Chapter Four: Letters Home
Dearest Daddies (and Abi),
We got off to Hogwarts just fine so you can stop worrying (that means you too Daddy Padfoot, I know you're worrying) the sorting went well and I am a proud new member of Slytherin...got you right, Daddy Moony is Daddy Padfoot still breathing? I'm only kidding, Gryffindor pride and all that jazz.
Fathers I am very sorry for our sister's very cruel joke, I too hope that Messer Padfoot is among the living still, the world would be such a dull place without him. I myself am now a proud red and gold lion, ah well my lesser brother wishes a word with you, tata.
Dad 1 and Dad 2 I do believe that Hogwarts is domed with us here, what with Prongs Jr, Freddie and Beanie already causing mayhem but alas we too must add our own brand of mischief to this noble place of learning (promise not to get caught we do Dad Padfoot), terribly sorry for that, my idiot of a brother doesn't seem to know how to take turns. (I do so!). See? Idiot! (Stop calling me an idiot!).
They're both idiots and I don't know how I put up with them, well it is getting late and we have classes for the first time tomorrow...so I say now good night and good bye, I Love you guys.
Yes, yes, much love to you all.
Oh alright, Stella is making me say that I love you...I guess I do.
Estella, Orion & Seath

Dear Papa,
I know you will not rest easy until I have assured you that the train, it occupants, especially myself arrived safely. Rest assured I am here and in one piece, as is my dolt of a brother whom we both know is inconsiderate and will unlikely write you.
I am very glad to be back and am nicely settled into my dorm room once more. Well I best be off to bed, I shall write you again at the end of the week.
Your son,
Scorpius
P.S Al says "Hi"
...
Daddy!
I'm in Gryffindor, so are Stella, Sea, Ry and Hugo...you should have seen the look on Auntie Min's face (I mean Professor McGonagall) I don't think she was too pleased with having us all in her house, I think that because she already has Jamie, Freddie, Beanie and even Louis that she's probably wondering why someone else could have gotten the new Marauders, maybe Uncle Sev (um, Professor Snape) gah remembering to call them all Professor is going to be hard.
I promise not to give her too hard a time and I'll try to real the others in too. We have Vi and Lilac's sister Lizzy in our dorm and Milly Vane-McLaggen too, plus another girl I don't know called Kadence who is just like them. But Stella and I made a new friend, her name is Daisy and she is really great and she's a new Gryffindor...but we met her on the train and I think we would have been friends even if she was in another house.
Al told me to let you know that he's fine before I went up to bed, and Ev and Jamie said to let you know they'll write you later in the week. Al is going to write Mum and Mama and I got to do you, isn't that great?
Love always,
Lily

Mum &Mama
I know I promised you a quick update once I arrived. I'm sure you'll hear but all of our lot are Lions this time round and I know Auntie Min is not the most pleased person about it, especially the Lupin-Black triplets, I think she would have been fine with just our Lil, she isn't much trouble without Stella and Hugo by her side.
Well kiss the littlies for me and I'll write later. Jamie and Lil send their love, Lil is writing Dad and Jamie opted out this time, but I'll bully him into writing to both you two and Dad later this week. Please check in on Dad and the baby, he's been rather down since that bastard left him.
Well Much love and such
Albus Severus,
PS oh and Scorpius sends his greetings too.
...
Ma and your man friend,
Hope you are well, Dad said I would be able to see you over the Christmas break, unsupervised and everything. I got back to school fine, my little sister Lily is a new Gryffindor and I am of course the new quidditch captain for our Lions.
Bye for now,
Ev.
...
Dear our Parental Units,
All have arrived at Hogwarts safely and as of yet Beanie and I have not caused trouble (I know Mum, you must be proud and Dad and Uncles, we will not disappoint you, give us time) well anyway, Beanie, Roxie, Jordgi and all the cousins send greetings and love, plus promises of weekly owls (from Roxie and Jordgi anyways).
Love from your favourite,
Freddie (and I guess Beanie watched me write it too)
...
A/N: yeah, again not the best writing but I am trying to get a better sense of each of the characters and how the fit in and interact with each other. Let me know what you think.
