AN: I present to you chapter nine!

First contact with an HP canon contemporary character!

HP&PT are still not mine, but I am the one pulling the strings in this story.


"Dear Deputy Headmaster Dumbledore,

I have just received a letter from you inviting me to attend your school, Hogwarts. Considering that I live in Kinkan, a town in Germany recently freed from enchantment, I may be quite a few years late in answering, and I was wondering if the offer was still available, despite being older than your first-year students (as I am now fourteen years old).

Can I come to Hogwarts?

Sincerely,

Fakir Meyers"


"Dear Mr. Meyers,

I'm afraid I must inform you that you are quite right in your suspicions. Many years have passed since Professor Dumbledore became Headmaster, and the Deputy Head is I, Professor Minerva McGonagall. However, rest assured we will not dismiss you out of hand, as this is a unique situation, and I will personally come to assess you and your abilities. Please expect me within the week.

Yours sincerely,

Minerva McGonagall

Deputy Headmistress"


AN: I'm just going to clarify this now to avoid any confusion: Fakir doesn't actually know how old first-year students are supposed to be (not yet, at least). He knows, however, that Ahiru is not a first-year student because the letter Ahiru received was reminding her of the beginning of the new school year. If Hogwarts were to be inviting her for her first year, the letter would be informing Ahiru of her place at the school and the possibility of attending it.

See you next update!

Same duck-time, same duck-channel!
