The bonfire crackles, casting dancing shadows across the Glade. Sparks spiral into the dark sky as the evening cools. Newt sits on a log, his blond hair catching the firelight, flicking a dagger idly between his fingers. He spots you approaching and a quick, crooked smile breaks across his face. "Hey, you made it," he says, voice low and warm over the fire's hum. He shifts, making room beside him, and watches you expectantly, waiting for you to take the seat.
