Hermione,
You'll be happy to pass on the news to Ronald that Rose was sorted into Slytherin this evening. She has at least one proud father, even if the other dies of stroke. Minerva informs me that my reputation is positively in tatters as I apparently was unable to stop beaming after Sorting her. I think she's finally lost her marbles, as I did no such thing. Albus was sorted to Gryffindor, which I'm sure will please his parents, and it may interest you to know that Draco's boy, Scorpius was sorted to Slytherin as well and already seems to be making friends with Rose.
Severus
P.S. Has Hugo's fever come down yet? If you need a break from him to get some rest yourself, I do not mind bringing him up to the castle for a few days, though I think a toddler on the Potion Master's hip will really send my reputation down the drain, but I shall endeavor to carry on for you, my dear.

Severus,
Thank you for convincing me to hand Hugo over, I desperately needed the sleep his absence has allowed me. And I went to tell Ron in person about Rose's sorting - you'll be pleased to hear he fainted in the middle of the Auror department. It was glorious. Try not to favor your Slytherin Princess too much, though I'm sure it will be an exercise in futility. How is Hugo doing?
Hermione

Mrs. Snape,
I'm sure Severus will deny this to his dying day, but I have found him and your son asleep together in the staff room three times this week. It is easily the most precious sight I have ever seen - fatherhood suits Severus so well. He mentioned at dinner last night that Henry has offered you the apothecary so he can retire, I'm so happy to hear all your hard work is paying off and I hope Hogwarts can continue to count on Highland Apothecary for it's potions supply needs. I'd be happy to have you up to the castle to discuss the contract any time you are free.
Headmistress McGonagall

Mum,
Can Scorpius come home with us for Christmas? His parents are going to be out of the country and he's going to stay at the castle otherwise. Please, please, please?
Love you,
Rose

P.S. Papa already said yes.

Hermione,
The children have opted against the train to London - I can't blame them, that would have been an exercise in absurdity. We will be home before lunch tomorrow and Rose has requested we take Scorpius skating while he's with us. I suggest we speak to the Potters about turning the garden at Grimmauld into an ice rink for Christmas, all the children would enjoy it and, more importantly, get them out from underfoot before dinner and presents.
Severus

Ginny,
I will pass on your compliments to Severus for the idea of an ice rink for the children. I was dreading all the possibilities of another Draco living in our house over the holiday's, but Scorpius is an absolute gentleman, everything his father wasn't in school. He and Rose are thick as thieves - is it bad that I'm already imagining wedding bells in their distant future? We'll see you on Christmas - is Ron really bringing his new girlfriend Harry's been talking about?
Hermione

GEORGE WEASLEY I CANNOT BELIEVE YOUR NERVE! THEY ARE CHILDREN! FIRST YEARS! HOW AM I GOING TO EXPLAIN SCORPIUS' HAIR TO DRACO, HMM? THEY WON'T EVEN LOOK AT EACH OTHER NOW! I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY WITH YOURSELF!

The howler shredded itself onto the table; George thunked his head onto the smooth wood - he still had two more red envelopes to open.

If my nuance and implications weren't very clear, the kids got into a batch of those soul mate chocolates George was talking about developing the first Christmas. Did you see all the noodling I did there with canon? I almost put Albus in Hufflepuff, but decided against it for reasons. And no, I hadn't contemplated any other's hair changes, though I suspect Teddy's would be permanent in that one spot and his partner's hair would change to match his, whatever it happened to be at the time because magic. : )
