Summary
Updated summary:
Just before his plans were to come to fruition, revealing the magical world through death and destruction, Gellert Grindelwald arranged for Director Graves, whom he was keeping prisoner in his own home (for Polyjuice Potions and the sadistic pleasure of having someone to torment) to be turned into a werewolf. Grindelwald knows exactly how the American wizarding society treats magical beasts, and so even when Grindelwald has moved on, Graves will never be allowed to forget.
Now, plans foiled, the Statute of Secrecy still holds, and Grindelwald himself is in MACUSA custody, but Percival Graves's life is still in ruins. Weakened from months in captivity, physically and mentally, and burdened by the knowledge of his new condition, strange instincts and crippling nightmares, as well as the heartbreaking realisation that no one noticed that he had been replaced, Graves struggles to move on. It's hard, though, when everywhere he turns, he sees fear, suspicion, distrust, and worst of all, pity.
Everywhere except for in Newt Scamander, the stranger who unmasked his imposter, who rescued him. Newt Scamander, who seems to look at Graves and see something interesting. Something fantastic.
