Dear Mother,

Would it be possible for you to send Volumes 16, 17, 20 and 22 of Toujours Pur to me? Professor Binns told blatant lies! made some rather defamatory statements today in my History of Magic class, and I would like to hex him into oblivion if he weren't already dead! refute his claims. I know that is a heavy load for Noctua to carry; ( Read more... )

Dear Mother,

Today was my first visit to Hogsmeade and I must tell you, I was pleasantly surprised. I was expecting it to be shabby and unsuitable (and parts of it were. Of course, I didn't go to those places!) but it was very nice. Mr Pringle, our caretaker, was extremely rude about making sure all our permission forms were in proper order. He ( Read more... )

Dear Father,

The letter you sent was read outdoors as per your instructions.

I’m sorry if you felt that my writing to Uncle Arcturus because I was worried about you was going behind your back, but I didn’t mean it like that. I am worried about you and since you didn’t say anything over the holidays, I thought Uncle might be able to tell me what ( Read more... )

Dear Uncle Arcturus,

Forgive me for writing to you like this. I know how busy you are. I'm worried about Father. I noticed during the holidays that he seemed very distracted. Well actually, I noticed that he wasn't there for most of time; just Christmas and Boxing Day. And when he was there he seemed more distant then usual. At Christmas dinner, ( Read more... )

Dear Mr Sherrinford

I read your latest book Ancient Curses, Modern Times and I must admit I found it disappointing. I realise that a book for general (rather then scholarly) consumption will treat some matters lightly, but the overall superficiality surprised me. I was especially unhappy ( Read more... )

Dear Kali,

How are you? I haven't seen you in ages! Is business going well? I do hope so. We had such marvelous times with you at Ravenscroft. Do you remember how we scared Andromeda when we told her there was a ghost dog roaming the moors and if she went outside at night, she'd be eaten up? And then ( Read more... )

Dear Father,

Now that the fiasco of the beginning of the year is behind us, I have some rather amusing news for you. I don't know if you remember; but at the beginning of 6th year all students have a 'Career Advice' meeting with their Heads of House. I know you think Slughorn is a toady and a fool, but I can't avoid seeing him. He makes my skin ( Read more... )

MOTHER!

I have NEVER been so embarrassed in my whole life! My hand is shaking so badly I can hardly write! To had to have just SAT there while my OWN SISTER was sorted into RAVENCLAW! I almost fainted! Thank goodness Malandra and Artemis were there. I almost fell off the bench, I was so distraught! I warned you when Andromeda was 6 that I thought ( Read more... )
