Dear Mum and Dad,
The Sorting took so long! I got sorted into Gryffindor with Talley and James. Lily was put in Slytherin with Clara and Marco Snape. By the way, do you know any spells that can tell you the parentage of someone? Clara and Marco aren't sure who their real rather is; it might be Lucius Malfoy or Severus Snape. They really want to know. The only thing left to tell you is what happened on the train, besides meeting Clara and Marco. I asked Talley to be my girlfriend and she said yes! This is going to be a great year. Give my love to Marie, Frederick, my godparents and all my 'aunts and uncles.
All my love,
Sirius
Dear Mum and Dad,
Last night was horrible! I was Sorted into Slytherin! I wanted Gryffindor! I would have settled for Ravenclaw. At least I know Clara and Marco. I'm sure Sirius will ask you about the spell, so I don't need to. Sirius, James and Talley are all in Gryffindor. On the train, Sirius did something to make Talley cry, but somehow, when they came back in the compartment, they were holding hands and dating. Anyways, tell Fred and Ginny I love them. Oh, and tell Marie, Frederick and everyone else I love them and I miss them.
Love,
Lily
Dear Mum and Dad,
I'm sure either Lily or Sirius will tell you everything, so I'll keep it simple. I'm in Gryffindor with Talley and Sirius. Lily's in Slytherin with Clara and Marco. Clara is so pretty. I don't care if she's the daughter of Lucius Malfoy or Severus Snape. She's so sweet and kind to everyone. We're already friends, but hopefully we'll be closer by the end of the year. Give the letter to Marie now please. Hey Marie. I miss you so much baby girl. You're going to love it here. I can't wait to see you on the first break. Tell Remus I love him. Tell all the 'aunts and uncles' I love them too.
Love,
James
Hey Dad! Hey Mum!
Talley here. I was put in Gryffindor! I knew I would be. It was destiny. Poor Lily got put into Slytherin. At least she has two friends there. Don't worry, I'm not talking about Sirius and James. They're both in Gryffindor. I mean Clara and Marco Snape, well, they might be Snape's, or Malfoy. We're not sure and neither are they. But none of that matters. Well, it does, but not as much as this: Sirius asked me to be his girlfriend! No, I won't need the 'talk' I won't do anything until I feel like it, which isn't for a while. I love you and tell the little ones I love and miss them!
Love,
Talley
Dear Mama,
I was put into Slytherin. I also made friends. They're trying to find a spell that can tell me if Severus really is my father. I hope he is I've heard that he defied Voldemort and spied on him. That makes him an amazing person and he would have been a great father. I wish I could write him and tell him I love him. Anyway, there's this boy here. He's in the same year as me. He and his identical brother are in Gryffindor, but their triplet is in Slytherin with me. I think we're going to be great friends. I really hope James likes me as much as I like him. Anyway, I love you and I miss you!
Love,
Clara
Dear Father,
Things are going according to plan. I met the Black triplets. The oldest, Sirius, is dating Talley Shacklebolt. The other son, James, seems interested in my 'sister' Clara. The youngest, Lily, doesn't seem to like me, but if it is your wish, I can change that. There's no one else in our year she's interested in. I can hide my identity until you wish me to reveal it.
You have my loyalty,
Marco
