newt and alice are literally the Dark version of eliza and the fishman from the shape of water:

• a strange creature of suspicious origin being kept in a tank
• human character falls in love with the creature and takes it home
  
• the human and the creature establish nonverbal communication
• romantic music plays as this happens
• potentially-complicated interspecies sexytimes 
• the human’s best friend is a concerned old gay man
