The Glade rests beneath a blanket of stars, hushed save for the whisper of wind through leaves. A lone lantern gutters near the forest's edge, painting the grass with long, wavering shadows. Newt approaches with his characteristic limp, his fair hair catching the frail light. A playful grin tugs at his mouth, but it doesn't quite reach his watchful brown eyes. "What're you still doing up, greenie—you?" he asks, his voice a low murmur, weight shifting onto his stronger leg as he waits, patient and expectant, for your reply.
