Chapter 39
Dear S
Owls would look incredibly odd, people would wonder what the heck was happening plus it might give us away and I want to wait till our library meeting to meet you. I suggest that we use paper planes, like ministry interdepartmental memo's the charm is in The Standard Book of Spells (Grade 1) page 456. I'm glad you like my plan apart from the 'owls'.
So its just your uncle who wants the divorce? Do you know what grounds he wants one on as I read a book once that said something along the lines of 'for a divorce to be legal and accepted within the magical world one partner either has to have particular grounds for a divorce (see page 75 for accepted grounds and evidence in proving these grounds) or both partners must agree on the divorce' so your uncle must have grounds and supporting evidence if your aunt doesn't want the divorce and the court can pick up cohesion spells so your uncle can't force your aunt.
I was brought up not to judge (my family doesn't always keep to this but still) so it doesn't matter what your name is or what you look like or even what others think about you, only your personality and who you truly are inside matter to me but I really am not as amazing as you make out. Also I just want to help people (which is also to do with my up bringing) so that doesn't make me amazing either. By the way the once is over now so I will tell you that I'm not amazing and won't believe you saying it now because I know its not really true, your just being nice, but thanks anyway.
S I absolutely promise, I can give you the family promise if you like, be warned thought it is a bit odd 'I solemnly swear that I'm up to no good' is the promise and the conformation of the promise is 'mischief managed'. So mischief managed, I promise you won't be alone and I will always be your friend even if sometimes it seems like I may have broken that promise, R. Oh and you never know if you end up in the same house as either of the potter boys then I'm sure you'll become friends, I hear they are usually really quiet nice.
Trust you, luckily one of my 'uncles' (so a family friend) gave me one of these as a present so I know they work, please find included with this letter a fully working WWW rememberball with added features that tell you what you have forgotten, just in case. Hope this helps.
Yeah it was quite scary, but they learnt from it, I think anyway. Actually come to think of it I don't think we've used muggle transport since. The holiday was well worth it, my dad and grandad may disagree after the discussions my mother, grandmother and possibly one of my aunts and uncles had with them after the incident.
It strikes me that was a bad question for you, as despite what you say it appears you really don't like parts of yourself for some reason. Your name is easy is it your first name or surname? Either way there is a department in the ministry that deals with name changes, but surely your name isn't too bad is it? Don't do something stupid S I'm sure your name is lovely. Your hair is easily solved too. A muggle hair dye or a simple charm or concealment, believe me when I tell you that hair colour is a lot easier to change than the way it falls. Now your chin is a bit more difficult, I mean I'm sure there is a spell or something but perhaps you should leave it for now, maybe you'll grow into it. As my aunt once said 'how you look doesn't matter to the people who care about you', I'm assuming you can also apply that to names as well. My aunt told me that once when I was complaining about my hair, 'Course she's flawless so doesn't have to worry about how she looks but the point still counts. Also S don't worry about standing out you won't be the only one.
The answer to question 29 is yes, although I'm glad you brought it up because I thought that too but at least we aren't on our own as we have both read them.
Question 30 have you ever broken any bones?
My answer is yes but it was totally not my fault.
2 days, 9 hours, 57 minutes, and 42 seconds till the Hogwarts express leaves.
Love from R
