Clegan fantastic beasts and where to find them AU Fic idea:
So this won't leave my brain, and I need someone to write this! 😩
(They meet before the first movie, and cross paths again in the third movie)
Theseus Scamander and Gale Cleven (I don't know what other name to give him in this AU) meet and fight together during the war and grow close. They're both wizards.
Gale falls in love with him but doesn't say anything.
Once the war is over, Theseus has to return home, but promises to keep in contact with Gale through letters.
Over the next few years Gale sends him letters and eagerly awaits his own in return. Theseus never responds.
Over time, Gale stops sending letters, resentment towards his friend growing stronger and stronger.
Theseus returns home and is rewarded for his exemplary performance during the war. He's viewed as a war hero.
He eagerly waits for Gale to send him a letter, but it never comes. Theseus doesn't know whether or not he should send the first letter.
He decides against it, patiently waiting until eventually, it becomes an afterthought. Too many things around him need his attention.
He becomes an aurora for the British ministry and works his way to the top, becoming head of the Auror's office.
He is soon set to be engaged to Leta Lestrange. A political marriage of convenience. News spreads quickly and soon, Gale is made aware. Through the newspaper.
The events of the second movie transpire as normal. (Leta Lestrange doesn't die).
*Now we're set during the beginning of the third movie*
Gale goes to England , he's sent over on a secret mission. He plans on doing his job and returning to the United states as soon as possible.
As it turns out, this super secret mission involves stopping Grindelwald. That means that Theseus is also involved.
He's there to help his younger brother Newt. Leta also joins in to help, alongside Jacob (Muggle), Bunty (Newt's assistant), Professor Eulalie (witchcraft teacher) and Yusuf kama(a powerful wizard, and Leta's half brother)
Theseus and Gale have a very rocky reunion. Theseus seemingly oblivious to Gale's hostile demeanor.
Over the course of their mission, Gale grows close to Newt, his interest in magical creatures makes Newt open up to him.
Theseus doesn't take this well, as he's always had a hard time bonding with his younger brother.
Tension between them grows and it starts to affect the team. Leta tries to difuse the situation, but it only seems to make things worse.
Something happens and Theseus and Gale trapped in a dangerous situation. They argue and Theseus snaps, demanding to know why Gale has been so cold towards him.
Gale tells him about the letters he sent him. How he waited for Theseus to respond. How he thought he cared about him.
What letters?
Theseus hadn't received any letters. He wanted to send his own letters to Gale, but he didn't, waiting for Gale's first letter, like he had promised.
They clear things up, and escape from danger. Gale apologises and Theseus does as well.
They hug.
Theseus tells him how happy he is to have his friend back. That breaks Gale's heart.
It's at that moment that he realises. All those years of resentment and pain had all been for nothing. Gale knew.
He has never stopped loving Theseus.
They reunite with the others and go on to complete the mission.
During their final confrontation with Grindelwald, they seem to be losing, all hope lost.
Gale decides to sacrifice himself to help the others.
Now, I see three endings for this fic.
Happy ending:
Gale survives Grindelwald's attack and Theseus, terrified at the thought of losing him, realises he also has feelings for Gale.
He breaks off his engagement with Leta, they remain good friends. (I love Leta, I physically cannot bring myself to make her evil or cruel)
He starts courting Gale.
They can't get married, because they're both men and it's the 1940s, but they spend the rest of their lives together, loving each other to the end of their days.
Bittersweet ending:
Gale survives Grindelwald's attack. Theseus ends up marrying Leta. Gale is at their wedding. They say goodbye with the promise of sending letters to eachother properly.
Gale returns to the United states. He never falls in love again, living the rest of his life in solitude.
The only comfort in his life being the letters Theseus sends him updating him on his own life.
His anniversaries, the birth of his children, Theseus makes him the Godfather to one of his kids, and so on.
Gale dies at 45 of a broken heart.
Theseus lives on.
Sad Ending:
Gale dies sacrificing himself.
He dies thinking about Theseus. He dies with the thought that at least now, Theseus gets to be happy and live his life growing old married to Leta.
He dies not knowing Theseus loved him back.
Soooo, what ending do you like more? Let me know!

I love all the implications of Jamie getting Roy the KUNT shirt. Because there’s so much to unpack here
Phoebe reached out to Jamie, and obviously her mum was in on it. They've clearly met before! He held Phoebe's hand and didn't introduce himself to Roy's sister. They know him!
Jamie was away training with the England national team. That’s two hours outside of London. He had to take the afternoon off (from England training camp! decked in his England gear) to go to Phoebe’s party.
Lassoverse Gareth Southgate was in on it. He would have needed to get permission to leave! (Or he snuck out, but S3 Jamie wouldn’t). I bet he had to explain why.
When Jamie says “I got them to change the E to a U.” This wasn’t a DIY gift. He got the national team equipment people to make him a version of the 2014 wc kit with Roy’s number that says KUNT on it. NO WAY it would’ve stayed a secret.
In conclusion: the entire England national team knows about the ROY KUNT shirt and they were absolutely completely totally on board. They also all know about Jamie’s big crush
