AN: Hey, as some of you may know from my other Author's Note - or not since no one reads it - I'm working on a collab story with 5 fanfiction authors. It's a Percy Jackson story, though, but I'm also announcing it here because I know some of you also like PJO. If that is the case, please go to our shared account LegendsofLit and read the profile for more info on our fic. It's not ready yet, and it's not posted - we'll start posting when we're halfway through - but we suggest putting the account on Author Alert because we may have some short oneshots leading up to the story and a possible Sneak Peek.

Sorry for the delay, haven't had much free time. Chapter 4 here!

Chapter 4: To Remus Lupin.

He made a list. Well, what else was he supposed to do? He had never been one for organization, but it was the only way to continue the letters. He had to know whose letter he was going to write next and he couldn't forget anyone important. So, a list.

According to the list, next one was Remus Lupin's. Moony. One of his father and godfather's best friends.

"Dear Lupin,

I'll take care of him. I promise, I will. Teddy will be like a son to me, I'll do the best I can to help raise him.

I wanted to thank you, for being the best Defence Against the Dark Arts professor I've ever had. Thank your for being there for me when I needed help, for teaching me the Patronus Charm, for protecting me, for telling me stories about my father and Sirius. Thank you for everything.

I'm sorry for saying what I said to you when you wanted to help Ron, Hermione and I on our mission. I regret it. Like Sirius, you were a father to me and I shouldn't have said that.

Thank you for making me Teddy's godfather. As I mentioned before, he'll be like a son to me.

I miss you, I really do. And I'm sorry you had to go. If I had realized what I had to do earlier, you could still be here right now.

Now that the Marauders are reunited again, I'm counting on you to keep mum safe from dad and Sirius' - especially Sirius - pranks. They always said you were the most decent Marauder.

Thank you again, for everything.

- Harry

P.S. On the bright side, I'm sure there aren't full moons wherever you are. Just remember, being a werewolf didn't stop any of us from loving you."

He folded the letter, after reading it over. Perhaps he should take writing classes, maybe they'd help him express himself better. Nah, he pushed the thought out of his mind. Remus and the others would still love him, no matter how badly he wrote.

"Ron!" he called, walking down the stairs, "I need Pig."

The letters will probably be shorter from now on, well, the chapters in general will.

God, this letter was awful. Really.
