Killian-
You're safe! Thank goodness! You stupid prick, I can't believe you made me worry so much! UGH!
I'm so glad to hear from you. You have no idea how much I was worried. No, I'm not sorry for going to Dumbledore. You're my friend, and you're important to me. I'd prefer it if you were safe, you great moron.
I'll play your little game, so long as you give me decent hints and that you really so let me know that you're still alive after a month or two.
Alright, what's been going on with me, then? Since you're being all mysterious and stuff, I'll have to tell you about my adventures. Not that I've had many at this point. It seems we've hit a dry spell (ha). Lily and I are still playing chess, but we have to write so many papers that we don't have a lot of time. James and Sirius are still around, but it seems like they aren't doing any homework. I can't blame them, really, but it's not exactly fair.
There was one adventure I went on. Students aren't supposed to be out after a certain time, but I hadn't made it back to the dormitory in time. I wasn't locked out, because the picture that covers our dorms was still awake, but I had been coming back from the kitchens and had a ton of food with me. The picture is of a Fat Lady, and she gave me a lecture that mum would have been proud of. I was just hungry, that's all!
Oh yeah, I can't remember if I've mentioned it, but the pictures move here! They have personalities and everything. They're so annoying sometimes! Other times, though, they're really helpful. I've gotten lost once or twice, and some of them have helped me find my way.
Alright, I'll let you alone for now. I have homework to finish, and I'm sure you've got more adventures to go on. Please be safe. I miss you.
Your first mate,
Emma
