Newta

Newta is the het ship between Newt and Leta from the Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them fandom.

Canon
Newt and Leta both started at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1908. The two met during their Hogwarts years and bonded over their shared love of magical creatures and their outsider status.

In 1913, Leta's experiment involving a Jarvey went wrong, endangering the life of another student. Rather than seeing his good friend expelled, Newt took the blame, causing him getting expelled instead.

Newt remained in love with Leta for many years, keeping a framed photograph of her in his suitcase. In 1926, when Queenie Goldstein asked Newt about it, she used Legilimency on him to determine that Leta was a "taker" while Newt needed a "giver". When Newt was about to leave New York, Tina brought up Leta Lestrange, asking if she liked to read. Newt responded by saying that he did not know what she was up to anymore.

At some point before 1927, Leta got engaged to Newt's older brother, Theseus Scamander.

Fanon
On AO3, the ship is the most written romantic ship for Leta, but slightly less popular than the friendship version of Newta. The ship is less popular than Newtina.
