Dear @philiplongbottom ,
I'm glad that people are asking you so much about it. That's great, Phil. It probably helps you feel more involved since you can't be here. Let's see... so far the Champions have just been working with their mentors waiting for the first task. Nothing super fancy is happening yet.
Yeah, it's going good. They're very good at music and they love it, so they are great and don't misbehave much. You know, Jayden, hah. Kidding. Anyway, I'm glad to be playing again too... it's nice. I'll try to get something ready to show you in these last 7 weeks.
I'm so sorry it took so long to write back. I don't want to lie to you. I'm having a hard time. I'm sorry. I promised I'd be fine. It's not you. I swear, I promise it's not because of you. It's other stuff. It's not you.
I'm always in your corner, of course, Phil. I'm always in your corner
(OOC: here there would be some tear splotches on the page, some smudges and stuffs)
Phil, I'm sorry about my last letter. I just hate looking at it. I want to rip it out. I'm not okay. I'm not okay. I'm not okay. I'm no
(OOC: Btw we combined IC OCT/NOV so that's why I'm allowed to skip so far ahead XD feel free to turn her in to her mum with this 'I'm not okay' thing. Like tell Hannah.)

Dear @lestrange, WEll I told all the people that the champions were just prepping, they weren't impressed with that answer. I think they are suspicious that I would hold information back from them for some reason. But oh well. I am glad that all the music people are working hard. They seem to do that. So many people who are in the musical arts work hard. I wonder how we could teach other people that kind of discipline. Hm. We can work on that problem when I come home in 6 weeks and 6 days. Wow only a month and a half left! It doesn't seem like it has been that long, but at the same time it feels like I have been here forever. So much can happen in such a short amount of time. Honestly, one thing that has happened to me is I have just realized that I love you even more. Being away from you is harder than I thought it would be. Andy, I love you. I mean that. I hope you can feel it even though you are on the other side of the world. I wish I could be there to wipe away your tears. They shouldn't have to travel across the world for me to see them. Next time one of us goes on a trip like this... can we just both go? How can I help you? How can I help you from so far away. I am so sorry you are feeling so awful. I don't care how long it takes for you to write back, just knowing that you will is what keeps me going. And don't worry about your last letter. It was honest, I want you to be honest with me. I told you, I want to know everything. The good and the bad. I love you Andy, nothing is going to change that. Nothing. You're in my corner, I'm in your's. That's how it works. I am here for you. I'm here. Love,
|

Dear @philiplongbottom,
Hey. I'm feeling better now. Talked to Susan and Madame McMillan. And to mum and dad. I think everything's going to be fine. I've got something to focus on, a favor for Susan, so I think that'll help. I'm sorry to have worried you. I'm getting better. I think.
Well, you'll have plenty to tell the Brazilian kids soon, I'm sure. The next task is mid November, so just a week or so.
Maybe I could teach you how to play something? Something like... the harmonica. In 6 weeks and 6 days. Didn't mean to write back the same day you did but, I wanted to.
It does feel like it's been forever, but time has gone by faster than I thought it would. You're right, though. So much can happen in a short amount of time. Maybe I'll be able to give you more details later but... things have happened. Not all bad, though. Better to talk about in person.
Don't worry about my tears, Phil. I can wipe them away myself. Promise.
It would be great to go on a trip together. Or just leave here forever.
Honesty isn't what you think it is. It's too brutal, Phil. I can't do that to you.
- Andromeda

@andromeda, I am glad you are helping Susan with something. Maybe that will take your mind off of whatever has been bothering you. I was talking to mom and she said you two and a good chat the other night. I know she loves it when you talk to her. Dad too. They love you. I wanna say almost of much as I do, but I don't know what a parent's love feels like yet. You would teach me? You realize how difficult a task that is right? I haven't ever played anything for a reason. I am a great listener. But if you are willing to put in the time I am willing to put in the effort. What should I play... Can you teach me the tuba?! That would be so cool! And don't worry about writing back the same day, If I could write you 50 times a day I would. Only 5 weeks and 6 days to go. Leave forever? Just run away from all of our problems? That does sound enticing sometimes, doesn't it? But it is always better to face your problems, then they don't have a hold over you anymore. But if you wanted to.. I would run away with you. We could go anywhere. Be anything. think about that. Honesty, even when it hurts, is always the best. But if you want to wait to tell me. Wait til I get back to tell me, then I understand. I miss you, Andy. I wish you were here with me. Love, forever, no matter what,

