Neville,
Do you stock Gillyweed in large amounts? You would be a life-saver if you do. I am fairly certain I would drown without it.
How have you been?
Luna~
Draco,
Please send Nous away when you get this? She has other letters to take and she is easily distracted as it is.
I'm certain I had more to say.
Luna~
PS. Thank you for the
squeaky mouse. It is still keeping her amused. I would have written back but most of my time is now spent in lakes.
PPS. Would Mrs Malfoy like any more books for the library? Many of mine are specialised, but I don't need them.
Dean,
What are you up to? Sending owls to a neighbour is like sending owls to the Gryffindor Tower.
Luna~
Hermione,
If this goes to Draco's apartment, can you chase Nous away again? Deliveries do not include Lucifer.
How have you been?
Luna~
Harry,
How are you? I'm not very good at writing so many letters. I have inky fingers.
Luna~
Luna sat back and frowned momentarily at the letters in front of her. All of them came with inky fingerprints as she had opted to fold them neatly after the ink had gotten everywhere. This was generally why Luna didn't write letters unless they were prompted by someone else. But she was certain she had more friends than that. Some she had missed out on purpose -- just in case they were busy -- and others because writing to them was not an option. Still. The little pile looked rather sad, though she concluded that was because she had been neglecting them. Not the letters, the friends.
She watched her little Burrowing Owl grasp the first letter and set off, knowing full well that the letters were neither large nor heavy and that Nous was completely capable of carrying more than one at a time.
But really, to be honest, she rather needed a sofa.
