Hiya D!

How are you doing? I asked my mum and dad about Christmas and they said it's not a problem!

All the kids are staying at our grandparents's house during the break, our parents will only be there for Christmas.

Be prepared for a LOT of Weasleys. Hope you don't mind!

love, Rox.

Hola Diane.

Haven't written in a while, I'm sorry. I've been busy at Mahoutokoro (wizarding school of Japan), lots of cool stuff here. Did you know their cloaks change colour based on the magical experience they have?

Anyway, I do miss you and wish we could meet up soon. (say hi to the others for me!)

Much love, Ezequiel.

Diane read the letters over one more time before stuffing them under her pillowcase.

The messages they contained were not monumental or particularly notable, but Diane still couldn't believe she had actual friends that wrote to her and everything.

She'd always been more of a lonely child. When she was much younger and unaware of her magical ability, her fellow peers wouldn't come near her.

There had been a rumour going around that she could crush objects with her mind, that you should definitely steer clear of Daft Diane.

All of this just because she had crumpled a can of coke solely by looking at it. She hadn't been able to help herself, the boys at her school would always try to catch squirrels and do terrible things to them.

That particular day, her temper had gotten the best of her. At least the students didn't dare come near the poor squirrels again.

she'd all blamed it on the wind in that moment. Seemed silly, looking back at it now.

Lloyd met her at the bottom of the stairs in the Slytherin common room and walked her to breakfast. The boy had grown a lot over the summer, and was now finally taller than Roxanne. He'd even outgrown the twins by a few inches, who were already fairly tall themselves.

The only one who didn't seem to be gaining much height, was Saoirse. Her body changed and so did her face, but her height stayed much the same to that in second grade. Diane found this very endearing.