@philiplongbottom ,
Susan is one of my best friends, I'd do anything for her. Just like I would, would have, for Bay. Yeah, it's not really taking my mind off it but it's... making it easier, I guess. I don't know, let's talk about something else. Yeah, I talked to mum and dad. They were really helpful.
Of course I could teach you. Difficult isn't a problem. I think it'd be fun, and you'd look so cute playing an instrument!!! I don't know the tuba hahah! It'd have to be a string... Cello? Viola? Hmm... Violin as well? We could do some lovely duets either way.
5 weeks and 4 days!
I'd be anything you wanted me to be, Phil, as long as we're together. I'm glad you were able to go to Brazil, but when you get back you're not getting away from me again.
I do love you, too.
- Andy

@lestrange, Mom and dad do that, they are just helpful even when they aren't trying to be. It is disconcerting sometimes. Sometimes I don't even tell them something is wrong and they just... solve the problem, or at least tell me what a solution is. Oh, a string instrument. Well I think the bass is bigger than I am and that would attack my manhood or something. I would like playing duets with you... you can teach me the violin! We can play together all the time! Hey, can you play the guitar? We should learn that together, I mean if you don't already know it. It would be fun to do something like that together. 5 weeks and 1 day. Almost 4. We can do this. Almost done. If you can be anything I want you to be... I want you to be happy. Smile. Laugh. Play. Be the amazing girl I am only beginning to understand. I love you, Andy. I love you across the ocean, I love you across the sky, I love you past the moon, I love you to the edge of space. (And by the way, Andy, space never ends.) Love, OOC: Next gift, Moon flower, flowers every night and they give off a soft glow and sent that helps people fall asleep. The note says: "The moon was busy, so I found the next best thing."

@philiplongbottom,
It's not to have helpful parents. It's a new experience, for sure. They are very intuitive, I agree, but I think that comes from years of practice and heartache, you know? If that's the case then I'm sure we'll be a lot like them when we're older. Well, I can only hope that we will. Wouldn't that be great?
Hah! Your manhood! I laughed out loud reading that. You want to play the violin? I guess, I guess that could work... and no, I don't play the guitar. Zander could help us, maybe, if we wanted to. I'm not sure how I feel about not using a bow.
5 weeks and 6 days! Wow, so short! That is crazy. I can't even believe it.
I'm trying to be happy, Phil. Some days are easier than others. And you'll never understand me if I don't understand myself first. Maybe we can figure that out together?
Space is pretty infinite, isn't it?
Love,
Andy
(kk I'll make a note when she sees it and add it to one of her posts!)

Dear @lestrange, We have gone through some rough stuff haven't we? Well if we turn out half as good as mom and dad I think we will be on the right track. Maybe our kids will be having a similar conversation about us when they get older. I would love to be a fly on the wall to see that. Or maybe they'll write it down like we have and we can just read it. Glad I made you laugh . I only want to learn the violin if you want to teach me, if it.. attacks your manhood or something then I will just respect that and learn something else like the... vionlina? Is that another one? Maybe I could just learn the guitar and we can play duets like that! Violin and guitar duets. That would be nice. We are so close, 5 weeks and 3 days close, and yet so far away. I love it here, but I miss you like crazy. Hey, if you already understood yourself then I would be jealous. Sometimes I do something and am like "Why on earth did I do that?" We can figure this out together. That seems like a good plan. Then you can say "Phil, why did you do that?" and you would be much nicer to listen to than the voice in my head. I can be mean to myself sometimes. I love you to infinity and beyond. Space being infinite was kind of the point. Love,

My @philiplongbottom,
Yeah, well, I bet you'll be just like Neville. I hope our kids aren't having too similar of conversations to ours, though. Unless we adopt teenagers randomly, too. Now, that would be pretty crazy. I hope no one reads our book! It should be buried with the last one of us to die.
Oh shush, I'll teach you how to play the violin. Vionlina is not an instrument! Are you completely bonkers? Guitar would be fun, too, but it's not as... sophisticated. I mean, I'm sure you'd be great at it but I'm kind of stuck on the violin idea. Pleeeaaaase, can we try it?
5 weeks 3 days! I couldn't wait a whole day to write back, haha! I missed you. Heavens only knows how much. Okay, mum might know how much too. And my roommates my know... okay, I'm not very sneaky about it. May or may have stole one of your sweaters to sleep in.
Well, I'm glad I don't understand myself yet, then! That way we can have some fun. Granted, I have made some stupid decisions this semester, Phil, that make this 'getting to know myself' thing way more confusing. I may need your help on that. I would be nicer then the voice in your head and I'm sure you'd be nicer than the voice in mine.
I love the moon flower. How do you find all these amazing plants!?
Love, Love, Love, Love, Andy <:

