Dear Teddy Lupin,
Hey, big boy. How are you doing lately? I hope you're doing amazing in Hufflepuff. You're so smart and kind just like your parents. I'm so proud of you, do you know that? I'm so lucky to have you as my godson and I couldn't have been any happier to get to see you grow.
I'm sorry, I hope you know that too. I truly am. I just... couldn't live with the constant emptiness in me, bud. I feel awful to fake a smile with every visit from everyone. I feel like I disappoint everyone every time I see them. I want you to know that it's not your fault. It never will be so don't feel guilty for not being able to save me or to help me more than you could have done.
All I want is for you to focus on yourself. Live the life your parents didn't get to have. Live the life I didn't get to continue. I want you to be happy. I want you to be with whoever you want to be with happily, without restraint. Be it a boy, a girl, trans, non-binary, all I want is for you to be happy. Take care of yourself. Tell Andromeda that I'm sorry too. She had been amazing to me and I appreciate it.
Do well in your studies, alright? Don't slack off, young man! Don't let McGonagall grow old so quickly because of the pranks you pulled. Make yourself proud of your own achievements.
I love you, Teddy. Forever will. Never forget that. Take care of your grandmother, alright? I'm sorry but I hope you can respect my decision, bub. I need to do this.
Your forever godfather,
Harry.

Teddy wailed in the middle of the Great Hall as soon as he finished reading the letter. "No!" he sobbed, tears streaming down his face like a waterfall, clutching the parchment to his chest tightly. "Harry!"
"Teddy?! What's wrong?" Victoire, Rose, Hugo and Scorpius asked. Headmistress McGonagall silenced everyone sternly as she stood up and walked towards the distraught boy.
"Harry, Minnie!" he hugged the old lady tightly. "He's gone! Harry's gone!"
He showed the letter to her and she read them with wide teary eyes. "No," she whispered as she hugged Teddy back, trying to comfort the heartbroken boy despite herself breaking apart.
Another one of her student gone.
Victoire, Rose, Scorpius and Hugo hugged Teddy tightly as they too cried over the loss of their beloved uncle– except for Scorpius, who didn't know Harry all that well except for the obvious facts that he was the Saviour and a part of the Weasley family, and also that he was Father's ex-boyfriend.
All of the professors, who had been close or had personally taught Harry when he was younger, sat in stumped silence, mulling after the fact that the green-eyed male was gone.

Dear Ron and Hermione,
When you read this letter, surely you would have been back from your holiday and I would have been long gone by then.
I hope you're doing well. I sincerely hope that the baby's well too, Mione. I know that you must've been in disbelief and guilt, crying over my death but I beg you not to. I know it might've been selfish of me to ask of you for that but I don't want you to cry at all.
I just wanted to say thank you after all these years of friendship. Thank you for bringing me into the Weasleys family, Ron. Thank you for sticking up for me and being by my side since the day I met you. I know sometimes we had our disagreements but that's to be expected. Even family and couples fight. So I'm not that shock. Although I had long since forgiven you for that. You are the best of friend that I could have ever wished for and I'm so lucky to have you. You're more than a friend actually. You're my brother. Forever will be.
