One interesting plot idea could be a 'what if' scenario. What if Thomas and Newt got separated from the group early on in the maze? They would have to rely solely on each other for survival. Newt's knowledge of the Glade and Thomas's determination could create a really intense dynamic as they try to find their way back. They might face new and unknown threats in the maze that the others in the group haven't encountered yet.
One way to develop their relationship uniquely is by having them go through a series of challenges that test their loyalty to each other. Maybe they are accused of something they didn't do and have to prove their innocence together. In the process, they learn more about each other's strengths and weaknesses. Newt might see a more determined and fierce side of Thomas, and Thomas could see Newt's unwavering loyalty and sharp intellect in a new light.
One great 'Maze Runner Newt Fanfiction' is 'The Newt Chronicles'. It really delves deep into Newt's character, exploring his thoughts and feelings in a way that the movies and books might not have fully covered. It adds more layers to his personality and his relationships within the Glade.
Survival is also a big theme. They are in the middle of the maze, and they have to fight for their lives. So, in these fanfictions, Newt and the reader often work together to overcome the various threats in the maze. For example, dealing with the Grievers or finding a way out of the maze. This not only tests their physical strength but also their relationship.
I really like the fanfic 'Newt's Secret Admirer'. It has a really interesting plot where the reader is secretly in love with Newt and there are all these cute little moments as Newt slowly starts to realize his own feelings for the reader. It's full of heartwarming scenes.
Thomas is a great character to pair Newt with. Their friendship in the original story is strong and in fanfiction, it can be developed into something deeper like a brotherly bond that overcomes all the challenges in the Maze. Another good one is Minho. Minho's tough - guy attitude and Newt's more level - headed nature can create interesting dynamics.
The setting of the Maze Runner world needs to be well - described. The fanfic should make you feel like you're really in the maze, with its walls, the Grievers, and the sense of mystery. If the author can bring this world to life and then place Newt and the reader's relationship within it, it will be a great fanfic. Also, the dialogue should be believable, as if it could actually be something Newt or the reader would say.
The unique perspective of the OC. Since it's an original character, the writer can create someone with a distinct personality, backstory, and goals. When paired with Newt, it can lead to new and unexpected interactions. For example, an OC who is a brilliant scientist in the Maze Runner world can bring out different sides of Newt.
One popular theme is friendship. Newt's relationships with the other Gladers, like Thomas, are often explored. Another is survival, as they are in the dangerous Maze. Also, hope is a big theme. Despite the tough situation, Newt and the others keep hoping for a way out.
Yes, there are many. You can find some on popular fanfiction websites like FanFiction.net or Archive of Our Own. Just search for 'Newt Maze Runner love' and you'll get a variety of stories, from sweet and innocent romances to more complex and angsty ones.