My @lestrange, Sorry it took so long! I couldn't get to my book for a while... I may have accidentally set my bed on fire. I got this book on plants (big surprise there, right?) and it came with seeds. Anyway the seeds were labled and so I decided to just start planting them. As it turns out... one reacted very badly with water. I know, I know what you are thinking. "Phil why were you planting in you bed?" Sometimes I just gotta plant something, okay? Anyway, I watered it and it EXPLODED! It was crazy. One second it was in my hand, the next everything was on fire! Luckily, one of my roommates had his wand handy (mine was on the dresser), and the healing lady is amazing. My hand barely even hurts anymore and you can't see the scars very much, which is kind of a shame because they looked really cool. I also think they multiplied cause I keep finding them everywhere. And that is why I couldn't get to my book to write you back. Anyway... You are right. It would be really weird if they were having the same conversation. Let's not make it awkward for our kids. But I don't know about burying the book. They might like to read it, it could be fun to tell them stories about what we were really doing. Yes. I want to learn the violin with you and I want you to teach me and we will play beautiful duets until the neighbors start crying because of how beautiful they are (or how late it is and how awful I sound). 4 Weeks and 6 days. Just over a month left! And I am glad I am not the only one who is telling everyone how much I miss my... person? Other half? Love? All of the above? But... Why didn't I think to bring something of yours with me? You are lucky I don't need any sweaters down in Brazil. Actually, I would probablly die in a sweater. I am already sweating out more than I can drink nearly every day... and it is November! We can help each other get to know ourselves and drown out that little angry voice that tells you bad things. The moon flower... If I told you how I found these then I wouldn't be able to surprise you with anymore! Seriously, never ask a magician to reveal his secrets. (I think that is what some muggles say over here). I love you, Andromeda Lestrange. I love you. Love,

@philiplongbottom ,
It's okay, love. I was checking my book every twenty minutes but-
WHAT!? Babe! That is not okay! No fire. No, no fire. What the heck is wrong with you!? Trying to give me a heart attack. Geez. Planting in bed... you are one of the weirdest people I've ever met. I hope when we share a bed you leave some room for me with all those plants >.>
You have scars!? What am i going to do with you. It's okay, though. I have scars too. I got some glass in my hands and arms. IT looks pretty weird.
I'm glad the book is okay. Heavens, I'd day if it burned. The kids can read the book while we're alive but they're being buried with us. YOU HAVE NO SAY. :>
Oh, shush. You'll be wonderful at the violin. Plus, I can play louder than you.
4 weeks and 5 days! Haha. You can call me your... geez, that is kind of hard, isn't it? Maybe... Love is good. Or soulmate. Or lifeline.
That's a good one. Lifeline. :>
Stupid angry voices. Who needs them?
Come back, Phil. Come back. I miss you so much. SOOO MUCH. But I am glad things are going well herbology wise. I just missed your eyes. Your lips. Your hair. Your smile. Your hands. Your skin. Heck, I miss everything and I just want it all back. But I can wait.
I think. ;>
Love,
ANDY

My lifeline, @lestrange, I-- It is not like I meant to set it on fire! And besides, they wouldn't let me stay late in the greenhouse so where else was I supposed to plant it? You don't have to worry about too many plants taking over, when we share a bed I think I will have different priorities. I think the scars make me look, I don't know, experienced? Proof that I can do hard things and overcome them. Sometimes I just need a reminder of that. But when I do, I can always look at you. I befriended you, and let me tell you, that was hard work Hard and rewarding work. I wouldn't change it for the world. I wouldn't change you for all the flammable plants in the universe. Fine the book can be buried with us, or... we could wipe it clean and give it to another couple that we know will have an epic romance that deserves to be documented. Just an idea. But our kids would have to read it first. Maybe... 5 kids? I am going to have to take your word that I will be wonderful at it, cause as of now my only musical talent is singing so badly that I once made Jayden run into a wall. Seriously. This is gonna take some hard work. You might want to practice playing louder so you can drown me out. 4 weeks and 5 days... and 10 hours. I waited an hour. Guess 4 days was way to long to not talk to you. At least once a day, new goal. So long as nothing else gets set on fire I should be able to do it! Lifeline. Pull me back into your arms. Hold me until the world stops spinning. The intensity of my missing you seems to be growing. I mean, on a scale of one to ten, at the beginning of this letter it was like 11. Now? at least 25. We only have 4 weeks and 5 days and 9 hours and 56 minutes. We can do it. That is just over a month. Christmas time. I'll be home, you'll be there, we can sneak out to the greenhouse. Love,

