are you jewish?
Yes, actually, I am! Queenie and I were raised Jewish—even after our parents passed away, we continued to practice the traditions they taught us.
New York’s got lots of Jewish No-Majs, but only a few Jewish Wizarding families, so we all sorta stick together. I can even name ‘em all off the top of my head—the Rosenbergs, the Levitons, the Kupritzes, and the Silvermans!
Oh, and us. Obviously.
Hi, Miss Goldstein. Hope you have a day. I‘m just wondering does it ever bother you for being so much taller than most girls and even a lot of men? Good thing Mr Scamander is quite tall himself right?*smirk*
I’ll admit, when I was at Ilvermorny, it bothered me. But when I started my career as an Auror, my height turned out to be a serious advantage. Give most men a good stare-down, and they’ll let you walk all over ‘em. (Works for criminals and coworkers.)
As for Mr. Scamander—I don’t see what he’s got to do with it.
Can you discribe your reaction when you read that magazin? You know... about newt and leta?
Could I? Yes. Will I? No.
What do you miss most about London?
Well, when I was there, there was significantly less distance between myself and...well, and certain people whose company I, um, enjoy.
Do you still keep in contact with Newt? I know your with Achilles, and theres not much of a point to the two of you still writing regularly...but are you still in touch?
What does Achilles have to do with Mr. Scamander’s correspondence?
Are you and Achilles Tolliver still dating? If so, why?
I’m not even gonna answer that. And don’t think you can go ‘round asking him the same question—he’s not gonna be any more forthcoming than I am.
So, Ms Goldstein, have you talked to Mr Scamander?
Um. You mean, ever? Yes. Yes, I have.
Would you quit your job at MACUSA in New York and become an Auror at the British Ministry of Magic? I could see you and Theseus Scamander working really well together there!
Well. While I’m fond of Theseus Scamander, and we do work well together, I can’t imagine quitting my job and moving to England just to work with him. I fought long and hard for thus job—I’m not about to give it up for slightly-better coworkers.
Tina, have you met Professor Minerva McGonagall at Hogwarts after Grindelwald’s rally? Did Newt or Mr. Dumbledore introduce you to her? What did you think of her?
I did! She’s incredible–a real inspiration. I gotta say, between her and President Picquery, I’m not sure who I admire more.
So, are you still in London?
I’m not. I’ve gone back to New York for the time being, as there’s nothing much to go on in London. We don’t have any new leads in Grindelwald’s case, so the M.o.M. politely asked me to return to NYC. The apartment’s lonely without Queenie.
whats your favorite color?
Well, somebody once told me I look mighty nice in blue.
What thing do you most want to know about your future?
Honestly? I know it’s not the most selfless thing to want to know—given the state of things, y’know, but, well...I’d like to know about my sister.
The Aurors
Some more Tina for you because you can never have enough of her on your timeline
my blog did a thing
Tina, come on! Newt totally likes you, do you like him back? I mean, Newt carrys your photo
Of course I like him! I mean, sure, he can be a little unrealiable, and completely unpredictable, but you can’t go through somethin’ like we did without becoming friends.
