Hi,
I know it's been a while...but it's never too late to catch up?
I was looking through some stuff and I found some old letters, so I just figured it'll be nice to talk to you again.

How's life at the University?

Well, hello Tingirl. It's like, so great to hear from ya...even though you're not actually talking and well y'know. I think y'know what I mean. Heard about the messed up stuff that went down at ol' Hogwarts, weird messed up shit. Uni's okay I guess...people are still convinced I'm like this mad scientist thing, man...reputations are hard to break. And I've been working with these sweet plants man, they have teeth and it's kinda scary buttt yeah. How are you doing Rin Tin Flower Lady?

Yeah, I guess it's pretty messed up.
I mean, no one really knew this would happen.
I still can't believe it myself.

Mad scientist?
Well, they'll regret calling you that when you discover a solution to a deadly illness or problem, won't they?
And you were always far more creative than any of them.
What exactly do these plants do?

I'm...good, I guess.
Just struggling to catch up on some work.
Potions, History of Magic, etc.

Well, everything is gonna
be okay. You know it always is,
like that one person said: "This, too, shall pass."
Everyone is gonna pull together
and differences won't matter for a while.
As long as you're doing okay Tin Girl,
you can't get better until you come to terms.
I'm just glad Sterling is okay.

I suppose, I'm always gonna be weird.
Well, they're kinda like 'guard dogs' of a garden.
If someone or something nasty gets in there they er...
take care of 'em. Kinda creepy huh?
You'll be okay, I'm sure all the profs know
you're having a hard time.

Thanks, Gage.
You've always been more optimist than me.
And I'll be fine, as soon as the family pulls itself together.
I suppose I'll have to speak to my parents sooner or later.
But I'm hoping for later.
And Sterling?

You're not weird. You're just different than what they're used to.
Which, by the way, might be a good thing.
And yeah, I will be.
Just not the best time for NEWTs, you know?

Everybody deals with death differently, y'know?
Some people drink it away, some people
take stupid risks, and some people
just close up and shut off the world.
But life is like a song, all the best artists
in the world went through some personal
kind of pain and they did something to get
it out. Ya gotta exorcise all that sadness and
anger somehow, just do it safe okay?

My little brother, he's kind of a wallflower so it
doesn't surprise me that you dunno
who he is. Eesh, NEWTS well I wish
I could say it gets better at the Uni
but that would be a bald-faced lie.
Y'could always escape and come see me
'round the Hallows. There's tons of cool
shit going on, a festival is coming up.

Well, thank you for the concern.
But I think I can understand from their point of view.
It takes every bit of self control not to give in to the pain.
What wouldn't any of us give in order not to feel at all?
To turn off those emotions, even for a short moment?
But you're right. Besides, I've never been a firewhiskey kind of person.

I'm sure the University can't be that bad.
I'd take a year off, just to travel around, but I'm afraid that won't be possible.
I'm sure skipping a year of the University is on my parent's black list for us. Right up there with marriage and children.
But that's never really been my issue.

It's been a while since I've gone to a festival.
It sounds great, seeing that I've been meaning to take a trip to the Hallows.
But at this rate- Hogwarts will probably attach a human ankle monitor to every student.
