Dear Renee,

Hey! How are things back at Hogwarts? It was strange not getting on the Hogwarts Express this year...I walked Albus and Lily, though, and I saw you on the platform but didn't get a chance to say hi, so I figured I would send you an owl! I hope things are well at school and you're getting settled in. Just know that even if I'm not physically there, I'm always here for you if you need anything. Given the climate, I'd rather you know that now...just in case.

On a lighter note, you should definitely send me some biscuits from the kitchens. Mum can cook but breads tend to get a little..overdone if you know what I mean.

James

Dear James,

Oh man! Things are going great! I can't wait for classes to actually get good! Thank you for writing me though, I feel like the summer just wasn't long enough. Sadly, I can't spend hours writing this and tell you everything that has been going, but things are good! Of course, McGonagall is missing... I don't really know much on that, but I know it isn't a good sign. Here's to hoping all hell doesn't break loose.

Thanks for that... And remember, if you need anything, I'm just an owl away, James! Be safe... okay? I don't need to hear about you in the Daily Profit or anything..

Ah, but of course. I'm just sitting here in the hall over lunch, so I'll send some with this owl. I think a Slytherin across from me is thinking I'm packing it in... I'm not fat, am I??? Well, nonetheless! Here are some Biscuits!

With Love and Hugs,
Your Friend Renee!

Dear Renee,

Awesome, I'm glad to hear it! And of course - we're friends, right? I can owl you anytime I want...though, don't expect an owl in the middle of the night. I'm not that cruel! I know...it's sad about McGonagall. Dad and her were good friends and he's in a right state about it. I hope they find her soon - and alive, at that.

Thanks Ren, I'll remember that. That means a lot.

And thanks for the biscuits...but I'm pretty sure the owl tried to eat one. Ah well. Still, they're delicious, so thanks! And you are definitely NOT fat Ren, by any means! Hah.

How's Hagrid holding up? I know he and McGonagall were good friends too. Can you tell him I said hello? If you have the time of course - I know how start of term can be!

Dear James,

Of course we are friends! What people kiss, make things awkward, then laugh and not become friends. Psh.. That's me making fun of you, by the way. Oh, and I'm up pretty late, send an owl whenever, I'm sure there will be times you may have to, don't worry, I'm here. As for me being fat, thank you. I'm glad it's not just me who thinks I'm not.

Yeah... Me too.. She is pretty much the best thing to ever happen to Hogwarts, and it is just killing me being so clueless. I mean, I don't cry at much, so I can stay strong for others, but I'm not sure what else I can do. Not here anyway.

Anytime!

Oh.. He's doing as good as anyone would expect.. The poor guy. I think some of the Weasleys are comforting him. You've got a crazy family, you know that? Wonderful, but crazy. I'll peek my head in on him soon enough, and I'll let him know, James. Remember.. Stay safe, okay? And good! I was stared at funny for taking so many. Not like they won't just reappear, but still. Write soon!

With Hugs and Love,
Your Friend Renee!
