Summary

Written in response to

the prompt:

“In the novelisation, it's mentioned that Newt used to be in a band called the Black Velvet Rabbits. So let's have it come back to haunt him- former fans, former rivals, a CD turning up, whatever.

“I'm hoping for Hermann being a fan and completely being turned off when he actually meets Newt for the first time but that's optional. Ship also optional.”

Recommended listening: Mission of Burma, Vs., Track 11, “Fun World”. The sound quality is pretty poor, but it’s kind of awesome to watch the reuinited band tear this one up 30 years after it was initially recorded. Also, the way the guitarist and bass player lean into and out of the mics in sync at the end is totally adorable.

And because I think the lyrics to “Fun World” are horribly appropriate for Newt, in my head it’s the opening track on one of the CDs Newt finds or maybe even the B-side of the crucial single.
