Order Only Message for Arista Selwyn
Sep. 10th, 2013 10:36 pmMrs Longbottom, could you share a message with Arista for me, please?
Dear Arista,
I was just talking with someone here about all the kittens that we've had at Hogwarts since last spring and how they've grown up a lot, and it made me think that I never wrote you back after your last owl. I guess I was packing to leave for CCF and didn't really have time, but then I got back and didn't have time then before leaving for school. It's been sort of busy for a while, I guess!
Anywiz, now I'm back at school and all I've got is homework and lessons and more homework, so that means I've got loads of time for letters again! Receiving them, too!
I hope you're having lessons where you are, too. Are you learning anything really nift?
Is Satsuma helping you study the way he always helped me? I remember he always liked to lie right on top of whatever book I was meant to be reading. Or wanted to sit or sharpen his claws on whatever parchment I was trying to write. I bet those are still favourite things for him to do, yeah?
How's Hector? He's got over that cold he had when you wrote before, I hope? And you didn't catch it, did you? It really reeks to get sick in the summertime. What's autumn like where you are? You can already tell winter's on its way here in Scotland. I mean, the mornings are really chilly. And I always want a blanket on when I go to sleep. But that's Scotland for you. And this castle. I think the castle makes its own drafts just to amuse itself with how it makes us shiver.
I guess I don't have much to tell you. I just wanted to say I'm thinking about you, and it's always really nice to hear from you, so feel free to write me any time. But, um. Maybe you should have Mrs Longbottom copy out what you say here in the journals because it wouldn't be good if one of my dormitory mates found letters from you to me, y'know? It's not the same as it was during the summer.
Your friend,
Ron Weasley

Don't let her wind you up, Arista. Especially about Hector. He's going to come along. You'll see. And then you'll probably think he's aggravating because that's what brothers are for. That's what my sister, Ginny, would tell you. For sures.
And you're totally right about History, y'know? It seems like it should be dead interesting and then it always... isn't.
My friend Sally Anne knows something about aeroplanes. I think her grandfather used to fly them. You can ask her about it if we come visit you. I definitely want to come see where you live and meet all your friends and see the gardens there, especially the memorial one. And Mrs Longbottom says maybe over Christmas hols. I have to check with my mum, but I bet she'll say yes, and that would be nice, yeah? I could bring you and Satsuma your presents.
And that's not so far off. So take care and have a good term of lessons. Learn lots so you can tell me all about it!
Your friend,
Ron
