Summary
James Potter’s seventh year at Hogwarts is going to be the best year ever. Everything’s all lined up for an easy term: Remus’ furry little problem is well under control, Sirius is safe from his crazy family, and Lily’s finally agreed to date him.
It’s just... a little boring, maybe. A less adventurous year. James is sure he’ll get used to it.
That’s when he hears the rumor about Severus Snape.

Summary
At the end of first year, Harry pocketed the Philosopher's Stone- in a secret pocket that everyone else missed.
Now, two years later, Harry is in his third year, his friends are having the time of their lives in Hogsmeade, there's an escaped mass murderer running around, and Harry is going stir-crazy. Fortunately, the twins have a solution! Although- they're going to need something in return, and it needs to be good.
Good thing Harry kept that Stone, huh?
And then things go completely bat-shit crazy.
(featuring the Marauders vs 1993, an exhausted Professor Lupin, a bewildered Harry Potter, and an opportunistic Hermione Granger)

Signalling Theory: Blue Coat by obaewankenope (rexthranduil), rexthranduil
Fandom Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (Movies), Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

Summary
Aposematism in animals is designed to prevent attack. It doesn't always work, sometimes it's ineffective against some predators, sometimes it isn't. As a primary defence mechanism, Newt is a colourful individual with his blue coat and golden hair. His secondary defences aren't visible however and often are what surprise his opponents the most. Bright creatures tend to be very toxic to predators, but mammals like honey badgers are aggressively defensive. Newt is a Hufflepuff and the emblem of his house suits him well. Signalling theory tells you that Newt warns off predators and opponents with his colours, but when they don't take heed he'll show his claws and fight tooth-and-nail. It's what survivors do.
And Newt Scamander is definitely a survivor.
