But consider: Albus realizes Theseus is a problem so he captures him and convinces Newt to help take care of him. “He’s so stressed all the time. Don’t you think it’s time someone took care of him, Luv?” Albus starts giving Theseus the same potion to help him mellow out and slowly starts reshaping him. It’s hard as Theseus is a strong man with a strong mind, but little by little it’s chipped away and he comes to love Albus’s care and touches just as much as Newt.

Newt is delighted to have his brother visit more often.  He knows Theseus’ job is very stressful and he’s glad that he can take the time to relax when he visits, it can’t be good for him to be so overworked.  He just wants Theseus to be happy.

Albus is very, very careful.  He knows he has to get this exactly right.  Newt was young and pliable, but Theseus is a trained auror.  If he suspects something is off Albus could loose everything.  It’s risky, but after a lot of debate Albus decides it’s the best way.

He starts Theseus off on very small doses.  Tiny amounts each time he visits which don’t do more than lift his mood slightly and make the visits particularly enjoyable.  Slowly, over the course of months, he starts to visit more and more often.  He doesn’t know why he’s doing it, other than that he just really enjoys seeing Albus and Newt.  He’s so much happier when he’s with them, and so miserable when he’s stuck in everyday life.

When he starts visiting regularly, every weekend, Albus knows it’s time to increase the dose.  Newt is glad to see his brother so relaxed and happy.

Not too long after that Theseus does realize something’s wrong – but it’s too late.  He craves Albus’ potion and his presence even though he knows it’s been forced upon him, and he can’t bring himself to fight or report it.  He realizes the same thing must have been done to Newt, it explains so much, but though he knows he should be livid about it – would have been, just a few short months ago – it doesn’t feel so important anymore.  Only the potion is important.

Albus quickly ramps up the dose, keeping Theseus thoroughly drugged up while he conditions him.  It still takes work, but he can feel the resistance melting away.

Gellert abducts Newt and imprisons him in Nurmengard. Then he disguises himself as Newt and returns to Albus. After a nice hot cup of tea they go to bed, and suddenly Albus realizes that he can’t move. His thoughts are clear, but his body just doesn’t work. And now Gellert (still in disguise, cause being hurt by someone you love is more effective) starts having a little fun with Albus. This is gonna be a long night, and Gellert enjoys every scream, plea and whimper.

Ooh how cruel 😀 Imagine him telling Albus, as Newt, that he wanted to leave him.  It’s what Albus feared most from the beginning, it’s why he’s done all of this, and now it’s happening.  Newt, his sweet Newt, wants to leave.  And the next day, he disappears.

(Though I can’t help but think, if Gellert hasn’t yet figured out about the potion – which he wouldn’t really have time to, if he replaced Newt before Albus noticed he was missing – he might not know to be careful what food and drink he accepts from Albus.  At best, Gellert would go through some nasty withdrawals.  At worst… well, let’s just say the potion is highly effective.)

For the marriage au? Perhaps Grindelwald takes away newt on one of his little trips and watches the poor dear fall apart. Hmmm, perhaps he’d see the best way to fight back against dumbledore for this Betrayal would be to condition newt as well,, the image of newt going to Grindelwald and telling/doing everything he did to dumbledore to Grindelwald to be good and not make his husband’s dear friend jealous

Newt would fall apart so well.  He’d be terrified and lost without Albus, and when the withdrawls start to kick in… he melts into an adorable little mess right there in the sitting room and oh, Gellert quite likes that.  

He gathers Newt into his arms and murmurs words of comfort, soothing away the tears until he’s able to speak again and Gellert can coax out all the intimate little details of his marriage.  Newt gets this dreamy look on his face when he talks about Albus, and Gellert decides right then and there that he’s going to help himself to Albus’ lovely boy.

Exactly. Albus still has control over Newt, just in a different way. Newt’s social anxiety and newfound fame after his book is published continuously drives him back into his husband’s arms. The world is so exhausting. Why does he bother going out there when he can stay with his husband and be happy and let Albus touch him and make all of his choices and decisions? Of course, it won’t last forever. Grindelwald learns of Newt’s marriage and becomes jealous. Time to pay him a little visit.

The world gives Newt a headache. Whenever he stays out there too long, on a book tour or a research trip, it gives him this awful pounding behind his eyes. It just builds and builds, eventually his muscles get shaky, and interacting with people is so hard and stressful on top of it all. The only relief is falling back into Albus’ arms, and the comfort of having his husband there to take care of him and handle the hard decisions for him – all the decisions, really – is so welcome after the struggle of being out there alone. Newt just isn’t made to handle those sorts if things, it’s too stressful for him, and that’s okay. He has a husband who loves and understands him.

Gellert, though – oh no. That’s such a wonderful idea, there’s so much potential. I imagine Newt has been married to Albus for several years – and is thoroughly trained and addicted – by the time Gellert finds out. Albus probably kept the marriage fairly quiet at the time, not wanting it all over the wizarding press that he married one if his students, even if it’s legal and his intentions were honorable. Maybe it’s on the back cover of Newt’s book – “Newton Scamander lives at Hogwarts with his husband, Albus Dumbledore, without whom this work would not have been possible.”

Gellert would be furious. Albus is married? To some magizoologist named Newt? And Gellert didn’t even know. He’s livid.

There are so many different possibilities for what he could do next though. Does he visit Newt and try to manipulate him into leaving Albus? Abduct and torture him to punish Albus? Abduct Newt to keep him for himself? I bet he’d be surprised, and then a bit pleased, when he realizes how much Albus trained and conditioned Newt – Albus always claimed the moral high ground, but look what he did to this boy.

There are just so many possibilities. I bet whatever he does though, he wants to send a very, very clear message to Albus about what he thinks of being replaced by some little slut

An alternate verse where Grindelwald is a succubus. He’s powerful because of all the wizards he’s drained in the past. He keeps Percy from escaping by feeding from him in the morning until Percy’s a moaning pile on the floor. After some time, Percy becomes addicted and no longer has to be forced. He begs Grindelwald for more and Grindelwald is only too happy to give him what he wants.

OMG THIS IS MY JAM ANON

That moment where Grindelwald can feel the please no turn to a please yes.  The deep, shuddering breathes that rattle his captive’s chest – he’s weak, so very weak.  His head lolls, his eyes close, body soft as a kitten in Grindelwald’s arms.  And the trembling hand which takes the last of his strength to lift, curling into a Grindelwald’s hair and giving a tiny tug – closer.

Closer, take my soul.  Closer, take my life.  Closer, please, take me.

And Grindelwald does.
