A Little Chocolate Never Hurt Anyone…
October
Sir, I know you're a werewolf. Please don't worry sorry – nobody told me, and I have told nobody - I just figured it out for myself. And before you can say things, I don't think bad of you for it. The man is not defined by the wolf; rather the wolf is defined by the man.

You called me sir – do I teach you? Your words are kind, but I am afraid that I doubt them. Please stop sending me chocolate.

But sir! You love chocolate! Fine, if you object so much I'll send you fudge. And yes, you teach me. Why else would I keep my identity hidden? And my words are true, you are just too stubborn and blinded by self-hate to accept that you are a wonderful person!

You're a student! You shouldn't be sending me gifts! What are you, a sixth year? Seventh year? I think you're female – boys are not usually filled with such compassion. However, I apologise if you are male. But you're still wrong! I'm not stubborn – I am honest. I'm a realist. I'm a monster, I've accepted this.

I don't believe that there is a rule preventing students from sending professors food, sir. And you flatter me! I am neither a sixth year nor a seventh year. You'll know me when you guess my year or my House. I want you to, but not yet. I really like you, Professor Lupin, and you don't deserve any of the grief you give yourself. You are not a monster.

I'm sure you're a good student, with good intentions, and to save us both the embarrassment I will not try and find you. However, you cannot declare that you like me in such a… a manner! I am your professor, and a werewolf. I thank you greatly for the kindness you have shown towards me, but I think it would be wise to end our communications. Thank you once more for all you have done. Goodbye.
Professor Remus Lupin.

I am a good student. Well, I try to be. And I was only being honest. You aren't serious about stopping writing, are you? Please say you'll keep writing back.

Happy Halloween, sir. Enjoy the toffee bats – they fly!
