TO DAD
I miss you. I'm sorry about the fight. Things here have been okay. I'm doing good in all of my classes. One of our teachers is a Minotaur. His name is Professor Minos. He teaches Ancient Languages. I'm one of his favorites. He also likes the guy who sits next to me. His name is Baz. Baz is nice to me. He knows about me and he said that it's okay. He's also gay too. I don't think anyone knows. Baz's mom used to be headmistress here. She died fighting vampires. The magickal community here really doesn't like vampires. It's so different from back home. Did you know magicians here don't mingle with Normals? If they ever found out I had a Normal dad I'd be done for hahaha.
My roommate Agatha's got a few Normal friends. I think she wishes she was a Normal sometimes. She hates magic. Which is kinda funny cause her boyfriend is the "Chosen One", Simon Snow. Simon's like a bottomless well of magic. Agatha gets sick sometimes because of it. He's just like any other guy, but he's got so much magic that it's insane. He's not good at using it though. He's got speech problems like me. Actually, Simon's a lot like me. We could almost pass as brothers. We probably could pass as brothers. Simon's a cool dude. I think he just needs to find a way to use his magic that works for him. He's gotta learn how to limit what he puts into it. You remember when I told you what using magic was like for me? Like how it's this faucet that I turn on? For Simon, it's like a stick of dynamite with the world's shortest wick. He doesn't know how to use just a little bit. He turns it on and explodes. Apparently literally. Everyone around here calls it "going off". Like a bomb. Baz once led him into the woods to a chimera, and tried to help him turn on his magic. Next thing he knew, Simon exploded right next to him and singed off his eyebrows. Baz has nice eyebrows. It'd be a downright shame for him to lose them.
Anyways, how're you? How's the new place? Neighbors treating you well? I love you.
Your son,
Dylan