My world, @philiplongbottom,
Geez, our letters are so cheesy I think that our children would choke to death reading them. I'm just saying, the three of them can read it first but then they're getting buried with us. Don't fight me on this, Philip. You will lose.
As for your bed, our bed, whatever, keep your head on straight. Don't catch anything else on fire and don't get distracted. You have things to do, Phil! Like school and stuff and not daydreaming about your beautiful girlfriend. (That's me.)
Scars... I have some scars, too, don't be too alarmed by them. I bet they look very handsome on you, Phil. Hey! That... is true. I was not a nice child. Still am not. I think I could use a little change... unlike you.
HAH! Jayden was just overreacting I'm sure. I'll drown you out if you're bad, don't worry. We can always drown out each others flaws, right?
4 weeks and 5 days and 6 hours. Sadly, I had to wait a little longer since you know I HAVE A LIFE. Hahahhaha, I'm kidding <3
Hey, I'll be holding you so tight when you get back that you'll be afraid of bursting. Seriously, I need some steadying as well. I'll only do it though if you promise to hold onto me, too. Stay positive. Make good choices. Believe in yourself and love me.
The Greenhouse? I'm there, as long as their is plenty of mistletoe.
I miss you more than the sun loves the moon, and they see each other even less than we do.
Love, Your Andy <3

My @lestrange, All I'm saying is that if we let the four of them read them, and then keep the book it could be used for years! Think about that, our love story would be around forever. (Not that it won't anyway, but still) I was just planting, and besides... telling me not to daydream about my gorgeous girlfriend is almost the same as telling me not to breathe. I may die. And that would be bad for you, me, and our love story book. I think I'll just keep on daydreaming, for all our sakes. Scars. There are too many of those. You don't deserve anymore. When I get home... Well if we stick together we can help each other not get any more scars. You were a difficult child. A beautiful and magnificent young woman. I showed some of the guys here your picture and none of them believed that you were my girlfriend. I am just trying to figure out how to prove to them that you are mine, and I'm yours. Especially since one of them is trying to set me up with his sister. Hey... maybe I should ask her to be my pen-pal Jayden was not overreacting. Seriously, Andy, I am awful. But I would practice for you.I wouldn't embarrass you in front of everyone we know. At least, not with music. 4 weeks and 4 days. I read your letter as you wrote it, but my roommates got angry at the light. And look at your self-control! Four hours! I am impressed. And I have a life. It is just back there with you. In December when I am back I'm going everywhere with you. And I'm not about to let go of you. Never. Lifeline isn't just a term for you to use. It's for me too. Stay positive. Check. Make good choices. Half check. Believe in myself. Check. Love you quadruple check. Oh it will be December... pretty sure the greenhouse will be chock full of the stuff. We might be stuck in there for a while...I'm making myself blush. Andromeda Lestrange, my best friend, I love you. I'll see you sooner than you think. Love, forever and ever,

Darling @philiplongbottom , Fine. Four. Compromise is good for a relationship, I hear. I'll think about the book thing. Not sure how we can compromise on that one, haha! Fine, you can daydream about me but only if I am happy and smiling and fabulous in all of your daydreams. Don't think of my tears, my frowns and my coldness. Don't dream about my heartaches and pain. Think of me as being happy, and I know that I will be. Hah, I deserve whatever comes to me. Don't worry, though, I'll protect you from anything. Anything. Even if it's me. Haha! They didn't believe I was your girlfriend? Too pretty for you? That's ridiculous, you're adorable. Plus, you don't need to prove anything. Just don't hang with that guys sister- OOOH, you're very sneaky! Pen-pal. -inster grumbling noises here- 4 weeks and 3 days. Forcing myself not to respond to face so we can savor it. We can be each others lifeline. That's the easiest way to make sure it's secure, isn't it? Staying positive and thinking of you is what I'm trying to do as well. You're my favorite person. And you bet your bottom dollar that we'll be stuck in that greenhouse for a while. I'm never letting you go. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you, Andy
