July 31, 1996

Harry's 16th Birthday

Dear Harry,

I know there are times when I am very standoffish, but this is only because not many people have ever tried to understand me. Harry, you and Ginny did try to understand me, and I am forever grateful for this.

I understand the pain you feel for Sirius, how bad it must hurt, because, you must remember, I lost my mother. Harry, don't believe people when they say the pain will go away. It will not, years will pass, and the pain will only be dulled, it will never go away. You have lost the only parent you have ever known. The pain will never go away.

Harry, stay near Professor Lupin. He needs you, and you need him. You two need eachother, as you and Hermione do, for without eachother, things will fall apart.

Harry I see the way you, Ron, and Hermione are, how close you are. I understand no one will be able to break into the bond, to become the fourth member of the trio, but I do hope that Neville, Ginny, and I are friends to you, as you are a friend to us.

Harry, I know that you are a hero, the world's savior, but must you save everyone?

Love,

Luna


A/N: I know that was an extremely short letter, but I'm not very good with Luna's speaking. I understand her, because I view myself as being like her, strange, standoffish, teased, "loony", but I can't seem to get this letter right. Please review, and flames are welcomed and used to make this story better.
