Raising Snakes

45. Letter to Lucius

Hi Baby Boy

Oh how I miss you so so much I'm fine and so is the baby I have no clue about your brothers or your fathers and I don't care... oh a butterfly its a beautiful... such a nice pretty blue, pink and yellow... of to research!!!

Oh sorry about that son your father says I get easily distracted as of late due to the baby he says but I don't believe that at all I think I pay attention... well most of the time well back to the last bit I found out what the 'butterfly' was and it wasn't a butterfly it is a Chinese Lunar Moth and I have no idea why it's here but its made its home in my hair I look like I wear a hair accessory as it sits there most of the day and guess what?! it's a female Chinese Lunar Moth she so pretty~

I'm calling her Farrah after your mother and she responses to it as well!!

Your brother Len hates her.. I think he's scared of moths as he won't come close to me at all and it started when Farrah came to me I don't think she would be a familiar but if she does I don't mind I sent a picture with this letter she's just sat there in my hair

Well lets change the subject here before I loose concentration again and you papa has a go at me again as I've set the kitchen of fire twice since the craving, food aversion and mood swings have started 

It was a fun day when they started let me tell you about it son and then you can have a laugh like I did

It had to be the start of October when I woke up in the middle of the damn bad, I hate sleeping in the middle too claustrophobic for me plus you papa and dad like to bloody pin me completely in and so sadly my creature... oh you should of seen it son you wont get yours until your 17 but still!

I have beautiful pure white wings and I can fly did you know Veela's can fly with their wings I didn't until your dad pissed me off by taking my gherkins off me making me cry... oh oh back to the topic again I'm such a scatter brain these days well I have pure white wings and when I'm angry I get long sharp claws, I can slice through things like butter they are so frickin' cool!! oh oh next is I grow fangs like a vampire but I'm not one and my hair... you know I keep it above my shoulders well in Veela form it grows to my knees and I don't know if I should cut it or not.. what do you think?

Will daddy here look beautiful with really long hair that I can put up or go back to having it how it was? daddy likes both styles but daddy here doesn't know..

Why am I calling myself daddy here? Orion is dad, I'm father... I need to speak to Errikos over that....

Oh I'm back again yay! hiya baby oh Errikos says that it's just the hormones making me like this... what are hormones?? ok back to Errikos I go I need to know oh and I don't like waffles!

Yay I'm back again and wow the Muggles know so much about pregnancies it's unreal! here's what I learnt and if you can understand it you're so much better than I am son so here is what I learnt

Human chorionic gonadotropin hormone or hCG. this hormone is only made during pregnancy it is made almost exclusively in the placenta the HCG hormone levels found in the mother's blood and urine rise a lot during the first trimester. They may play a part in the nausea and vomiting often linked to pregnancy. wow I'm a mother so cool right

Human placental lactogen (hPL) this hormone is also known as human chorionic somatomammotropin- no clue what that is but it is made by the placenta it gives nutrition to the fetus it also stimulates milk glands in the breasts for breastfeeding. I'm going to breastfeed I need to find out how if not you father's can bottle feed at night while I sleep after I kick them out of the bed

Estrogen this group of hormones helps develop the female sexual traits- will it happen as I'm male? It is normally formed in the ovaries- I don't have them it is also made by the placenta during pregnancy to help maintain a healthy pregnancy- cool right my body can do all of this!

Again slightly off topic but my body is amazing and your papa got me all of these wonderful books that I've read about pregnancies but they are all for females I know I know I should be grateful and not throw them at your fathers but I couldn't help it I even hexed your dad he is such a bully to me

Sirius is also being mean to me he keeps trying to take my sandwich ingredients off me he's such a bully he keeps saying he wants to try it well he wants to try parts of it and one time he took all my gherkins!! I couldn't have my sandwich which again made me cry... I didn't know I would cry over something so silly but a hug and a kiss from your papa and I'm right as rain

Oh did you know if it rains and the sun comes out at the same time it makes a rainbow? I read that at the end of the rainbow there is gold! I want to go look during the winter...

What should Santa get you Luci? I'm thinking of getting you a cane just like mine but with a snake head in it? what do you think? want to match daddy? oh you would love to match me so much my Little Spark!

Oh Tat just came in with chocolate cake one of my favourites beside my sandwiches or peanut butter, gherkins, oxo cube what ever that is and soil! yep I eat soil kinda like you did when you were a child!

Oh think of names for the baby after Yule we get to know what I'm having or before I can't remember what I'll asked Errikos again he just 'loves' my questions on random things

Bye bye now Baby Boy

Love daddy!

xXx

Lucius looked at the random letter that was brought to him at breakfast and he just didn't know what to make of it he really didn't and he didn't know who to ask about it all as not much was known about male pregnancies in the Wizarding World and he had a feeling there was even less in the Muggle World

He sighed which brought his friends attention Rodolphus took his letter and read over it all and put it down

"What in the world was that letter about it made no sense" he asked

"Father is pregnant and it seems his hormones are all over the place and he doesn't know what to do one minute he is fine, next he will be crying or hexing someone and he doesn't know what to do with himself but he seems fine now give that back I don't want a Gryffindor to take it!"

Before he could take the letter back Molly took it and read it over

"Well looks like the Malfoy line is disgusting a male being pregnant disgusting and a creature no less it's even worse than I thought being with the fake Peverell will curse the families that they are with so sooner or later you will be nothing but a Squib!" she laughed until her brother Fabien and Gideon took her away saying sorry

"At least they have manners unlike their sister" said Joesphina to them as she finished her pumpkin juice "we should all head to Charms" she got up and left
