A/N: I stole the name Idris from my amazing, awesome, fantastic, lovely, sweet, forgiving, kind, enthusiastic, encouraging (I could come up with more adjectives, but I won't bore you) friend Katy/Bad Mum, whom I love to the ends of the Earth and back! A zillion thank you's! Si Weasley is the only child of Charlie Weasley, who lives in Romania. Remember, this is AU/SU—don't like, don't read.

Common Room
"Uncle Charlie sent Si a letter!"
"Really? What's it say?" Weasleys streaking through the Common Room like they own the place—which they do.
"Chill, guys." Center of attention, only child of the children's favorite uncle—Si simply grins.
"What's it say?"
"I'll read it."
"Dear Si and Cousins, because I know this is being read aloud,
How are you, honey? I miss you so much—why couldn't you have just been tutored by your mother? Just kidding. I know you couldn't live without Hogwarts.
Romania is the same as always. Actually, Ren was attacked by a dragon yesterday. It was a fierce one, and she's still recovering. Still, you know Ren—she's resilient. She'll be okay—don't worry.
Hah. Like you'd worry. You don't believe in worrying, do you?
You know how Mum wanted to surprise Uncle Idris for his birthday? Well, we'll take you out of school and visit him that day. The party will be splendid, but Mum wants your permission.
Now, pass this on to your nosy cousins: I love them all, and miss them, and I'll see them come Summer!
Love,
Dad."
Clapping. Laughing appreciatively. Someone stands and shouts, "Hurrah for the Weasleys, for ruling the Common Room and Romania!"
More laughter. Hugs to the letter-receiver, who is always regarded as older and better—especially because Uncle Charlie is her dad.
Just another Weasley Common Room Meeting.
Just another family experience.
