Dear Uncle Archer,

The Yule Ball is in just a week! I am very excited. Are you coming? I heard all the IMPORTANT PEOPLE in the magical world are invited- and I can't imagine anybody more important than you are! Aurors do all the life saving. So all of you should have been invited. And if you weren't, you should crash the party, because I bet it's going to be lots of fun! And I'd love for you to see me in my dress.

Mum took me shopping at Hogsmeade weekend. She got me a really pretty Hufflepuff colored dress to wear. And shoes and stuff to match. I'm going to be the prettiest Hufflepuff girl at the ball!

I've even got a date! I'm very nearly sixteen, after all, so I couldn't go to the Yule Ball without one. I think you'd like him very much. His name is Zel Trumble. He's a sixth year and he's the Hufflepuff Prefect. Which means he's really smart and responsible and nice and all those things that you said I should like in a boy. Instead of just going for good looks. You'd be proud! He's nothing like Dax.

Do you promise I will get to see you for Christmas? Aunt Leola says that she is afraid you won't come because she didn't invite your girlfriend. Except- she said a much meaner word instead of girlfriend, and I don't want to repeat it. Because you wouldn't like it.

Love,

Winifred

P.S. Just so you don't find out from anyone else- my Yule Ball date is a werewolf.

P.P.S. I'm going to tame him- just like they do in romance novels!

P.P.P.S. Please don't tell my mum!

I generally try and avoid telling you what you can and cannot do; giving you ultimatums coming to your events and embarrassing you... giving unasked advice - but you CANNOT tame a werewolf. 

I repeat: You cannot tame a werewolf. No matter what those ridiculous books tell you - one bite... Winnie. Just no.

If the Yule Ball is anywhere near a full moon, I will personally make my way to Hogwarts and put him in a dungeon cell myself. 

He best be careful with you.






With that out of the way. 

Make sure you take photos for your mother and aunt.  They'll be angry if you don't. 

Of course she did.  I mean, I will see you at Christmas.  I can't promise for very long though.

-Uncle Archer

PS.  Remember what I said.  Pass along the message or I'll come and embarrass you in front of all of your friends.

Dear Uncle Archer,

YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO BE MAD AT ME. It's bad enough my friends aren't excited for me! Don't be a meaniebutt like they are. He's a really nice boy. And he's a Prefect! They couldn't let a werewolf be a prefect if he was bad. Besides! The Yule Ball isn't anywhere near a full moon so I will be PERFECTLY SAFE.

Besides. Cy says that what Zel needs is a spine and not to be tamed. And I'm not dumb enough to try pet him when he's all furry. I'm not STUPID.

But anyway.

I thought you'd like to know that my spell casting is getting a lot better. I've been tutoring with a Ravenclaw girl, and I even went to a Charms extra credit lesson to do some more practicing. I think I might have actually passed a couple of my mid-terms. My grades are getting better. But they're still not good yet. Cause I just got to doing third year spells. So I'm still really behind. But it's a lot better than it used to be!

Please don't worry about me. I can take care of myself.

I love you!

-Freddie

P.S. I will take lots of pictures. I will send one to you, too.

P.P.S. Do you know any spells to make me taller? Zel is like seven feet tall. And mum wouldn't let me get high heels.
