Summary
"The disgust towards himself alone was enough to make him nauseous. After everything that’d happened, all those days he’d locked himself away from her in the depths of his suitcase, he’d been unable to come up with the right words to comfort her. Instead, he’d been rotting away in self-pity, in this deeply rooted sadness that made him lightheaded, that blasted rage through his veins but was quickly replaced by guilt: guilt that he couldn’t save Leta, that he couldn’t stop Queenie from joining Grindelwald, couldn’t help Credence, couldn’t be a true friend to Jacob, couldn’t comfort the woman he loved, couldn’t be a shadow of the brother he was supposed to be; guilt that he was alive while Leta was dead and Queenie was away from home."
After Leta's death and Queenie joining Grindelwald, Newt invites Tina to stay at his house, unable to bear the thought of her alone in New York. They intend to help each other overcome their grief, but Newt's brokeness is eating him whole, and he salvages for any solution that he can find. Will they be able to save each other, or will he drown in his guilt?

Summary
Christmas Eve, New York, 1981.
Franklin Shepard, the worldwide known composer, is broken. In an attempt to escape the knot choking his throat, he stumbles across his first ever apartment - the walls that shelter music notes and dreams shared amongst old friends in 1957. The same walls that supported his dreams are to be demolished in two days. He doesn't control his legs when he steps into the familiar rooftop. A silent force is moving him, his heart's plea at freedom. What Frank least expects to find there, in the known space seemingly intact by Time's touch, is the truth. And it swallows him whole.
Or, Frank realizes what went wrong in his long-lost friendship, when he is faced with a sudden encounter.

Summary
Some animals were bad seeds… Some animals weren’t safe and needed to be put down… Or caged. But that didn't mean you couldn’t try to understand them, to find out what triggered them, to prevent them from becoming vicious in the first place.
Holden got attacked during an interview and, in shock and shame, tried to hide it.

Summary
"So, he changes the way he approaches these interviews. His confidence has taken blow after blow the last year and a half, and it’s almost like the fight in him dissipated. He leaves the shop talk, the bullshitting, the ignorance, the directing to Bill; Holden prefers to take notes now instead. He stays mostly silent. No one seems to like it much when he talks anyway."
