, exhaling before she shakes her head and adds:] He helped me at first, but even he described it as his "good dead"--

If they got in the way...

[ He mouths an 'O'. WIth so many skittish muggles about, a rogue wizard would lead to exceptional difficulties. ]

I'm sure you have the situation handled, but I'm available to help, if need be. [ A beat. He tips his head, looking at her with a measure of surety. ] I trust your judgment.

[Well, at least someone does. Her smile is shy and appreciative as she ducks her head slightly before giving a laugh.] So long as he doesn't cause any trouble we'll be fine.

[ as long as Tina says it's fine... he regards her for a long moment, just to be sure. ]

Good. [ he gestures back to the chaos around them. ] Shall we rejoin the fray?

[She seems anxious and worried, but frankly, the situation surrounding them is enough of a reason to produce that.

Drawing out a breath, she gives a short nod.] Well, there's still plenty to be done before the night closes.
